Right, so, if you haven't played this game, you need to. I mean, I'm not going to get into all the logistics and how the fighting and formatting is, because somehow I feel you don't make fanmixes about those things. Possibly I am wrong. But still. But anyway. The characters in this game are so fucking awesome. I mean, Atton's hott and sarcastic and really, really badass. Bao-Dur's mad devoted and also badass and a hardcore mechanic. There's Mira, who's like ... so made of awesome it isn't even funny and is also a bounty hunter. Kreia's a creepy bitch who you really want to just stay in her damn room, except for when you need her craziness to train you. Visas, who has no eyes but who totally wins at life, and is possibly a bit ... special with her devotion. ( ;D ) The Disciple, who's kind of like a little puppy dog but who can also kick some Sith ass, man. Canderous/Mandalore, who might be one of the few Mandalorians I actually like. (So shoot me, I'm not a fan.) The droids, one of whom you keep trying to fix and end up BLOWING UP (just if you suck with machines) and another who's a fucking assassin droid, and makes it clear how much he really doesn't dig you that well. Then there's G0-T0, who is also a droid but a bit more than that and I'm not going to give it away, gosh. [And the game changes, this is the party for the light-side female, if you're a male you get the Handmaiden -- who's Echani and therefore pure hand-to-hand awesome -- instead of the Disciple, and if you're dark side when you hit Nar Shaddaa you'll end up with Hanharr -- a minorly fucking nuts Wookiee bounty hunter -- instead of Mira.]

Then there's all the other characters that don't join your crew. And ... I'm really too lazy to get into all of them, so I'll just do the two hottest. Atris is a Jedi Master who sat on the Council during the Mandalorian Wars, and was totally gay for the Exile felt abandoned when the Exile left to fight. She's also a contrary bitch, because she wanted to go fight too, but held the Order's values in too high regard. So she now hates the Exile for making her feel even more torn. Also for abandoning her for no more lovin's. [I am joking a bit, but if the Exile is male there's rather a bit of subtext indicating that Atris and him had "a thing." I see no reason why it shouldn't carry over.] Then there's Kavar, who is really too sexy to be a Jedi Master so I have no idea how that one happened. But he's all shadow Jedi-y working with Queen Talia on Onderon, which is one of the planets you go to. He's gay for the Exile too, except for the part where he's straight for her.

AND THEN AND THEN. Then there's the bad guys. I mean, there's a lot of bad guys, including, uh, every bounty hunter ever, but the Big Bad Guys. The Sith. There's two main ones for the majority of the game. The first one you run into is rather ... special looking. And by special I mean he is IN A MILLION PIECES and is only holding himself together with his mad brainpower. He's Darth Sion. And he's got a very ... unique outlook on the Exile. Then there's Darth Nihilus, who's ... pretty much just a giant freak. He speaks backwards and he consumes planets for kicks. FREAK.

The front cover is concept art of Atris and Nihilus fighting, which never actually happens in the game but TOTALLY SHOULD HAVE. And the back is the Twin Suns, two Twi'lek bounty hunters who kind of suck. Also Atton's ass. And the worst placement of song titles ever, but that picture's coloring is fucked up, man. The songs vary from point of view, so ... yes! Also Gravity - The Dresden Dolls and Where is Home? - Bloc Party are not on the cover, because I only added them today and I made the cover days ago. So too bad!

And ... now that I've wasted all that time of yours, on to the actual mix.
