  7. more dreadful: due to vast Communist conspiracy (which is nowadays carried out by China isntead of deceased USSR) quality of precious bodily fluids of average american agent has been steadily decreasing for decades. This means each time Thorton has sexual encounter with woman he has 45-75 % chance off permanently losing some of his physical attributes and sexual frustration too which can be piled up up to point it emerges as special negative perk that enforces Thorton to go through psychopathology. This in turn can only be funded by doing various difficult missions for the questionable underground psychiatrist. Imagine the choices and consequences! Either you get all the use from the women and get this severe thread OR you get nothing which is relatively harder AND safer option. Then we could tie in mission where you infiltrate Chinese Communist Poison factory in hope of finding cure!
  8. I just realized what kind of huge dangers can affect Thorton due to his behaviour. I say we must get some proper traits if he chace these women in AP. And like in Fallout they should have negative effects too (preferrably placed on general outlines of my link) C&C baby

  10. Rather interesting though that's barely anything more than robot with Bioparts. There's world of difference between consciousness, decisions, mental noise etc. and basically building network from organic matter. (alo rather good note towards the philosophical zombie problem) The really interesting bit is about neurons re-networking themselves, but that's nothing new.
  11. That's exactly the point. It would be awesome to have great combat in RPG first time in many years... Is Alpha Protocol supposed to cater specifically to the "real players" and the "hardc0re"? I do not mean for it to have a 'win button' I assumed that it would be a "Very Easy-Easy-Normal-Hard-Very Hard-Hardc0re" setting sort of thing. I just wonder how they'd actually make it without breaking game's combat as a whole.

    Communist party is today about is nowadays as hegemonious as party consisting of private owners, party loyals, farmers, officials etc. can be. It is entirely different deal than in 1980's. The voting situations aren't anymore simple Yes-No questions with everyone agreeing.
  13. the **** you're even alive then? You should be scavenging the world to get loot and rape other people's wimminz instead of waiting someone to ****ing shoot your brains on the computer screen. In fact it should've happened already
  14. SUOMI PERKELE That is all

    lolwut? How one "fakes" fireworks?
  16. Wouldn't this break game's combat however? You get whining from hardc0re roleplayers about MotB being too easy but if you visit MotB boards you'll see topics with desperate gamers trying to beat some fight. If you start to incorporate "suitable easy mode" to gameplay mechanics you have great chance of creating Win Button. And I'd rather have for first time since IWD's good combat in RPG The dangers are real unless they make something like this: Brutal & Masculine - Very Hard - Hard - Normal - Easy - Very Easy - For Co-ordinately Handicapped - Win Button" And isn't this argument that everyone should be able finish the game the same argument "real players" nowadays sneer so much at? Yep if it is an "Action" game like Mass Effect that works for me. Well, ME's realtime combat isn't any good

    I blame GTA and bad Hollywood comedies!
  18. mkreku can only blame himself for choice of words and construction of the post "pretentious" is worst buzzword ever that is used to label and undermine everything the viewer doesn't get and therefore wish to remain ignorant. "lol that movie is so pretentious like it has this philosophy in it and ****" Truly pretentious works are rare, but what are labelled as pretentious are numerous. That and just as vague and silly term "pseudo-philosophy" in the same post hits even lower point
  19. SO IT IS I watched Dr. Strangelove and the question is same as always: Best comedy ever or best comedy ever?
  20. Seriously? I don't know, could be
  21. Xenu will suck their blood and soul essence and then after undoing world reshapes them to godly glowing balls of might
  22. meh, boring What I ment with this I don't see anything cool with the goddamn heroic bravado and sad violin arrangements that are so prevalent in film and game world. They're so calculated and predictable it is depressing. (I'M LOOKING AT YOU JEREMY SOULE!) If EPIC GRAWWR is wanted I'd go and license Verdi's Dies Irae or something. 100xbetter than thousands of its movie world imitators with stupid chants etc. More MotB and PS:T approach, maybe something Morriconesque. K2 soundtrack was also great, Jedi Enclave theme was first time in a long while when brass hornz + violin actually sounded very heartfelt and deeply sad. You must include TonyK's AI

  24. Well, let's see... Combat system? SUCKS SUCKS SUCKS Animations were so nice though I could stand it. Force powers Tied to combat system. Powers themselves are nice but apart from Dominate Mind strictly combat related in nature and as that system was abhorrent, dumbed down D20... Animations were - with these too - great Still minus points to gameplay the star wars species lolwut? They're there for the sake of setting and they were mainly the typical rodians etc. Nothing special the enemies combat system sucks and encounter design was plain boring Nothing good to say about this the weapons Ehh lightsabers are always cool But as combat system sucked and weapons are horribly inbalanced yet more minus points exploring WHAT exploring? When I think of exploring in roleplaying games I think off games like Baldur's Gates 1 & 2 or Fallouts. There is no real "exploring" in Kotors. ------------------------------------------------- Then Good Things: 4. I accidentally voted backstory as 3rd best aspect but that was ment to be 4th It was great and division between it and "main story" seems bit arbitary 3. making choices it's all about roleplaying baby! Kotors aren't exactly The Games to look for if searching for great C&C - such would be Fallouts, Planescape Torment, Arcanum and MotB to name few - but Kotor 2 did nicely. 2. The Main Story It's no Planescape Torment or Mask of the Betrayer for sure, but it was definetly good. Though most of it was just backstory tbh 1. The Characters What Kotor 2 did Really ****ing Well was characters with big C. If you discount Planescape Torment's cast (also from pen of Mr Avellone) and some MotB and Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines characters no other game has had quite as great cast of characters. Kreia herself is of course the queen, but complex characters such as Handmaiden or Visas Marr or Atton are awesome on their own right. Only game with stronger cast of characters is PS:T with Ravel, Dak'kon, Annah, Nodrom, Morte and of course The Nameless One and his various incarnations (of course there are some others as well) thriumphing over any other game... Though I have to say Kreia is even better than any single character in PS:T's cast! Story's and gameplay's shortcomings are forgiven for the awesome writing and roleplaying. And that is something I can't say about K1.
