Give him just a few levels in Tech spec then hold. Now you have a Jedi Gaurdian with mad skillz! I liked Bao Dur, he just needs more convo options you can use for more backstory. A nice cut-scene of you two blowing up the planet would have been nice...

Same guy that did Nihilus's voice...

How about, Bastila Shan vs. Princess Leia vs. Padme Amidala vs. Atris vs. Handmaiden vs. Visas vs. Mira vs. Mara Jade It'll be the pay per view event of the century!

Ahhh, now we're delving into the sweet science of "Revanology". Revanology is where we discuss and dissect every line of dialog to divine the true Revan. Those are some interesting conspiricy theories Ender, too bad there's nothing in Kotor 2 to back it up. Shame too, it seems Revanology also suffers when there are no lines to discuss and dissect...

He didn't rush in to save the queen because he had to keep his cover. If he ran in screaming "get yer hands off mah woman!" he would have been so busted. (and so redneck too!) Heck, you said Kavar was a smooth talker yourself. They were bumping uglies, ya know it!

Very dead Vrook. Very dead Vandar on both counts. If we're talking uber-Luke from the novels then Luke stands a chance. Very dead Rancor. Very dead Handmaidens as my very low-level Exile pwned Handmaiden in sparring all the time. Very dead Zaalbar I don't think Mira is stupid enough to go near a Sarlacc Pit. I'd like to see HK-47 vs IG-88. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I Actually think Luke from "Return of the Jedi" would have a shot. Remember he held his own in a long lightsabre duel with Darth Vader. Vader was the "chosen one", supposedly one of the most powerful Jedi of his time.

They "made" Revan become something when they sent him away. Abandoning the republic and all your friends is certainly not something Revan learned from me. I'm sure there are others here whose first reaction to the news was "my Revan would never do that!" So now that a "significant subsection" of the fan-base is peeved, your cop out can be declared an official failure.

A lot of people have brought this up, but realistically it just isn't going to happen. Creating major changes in a world map based on your character's alignment and/or gender would would double/quadruple the work for each significant location, especially when you take into account all of the character scripting and dialogue... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You can have all the same areas, just populate them with slightly different placeables. Also, one or two NPC's could be different, but a lot of them would be the same. For instance, let's say in LS Dantooine instead of Administrator Adare you get "Administrator Mission Vao". You'd still have the same Zherron, Azkul, Garevick and all the others. These are good reasons why it would have been better to "wrap it all up" in Kotor 2. Then they could have set Kotor 3 fifty years into the future to start fresh with a brand new story.

Ok people, your being a little naive here. Sure, the Jedi council says relationships are the work of the dark side. That has not stopped: Jolee and his Wife, Andur and Nomi Sunrider, Juhani and her "friend" Belaya, Revan and Bastila, Female Revan and Carth, The Exile and anybody of the opposite sex that dares set foot on the ship, Anakin Skywalker and Padme Amidala, Luke Skywalker and Mara Jade. Apparently the Jedi temple is a better place to pick up chicks than most people realize. The queen is single, Kavar's in shape and has a full head of hair. They spend a lot of time together. If Talia is interested she probably wasted no time pulling that old "hold me I'm scared" line. She sure did seem awful reluctant to let him go to the meeting... you do the math!

Like I said at the end of my post, you can pick your Revan as part of the character creation process when you start a new game. In one easy step you've set the gender and appearance of "your" Revan. Then all you'd need is a check box or radio button to tell the game whether your Revan was LS savior or DS conquerer. That's two quick and painless steps. The replay value of the game would have skyrocketed. You'd have to play it at least 4 times to see what happens when: Exile is LS and Revan is DS, Exile is LS and Revan is LS, Exile is DS and Revan is LS, Exile is DS and Revan is DS. The whole concept of squaring off the toon you built in Kotor 1 versus the Exile is kind of neat as well. Also replay value could have been enhanced by having a lot of differences in the world where Revan is LS vs the world where Revan is DS. They just missed out when they copped out and gave some lame excuse about "true Sith". Yea whatever. <_< When they copped out we missed out too...

you're thought of the game as too much action oriented, what I'm saying is that this was never comparable to a FPS in which you fight through hordes of battles to face bastila and then revan. the game was pretty good in my opinion, they just needed to polish off some stuff. Hopefully K3 will be great <{POST_SNAPBACK}> They missed such a great opportunity by not having Revan and Bastila be pivotal NPC's. I'm probably not the only one here who thinks it would have been neat to have a party of Exile, Revan and Bastila mowing down baddies on Malachor 5. It would also be neat to face a darkside Revan and Bastila as a LS Exile. Also as a DS Exile you could betray your DS Revan "ally" for a good final fight. Naturally your DS Exile would have to square off against a LS Revan as part of taking over the galaxy. Additionally, it would have added replay value if the world were modified heavily based on Revan's actions in Kotor 1. If you specify a DS Revan, then "the republic" should be replaced with "the new Empire" and statues of Revan should be everywhere. Also, the "Administrator" type characters you get your missions from should have a distinctly different flavor in this new "dark universe". Imagine being a LS'er and having to find a way to set all this right! Sure there's the problem of knowing what Revan looks like and what sex and alignment he/she is. That is easily solvable by adding a few steps in the character creation process when you start a new game. You simply pick your Revan from the available Kotor 1 models then click a checkbox stating what alignment they are. Problem solved.

I have an ATI Radeon 9800 Pro, and I used to have gamma problems. I noticed that the game would be very "dark" after every cutscene, and I'd have to adjust it in the game. After adjusting the settings using the ATI windows utilities for "full screen 3D color" almost all my problems went away. When I first load the game I have to adjust the brightness first thing. After that though, the game stays bright until the next time I start it from windows.

It's a known bug in the conversation where the handmaiden asks you to lay down your weapons. If you simply say "yes", this happens, and the game is hosed from that point. Take any other conversation choice like "Who are you?", and you'll be fine. You will have to load from an earlier save though.

If your not playing a "semi DS" character, you hear a constant stream of nagging from Kreia while your influence quickly burns away. You never get any influence or praise when your disagreeing with her. The fact that she never doubts that she is right and you are wrong leads me to believe that she does not view herself as flawed. I am on the bandwagon for the "Vrook going to the darkside" conspiracy theory. I think he's ready to start assembling his Sith fleet any day now.

And we all know what that item is! I got a ship full of Jedi's who wield vibroblades through most of the game. There is something seriously wrong with that. I beat KOTOR 5 or 6 times and never used a savegame editor. For KOTOR 2 though, the slow pace of lightsaber acquisiton just drives me to warp some in. Note to Obsidian staff: If your a jedi padawan, you have a lightsaber! Since I want to dual wield, I need 2! I'd pay for an expansion pack that changes the lightsaber quest so you build your lighsaber by the time you leave Peragus. Make it so each time I convert make a Jedi they "magically" build one for their use. Make short saber's buildable at a workbench for us dual wielders. That's all that expansion pack has to do. Of course if you really want to seal the deal you can throw in the droid factory...
