I didn't know it was quite that long before the movies when they arrived, but then again I did read in Wookiepedia that they first arrived some centuries before, when they encountered Mandalorians. They retreated to leave the galaxy, the Mandalorians thought they were crazy, but they didn't know who they really were. It makes them patient being there in the Star Wars Galaxy so long, hiding in the unknown regions, but that also makes them more scary, just knowing all those eras and conflicts when they could have emerged but didn't. Just waiting watching for the right time to properly invade.
More like Urdnot Wrex. Just listen to the stories here and the stories of Wrex aboard the Normandy. Also the character arcs are identical. In 2 he’s reuniting the clans.
Bringing Canderous back in KOTOR 2 as Mandalore was one of the greatest writing choices ever made. If you choose the right dialogue options you can even hear a few of the characters call him Canderous
I swear, as someone who got into Star Wars way back in the 2000s, when I was a kid in Nigeria, these kinds of videos from teh old games really intrigued me🤩🤩 I love pre-disney Star Wars, the lore, the awesome world building and the EU, especially. I actually bought the KOTOR games for my PC after building it last year and I also bought the Lucas era movies, TV shows and EU novels. This franchise has so much cool stuff I have yet to discover.
I feel the majority of the old republic timeline just disregards the disney stuff, there are lots of us that exclusively enjoy this side of star wars, it's romanticized for great reason
@@coreypatton6290 it is through honor and battle that rules them. It’s through combat that they prove their worth gain renown or make their fortunes. The glory of triumphing over impossible odds is what drives them.
Grow up, they didn't steal shit. These stories are still out there. If you need daddy's approval to approceate the stories then they were never yours in the first place.
Canderous Ordo Mandalore the Preserver would become one of the greatest figures in Mandalorian History, he would become the foundation for the rise of the most beloved of leaders among his people Mandalore the Hammerborn, Mandalore the Binder & Aga Awaud Mandalore the Uniter, his teaching would inspire the creation of the Mandalorian Super Commando Codex by Jaster Mareel Mandarlore the Reformer leading the True Mandalorians and lay the foundations for the Mandalorian Protectorate!
@@blacktemplarbrotherlucius1935 Yes that is indeed true, the last true sons and daughter of Mandalore died from betrayal at the hands of the Dar Manda bastards of the Black Watch backstabbers
@@hk1371 You mean warriors that care about children and family and base their lives around honor, like in *A LOT* of Legends stories? Like the entirety of the Republic Commando series of novels.
@HK That's just it, though. We DO see this in the show. The Mando'ade in The Mandalorian are constantly shown to care about the protection of children and are also shown to care greatly about honor.
I remember the Basilisk story and how badass it was then you had to do the same in 2 too bad there wasnt a full cutscene probally due to budget and time restraints. Playing Baldurs gate 3 reminded me of how amazing gaming characters could be written and I think this was peak. Dont get me wrong there are competitors in modern gaming but they cant dethrone this and are few and far between.
Shameless plug, but I also made a video about Jolee Bindo's past stories.

The fact that the yuzaan vong were around this long is astounding.
yes i also shocked at first, i knew the yuuzhan vong traveled the void for millenia but on KOTOR? damn that is 2003 and to think of it 😶
I played this game before I read the books, hearing him mention them is awesome.
holy fuck! how did I never put that together
the far outsiders were biding their time for that long

I can't help but think that Canderous Ordo was an inspiration for the character Zaeed Massani from Mass Effect.
Lol, I mean they were both developed by BioWare so I can kind of see some similarities.
They are both everything I ever wanted to be

@@slobiden.2593 I thought the same
Vode An playing in the background makes his war stories sound epic.

Canderous is the Mandalorian Boba Fett and Pre Vizla could only dream of being…

The ultimate revan fan boy
RIP John Cygan, gone but not forgotten.
Fun fact: Cygan in Polish means gypsy

It's great to hear these at least one person still enjoying the Golden Era of Star Wars.

@@imonke5303 well said
Remember what Disney stole from us. This is a mandalorian
None of that parroting ‘this is the way’ nonsense. This is a real Mandalorian.

@@christianfaux736 Who said we need Disney's approval? They just stole the chance of there being more of these stories.
@@christianfaux736 it’s not like they went out of their way to decanonize the large majority of Lucas Star Wars…. Oh wait
I like how Canderous had such a high opinion of Mandalore, as proud as he is he's happy to admit there are people out there superior to him.
Gotta love Canderous.
@@that_one_guy_named_rami I only wish there was more content about Mandalore. Surely that guy is good for a comic run or a short story or something.
@@codafett I also wish there was more on Mandalore. I would like to see a comic, novel or game taking place during the Mandalorian wars.
One of my favorite characters in KotoR. He stay loyal to you no matter what
He even mentioned in one of his stories the reason why he started following the player (Revan).
Canderous Ordo is the walking definition of a badass

Walking???
More like stomping into a full socialite ballroom…
Damn… what a SHOW THIS COULD MAKE…. DISNEY!!! Looking at you!
Canderous Ordo Mandalore the Preserver would become one of the greatest figures in Mandalorian History, he would become the foundation for the rise of the most beloved of leaders among his people Mandalore the Hammerborn, Mandalore the Binder & Aga Awaud Mandalore the Uniter, his teaching would inspire the creation of the Mandalorian Super Commando Codex by Jaster Mareel Mandarlore the Reformer leading the True Mandalorians and lay the foundations for the Mandalorian Protectorate!
Yeah an the death of what it meant to be a Mandalorian.
@@blacktemplarbrotherlucius1935 Yes that is indeed true, the last true sons and daughter of Mandalore died from betrayal at the hands of the Dar Manda bastards of the Black Watch backstabbers
This game has the best voice actors..also the best game ever ❤️
Second part was great also.
@@grzegorzr.4282 Both games are amazing!
Solidus Snake in his younger days
THIS should have been The Mandalorian
Rather than the mystical space elves theyve made them
@@hk1371 You mean warriors that care about children and family and base their lives around honor, like in *A LOT* of Legends stories? Like the entirety of the Republic Commando series of novels.
@@CloneCommanderCrater1102 Exactly. Rather than the emotionless, wayward speaking, not really showing any care to their own ones we see in the show.
@HK That's just it, though. We DO see this in the show. The Mando'ade in The Mandalorian are constantly shown to care about the protection of children and are also shown to care greatly about honor.
@@CloneCommanderCrater1102 Yes.
I loved every one of his stories, thank you for uploading this
You're very welcome! I'm glad that you enjoyed this.
Canderous is so cool, I low key wish he would've been a love interest option for female Revan.
Unfortunately, in the Revan book, it was revealed he had a wife
Best part of KOTOR
Indeed. I can't imagine anyone else to voice Canderous Ordo, because John Cygan gives an outstanding performance. Rest his soul.
9:02 canderous would do well in the IDF
Ouch.....
Jeez
regrettably true
I want to see Canderous and Urdnot Wrex swapping war stories
Make a fan fic

Honestly I could see Steven Lang playing Canderous. Colonel Quarage from Avatar!
Or fucking Clancy Brown and his deep ass voice
This is what we live for
If Martin kove was still in his younger years he could’ve pulled this character off easily in a live action movie.
Whats the music playing in the background been trying to find it but can't remember what it's called
