Things from Raven that never made it into the final game: cont.

[eezstreet]

There was one thing I really wanted to put in that I pitched, but was never accepted – making your own lightsaber. I wanted a level where a player had to find their own lightsaber crystal, then you’d meditate over it and build your lightsaber around the crystal from parts you have to choose from, so you decide what it looks like, how long it is vs. how powerful, etc. It would have been sort of a minigame and a way to invest you in your character/lightsaber more (and would have possibly been repeated when you had the opportunity to upgrade to dual sabers or a saber staff).

 

 

In addition, I received some additional clarification as to some pics:

 

 

 

 

 

 

Some of those pics are indicative of a missing "prototype" mission. Wanna know why there's a random Jedi Trainer with a red lightsaber? Because the Jedi Trainer was supposedly Tavion at one point, but was changed to be female (I guess Raven decided that the game was a bit of a sausagefest/too many male characters, I kinda agree with that notion)

What? No posts on this?

It's interesting to see what decisions they made against some things in the final game.

True, but for me it's like "huh, would you look at that" *goes on with my day* kind of thing xD I'm not quite sure what to discuss on it

Most of those shots look like early WIPs of Kejim, Doomgiver, & Jedi Temple Grounds.

I share Milamber's point of view.

 

As interesting as it usually is when these kinds of things surface, I often find it a little sad. More often than not, cut content is actually pretty good.

The last pic looks like some crossover of a modern and classic game with that camera view.

I don't think any of those were meant to actually be levels in the game, probably just test maps for game dynamics, jedi trainer was probably using the AI for the reborn before they were even thought up.
