I mean, when I hear of the word "Lord", images of a fat and overgrown landowner sitting along side his chubby mistress dining in a medieval castle overlooking farmland, certainly not the image I see when I meet a menacing warrior of the force wielding a death stick. Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords deserves a better name, a name that reflects the ferocity of the adversary, a name that makes the PC run away screaming like a little girl upon hearing it. I propose, instead of "Lords", we use Sith God Emperors of Unholy Doom. or Sith Death Warrior That Will Gut You Like A Yavinese Tapeworm Lodged in Your Lower Colons. or Sith Dysentery. Those names would be cool. "Lords" sounds much too non-inspiring and bland.

I always treated Bastila like a pet. "I mean... I haven't seen my mother in years, you know, after that incident with my father. And I don't know, I'm really afraid to face her and all that and now, she actually wants to meet me. I don't know know what to do..........................." "That's nice dear." :: pet pet :: "Go play with your toys now."

Was Luke Skywalker a Darth Vader wannabe when he overthrew the evil Empire? Was Leif Ericsson an Eric the Red wannabe when he discovered the Americas and claimed it in Viking glory? Was the yellow teletubby a Big Bird wannabe when he mesmerized children of our generation with his inane babbling? Nay, these were visionaries, just like their predecessors. Obsidian is the renewal of Black Isle, the unquenchable and unyielding warrior spirit of the fallen fathers! Down with BIOWARE! Chant with me now guys. DOWN WITH BIO-wAReZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No. I think these devs are a tad more subtle than that. Of course I could be wrong.

hahaha grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr PS:T owns all. no rabid bio fanboy can deny that.

Too often we get RPG's where the main character is a "newbie" in the form of a fledgling wizard, an orphan, a prisoner, or an adventurer who flees from a Goblin waitress in fear. I actually prefer playing a character that has a thick background that "validates" the heroism that ensues. Like Revan from KOTOR, for example. His deeds that you play through aren't mere side effects of fortune (brought to an island on a prisoner ship, *happened* to be the only student alive capable of clearing out the wizards, or just *born* to be the son of a god.) but the fact that he was a talented general who had the galaxy at his heels. This war veteran in KOTOR 2 sounds just as appealing to me. I don't mind characters that start off at level 1. I just enjoy seeing a deep background and a sense of maturity behind my characters. You?

I have sent you a PM saying "I love you" Now then, let's get down to business. Firstly, I enjoy humor. I love adding humor to my posts. Previous posters in this thread (YES, unlike some people I start reading threads from page 1.) have mentioned Bastila's physical qualities. Henceforth, I thought some jokes about her sexuality would generate a welcoming laughter. You don't like it. Congrats, you must be a better man than I. I'm not going to derail the thread in a flaming wreck, so bringing it back on topic: I don't like Bastila. I am the minority. Avellone & co. has given me enough faith in their past games to post this because unlike arrogant companies, they DO listen to minorities. They can read my posts, absorb what they want, and dump the rest. The fact that I dislike Bastila makes me a minority. The fact that I dislike shallow characters who are NOT very well developed makes me a glaring majority. I think Bastila wasn't a very well developed character. My opinion. Devs shouldn't shrug off my post because i'm a MINORITY. Devs should look at my post, understand WHY I think the way I think, and they're one person richer in understanding what their fans want. Simple. I love you. Don't hate me because you want to start a mob in crusade to kill all Bastila naysayers. I didn't personally attack you, don't attack me. (I hate to pull rank here, but I'm not by any stretch of the imagination *new*. Nor do I seek to make a *career*.)

My friend, my loving, christian, heartwarmed, young friend who failed the SAT reading comprehension: Read my post again, please, and you will soon see that I said though Bastila has a slightly more feminine form, she has no personality. This is why I prefer the "catwoman" who though far less attractive to younglings like you, contains far more personality, personality which I prefer in a deeply developed and richly formulated character. You can't call me a sexually frustrated person. You can call me a cat fetishist. You can accuse me to sodomizing my cat. You can call me a furry lover. You can call me a pervert who goes to circuses and f's bearded ladies. When you insult me, please understand my post first and direct your insults appropriately, thank you.

I would much rather see a return of Juhani, whom I thought was a character worth making a comback of. She was one of the only memorable characters that really stood out. The whole joseph cambell style of sinking into darkness and emerging from the cocoon gives her a personality worth admiring. Don't let Bastila the Bloody Bastard's abnormally large boobs (which are FAKE, btw) and ugly face fool you into thinking she's a solid (haha) character. She's got no outstanding personality, nothing special worth remembering, and nothing to show for her efforts in self-improvement. She's one of those characters that just DOESN'T seem to seek self-improvement, and as such, she is flawed, empty, and rotting inside. The way she treated her mother... oooh... makes me wanna blow my top. Bastila = Die plz k thx.

Negative, Popey. I seriously doubt that, with her fickleness combined with unparalleled skills to WHINE, she can't take over a crabs infested brothel much less than the universe. Hmm, reflecting upon the original KOTOR, let's see what she did right: NOTHING. -She lost her lightsaber (Yeah, gj JEDI!) -She got captured (by thugs who can't roll a saving throw if they rigged the dice) -She gets captured AGAIN (pointlessly throwing herself into Revan's arms) -She tries to be evil but potentially FAILS (oooh, you love me? Cool. Okay lemme get naked and turn goody goody now.) Hmm...

Please don't bring back Bastila. I hated that woman. Whine whine whine. You don't love me! I'm going to the dark side! Whine whine whine. I change my mind faster than you can hyperspace! Whine whine whine. Look, I'm evil! NO WAIT I LOVE YOU IM GOOD K? Whine whine whine. :: Lightsaber through chest :: Dead. Almost as whiny as Aerie in BGII, except not as pretty, and didn't sleep with me.
