"Better KotFE & KotET skip" idea/suggestion (spoilers)

[ComradeLarry]

Because I can't post this into Suggestion Box, I'll leave this here:

(Just like said in the title, this contains spoilers for both Knights of the Fallen Empire and Knights of the Eternal Throne)

 

When it comes to both KotFE and KotET (I'll be calling them FE and ET from now on, because it's faster), I didn't like them, and I'm not alone with that opinion. Good thing that there's option to skip them: Reach Level 70 and you can skip into Fractured Alliance or into Jedi Under Siege. But there's downside for skipping both FE and ET: Choices.

Basically if you skip either one, or both, game picks default choices based on the side you're on: the Republic characters will always pick light side options, while the Empire characters will always pick dark side options, no matter what, which can be very annoying to many players.

And of course that one choice in ET:

Spoiler

Do you save Vette or Torian in Chapter 8. In default choices, Republic characters and Sith Warrior will always save Vette, while rest of the Empire characters will always save Torian.

 

So in order to fix it, I have and idea/suggestion:

"Legacy of the Fallen Empire" and "Legacy of the Eternal Throne" missions (I'll be calling them LFE and LET for same reason as above)

LFE opens once you have:

• Completed FE on any character
• You have reached Level 60 with current character you're playing as

LET opens once you have:

• Completed ET on any character
• You have reached Level 65 with current character you're playing as

(Both are in style similar to "Training in the Force" and "Training and Skills")

 

They would go somewhat like this:

Spoiler

In both LFE and LET, the player character walks into a room with group of Scions waiting. They explain how the things work: They will show you potential future events (important decisions from chapters of said story) and your task is to pick one that will happen. They will go through every important decision of every chapter. Once you're done, they thank you for help, player character nods and leaves. After that, player has skipped said story with the decisions they wanted and is awarded some XP and light/dark side points.

 

How's this sound?

[SteveTheCynic]

Nice.  It addresses one point that's really quite important: it avoids giving spoilers for the story, because the two missions unlock after the player has done their bit of the story on at least one character.

And it makes the interaction required to make the choices less obnoxious than most suggestions on this, where you'd have a panel with huge numbers of choices to make.

Fussy: It's not *exclusively* Imp=Dark, by the way:

Spoiler

The Agent chooses to let SCORPIO upload herself into Iokath's network, which is a light choice.
