Line 143:

== [[Dark Forces Saga|Kyle Katarn]] is a descendant of Revan, or perhaps even his reincarnation. ==

[[Hey It's That Voice|Same voice actor?]] Check. [[Memetic Badass]]? Check. Also, {{spoiler|neither were killed in their boss battles (though Revan's fate is kinda ambiguous)}}. It may be more than a coincidence...

== By the conclusion of the conflict, the Empire will NOT be totally defeated. ==

Line 149:

== The Republic's victory is not a foregone conclusion. ==

When the time comes for the game to end (and hopefully that's not anytime soon) it won't be a foregone conclusion that the Republic will emerge victorious in the war with the Empire. Instead, perhaps taking a page from Star Wars Galaxies' final hours, instead, the winner will be calculated via [[~~Pv P~~]] victories, or something like that, on each individual server. Servers where the Republic comes out on top will be considered to be part of the "canon" universe, whereas servers where the Empire emerges victorious will instead be labelled as part of the "Infinities" alternate continuities, the Elseworlds of the Star Wars universe, divergent timelines where the Sith emerged victorious. This way Imperial players aren't necessarily always on the losing side and would also make for an interesting [[Twist Ending]]. The Force Unleashed games have already toyed with these Infinities storylines, so it's outside of the realm of possibility that Old Republic might follow suit.
