I don't care what teams are "good" or become the next "meta" but are we focusing on legends characters over all the other possible canon options? Lame.
Yes, of course the game isn't canon and they can add whoever they want. I'm sure there are other characters that would be better money makers (if the kits were equal).
There are so many movie characters we could still get. Sion? Visas Marr? Lame...

I think we both understand the reason for it though...
This guys pretty spot on. Plus a lot people at CG are big KOTOR fans
How do background movie characters hold more importance? Perhaps you don't understand the power and importance of the characters that are being released, of the importance they held in their timeline? It's not like characters from the movies are really even modern anyways, as this all occurred A LONG TIME AGO.
These are characters who were insanely powerful and great warriors and Force users, they redefined the galaxy as it is. Less planets exist because of them, the Jedi Order was destroyed entirely (all but one person who wasn't even a true Jedi at the time). Visas Marr helped rebuild the Jedi Order to what it is now. Traya had groundbreaking views on existentialist philosophy and almost brought about the death of the Force itself.
They are important. Perhaps not to you, but I personally feel like people who do not see their importance or do not understand how people could want them simply do not understand the characters themselves or the story that they were a part of.
Just cause movies are first canon does not mean nothing else is important, especially in a NON-CANON game, which you have recognized this game as being such. Canon doesn't much matter, only the cool stuff, that which makes money, and things they're forced to push (Holdo and Rose for example, despite them being trash both in game and in movie)
the story seems really interesting, and i hope we get a trilogy one day of this stuff to canonize it, but until then, is the story from mainly the mmo, the single player rpg series, or books? i would like to put it on my reading / gaming list. @DarthNekros
Single player RPG series is with the Sith Triumvirate. KotOR II, most specifically.
Although they do not actively show Meetra Surik, Visas Marr and gang rebuilding the Jedi Order, that's more specified in the book SW:TOR - Revan.
Yesssssss I'm excited asf for him, it's gonna be awesome, seriously. I cannot wait to combine the Sith Triumvirate finally, with Visas and Sass until Meetra Surik is release and replace Sass with her... it's gonna be amazing
