  1. i noticed this as well. i was a bit disappointed with how...dry...peragus was. as far as first planets go, id say i enjoyed taris more than peragus as a lead in to the game.
  2. look who his father is. is it any wonder? :D
  3. when did they decide to remove the hooded robes altogether for the pc? i thought the only thing they said they wouldnt include was robes where you could put the hoods up and down.
  4. youve gotten more interaction from her than ive been able to. im having a devil of a time getting any of them (apart from kreia) to open up.
  5. isnt that more the actor who played darth vader's fault? (david prowse or something) maybe james earl jones' words would have had more impact if prowse's movements were better coriographed to go with them.
  6. oh god, as much as i liked her in other films, imo she was absolutely horrible as the choice for amidala. she cannot pull off playing someone of royalty. her acting was so robotic and not believable.
  7. seriously? i thought it was a good scene. obviously it was not oscar award calibre, since none of the dialogue we saw in the star wars films were, but i thought it was done well within the setting of the movies.
  8. :D did that really have to be spoiler tagged?
  9. . but i cant be sure since that part of the quest i could never accomplish.
  10. this would probably be better asked in the spoiler forum. however i believe . i never was able to myself. *shrugs*
  11. was that mod for bastila and a female pc? i thought it was just to make juhani a romance option for either gender pc.
  12. No. Only Sith besides Palpatine that made a dent on the Jedi Order was Kun and despite his success he never brought the Order down. There was a battle that almost destroyed the Jedi but then again it destroyed all Sith except Darth Bane. So there is no base to the Jedi Order being almost gone, the movie strongly give the impression the Jedi Order is as old as the Republic and neither EVER ceased to exist at one point in history until The Empire. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> again you seem to not understand what the phrase "near extinction" implies. you keep responding as if ender wrote that the jedi order had become extinct for a short period of time.
  13. considering there has been a mod to have bastila in a thong, id say maybe. "
  14. thats hot. as for me, im a male so i guess i just naturally....drift...towards a romance with a female npc rather than a male npc. plus, as ivan stated, the connection and romance subplot seems to 'fit' better with the story.
  15. Sorry but no. The Jedi Order never ceased until Palpatine make the Jedi Hunt, they had their rought times but never to the point were it disbanded. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> i guess you missed the phrase 'hunted to near extinction'.
  16. thats because he was a hologram??
  17. i didnt fight him right away. i came back to dantooine after doing a couple of other planets and by that time i had my lightsaber and force powers galore and he was no problem.
  18. i do agree with that part. i found it annoying when id agree (lie) to one of my lightside party members, hoping that it would pacify them, but then netted me lightside points. i think in hindsight, this could have been rectified by obsidian adding a [Lie] option to each dialogue choice, wherein that implied it was by definition a darkside choice.
  19. the bolded part is one thing i am a bit disappointed in. however, i keep going back to the example of senator/chancelor palpatine. id say his 'influence scheme' was probably the best and most pronounced in the movies. he did his influencing by 'kissing up' (as you put it) to those around him so that theyd believe he was their friend. thats how it is implemented in tsl and i think that portion of it (or the base idea, anyways) works. i think, as you suggested, there should have been much more [Lie] options, especially for a darksider, so that it would seem as if youre only picking those dialogue options to sucker in your companions and that you dont actually believe in those options. i think the trouble stems from once you have gained influence on them, they still resort to bitching and moaning about you doing acts that are opposite to their original alignment. in that sense, the influence system could be tweaked.
  20. i understand the dialogue part, but in terms of your example about atton, if your party members just automatically shift to the alignment you are without it being difficult, then isnt that another reason to not even bother with the influence system? i figured the whole reason for it was because there was actually a chance that you would NOT gain influence with them and theyd pretty much ignore you. with your atton example, where every act you commit means they slip to your alignment without much prodding, its as if you dont even have to try and basically its kotor1 all over again. unless im misreading your explanation, your basically saying that if you play as a darksider and slaughter innocents throughout the game, then everyone in your party should automatically go over to the darkside, one moment at a time, with them slowly commenting less and less about the atrocious acts. thats not really much of an influence system then, if there is no possible way for your character to actually fail at influencing someone.
  21. im finding it very frustrating and difficult to get influence over certain characters. it seems like you have to spend a lot of time with each in your party and the problem is that you can only bring along 2 at a time. ive played through 2 times now and so far i have only been able to get attons backstory and some of visas and handmaidens. handmaiden still wont tell me her real name even though ive convinced her to become a jedi and be my padawan. mira wont open up to me and ive put her in my party pretty much the entire time ive had her.
  22. smarter? no. more difficult? yes.
  23. id be curious to hear (read) how you think it should have been implemented then. if youve already posted a detailed example, then ill do a search for that topic instead, but im trying to get an idea of exactly how you want it to work. right now i can only debate on the premise that you think this system doesnt work, but i cant really comment on how (in terms of an example during gameplay or dialogue) you think the 'perfect' system would work. is it just the lack of many [lie] dialogue options available? because i dont see how you can influence a npc without actually first gaining their trust. and i dont see any other way, other than pacifying them by agreeing with them, to gain their trust other than the [lie] option.
  24. i was able to. but im not sure if thats because i was considered neutral at that point, or because i had started to drift towards the darkside when i came across some jedi masters.
