We also explore Revan's views on the Jedi and Sith and the limitations of both orders. What were Revan's final thoughts on the Jedi and Sith orders and what did he cite as their greatest strengths and weaknesses, also what were the lasting affects of what Revan left behind?

      "The man who became a Jedi, then Sith, and then something more. As a Jedi Revan was a warrior who slaughtered armies, as a Sith Revan was a teacher who trained a thousand dark apprentices. Revan mastered both the light and the dark side, war and peace..... Eventually both Jedi and Sith turned on Revan and instead of being destroyed Revan was reborn. Revan was stripped of power, of memory, of life and left to rot but Revan survived and still relearned the ways of the force." - Dousin Rvanite on Dromund Kaas SWTOR

      the expanded universe- sorry,
      legends did make a story about revan's fate.
      then SWTOR took the ending, skipped 300 years and added more in their reven expansion. ruining the epic, heartbreaking ending in the book.

      I would love to see reven during the mandalorian wars.
      there's a comic that takes place during that war and reven has a few cameos but nothing big.
      Malek has a bigger part in the comic though.
      you don't even know it's Malek though until he returns to the war and in the next shot he's standing beside revan.
      but yeah, a movie or book series that focused on revan would be awsome.
      it would have to be animated though for the best results

    • @kevinnorwood8782
      @kevinnorwood8782 7 лет назад +6

      My idea for an Old Republic movie trilogy is: The Sith Wars (the war with Exar Kun), The Mandalorian Wars, and the Jedi Civil War (which would be split into two movies and cover both KOTOR 1 and 2, and also give Revan, Bastila, and Meetra a MUCH better ending than they get in the book and MMO).

  • @Chalvrek
    @Chalvrek 8 лет назад +236

    I think the idea of what Revan truly was is remarkable. He is one of the only ones of his kind; someone capable of studying the Light and Dark without completely succumbing to the corruption of the Dark Side or the influence of the light. In the end, he wasn't a Jedi, Sith, Dark Jedi, Grey Jedi, or even a Bendu. He was something completely different, something almost indescribable

    There are 3 kind's of Revan.
    The 1st is the light one his name is Master-Revan the Jedi.
    The 2nd is the dark one his name Is Darth-Revan the Sith.
    The 3rd is the final one his name is just Revan the Je'daii.
    They host the same body and share the memories, BUT they are not the same man.

    Great video. Revan is one of my favourite characters in Star Wars, although I admit my opinion is biased because you actually get to be Revan in KOTOR.
    How about a video on how powerful Revan was, and how he would compare to the Jedi and Sith in the movies?

      @AlistairNevis 8 лет назад +6

      I've read his comment a few times and I can't seem to find a problem with his grammar.
      If you're talking about him spelling "favourite" with an extru "u" instead of "favorite", it's not incorrect, since it's the UK English spelling of said word.
      (Other examples of an extra "u" in a word are: colour, armour, favour, saviour, etc.)
      If what I've pointed out isn't what you were referring to, do correct me.

    • @kluang1
      @kluang1 8 лет назад +2

      Revan philosophy is based on Bruce Lee's tea cup. He learns many, take the good and discard the bad and add a bit of his own. His Niman is formless, it has all style yet none at the same time.

    • @bignewsmorgans93
      @bignewsmorgans93 8 лет назад

      capz Yes, I'm from Australia. That's how we spell the word. We also tend to replace z with s, like with words such as prioritise. This is the first time I've ever been called out on it though.

    • @involuntaryanalysis
      @involuntaryanalysis 7 лет назад +3

      Well, the popular consensus is that Revan is on par with the likes of Bane, or Vitiate (hey Vititate won, but Revan didn't go out like a bitch, he held his own, and made Vitiate hurt had it not been for Vitiates use of Sith sorcery, he wouldn't have survived) so, basically one tier lower than Sidious.
      Personally, I think Star Wars fans (most, not all) tend to be a bit biased in favor of Sidious, and Vader. Frankly, I think Revan could definitely take Vader, and I'm reasonably certain he'd kill Sidious, but die in the process.

      pnut eighty-seven As they have yet to release anything to contradict KOTOR, I won't say they just threw him away. I'd go so far as saying "legends" is where he belongs, because everything known about him in the rest of the saga is going to just be a legend.

