ShinIchiro

That's why there isn't a complete surrender. There is nothig that I can think of that is completely irrational. In fact I don't think the human mind can comprehend complete irrationality.

Revan should in no circumstances return. He dominated the last game and should stay out of this one. New game. New company. New PC. New story focus.

Game mechanics can't cover everything. A good GM has to adapt, and not turn a good idea down because they can't make it work with the current mechanics. Mechanics can't be perfect and are inherently flawed.

What the companies need to do is take a step back, wait for the MMORPG business to unswamp itself, wait until they have something groundbreaking and ingenious to contribute, and when the time is ripe make a good game. Too many companies are doing the same thing with a different theme and minor differences.

Because we all have no lives and the best we can ever hope to get is a fictional character. Anyway, this game needs to not have to lean on the older one. One or two cameos. That's about it.

If someone abandons the force they loose touch with it. They simply don't access it. It's like getting really rusty at something. Obviously the PC has had this happening for decades. Thus they have to get back in touch with themselves. Also, trama can cause an emotional block on the force. Another example of loosing touch with the force is Mara Jade. I have no idea for the explanation of that, I just know it worked and it was an effect of the emperor's death. Major events can block the force (or simply the person can't access it in their usual strength).

I didn't like the old swoop system, but I can see it improving with changes. It has potential; this potential is easier to bring out in a circuit (I don't like those boost things either. They should give a temporary speed boost, not make the race).

It fits with SW, but not with the Jedi. Maybe the sith would use it... Think about it, what sitiuation is the whip most commonly associated with? It's a weapon of pain. It's easier to disarm someone with a sword than a whip. It's easier to kill someone with a sword than a whip, but also easier to control. The jedi are about balance and control, not what the whip is about.

Look at the KOTOR medical technology. Eons behind "modern" SW stuff. I think shields are new at this era. The fleet battle at Star Forge was a miniscule fleet compared to NJO stuff. Droids are a little less advanced looking, but only a little.

If Katarn could do it...

only for bosses

I think there are who should come back but not who shouldn't topics. Besides most of them turn into HK or Bastila obsessions.

It has been stated that there will be returning characters as NPCs. Note the plural. Is this a good or a very bad thing? Who would be worst coming back as an NPC in the party (we've all had discussions on who would be best)? People I would like least to come back (they have already had had intricate sidequests. They would either be pathetic or steal the show, neither of which is good). Carth Bastila People Who Shouldn't Come Back, but it wouldn't be a catastrophe (they've already had their moments in the first game and could be ruined in the second). HK Jolee People who could come back, just are risky Canderous Juhani Zalbaar Mission People Who are fine coming back T3 What do you think?

It ends where it ends. But being able to backtrack right before the final bossfight and do challanging and fun sidequests is a good idea.

I've heard worse...most of them have been on this forum. But, yeah it's a really pathetic idea. Right now i'm just trying to prove that it's pathetic.

Either you are exemplifying Kyp's argument or you are saying the opposite. Can't quite tell which. A saber is the symbol of the jedis. I agree that there should be more of a mystical feel of the force. In KOTOR 1 we used the force casually and Kyp Durron style ("the force is just a tool, like a lightsaber").

Guys, the fact that a saber is weightless has been mentioned many many times in the books and referenced in some movies. You don't have to be a "technical geek" (btw, how would that be a technical geek anyway...). Also, saberwhips are doomed to failure. I've seen some precident of sabers being able to marginally bend (Rebel Stand?), but my source is a very strange NJO book. Also, they can't go to whip capacity. It's been mentioned before that sabers are especially hard to control (I forget exactly due to what but I think it has something to do with virbrations). Also, why would it touching the ground make it drain energy extra fast? Find some precident for that (I'm probably just wrong so show me a good source and I will believe you). Saberwhips... This is SW, not whatever weird other Sci-Fi. Saberwhips might be plausible in some situation... but probably not. Now say laser whips and I will agree and show you the Obi Wan and Qui Gon series (forget what it is called) and give you an example.

This isn't a traditional CRPG. It's allowed to have fun minigames. Besides, what does it hurt anyway?

About corran's saber, he uses a dual phase lightsaber. They are much rarer than the usual sabers, but were used. They are alot harder to make.

I need a time. Now would be very good. I have plans I need to shift around and around 15 minutes before I make a decision.

While that is a good idea, it doesn't fit in this game. As this is a D20 system and that progression is prettymuch anti D20... However, in other PnP systems (unisystem and some others I think) it is recomended for good roleplaying that you upgrade things that you use (because you practice) in the story.

Lowbaaca has a gold blade. Tenel Ka has turquoise i think. I forget the rest of them. O wait, orange and there's also the lighter purple color that Anakin has.

I think I can tommorow, but chances decrease if I don't know the time soon.

I got affect mind already. I'll get another eventually though.

SW game. SW music. It's for the best. Really, what would the atmosphere be if your rap/rock/whatever was playing at the same time.
