I absolutely love R2-D2. He's so full of personality! And also one of the only characters to appear in all of the trilogies. (The Skywalker Saga should actually be the Palpatine vs R2-D2 Saga.) He's also spawned some really excellent droid characters when people want to rip off the "Jedi and his Droid" setup he had with Anakin and Luke – T3-M4 is a bit bland in the original KOTOR, but grows excellent in KOTOR 2, and T7-01 from the SWTOR Jedi Knight story is amazingly heartwarming. He is impossible to hate. I once accidentally picked an option that made him sad and had to ESC out of the conversation and redo it.
One idea I'd like to see done someday is a game where it looks like you're the Jedi Knight with a droid sidekick ... except that no, the droid is the protagonist and you, the Jedi, are the sidekick.
In non-droid-related things, I banged my head against Depa Billaba's age and came to the conclusion of time travel. Also, fun fact: Mace Windu and Shmi Skywalker are the same age!