      @Halloweenman33 8 лет назад +3

      Aside from the stuff that was already out of print, it's not like the old stories were discontinued. They're still around for everyone to enjoy. Besides, everything is canon from a certain point of view (except the Holiday Special. I don't think anybody wants that one back). Both versions happened as part of two different timelines in a pair of parallel universes or alternate dimensions.

  • @shitimbald9901
    @shitimbald9901 7 лет назад +37

    To me, Darth Revan was a much cooler character when it was believed that he took on the role of a Sith and overthrew the Republic out of necessity to prepare the galaxy to defend itself against the true Sith empire. Turning Jedi instead of killing them. Preserving military bases and planets instead of wiping them out. But no, we find out he was just doing someone else's bidding and was actually turned to the dark side. He went from interesting to cliche very quickly.
    Fuck you SWTOR.

    • @formandalore624
      @formandalore624 6 лет назад

      I like to think he did break free of Vitiate's control and the motivation you described is his true one. It would make sense - I have a theory that Revan had the mental strength to free himself more than Malak did which was what led to Malak's excessive destructiveness and the conflict between them (yes it must have been an ongoing rivalry before Malak's betrayal because Revan cut off Malak's jaw at some point). Although... believing that would mean Malak was 100% a victim in the whole thing which is sad #prayforalek2k17

    • @ancientgodxx9932
      @ancientgodxx9932 6 лет назад +1

      It is stated that he did break Vitiates hold on him, so he went on to find the Star Forge with Malak and returned with his grand empire to conquer the republic and prepare them for the True Sith

    I look at Revan mostly as he was ported in the book by Drew Karpyshyn. A force user with unmatchable power. His ability to use both light and dark sides of the force made him unusual to say the least. Only someone like the emperor that had the combined force powers of a planet was able to stop him. Revan in my opinion is the greatest force user in star wars history. 😆

    I do not believe that Revan should be considered light or dark: instead allow him to be remembered as one who didn't shun the force in any way, one who was responsible for some of the most influential decisions in Star Wars, and one who should be respected. Long live the Prodigal Knight!

    No doubt Revan was a skilled duelist and force user, but I suspect many characters would have been on par with his level.
    I think Revan's truest strength was his ability to see the greater picture and his understanding of the Force. His strategic mind, knowledge and cunning is what made him a dangerous adversary, and I would dare say that those said skills would have been on par with Darth Sidious(if not greater, since he basically saved the sith from extinction). Though he would not compare with Sidious in regards to saber skills or use of the force.

He did take Mandalore the Ultimate mask when he killed him, and gave it to Canderous Ordo later. Also Revan and Malak were of the rule of two variety.

    I love that quote. "A man who walks many paths leaves his footprints on many trails". Could definitely be a cautionary line about being careful of the decisions you make and the effects they have on others, because others could see the path you took and be inspired by it, whether it be for good or ill. As for how I see Revan though, I've always thought of Revan as a true Jedi and servant of the light (post his redemption of course). Most would label him as a Grey Jedi, or blank slate as you called him, but to me this isn't true. Revan was what the Jedi should have always been because the way the Jedi often did things wasn't always in accordance with the light and indeed a lot of their teachings wasn't either. The obvious one being the rule that forbids Jedi to marry and have families because of the concern that it will lead them to the dark side. The problem with this is that it is a rule created and enforced purely because of something the Jedi are supposed to be without....fear. Fear is the only reason that rule exists, the order doesn't trust its own members to have the self control and understanding to have a life and be a Jedi. I've always felt that if that rule had been done away with (or preferably never existed at all) no where near as many jedi would have fallen to the dark side. To quote Jolee Bindo: "How to control yourself while your in love, THATS what the Jedi should teach you. But love will save you not condemn you".

