I loved the announcer.... "Laadieeees aaaand gentlemaaaaan"

I would say that a good number of them could be shared. You could probably get away with 2....one for LS and one for DS. I highly doubt 12, lest they all be shallow characters.

This was already explained: such is the image in western popular culture. Isn't? I don't think so. I live in Edmonton, Canada, and I don't know anyone that thinks of Eastern Europeans as savages.

Becouse we love this character and want to interact with her again. Pretty simple. You continuously put your own opinion as that of the entire community. You love Bastila (as well as some others). I did not care much for the Bastila character for the majority part of the game. The only time she was interesting is when you meet her on the temple top....aside from that she seemed rather boring and not deep at all. I do not want to see her because I want to meet new characters that are much deeper and more interesting as a result. If any of you have played Planescape: Torment, you would know that MCA is capable of making much more fascinating characters, that you are always engaging in conversations again and again just to see if they have anything new to say. Which says a lot for the characters in KOTOR, since she isn't very deep. In any case I found Jolee to much more fascinating than Bastilla. I always found myself waiting for him to say something. His stories were interesting....Bastila's were not nearly as so. I preferred the internal conflict of Carth over Bastila's cliched character. Although I did like most of the character sidequests, since they generally created internal conflicts within the characters. Although I would like some verification of these sidequests if someone has a moment: Bastila and her mom Carth and his son (never done this one) Mission and her brother Zaalbar and his home planet Juhani and a murderer of her race Canderous and some goons or something (did this one once a long time ago). Jolee and Sunry (??? not sure if this is actually his side quest or if there is something more...seems to quick). HK-47 and his repairs T3 and.......ok fine nothing here...but since he was virtually untapped I don't mind his addition to KOTOR 2....they can make something more out of him.

Naive savages?

That would be pretty cool actuatlly....a game of cat and mouse with an assassin droid. Actually, I wouldn't be surprised if HK is allowed to join your party, but eventually betrays you because his assassin protocols kick in.

You calculate 12 apprentices from the previous game? In any case, I doubt that any apprentices (if they do happen) will be from the previous game. And I doubt that Yuthura would be an apprentice....she'd probably already be stronger than you to start the game. She's had 5 additional years to study the Force.....and she probably would not fall to the dark side again...but maybe I suppose.

If you had master force speed enabled you did get 3 attacks with a force jump move...the animation just didn't show it.

It's like a submarine....not everyone sleeps at one time.

Not necessarily. And the apprentice would probably be just in title only. But someone 3 levels lower than you is not gonna be as powerful as you.

Does anybody like wookies? Chewbacca was pretty cool

That's why the only characters that can be critical are HK, T3, and Canderous. You cannot have anyone else be critical to the role because if you choose darkside dialogues they would be dead or gone.

lol

LOL...nice Avatar.

So you can see how the game plays. You don't need to have the demo relate in anyway to the story to make it a KOTOR demo. A lot of demos for games such as Half-Life 2 and whatnot have no bearing on the story.

Heh....how is this thread still open. As far as I'm concerned Akari ended it with the second post

I would bet that that is only for movies. As far as KOTOR is concerned the DVD would just be removable storage media (i.e. just like a big CD).

FMVs are time consuming and expensive.

I think it's a little late to fix that with the game being set only 5 years after the first game Obsidian really has no choice but to include some of the characters from KOTOR. Wether they play major roles within the game itself is a mystery but if I was a betting man I'm sure one or two will. Cheers! There's no reason to let them dominate the sequel though.

Games like BG:DA are generally considered Action RPGs.

I dunno. I neither love nor hate you. Ok I will rephrase. Once you know me, you either love me or you hate me. Unless that person (me) is too cynical and indifferent to most things

Releasing things in both formats I think is an unnecessary expense. I think they would choose one or the other...although other games have gone with both formats.

What are you waiting for?

Nope. What makes a game a rpg? D2 has character classes, levels, selectable skills, everything you need for RPing. I suppose the definition of an RPG is rather vague....but I consider an RPG to be more than just a game where you can select a class and upgrade your stats. Hence why Diablo II is generally referred to a RPG Lite or an action RPG. IMO RPGs generally involve epic stories with lots of character interaction.
