OK...here's the answers. A = B = C = D = E = F =

That's an interesting discovery. I suppose that makes sense...never would have thought of it myself. Thanks for sharing that. Makes me think of...some strategies...

This is another case where I didn't find the character annoying so much as the battle-cry. That whiney growl he makes with every hit or when talking or whatever....killing all the guys before letting the Exile out, I nearly went insane from that noise.

The comabt animations, and to some degree, the NPC AI. It wasn't perfect, they'd get stuck and stuff, and occasionally dash miles ahead of you, but it was a lot better than what I usually see of AI. I don't play many action games, so maybe it's graphically old hat to most, but their reactions to battles, movement wise, made them seem more 'real' to me somehow.

Certain NPC's just are programmed to give LSP for influence, a few others DSP. Can't change it. Atton's a funny duck...kind of a LS guy yet you get influence for killing 'innocents'. Hmm... Basic strategy is to try and turn those you want to be Jedi as early as possible - maybe even by not finishing a planet's main plot quest before heading to another to pick up an NPC you want (Dantoon & Nal Shadda mostly) and try not to do all the DSP quests until they're Jedi. Then run around doing Dark things/main plot to catch up.

I've tried using Hanhar, T3, Bao, Mira, and HK, usually by re-loading and re-doing planets with them, say...but in the end I always go back to Atton and Disciple. I kind of agree that the NPC's are largely for company...and thus, I use who I'm attached to. Plus, for the female Exile at any rate, it seems to me that using Atton/Disciple gives the most dialogue bits. ie, so far only Disciple makes any comment when you find those 'dark force' spots in the Dxun temple - and he also comments at the entrance of Korrigan temple (Bao does not, I tried heh). Maybe the Handmaiden is like that if you're male?

Yeah, I wasn't sure how to go about posting the answer. I guess I can put it in spoiler tags so people can look or not as they please. heh Anyway, I'd seen other posts on other forums of this sort, and thought it might be a fun guessing topic. I couldn't do eyes since Visa's has that veil on...and I don't think they were quite as distinct, either. I'll post the answer a bit later. PS - the color of the noses isn't a good indicator...depends on the lighting of the spot when I took the screenie.

Don't know how interesting it actually is but thanks.

I like the Sith guys in Korriban temple - mostly cause I always go there last, so they have a mildly decent amount of HP's for my NPC's to have easy fun practicing their lightsaber moves on, while I stand back and get to watch. The fact they pop out of stealth on top of my guys as I Speed past 'em adds to the fun. But I suppose they aren't really critters...

When you finished the quest did you actually get the powercell or just let him walk off.

So delete it and move it then.

I can believe that some of it was cut 'as a movie would be,' particuarly reaction type dialogues, but the ending is just so damn choppy/nonsensical (ie the remote/Goto bit) it's hard to believe that at least the ending was not cut for time reasons, or something. "sidestepped accusations" indeed.

I admire the fact every NPC humanoid nose is different. Bao's tatooed/lined nose is too obvious so it's not included. Probably not too hard anyway...but I was bored. ---------------- Who's nose is whose? (the answers are in a post further below) (the choices:) Atton - Visas -- Disciple -- Handmaiden -- Kreia -- Mira A B C D E F

Every time I read these kind of threads, I find myself glad that I haven't played the first game and therefore can enjoy (or not, if it had turned out that way) KOTOR2 on it's own standing. Anyway, game has bugs (not that I've experienced most of them - and I've never played a game that had 0 bugs or didn't give some people problems), has a chopped up ending etc. but I still love it. I have no bias about the SW universe/history, LucasArts, Obsidion, or Bioware. I just like the game as a fun and goofy way to waste my spare time. Anything else takes things in a direction that I consider to place too much importance on something that's just mild entertainment, like seeing a movie. It is good to see people have such fervor tho - if only more people would put that kind of energy into campaigning for other things...like politics and medical, education and housing issues. Er...yeah...I'm rambling.