    I think Revan was how Kreia described him in Kotor 2: That didn't fell to the dark side but sacrificed himself to get the power to defeat the Mandalorians and prepared his armada to fight the sith emperor in the unknown regions and was brought back by the Jedi council to his old selfless nature after they wiped out his memory and finally found the near perfect balance between light and dark after the exile returned his full memory after giving him his mask...
    ... but then he also got a little crazy after he was sort of killed in SWTOR but again got redeemed as his body and light side spirit were combined and he died finally in peace after his 300 years of imprisonment and torture by the Vitiate

    I love Revan as a character because he was all three: a jedi, sith lord, and gray jedi. He also had a romance and was charismatic, intelligent, and adaptable. I remember playing the Knights of the Old Republic games on xbox and I loved his storyline. I even read a book describing his last adventure and his death. While he was a powerful dark side user I was most impressed by what happened after he turned back to the light becoming a gray jedi. I felt that was when he was at his best.

  • @rotblitzkrieg
    @rotblitzkrieg 8 лет назад +1

    Revan practically defies definition, at least in the terms most would use to describe force wielders. The last time we saw him in SWTOR, he was split in two, but neither half truly seemed to be either dark or light. When he unified himself, he turned to the player character, and gives a short description of their attitudes and actions, describing them as a "fine example." Given that this can be to a pure light side character, or a pure dark side character, the man seems to see beyond any concept of adherence to a strict code. He seems to see the affect a person and their actions have on life itself. That's interesting, too, given that's exactly how Emperor Valkorion seems to see things.

    What I like the most about Revan's character is that he's a tactical genius, has a long term vision and relied on his own strength.
    He didn't use a super weapon but his intelligence to win wars.
    From his studies he knew that Jedi make the difference in any war that's why he created HK-47 cause a Jedi who relies too much on the force won't know HK is an assassin droid until its too late and personally trained Jedi Hunters like Atton Rand who could capture and break Jedi.

  • @fullfrontal2860

    One of the reasons why I love Revan's character, is that I can relate to him.

Something many people could never themselves to.

    #Suggestion: When Darth Vader was first getting repaired after his battle with Kenobi on Mustafar, Darth Sideus instructed the main medical droid to extract his DNA for impregnating a jedi prisoner taken as a clone wars prisoner of war by Count Dooku before he was killed. This jedi was Master Madell Calrissian who was somehow related to Lando Calrissian and she was powerful in the force but Dooku still managed to capture her. Madell later escaped the prison that she was kept at but not before she was impregnated with Vader's DNA. She knew who the father was because the medical droid told her what it was doing to her but the droid said it was from General Anakin Skywalker instead of telling her it was Vader. When she escaped, she moved deep in the jungles of Naboo where she built her home and later save birth to a son she name: Anakin Calrissian. She taught her son Anakin the jedi way and about the force and soon he constructed his own curved light saber after the description his mother gave him of Count Dooku's light saber but his was green bladed. Madell trained her son in 5 styles of light saber dueling that she was an expert in and later Anakin Calrissian became an expert too. He became a very powerful jedi and he was only about a year younger than his half-brother Luke Skywalker. Anakin joined the Rebel Alliance as a tie-fighter and he attacked the empire numerous times until he had a confrontation with Darth Vader who felt a connection to him especially after he heard the jedi's name and put him in a gladiator arena while Vader kept his light saber. While Anakin was in the gladiator cells he managed to sneak enough parts in to build himself another light saber using a red crystal he took off the helmet of a warrior he killed in the arena. He was able to escape his cell with his new light saber and left the planet. He eventually rejoined the Rebel Alliance who was skeptical because now he had a red light saber. Anakin built a new curved light saber just like the one Vader took from him and he gave Luke Skywalker to put in the new jedi museum.After the death of Darth Vader, Anakin Calrissian and his mother joined Luke's new jedi order, but Anakin moved to a planet in forgotten space where he bumps into an old jedi he found out was Master Mace Windu. Master Windu taught Anakin the Vaapod light saber dueling technique as well as shatterpoint and be mastered all of Windu's teachings.

      the idea is that, in order for the sith to thrive and become more powerful, they raise an apprentice to become stronger than themselves, an apprentice that has to overthrow them and in turn teach a force-sensitive of their own. think of it as a sacrifice "for the common good".
      think of it this way: they'd rather raise an apprentice to kill themselves, but also tons of jedi, than let the jedi live peacefully as they're left alone. "blinded by hatred" is accurate in this situation.

