You might wanna pick up a different game next time...

You know for a moment there, I thought I'd lost you.

You mean like comparing Jodo's posts with those of Calax? 'Cause that ain't pretty... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> and neither are you meta. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yeah, um, stop that, Meta! Why would you be so rude to the poor guy anyway? You know, the really sad thing is that their avatars are completely different, as are their signatures. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> "Anything fits when you're on some drug", John Lennon.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Where did you dig up that old post anyway... :"> The problem lies within two things, one being temptation. It is connected to another, being half the game/plot being stowed away on the ominously slender branches of Kreia's conversation tree. See? Why do I need Kreia's influence anyway? Well, in order to fully enjoy or even understand the game. We all know how unfulfilling this game threatens to be anyway, and giving Kreia limited on-screen time will not help that fact. I'm not a powergamer, I just want the story to be told in an adequately satisfactory manner, not force me to fill in the gaps because I already played it through a couple of times. My main gripe with the influence system, however, is how it was implemented. As someone mentioned above, the influence didn't matter character wise. Like I've said a billion times on this forum, when you play DS and send Handmaiden (with low influence because she's a Nice Girl) to the Freedon Nadd tomb, you have the option of letting her embrace the dark side. Meanwhile your evil Exile kicks Kavar's butt in Iziz, and upon returning to Dxun he meets up with Handy. She says something along the lines of "I was so worried about you!" (yeah, really DS), only to go stone cold again after that conversation. She is still as LS as she'll ever be. That is bad writing. In a good story she would have said "I understand your point of view now, Master" or "You die. Now.". But that whole turn-your-tomb-party-leader-to-the-dark-side was just another unfinished piece of the plot left dangling. Interestingly, that's exactly how my first KotOR playthrough played out! (only I never quite reached mastery on either end of the scale)

You're not wrong there, but if the odd slip off topic isn't allowed the forum will not last long. I can see how this thread is a particular darling, however, and I sincerely apologise for my recklessly conceived spam. Seconded.

Err... K3 needs to get rid of that stupid darkside transition that turned you into a walking corpse when you hit DS mastery. I didn't see Anakin's skin falling off after he murdered all those children. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> While I can't exactly say that I disagree, that is a completely different side of the coin.

KotOR2: The Search For More Money.

Robes with hoods is indeed a must, but also things like having your man getting rid of those timid facial expressions when fully evil darkside. You always end up having a hard time taking your own character seriously. And to Fio: I saw you deleted my post (you probably don't even remember which one by now), but it was just because Calax came in to fulfil all my expectations of how the thread was to continue. I apologise if I came across as a bit gruff.

Please, tell us what this ambrosia is! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Mostly pasta. And caffeine.

Those are all good advice. I particularly like the sound of paying for "visitations", though that whole college-girl business could be a nice start (I'm getting too old already).

I would, but I'm late for bed (I've got a job too, you know).

I admire your dedication in wading through 3 pages of it.

My statz: STR: 19 (and a half, depending on food intake) DEX: 22 CON: At least 20, but I'm unsure on this one, since no one's ever been able to fatigue me. INT: 46 (yep, you read it) WIS: 46 (I never got the difference between those two anyway) CHA: Ask da women Well, there you have it. I'm a talented individual.

I have a problem, and you guys might be able to help. See, I like girls, but I don't ever want to get married and have little kiddies. How to tackle?

You mean like comparing Jodo's posts with those of Calax? 'Cause that ain't pretty...

Well, I guess I'll have to take Ender's word for it and reiterate my mantra "ignorance is bliss".

Yeah, that was NUTZ! But we (I) appreciate when mods are a bit, y'know, out there and allow the occasional spamfest. Not that this is spam per se (it's mostly on topic); it's just that the topic itself is more in the region of... terribly uninteresting.

Heroes III and Jagged Alliance are good examples I didn't think of!

Precisely.

You have to vote whether you voted, otherwise they'd never know who actually voted and who just said they did.

Because it actually remains on topic? If we close all threads, there will be no more threads left to post in. Simple logic, right?

The humour isn't rude so much as it is unfunny.

There is actually every possibility they did, seeing as nothing is to prevent you bringing her down to the Sublevel of the Enclave, where Mr Shinyteeth has found his posh residence.

What point just flew past who now?
