1.738 million unit sales of The Force Unleashed across all platforms made it the third best-selling game globally in the third quarter of 2008;[122] as of July 2009, it had sold six million copies.[27] The Force Unleashed was both the fastest-selling Star Wars game and LucasArts' fastest-selling game

Because the player embodies him and thus projects a character of his own making, if not themselves directly, onto him. This creates an emotional attachment.

No. My best guess is Saber Interactive is making 3d assets for the game while trying to figure how the fuck they want to adapt it. They probably are presenting pitches to investors and Lucasarts if they aren't already working on the final game. Best case scenario? Release date for Q2 2027

>That third game would cast you as "the Exile" and allow you to track Revan's path.
"Whether you encounter him or not..." he pauses, wary of spoilers in case the game ever happens in the future. "The idea was that even before the 'modern day' Sith came into being in The Old Republic ... there were even more distant Sith Lords that were considered the true Sith, and the idea that they were still lurking out there in the galaxy waiting for a chance to strike, kind of like the Shadows in Babylon 5, I thought would be a cool finale for that Old Republic trilogy.
>"Part of the fun with designing them," he adds, "was if you have these incredibly powerful Force users and they have their whole hidden domain out in the distant reaches of the galaxy, what would that Sith empire really look like at the hands of these things?
>"If they could shape entire planets or galaxies or nebulas, and they had all these slave races at their disposal, how cool would that be, to go into the heart of darkness and you're the lone Jedi and/or new version of the Sith confronting these guys? What would that be like? I thought that would be pretty epic."

That's what I thought, that there were still Sith with ties to the ancient lords of Korriban with territory somewhere isolated far from Republic space in the Outer Rim, which is what Revan discovered during the Mandalorian Wars. Swtor almost did a good job of expanding on this, but then they went and really fucked Revan's shit up good.

I said almost, Anon. However, what's needed after KotOR 2 is a good villian that works either from a Jedi or Sith perspective, and they achieved that with Tenebrae who was written so it made sense that Revan would see the need to appose him. Just because it didn't fall in line exacly with what was originally rumoured to happen doesn't make it automatically bad.

Given he killed both Mandalore and Yusanis in single combat honour duels and then beat Malak via lightsaber, he was either a guardian or peak muscle wizard.

Nothing in the lore implies the combat was physical or "honorable" in any way, he could make them do a polka dance and then drop a giant boulder on their heads for all we know. In fact, we know nothing about pre-amnesia Revan's physical feats other than the fact he was capable of wielding a single lightsaber (as per his own dreams)
>and then beat Malak via lightsaber
Stun > chop off the jaw. It's not like non-Guardians can't wield lightsabers.
>there’s no way the mandalorians would have respected him just bitch slapping their leader to death with the force
What matters is that he killed their leader, Force or not. And Mandalorians respected his strategical skill first and foremost.

Again, it was never about the Force. Main reason mandos respect Revan is because he stood up to them, brought the Republic army back in shape, went on to gave them a throrough ass-whopping and then humiliated them further by stripping them of their armor and weapons and exiling them. They respect strength, even if they don't understand or respect the Force.