  • @MMZERO9
    @MMZERO9 8 лет назад

    A great video!
    To me Revan is someone who was not only endowed with great potential, but he was able to eventually gain a perspective on the Force that only his wife Bastila Shan had, which in a lot of ways allows insight into the true nature of the Force: It's neither light nor dark sides, but both. You cannot have emotion without peace, and you cannot have passion without serenity. This is something Revan and Bastila both came to understand, and they ultimately came to resent the narrow-minded view of their Jedi brethren. One can imagine how they both would feel if they saw what would become of their Order and how low they fell, to say nothing of how The Chosen One was treated by said Order.
    What would have happened if Anakin was trained by Revan-reborn and a redeemed Bastila? One can only imagine...🤔😎

    Excellent video as always!! Now can you please make a video about How Powerful Was Revan? Not just Darth Revan, but also Revan during the Mandalorian Wars; during his final battle against Darth Malak; during his second confrontation with Vitiate alongside the Exile and Lord Scourge; during the battle at the Foundry (where he died like a bitch); and during Shadow of Revan.
    I ask this because ever since The Old Republic MMO was released, Revan's feats seem to have been wildly variable. He was able to defeat Malak even though Malak was continuously Force Draining the power of at least half a dozen near-dead Jedi to buff himself up. Yet when he left Bastila and his child for Dromund Kaas, he was easily outflanked and captured by Darth Nyriss. Then 300 years later, he was easily defeated by the Sith Strike Team at the Foundry. Then some 5-6 years later, his Dark HALF is easily whooping the asses of Satele Shan, Darth Marr, Lana Beniko, The Hero of Tython, among others. Obviously, he was eventually overpowered by Satele & co. But that was just his dark HALF. Speaking only for myself, it really seems hard to gauge and compare Revan's power vis-a-vis other powerful Star Wars characters. So a video clarifying that would be awesome.

    I think the only Jedi to come close to Revan's Balance in the Force would be Kyle Katarn. Katarn was once quoted as saying, "Remember: Abilities are not inherently good or evil; it's how you use them." I think this perfectly embodies his philosophies when it came to Force powers, though much like Luke Skywalker, who had also mastered the basic elements of both light and dark, Katarn walked largely on the side of light. Revan was kind when he wanted to be, and brutal when he had to be, which is wholly different from anyone else in the Star Wars universe.

    I believe him to be the most powerful Sith and Jedi.

Who was them captured by a Sith Lord and was tortured for many years but still held strong. He destroyed Mandalore and took his mask for his own. When he finally died, his dark side took form from his mask and Revan returned to assist in the fall of his dark side and finally become own with the Force. Finding peace.

    I have a theory that Revan's holocron was made not during the Jedi Civil War but maybe during the Galactic War (in the Old Republic game). In game Revan is freedom from centuries of captivity and eventually the light side of him becomes one with the Force but the dark side remained in his body and launched his own war against the Sith Empire and Republic. This is do to the overly dark tone of the holocron, in the Old Republic game the Reborn Revan returns to the Temple of the Ancients, were Darth Bane later found the holocron.

    Im Super happy you did a video about Revan !! I would have to agree that in my book he is a blank slate that served the Force not anything else.

    1:50 I always thought that particular portrait of Darth Bane looks like Uncle Fester of the Addams Family. Laugh every time I see it.

    Stupendous, this just makes me more curious about the Jedi and Sith holocrons. Were they just repositories of knowledge, or did they contain the consciousness of old masters? In addition to being essentially text books, was it always in Legends / canon that they could also be used as keys to access hidden truths (like we recently saw on Star Wars Rebels)? Also what book / comic / game / whatever were holocrons first mentioned?
    Thanks for a fantastic series of videos! I like it when you say "have a great day" in the end, because I tend to watch these videos first thing in the morning.

    I always interpreted revan as the ultimate gray jedi, using the strongest aspects of both sides of the force, yet compromising to neither. There's one book i read (I cant remember which one but it tells the story of what happened when revan went back into unknown space to search for the evil he sensed) and revan had left the dark side of the force, married bastila, and was sitting comfortably on the fence of the light and dark.

    the lightsaber scene in TFA was the force vision ability that Vos had in the clone wars therefore it showed places the lightsaber had been and possibly where it would go in the near future.

    One thing I've wondered about Revan, Was his knowledge of the dark side entirely his own or was the philosophy taught to him. If his insight into the dark side was entirely his own then that is "Impressive, most impressive indeed."
