And while he one of cinema's greatest villains of all time, Vader is a weak character in Fallen Order. They are instruments of war or avatars of imperialism devoted to conquest in the name of the Dark Side. Most Star Wars villains, particularly those in the new canon, are modeled after Darth Vader. And he is an excellent example of why Respawn should continue to draw inspiration from the KOTOR franchise for Fallen Order's follow-up. Of that trio, Darth Traya frequently garners attention as a compelling, complex, and nuanced antagonist, but in terms of raw intimidation, she cannot compare to Darth Nihilus-the masked Sith Lord of Hunger who graces the game's cover. One victory was the introduction of a trio of villains who are still regularly discussed in the Star Wars fandom: Darth Traya, Darth Sion, and Darth Nihilus. Despite the brief development cycle, it not only satisfied fans' expectations, but exceeded them in certain respects. Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords released just over a year later.
