Since I haven't played Kotor1 can't really judge those characters, but from the pics/fan art, I'd still prefer Atton. I like clean-shaven over facial hair. I wonder if you can use a lightsaber to shave. That'd be...manly. Or foolish. Or both. *wink

Guilty as charged.

Nal Shad is really frustrating because if you don't do things in the 'right order' you miss out on a lot of the quests, or whatever. I think some of them you can come back later to finish, but it's still annoying to be in the middle of something, leave an area to try and finish that something, and suddenly be whisked away to deal w/the Exchange etc. It took me a long time but I did finally figure out the best way to progress for my own playstyle. Barely. I manage to get 3 lightsabers and Atton to Jedi and most of the quests I cared about done.

And that's why they needed Anakin to 'bring balance to the Force'. As they say sometimes - be careful what you wish for... heh

I'm not good enough/fast enough to fare well in MP strategy, otherwise I'd like them more. :/ I agree about the AI of computer opponents - even if it's pretty good, it's still predictable after a time, unlike the human mind. I think RPG's are difficult MP wise because of they way they're generally written these days - having to make a decision about a quest, say, or how to answer an NPC - where the group has to come to an agreement about how to handle such things before doing it. It's easier to do that over a tabletop face to face, or alone, than over the net, or something.

Of those choices, I'd go for the lightsaber too. Never need matches or fear hungry bears while hiking again!

I just had to come back to this thread and mention how much I love this cutscene. It's so dark....with Atton standing in the shadowed doorway for long moments, just staring at Disciple's back as Disciple is meditating alone. Then the way he strides into the room saying "That's where you're wrong." It really makes me wish, even more, for that story-arc of Atton fighting Disciple. I can picture it in my head...all dark and gloomy and....sigh

I had a real struggle to play Darkside, since I'm usually such a goody-goody - or at least neutral - in games - I was determined to do it for the first playthrough tho. I ended up liking it immensely. Playing Light is fun too, but it does feel less satisfying somehow - alas, Atton looks much better while Light....fortunately, since I don't care about the Mastery bonus, I can do both - play Light and still be mean on some of those quests that are fun to be mean with. :D

Possible spoiler: 2nd Edit - sorry, I didn't think about this being the non-spoiler forum. Added spoiler tags just in case.

Occasionally playing multiplayer with a few friends is fun...but I'm not very into the concept of MMRPG's either (money's not the issue for me). Every single one I've tried, I end up going off by myself, refusing all the "Party? PARTY?" requests, and play until the game becomes too hard to go it alone and quit. heh I like having the MP environment, where things change, patches are loaded all the time etc,, and there are people around if you want to play with others, but most MMRPG's mostly 'force' you to play together and that I don't like. Something in-between would be nice.

Did you try all the mods for Morrowind? There's a ton of them... But yeah, agree with the others....you've tried most of the known good ones...

OMG that had me rolling.......!!

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?
