I'm a bit confused by this scene. If I remember correctly, you established that this takes place 1 year after the base game. Isn't Rosh supposed to be a Jedi Knight himself at this point?
That's a fair question! I had the idea to have a Jaden vs. Kyle sparring match that did take place in the +1 year timeline I'd established (since a match between those two doesn't happen with the light side ending, as you know!) In doing so, I learnt how to add new buttons to the menu! So, I thought it would be fun to add a few more levels that enrich the original game. Simply clicking "Play" takes you right into the main story of the mod at the Yavin temple, but alongside that will be a list of bonus one-offs like this. The other one that's already been implemented is a Rosh vs. Jaden level, which takes place before Tier 2 in the base game, just like the one this video showcases. 😃 EDIT: This is also why I tried to make a point of showing the original Rosh model/skin combination, rather than my aged edit for this scene. ^_^
@@MagSulJA Ah, I see. That's cool! I didn't even notice that Rosh, and also Kyle has the default skin, but yes, it's a good way of showing that this happens during the events of the base game. Only my attention to detail failed me this time. :D I would say the "vocal flashback" is a bit on the nose, but since the game doesn't have facial animations that could convey his emotion, I guess it is needed for the narrative. This is not a critique, just an observation. :)
@@starlighter93 That's exactly it! I'd prefer to show, not tell, but there's only so much one can achieve with the tools at their disposal. ^_^ I think it works without the voiceover, I'm still on the fence with it, but we'll see. 😃
@@MagSulJA You know, this got me thinking. I remembered Rosh's voice actor was Dustil Onasi in Kotor. I looked through his voice lines and found some that could be used to that effect. Of course, it's up to you if you would want to use it or not, this is just an idea. I've collected those lines here: drive.google.com/file/d/1PI1t330WU_t_67rUaSKOvaF3ksaQ9ui_/view?usp=share_link
@@starlighter93 I'm aware of a few characters in other games Jason Marsden voiced in much the same way as Rosh, so it wouldn't sound too out of place if I were to use clips from them, as you say. I have thought about it - particularly the KotOR examples you mentioned, but haven't committed to any specific content that would require those options yet. I appreciate the support and the link to the resource though! 😃
I like the hand movements the characters make while speaking. Reminds me of Kotor.
I like them too! It just feels more expressive. 😀
