I love how they keep Revan's gender nonspecific, as well as allude to "Revan's decisions ultimately sealed the fate of Bastila" and so on, without actually commenting on what that decision was, or what the ultimate fate entails.

Not that I'm complaining.

Honestly it's pretty cool that they acknowledge the game.

As for those bits...more because I say they don't know how to express it. Though it's funny, several times in the game during either gender dialogue they refer to Revan as a man(Canderous does this at least twice)
MM /CF/WG/BOTM/JL/Original Warsie/ACPATHNTDWATGODW FOREVER!!

Sometimes we can choose the path we follow. Sometimes our choices are made for us. And sometimes we have no choice at all

It's been awhile since I played it - did Canderous know Revan by face, or was he just referring to 'The Great Revan, who must Surely be a Man'?

It's never said IIRC. IT also depends on fact did Revan wear his(/her) starforge robes during the madolorian war if so Revan would seem genderless to anybody did look at him(/her). So Canderous would probaly think that Revan is male.

Pretty much but he and Juhani refer to Revan once as a guy each.

It's easily dismissed as editor mistakes gien all the other times they use gender neutral when needed.

So does this change the canon status of Knights of the Old Republic ?
I have to tell you something everything I wrote above is a lie.

Not one damn bit.

Really it just means that the Databank people decided to finally get off their duffs and update the damn thing. :P

Just means people acknowledge as the story as official level.

Doesn't make it really any higher or lowewr then what it was before.

To be fair, it's actually the Databank person. Pablo Hidaglo writes all of the databank entries, along with taking care of a whole bunch of other SW fan club affairs.