When I first started playing, I thought he was the cutest thing, with his dwoos and beeps and the head movements he does when looking around. I want a T3 robot toy to freak my cats out with.

Sigh...poor hubby. T3 always gives me spikes if I need them. Guess he likes me better. *wink

It is better at 1600, but still a little too obtrusive. I also would have liked it to be a bit smaller. I often feel as if I'm missing half the action with the big attack-options bar going over people's faces and bodies, sometimes, as you swirl the camera angle around.

My husband is on Dxun, and he wants some computer spikes. He only has 3 on him, and yet T3 won't give him any more. T3 is supposed to give up to 10 or 11 isn't he? What's the problem? Bug? Hubby has his influence with him pretty much maxed etc.

Yeah, his portrait is terrible, I'll agree with that. And yes, his teeth are a bit too..large? or something...and his cheekbones are a little odd...oh well, it's not his face I like so much anyway. I don't actually like Atton's portrait a whole lot either..I don't really pay attention to those - just like them moving around in-game. Atton's a peach, but he does needs a chiorpractor (sp?), cause his neck is always at this slightly twisted angle...looks funny sometimes.

@ stoffe -mkb- Thanks a lot for info that led to me getting to see more of the cutscenes! Amazing how little things like that can make the game feel a little more sensible....not a lot...but a little. --------- @ AlanC9 - maybe more times than one would play, if a player tends to stick to one kind of behaviour regarding NPC's. Not sure I would have seen those on my own.

Atton's #1 but at this point I'm almost equally enamoured of Disciple, although in a different way. Yin and yang maybe. I don't understand why people think he looks so old. In his mid to late 30's maybe. Trust me...that's not that 'old'. Funny too, because I think Atton is supposed to be older than Disciple. At least, he sure calls him 'kid' a lot in that cut dialogue. Guess Atton's got a baby-face. :D

Definitely a different experience than the Dark path. Especially in regards to 'saving' Onderon - not as much to do, felt like - it was more fun to be evil for that quest, IMO. But Light was much easier to maintain a constant Mastery - it never dropped once I got it, and I didn't sacrifice much to keep it so. The ending is even less satisfying to me as Light than Dark, for some reason. Although you do get the bit with Mira (which I didn't know about), which is more than you get if Dark - but of course that emphasized the incompleteness of the cut story even more, to me. And I disliked what Kreia has to say about Atton on the Light future dialogue -" nothing to offer me!" Bah! He has plenty to offer............. But her bits about Disciple were more pleasant to the ears... So to sum up - generally I find the Dark side more entertaining to play. But I did like the dynamics of my fave NPC's better on Light so I'll probably have to play Light again. Oh yeah...and I liked being Mira during the confrontation between her and Hanhar on Nal Shadda a lot more. But then she languished in the Hawk, till the very end, where I had to level her up 20 levels at once while Hanhar was paused in mid-kick.

Yeah...you can have them help you, too, if you run around the ship so Visa's chases you. It's quite amusing.

In the Onderon palace, Master Kavar apparently couldn't kill the 2nd of the two soldiers that he runs up to when you reach the Queen. The soldier, instead of dropping in 2 hits like he's supposed to, achieved immortality by staying at 1HP forever. The cutscene returned control of the camera to me, and Kavar was still Power-striking away at the guy - and continued to do so for long minutes - while I went out to smoke a cancer-stick and get a soda. When I returned, he was still at it, and continued even after I moved forwad to trigger the Queen's swordplay cutscene (I could hear his saber buzzing behind me) and during my defeating of...er...whatever the Queen's enemy name is. He did finally break off, to talk to me, however - and that soldier still stood, in the 'I'm hurt bad' position. Some 'Master', huh? Can't even kill a lowly meatbag.

Perhaps Disciple does something when he goes back to Khoona on Dantoonie, during your defense/non-defense of the place, if you're male? And I never got that scene w/Atton reporting etc. either. Maybe you need to have low influence w/Disciple & high w/Atton to get it. (and I always enter/reenter to trigger scenes...)
