Why Darth Sion?
Ha! I can't wait for Darth Zionist and Darth Shalom. Dubai has started producing arab language comic books in which their superheroes defend mecca and medina against the armies of Zionica. Those subtle arabs.

I wonder what attracts people to anime. Is it for the "beautiful" eyes... ...or is there another reason? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Pre-teens like seeing all the boobs they can, drawn or not. Proven fact.

Why Darth Sion?
I doubt it because those were their names before they became Sith. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Bioware just didn't want to confuse us by giving us three names for Revan and two for malak. They did the same thing by having Revan wearing his sith mask and star forge 'Revan' robes in the flashback on dantooine.

Why Darth Sion?
Oh, and this trend of meaningful Darth names started with Maul and Sidious in Ep.1 because Darth Vader was originally just the name of that character. Lucas picked it because it sounded 'cool.'

Why Darth Sion?
Darth means 'shadow warrior.' Malak is a hebrew word meaning angel. So Darth Malak means Shadowy Archangel. Revan is most likely a shortened version of revenant meaning a dead man who comes back to life. Sion is suggesting either that he is the heir to Revan, or Disciple of Kreia.

Help
None of the movies in this game are particularly spectacular or plot necessities anyway.

Do you have an MPEG?

OFN bug, or something new?
Ditto, but you need to go back to a save before you got your companions out. I think.

My Theory on Darth Nihilus Identity
Nihilis is a foil to the exile, not the exile. All the relationships between nihilis and exile are strictly metaphorical. Think of it like in the movie High Plains Drifter. Eastwood's character is the brother of a character at the beginning. The movie suggests at times that he's actually a ghost. But he's not. It's all for metaphoric purposes. Most likely Nihilis is just some guy who the writers have used to represent the exile's loss of power. As far as Revan/Nihilis is concerned, the connection is asanine. Revan's character model looks to be about a foot shorter than nihilis's and nihilis appears to be on roids, which revan doesn't.

Lightsaber colors for NPC's
Exile-viridian Atton-double blasters (even as jedi) Kreia-Blue (this is what she has in the cave on korriban) Mira-singe blaster or yellow handmaiden-weaponless Bao-dur-weaponless Visas-double bladed purple Disciple-orange/bronze edit: If DS all are red

NPC's as jedi's
With Bao-dur, you need to express concern when he gets out of prison, ask him to help you with stuff on Dantooine and Nar Shaddah, do an act of mercy while he's in the party, give a visa to a republican on Onderon, and potentially kill someone while Kreia and him are in the party (Kreia will mind trick him into gaining influence). LS or DS. The next dialogue option with him will let him train as a jedi. If DS, DO NOT start a dialogue with him for any reason before you've done all this.

wisdom def bonus?
I believe the Def bonus from the speeds is glitched and doesn't work, much like DS fury fails to add extra attacks.
-
Dumbfounded on Na-shaddaa
The armor in this game is totally inferior to whatever any character that would wear armor starts out with, excepting Bao-dur, who is the only character that heavy armor would be useful on, but he can't wear that.

Question about unarmed combat
At high levels I consider unarmed combat a cheat. Am I really to believe that an old woman's level 30 one-handed karate is more destructive than a lightsabre with a weak emitter?
-
Forms of attack
I see your point, but jedi train with non-cutting blades. Even still, I can't remember anyone from the martial arts school I used to attend missing instruction because they gave themselves a thigh hematoma with a bo. I do remember one guy accidentally cutting his arm trying to do something too advanced with a katana. Edit: the swing pattern and the grip used makes it difficult to hit one's self with a staff.

Dumbfounded on Na-shaddaa
Does atton ever get any 'bad feelings' about anything after you've left Peragus? Never happened to me.
-
Forms of attack
True, but I've never heard of someone accidentally cracking theirself in the leg with a bo staff.
-
Forms of attack
This stuck out in my head ever since I read on lucasarts website that staff sabers are too dangerous and aggressive for jedi. The whole idea of using one of these things in martial arts is that they are less lethal than swords and better at blocking an attack.

Jedi Names
Warpa Penstmi. Sounds like I'm telling someone about a hookup I had.

Forms of attack
Right, but Laozi's point was probably that the overwhelming majority of sith use only one lightsaber. I love putting words in other people's mouths.

TSL Movie - Who Would Play Each Role?
Don't know what KIFE means, but Mira looks just like her character in Single White Female. I still like Rutger Hauer as Canderous slightly over Perlman simply because he's older and the way Canderous talks about himself (in Kotor1 during jhis last two dialogues and in kotor2 when you say you thought he'd be stronger than he is) suggests to me that the writers envisioned him much older than the animators made him. I will admit that Perlman MUST have been the animators' inspiration for the Canderous model.

Forms of attack
He just meant that Darth Maul has a lot more precedence with a double-blade than, say, Bastila.

TSL Movie - Who Would Play Each Role?
Kreia- Marianne Faithful/the woman who plays old McGonaghall in the potter movies Atton- Alan Cummings Disciple- that moron from Rollerball and American Pie Handmaiden- Halle Berry/Ann Heche Bao Dur- Chris Walken/Tony Shalhoub HK-47- the Animators that did the horrible (but great looking) Final Fantasy movie T3-M4- R2D2 Go-to- Any actor lose his throat from long term cigarettes? Visas Marr- Kelly Hu Mandalore- Rutger Hauer wookie- Peter Mayhew Mira- Bridget Fonda Sion- Gary Oldman Nihilis- Sven Ole Thorsen (Thorgrim from Conan1, the gladiator with the cool mask from Gladiator, in some other stuff too) and some guy with a keyboard Atris- the woman who plays James Bond's Boss Vrook- don't know. Christopher Lee is the only one pompous enough and he's already Dooku Zaz Kai Ell- Jason Alexander Vash- someone hot Kavar- Roger Moore the Exile- uh...Casey Affleck?

Darkside Playthrough
There are lines like this. You can start making demands from Vaklu when assaulting onderon. One of which is that Onderon give you all the force sensitives on the planet so that you can build your own personal army.

I lurked from August until November when I started posting. Am I included or excluded?
