The story is unconventional and violates the usual rules. Its also hard to understand. It doesn't really help that the game is obviously unfinished. Many of the last levels of it do not really make sense. But you can expect the main villain to have a very unconventional motivation; taking over the world wasn't exactly his plan.

Its pretty easy to get influence with Handmaiden... just by talking to her first time I already got 2 influences. Then the 3 fights (last needs level 18) which each give you influence as well, thats probably already enough. As you should better keep her at level 6 if you want to jediize her, you won't take her much outside anyway.

Either your or my monitor is doing something wrong then. No pink for me. Deep blood red in my game. As it should be.

TToEE did not fail because it was 2D or turn based. It did fail BECAUSE IT HAD NO STORY WHATSOEVER !! It was an uber boring dungeon walk. Give us a BG/NWN/KotoR like party and story and it would have rocked. I dunno if people really would have bought it in masses, however.

Hu ? Its just red ? What can be ugly about red ?!?!?

I'm in my second walkthrough and finished Telos. So I'm on my way to the other planets, but I can't decide in which sequence I should take them. On my first walkthrough I took Nar Shaddaa last which was a very bad choice, obviously. I got Mira and HK-47 only when the game was already nearly over, and had no chance to ever jedify Mira or Atton. So - what sequence do you think would be best ? First Nar Shadda for Mira (and G0-T0/HK-47) ? First Dantoine for the personal crystal ? First Onderon for Mandalore ?

Yeah, all games should have that one... then again, because KotoR2 is the only game ever that has it, its kinda pointless to use it because I do that with my backups anyway (every character gets his own directory, when I start the game up I first choose which character I want to play, then copy him back).

Last duel is at level 18. Mira (from the influence guide of Dan Simpson):

And totally superflous for me... KotoR2 is the ONLY game which EVER had that functionality so I just do it like for all other games... saving my saves away on the backup partition. :D

LS Consolar was my own setup there, too. There is no LS attack force except Destroy Droid. And even as a DS you would be too lowlevel to kill people with the force already. I mean you can try - but it takes ages. All you really need there is Speed and Energy Resistance (you DO have Speed and Energy Resistance, right ? Both stand uber useful from beginning to end of the game), and have your health always in sight so you can run away early enough to regenerate.

Theres a modding community working on completing the game: http://www.team-gizka.org/ Thats the only hope to ever get KotoR2 completed.

You cant lock yourself in the Academy by bashing anything. And yes, that part of the game was one of the parts where I had to check a walkthrough because I didn't found any exit (Even if the part where a walkthrough was REALLY helpful was Nar Shaddaa where you have to gain enough "fame" to get the quest started. Silly !).

Because I don't understand it ? Oh and yes, Kreia and Sion still can hit you, but that wasn't my question anyway.

Thank you

OOooh you can ? Whow. Teh, I never even tried it, thought it was intended. :D (Its manageable without them of course, its only quite hard)

Its normal. You are supposed to do the next quest coming up on your own.

Yes, and Titanic was only about the sinking ship. Romance had a HUGE part in both the old series (Triangle Luke - Han - Leia) and the new series (Anakin - Padme).

LOL ! Adds *nothing* to the game ? In the process of removing her romance, Juhani was obviously stripped of a TON of dialogue about the nature of the force etc. They are even still in the datafiles, even if they cannot be heard in the game. And Juhani herself... she hardly talks now.

Hmm ok then I really must have forgotten it. I didn't had Bao-Dur much in my party, actually. Only when I needed someone with skills... Nevertheless, its stupid to turn him into Jedi. If he would become a Sentinel, ok. But a guardian ??? Pfft. His skills where his big advantage !

Actually KotoR2 lags as hell on PC too if you have hardware like it was actual at the time it was released. As did KotoR1. I should try that one again on my new computer... Dantoine was a HELL of lag on my old one. The only fix around it was loading a different texture quality (medium if you had high before etc). Too, while I never have a performance problem, KotoR2 has a lot of really ugly issues with forgetting textures he should have loaded (resulting into really ugly colors shown on objects), or believing that people have no light source at all (they appear perfectly black), or even worse forgetting almost everything about the scene (you suddenly walk through a big bunch of lines where a scene should be). Quicksave and loading that save helps, but not permanently.

You get prestige for giving the Holocron to Uthar but not for killing Lashowe (even if Uthar congratulates you for killing her). You got it. Plus you got DS points. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Actually no, you don't have to get DS points for killing Lashowe. You just have to mistrust her (with good reason) and say you want to bring the Holocron to Uthar yourself (instead of her doing that, where she very likely would fail to mention your involvement in attaining it). Thats when she attacks you and turns out to be an easy kill. But no DS points for defending yourself against her.

In short: Guardian: 1 + Int Bonus / Level Consolar: 2 + Int Bonus / Level Sentinel: 3 + Int Bonus / Level At level 1, one gets 4x the normal number of skills Int Bonus := (Int - 10) / 2 And there is always AT LEAST 1 skillpoint per level - therefore a Guardian Int 8 gets 1 skillpoint/level, too.

KotoR2 behaves very funny in that respect. You suddenly get blocked, or during battle you suddenly can't move any more and get teleported around. Its really anoying but oh well usually I even get an advantage from that.

??? Theres nothing under your link, just some vague rumors. And its WIKIPEDIA for heaven's sake. Do you honestly believe everything you read on Wikipedia ?!?!? My oh my. The article about the Bhagavad Gita promoted some psychosect last time I checked. The article about Scientology will very likely tell you they're an organization for world peace or something. Articles about economy are usually allocated by representants of neoliberal views (well at least when you read the german Wiki, I don't know about the english one). And so on. PLUS theres a BIG FAT "scheduled for deletion" marker on that article, too. How much more obvious can it get ? This is nothing but a faint rumor. Nothing substantial. If there really would be a KotoR3 in the next months, there would be a hell of OFFICIAL advertisements around already.

Juhani is the strongest party NPC in KotoR1. Killing her is therefore utterly stupid. All you have to do is giving her twoweapon and max out her Power Attack. Additionally Speed, Force Immunity, Energy Resistance, and Plague (the later has no DC, thats why its good for Juhani). After that she's da killa ! Only the protagonist himself (or herself) is even more powerful (if you build him right).
