  1. Yeah, i was under the impression that it had a defence penalty. and does the critical strike have a penalty? because i didn't think so, and if not, then one should use critical strike all the time... but normal attack still works better than flurry for me. i am so unlucky with my to-hit ratio.
  2. *head perks up* Hmm? a messenger of bad news? STONE HIM!
  3. I heard that Korriban was kind of a final add-on to the game. is that true? and if so, then i think they did a really good job on it with the cave
  4. Like Vashanti said, Visas is a woman undone. Her planet and all she cared about was destroyed and she is a forced apprentice/slave to Nihilus. She had no reason left to live and went to find the exile, but because the exile spares her after the battle, and because she sees the exile as a reason to live, then it makes sense that she is always in servitude and ends up loving him.
  5. Basically i think it was foolish for the kings to decide to cruscade for the Holy Land. It's just land and doesn't do anything special. but they may have thought it would give them prestige or special favour with God, or maybe the cruscades were just a conspiracy and they just wanted the large amounts of oil for their failing economy
  6. But didn't the Pope commission the cruscades? as for christians looking bad, yes, it happens a lot... *looks at self and pauses* you don't mean me do you? On topic: movies movies... um... i'm not much of a movie guy.
  7. But i know we both agree that the cruscades made the Christians look bad, and the Romans had Gladiators. I wasn't really being specific in names or anything.
  8. I just saw Kingdom of Heaven a couple days ago. The story shows a lot about how Christians totally lost credibility by going on the cruscades and killing "infidels". my favorite theologically incorrect quote in the movie was from a young catholic monk, "To kill an infidel is not murder, it is the path to salvation." lol, such bad theology for a Christian. I enjoyed Orlando Bloom's character because he looked past his illogical priests/advisors who were spouting out blasphemy and instead he focused on being rightous and benevolent. Surprisingly, it was a emotional movie for me, even though i felt that it slightly lacked in the romance department. i don't know how you could make that better, it must be hard to write romance well, but i thought it was good enough for what the movie is, and it complimented it. The Muslim main character i thought was generally a nice guy from what was shown. In summary, you should watch the movie if you already haven't, but make sure you don't go generalising Christianity solely because of it, and even Islam for that matter. It's more of a historical fiction, so keep that in mind. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Good thing one of us did That movie was as accurate as Gladiator, it was enjoyable, but largely false. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I was simply saying that the cruscades made Christians lose credibility, and the movie had cruscade type elements in it. largely false meaning none of it truly happened, but it was based on real events. Yeah, if i am totally wrong though and the cruscades to retake Jerusalem never happened, then please tell me. Historical fictions are still somewhat historical, otherwise it is just fiction.
  9. Sorry man, Pixie's trademark saying is one of a kind, you can't have a successful variation of it IMO. But (+5 influence points) for making me laugh.
  10. "I will wait to see the reactions of the gamers who will purchase it immediately after it's apparition!" funny wording, luke77. I chose the second option like most of the other people did. i like K1 and K2 and i will probably like K3 if it is made

  12. For suspense and plot-twist reasons: there is revan in K1, there is Kreia in K2, and for K3? They are all taken... so lets just take plot-twists from a few different stories and put them together. Okay, so we have from the sixth day, then we take the Sphere by Michael Chrichton where you have the fact that , then you have MGS2 where the patriots are . Ah, oh, so you all looked at those and thought you'd be able to see the plot-twists that made the stories good? haha, i wouldn't ruin them for you just like that. because if you already knew, then you know what i am saying in the spoiler tags, and if you don't know then you shouldn't anyway. Alright, we put them all together and we get: um... . well, i guess i just ruined the stories by saying that, but you won't know which one goes to which unless you've went through two of them.
  13. I liked Samurai Champloo, but i didn't realise it was so lacking in a main story... it's probably because i am satisfied storywise by watching the characters interact with a certain situation, learning, and then moving on. But the fight scenes were high-caliber and the art was fantastic, it had its own unique style which i think sometimes gets lost when people make anime and it all looks exactly the same.
  14. i hope he doesn't do Kotor... whoops, isn't that word banned in the WoT section?
  15. Visas for sure. Bastila will win... which disappoints me, but not really. Visas' character was gentler and more resolved than Bastila's. She was more introverted than Bastila too, and i like that. She also truly loved the exile whereas Bastila has to be coaxed into it and then she still goes darkside (shows her weak personality. if she was a real jedi she could take a force-created cyanide pill or something like that and kill herself before Malak got to torturing her). It did frustrate me that the romance could have been more complete with Visas, but at the same time, the romance with Bastila was cheesy at parts, somebody around this site has a sig with a parody that made fun of that. I also think Visas would win in a fight because i just like her better, oh, but objectively? um... i can't tell. She is programmed to be a two-bladed/blades wielder and so is Bastila. Both are sentinels, but we all know that sentinels in K2 are the best class out of both games. in K1 LS you have a fight with DS Bastila at the end of the game that is fairly difficult, but you can't compare that to Visas' fight because she was tortured and weakened or whatever by Nihilus. I liked Visas before i found out her voice-actor was Kelly Hu, now i like her more (i know its a video game guys, shut up and look what website you are on). The eye thing? i don't know, she is pretty good looking other than the fact that you can't see half her face, and bastila is all around good looking. In the looks department, they are about the same i guess, but i revert to the character and voice-actor, so i like Visas better.
  16. flurry always seemed to me like it took my stats and pooped on them. i never hit and it does little damage. therefore i always use critical strike, seeing as it doesn't penalize your stats, or does it? the only bad thing about critical strike is that it has one animation. and when one such as me uses it over and over, that animation gets boring. however, Kotor 1 and 2 have the best fighting system i have experienced in an RPG to date.
  17. that's good to know, because you could take five extra seconds and vary that with 3 extra seconds and .3 seconds between each keystroke
  18. Why are you sure it is him?Ender Wiggin is the main character in a popular book that seemingly many people would use as their alias on a forum. Is he from germany? do the writing styles match?
  19. maybe you could've thrown in a lesson on responsibility and self-control too? poor kid. games are fun, but i hope it doesn't ruin his life.
  20. I was actually picturing yours as kayaks or canoes. Not quite the introvert anymore? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Introverts do not have to sail alone, y'know; just have a good relationship with someone ... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I think he meant that he imagined your ship to be less showy than a yacht, not insinuating that you couldn't have a relationship if you are introverted.
  21. I remember that one. I hated it because it was so theologically incorrect. You had to collect sheep. WHY WOULD NOAH BE RUNNING AROUND THROWING ONE TYPE OF ANIMAL IN A FENCED AREA AND DODGE THE GOAT!?!? it was much more boring than other games like mario at the time. I always thought a fun game would be to role play king David from the old testament. It would be an RPG where you start as a normal sheperd in the house of Jesse, and then become annointed by samuel, then kill goliath, then escape from Saul, then become king and ransack opposing kingdoms with the help of God. And you could make it more fictional by having dialogue options that take you different places than David went in the Bible, or for example you would refrain from having an affair with Bathsheba and killing her husband. You could have stuff like Holy points and Sin points. lol, jk about this whole thing.
  22. Don't worry, you are not the only one to be unimpressed
  23. i would rather be painfully decomposed alive by ravenous flesh-eating maggots than let somebody turn me into a stone that they'd wear on a ring "Like the memory of a loved one, a diamond lasts forever."
