I read somewhere, that Disney was thinking of using the old republic for a movie or show.
Well i certainly hope so ... fans (myself included ofc) are beging for that for almost two decades.

But im also quite sure that when Disney talks about Old Republic they mean era, not a game.

Even tho they may want to use Revan ... i believe his name was teased in ep. 8 or 9 ... one of Sith ships there was named after him.

Especially the people, who played KOTOR are pissed.
To be fair tho ...
Most fans would be pissed anyway, bcs main reason for that was that they made Revan their Idol ... (wich by the way was HUGELY supported by Drew Karpyshyn's book).
And just the fact that their beloved character wich was allways (except when plot needed it ofc) pictured as so strong to be seen by many as almost flawless and unbeatable ...
Was out of sudden supposed to loose ... against bunch of nameless nobodies on the top of that ... was simply too much for his legacy to hold.
Same thing happened to Illidan during Black Temple raid, back in Burning Crusade ... but Blizzard was smarter than BioWare and they added to loot Warglaves of Azzinoth ... the most epic weapon WoW ever seen.

So even hardcore dans of Illidan as my little not-so-humble self ... were killing him every week.
True ... all that fame and glory faded a bit when everyone was wearing them ... but that feeling when you finaly looted second one was worth it.
Funny when i think about it that Blizzard managed to achieve the same with Ashbringer during Legion expansion ... but never give people option to wield their own Frostmourne. O_o
And Revan isn't even a big part in it, it is literally only one storyline. It would have been enough, when at the end of that storyline, the guy, who said , he is Revan, turned out a fraud.
Im sory but what are you talking about now?
Revan as far as i know was central theme of whole expansion .. for almost two years everything in the game was about him. O_o
