  1. Depending on the execution of it, they might have made it a more "credible" story by emphasizing your Mandalorian heritage rather than your bounty hunter heritage. There does seem to be some loose association between Mandalorian clans and the Empire. At least enough for them to have their own enclave in Dromund Kaas. I really resented Gault when playing my first character. Eventually he grew on me, but it did take 2-3 years of real time Edit: as for why I picked the bounty hunter for my first class, 2 reasons: Mako was cute and I loved the armour displayer on their website for the powertech class (which of course was no longer available ingame when I started playing) They should have just scrapped the whole Mandalorian and hunt element of it. The iconic Star Wars Bounty Hunters weren't part of some glorified contest. They were the dudes a Sith Lord called in to get the job done when the rest of the Empire wasn't up to the job. The BH should have been employed directly by the Sith. Training and commanding troopers on commando raids, assassination missions, hunting down defectors.
  2. Rogue One will be the first Star Wars movie I get on Blu-Ray. I thought it was pretty okay for most of the film. But the third act is simply perfect. It turned an acceptable side story in the Star Wars universe into a worthy addition to the original epic. It made me feel feelings. Feelings that leave me unsatisfied with other entertainment, at least for a little while. The kind that put me in a position to write and express myself. To improve my own creative energy and try to pass those feelings on that way. The appropriate adjective is "inspiring." Try not to give that too much weight, however. I'm not saying it'll change lives. While it is a grand thing, I'm also inspired by Bushes of Love (we've all got a Chicken Duck Woman Thing waiting for us). That song is beautiful and ridiculous.
  3. Yes, but now you'll always know you're a fraud of a Bounty Hunter.
  4. Not being able to kill Gault is the main reason I never made it past beta.
  5. I want a pet Trico. So cute.
  6. Neither is KOTOR 1 and 2.
  7. I don't think there's any real chance of it being made. Disney hasn't shown any interest in doing more for the Legends continuity. I also think SWTOR and the novels have killed off most plot threads a KOTOR 3 would have addressed.
  8. I experimented with ramen today. Mostly I learned that it's remarkably hard to screw up ramen so long as you're not being ridiculous. But also: Egg whites do not form ribbons when doing egg drop. But neither do they ruin the broth. They do leave a residue on the bottom of the pan, or at least with what I did. Salted mushrooms are pretty good. Putting broccoli into soup inevitably makes the entire thing taste a bit like broccoli soup. The flavor is strong with this vegetable. Medium size shrimp sink.
  9. My biggest disappointments were the derailment of Legion's character into the very cliche he was originally written to defy and the lack of any character arc aside from the DLC guy and the robot I forget the name of (whose arc was also pretty much the same as Legion's new derailed character). A great ending could have made those something I just shrugged at. Endings can do that, it's just the way they are. But yeah, it's hardly the only problem it had.
  10. I still can't get over a galactic government that consists of three people. And how screwed up even the idea of Spectres is. I get that they wanted to have their own version of Jedi, but it came across as a transparent rogue cop power fantasy. Complete with them taking away your badge later when they ground your ship. At least there should have been some self-awareness when one of them turns out to be evil. But no, they just make another one and throw that at the problem. And then you've got Garrus whose entire character is to complain about red tape holding him back.
  11. I also like Bushes of Love.
  12. It's a story about a planetarium in the post-apocalypse, dude. It's not a sexbot. Not that kind of story.
  13. Final Fantasy XV, while also trying out Planetarian and Fruit of Grisaia when I want something a little less time demanding. Planetarian came to me highly recommended, but it's slow to hook. Fruit of Grisaia I should hate, but I do not. The protagonist is an ultra-perfect jackadoodle, who is some sort of mysterious secret agent type whose backstory keeps referencing a master like he trained in forgotten martial arts out in the woods. He ends up at a school that only has 5 other students, all of them girls. And a single teacher/principle, also an attractive woman. I'm pretty sure they all want him. But his sarcasm is on point. And one of the girls keeps trying to stab him, which is the quickest way to my heart, I don't know about you. And another is trying her hardest to be a tsundere cliche, which ends up being delightful.
  14. There was a rumor of Obsidian involvement after Human Head. I always wonder if that's how Avellone ended up involved.
  15. Developers are pets confirmed. Or orphans.
  16. Apparently he's giving a talk in Poland, so he probably stopped by. Otherwise I'd be getting paranoid.
  17. Yeah, I got TLG today, but I'm still finishing up Steins;Gate 0. And I'm loving 0 so very much. I want to play FFXV before that, too. Edit: Then there's the Rogue One DLC for Battlefront. An embarrassment of riches, I tell you.
  18. Hope everything's okay at Obs.
  19. I was forced back to Muv-Luv, moving on to Unlimited. Forced because my new PS4 arrived today. I installed a 2 TB hard drive in it and started transferring the data from the old one. Lo and behold that's going to take 9 hours.
  20. I'd leave the Milky Way just to get away from people who have no sense of adventure. Nobody ever asks "why send a probe beyond Pluto?" Or "why explore the bottom of the Marianas Trench?" But they do ask "why build intelligent machines?" Which is kind of a racist question to ask if you think about it.
  21. You truckers need some culture!
  22. Honestly, more developers should work like this.
  23. Am I really the only Steins;Gate fan? Steins;Gate 0 just got even more interesting for me. Any scene with Okabe is heartbreaking. And all of the other scenes practically make me so giddy I can't sit still.
  24. Steins;Gate 0 SQUEE!
