** [[FlatYes Yes.]] Well played as your Devil's Advocate is, the problem is that the problems with the book don't even *remotely* come close to stopping with Revan's issues. The book gets very, Incredibly basic issues like the whole "Force/life eatig/Void in the Force" problems wrong, since apparently we're supposed to believe the walking wound in the force that is the Exile (who fought a BLACK HOLE in the force like Darth Nih) apparently has no familiarity with the concept of siphoning off the power of the Force from other things. Nevermind the fact that to the game fan, the Sith Emperor being effortlessly able to brainwash Revan and Malak comes out of nowhere and isn't even hinted at in the previous games, and so comes out looking rather like an AssPull. Nevermind the fact that Drew had a golden chance to give the Exile and Scourge an awesome scene, where Scrouge asks his question about the nature of the Emperor to ''someone who draws her power from almost the exact same source as the Emperor does but Remained With the Light'' and instead he just blew it, mutilating the Exile's character even further. Again, I could give the explanation about Revan a pass if that were the only problem, but the fact remains that the book is such a hack job that would be wasted. Good Devil's Advocate, mate, just that this isn't really "forgivable" material.

Added DiffLines:
**** On the light side path (re: the canonical one), Revan ALSO convinces Zaalbaar of holding to the Wookiee concepts of honor. Would the Wookiees respect Zaalbaar if he were to abandon his life debt? Particularly since Zaalbaar is apparently also meant to eventually take up the mantle of being their leader in the future - if a leader sets an example, what example is Zaalbaar setting by not honoring the life debt, the most solemn vow a Wookiee can make?
