Completed Kotor 7 times. Enough is enough. I might pick it up some day again, but not in the near future. When I have to time to play games these days, I play Pirates! I look forward to Kotor2, but I'm not getting all excited like a bunch of 14 year old girls at a concert

Well, then I would have loved to bring in the big guns. If you knew which one of them was your real father, I could at least insult your pedigree. Alas, as it is, I'll have to mock your body odour which is so bad, that a camels humps would wilt and itself run braying over the nearest cliff edge to escape the horror. (wonder how long this thread will be allowed to continue... )

That means we can flame you without fear of repercussions ? Yes....the mod gods have disabled my flaming abilities. *Tilt* Your mother was a hamster and your father smelled of elderberries...

Self publishing is a bit like carrying all your eggs in one basket... If you create a hit, your walls will be covered with greenbacks. It you flop, you might be completely out of business. It's pretty much what a publisher do, they gamble and put the money up front. If you want to be your own publisher, you also need to consider, where does the money come from to finance your projects, take mortgages or wait a title or five until you might be able to publish smaller titles yourself ? Interplay and Bethesda are two examples of how it can turn out for a company that is both publisher and developer Just curious.

Go away or I shall taunt you a second time!

That would be Morrowind with guns... Ehh, wait, they are already doing that one. It's called Fallout 3 :shifty:"

What a bunch of sorry insult wannabe's No flair, no natural flow, nothing truly aggravating. Go watch a Monthy Python movie.

"Seems" to be the general concensus by people who completed the game (my own subjective interpretation of the feedback on this forum). Great game, bugs that threatens the game experience and an ending that screams "Kotor3!"

Says who ? Define "adequate development time" please ? This was the funny part. Yes, Kotor's engine was a modified Aurora engine. No, an engine that you have to modify to remedy some of the shortcomings that caused complaints from the first game, doesn't necessarily constitute half of the game. A nice starting point to begin development on, yes.

Ask again in February

No

January ??? Oops :"> Translate that to February when it's written on a friday afternoon and the drinks have started to arrive here at the office... I meant February.

IIRC, the talk was of a february release. Then a december release. Turned out that some versions of the game were to be released early (december) and the rest as originally expected in february. I could remember wrong though, I didn't really follow the project that much after it was renamed from Project Delaware to Kotor2:TSL

Nah. The nice guys at LA already changed the release date from Feb. 2005 to Jan 2004 for various reasons (xmas sales, 2004 game awards etc.). No need to change it more. Thanks to all the beta testers out there, I'll enjoy my game once it becomes available In the meantime, I'll just wait patiently and occupy myself by playing Pirates!

South of Amn and Tethyr... you can just spot the upper half of the name down there towards the bottom.

try asking a developer how long it takes to write a class/function/method whatever...

Have you tried the latest drivers for it ?

Ah yes, Visc was the lead designer of Kotor2... :-"

Odds are, they are busy working on NWN2 now. A few might be left to do some adjustments for various PC configurations (different number of audiospeakers, different screen resolutions etc.) With a tiny bit of luck, they will also fix the top 5 games stopping bugs making the pc/internatiol x-box a version 1.01 or some such...

well pc kotor1 was a bit smoother but just as buggy and didn't look as pretty as the xbox version. with the lightsaber most noticably the beutiful glare and bloom of it. in the pc version they looked like X's Sounds almost (from your description) as if you made the same mistake as I did on my first run throug the game. Once I discovered that little toggle button under advanced video settings it became a very different visual experience. It made the x-box version look somewhat outdated by comparison.

And that entitles you to deliberatedly trying to destroy this thread by posting flamebait how ? My life sucks, therefore everybody elses have to suck too ? The original post was funny, so was Oerwinde's, sadly it only takes one troll to ruin it...

Not sure that would qualify as humorous...

Not sure what it has to do with "ridiculing", but then, I'm not very sensitive to religious matters. Having read the Bible, I know that there are some funny passages in there although I can't remember them from top of my head anymore
