Huh? Then why the hell are you suggesting they make KotOR combat arcade-like?

Fallout. Then Fallout 2. Then Fallout. Then Fallout 2. When you're done, TSL will probably be out already. After you're done with that one, you can go back to your daily Fallout/Fallout 2 routine. :ph34r:

Um, there was a Republic number about them, maybe more than one. I'm too lazy to look up which one it was, though. Those comics are about the Clone Wars, so most of those rather unknown Jedi appear in one or another. And if you like that sexy blue twilek Jedi chick, that's the series for you.

Um, ok. Maybe not all of them are good. Fine. I can't compete with that.

Is this the test in which Bush scored 130? "

Try the new series by Dark Horse. The Republic series is specially good, but even the worst of the new ones is way better than any of that 'Old Sith' & Exar Kun crap.

You could buy them through the Internet. It's just you don't want to. No.

I'd rather not be a beta tester, thank you very much.

An unchallenging game is an unfunny one.

Sounds like they're just removing the 'to hit' rolls from the equation altogether. They are just using skills to determine damage. It's not like they've gone to impossible lengths to blend both concepts. Who can blame them, after all, it can't be done. If you put that in a RPG, you're going to piss off a great deal of players who don't want to have anything to do with twitch gaming. Many of those players specifically play RPGs in order to avoid twitch gaming. Let's have it that way.

Obviously you don't know jack about the finer points of JA dueling. I'm not surprised since you claim to be a FF/FG CTF player. Staff and dual sabers are kata spam-based, mostly. And with all of those forceregentime 0 servers out there it's even worse. But it's too easy to deal with spammers with the single saber, if you know how to do it. That requires skill, and a certain degree of tactics. The single saber is still the most powerful of the three choices, even despite the lower damage potential. That's why most duelists favor them over dual or staves. So, there is dueling in JA. Your not liking it/being able to do it, doesn't change that fact. Get over it.

Sounds boring.

No. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes. oh yes. Um, no.

No. Maul was killed because it wouldn't have been coherent with the SW storyline if he had owned Obi as everything hinted he would. He died because he had to, and that reflects into the LAME way in which he was disposed of. Not that much was lost, anyway.

No.

No, FPS aren't all about button-mashing. Games like Battlefield 1942 prove otherwise. However, it doesn't make much sense to have your character be a l33t sniper, and keep missing because you suck at aiming, for instance. I for one would love to see a JK style game in which you could roleplay some. That would still be an action/FPS game, but it would feature RPG elements. However I don't think KotOR is intended to accomplish that. Agreed. But not KotOR. You know, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

I'm all for a delayed shipping date if that means additional bug squashing.

Because it doesn't work.

That has nothing to do with turning the game into a beat-'em-up. The AI in KotOR is a joke. From what I've been reading, it's even worse for K2. Fix the AI, make it a credible opponent. But a dumb AI is just as unchallenging in an action game as it is in a RPG. KotOR is not meant to be a lightsaber fencing simulator. Combining stat-driven RPG-ish combat and twitch gaming in a satisfactory manner is next to impossible. If you want that, then KotOR is not the game for you. You want a Jedi Academy in which you can choose your dialogue options.

The only way to have a game feature saber fights with that unique SW flavor is through pre scripted sequences of moves. If you give the player complete control over the combat, the result is as lame as in JO/JA. Due to the extremely fast nature of fencing, not everyone can do it. And it gets even better when you have to do it through a keyboard or gamepad. No, KotOR combat is OK as it is, fix the dumb AI and everything will be fine.
