I must agree, the art is looking very good. it has a certain style and flair that was lacking in Kotor, imo.
the original art, while perfectly acceptable, was bland and unimaginative. Kotor2 won't disappoint anyone in that regard.
-
some people (nightcleaver) are giving bioware way too much credit for the twist in Kotor.
yes, it was well-written and I'll admit that it took me by surprise, but to suggest that only they could think of it is ridiculous.
MY point wasn't necessarily that the protagonist/antogonist switch hadn't been done before, but the REVAN switch hadn't been done before.revan is only a character, like harry angel in angel heart, so by using that logic the switch in that movie hasn't been done before either. the twist is exactly the same - the protagonist is really the antagonist. the only thing that changes is character name (which is irrelevant) and the circumstances which lead to the 'revelation'.
replace de Niro's Lucifer with Malak and you have a carbon copy of the leviathan scene.

7 styles actually.
I posted this on another thread but it seems applicable here.
http://jediarchives.bejedi.com/index.php?c=fighting_styles
No dates are given but I imagine the styles have existed for some time..
-
Yeah, the older Jedi is Kreia, but the silver haired one on Lucasart's page is not the same.
Her name begins with A.
All speculation, of course.
-
The Jedi with 'white' hair isn't called Quatra, her name begins with A.
Since the post that named her was deleted I better not say anything else. :ph34r:
-
Well, let's hope your 'gut feeling' is wrong, eh?
-
I'm thinking that T3 is there to help repair the ebon hawk, but I'm not sure if repair was one of his skills. That shows how much I used him in Kotor. I can't remember a damn thing about him except that he could open a door. oh wait, maybe the ebon hawk has a lock? yeah that explains it. he gains you access then becomes useless again.
-
They can learn from Bio's KOTOR msiatkes
yeah, msiatkes are the worst. i can't stand it when people make lazy msiatkes.
hehe, once again newc brings the house down.
-
Because some got 'lost' with the server change... myself included.
I had to re-register.
-
I thought you are unable to kil carth as a DS male.
Correct.
I think he meant Mission actually, since he couldn't remember what he did to her in the darkside game, and killing her is the only option.
-
They'd be pretty crazy to include T3 and then make him as useless as he was in Kotor, but he's also there because droids are a star wars icon. I think T3 will be a worthy companion this time.
-
Lightsaber hilts shouldn't be on the priority 'to-do' list but I would like to see more personal designs. More colours are fine but useless to me since I invariably pick red
i did like the orange crystal though. -
It'll just be up to Obdisian to make sure the game is balanced depending on what level they expect you to be at the end.
Exactly.
-
All they have to do is space out the feats and powers more - the powers especially. It was the ability to 'spam' the force that made high level a joke. And you can't really get any stronger than you were in Kotor. if you add 10 levels directly to your original 20, then yes you'd be way overpowered, but 20 levels in Kotor2 won't be the same. You might need a prestige class to use those uber powers, with a few restrictions too.
-
I'd only want Bastila around if she was the darkside version. Much better than the lightside Bastila who I can't stand... far too preachy.
No one on that list should have more than a 'cameo' role, imo, except maybe HK-47.
oh, i forgot about T3, he's already been confirmed as a returning character.
-
HK-47
Canderous and Bastila would be my other choices.
-
Will there be a "push" feature, preferably implicit? Sheesh it was frustrating getting caught in corners, because party members wanted to hug you or somehing
yeah, something similar to BG2's 'push' would be nice, nothing worse than party members that block your path and refuse to move.
Is the no violence/adult action thing a Lucasarts thing or a "rating" thing (i.e. target audience)A bit of both probably. I'd appreciate more 'adult action' in kotor2 but that might be unrealistic.
-
3 party members is fine. 5 would be way too many. i think large parties are too hard to manage, especially in combat with the poor AI, and i don't really want to hold their hand all the time. Not to mention, it would really clutter the place up - it'd be murder trying to navigate them around small areas. they still tend to get stuck on 'scenery' or go in the wrong direction. 5 npcs would drive me crazy.
-
they could go either way on this, but i really hope the original characters are no more than cameos, with no major part in the story. Just a 'tie up the loose ends and move on' kinda thing.
-
I'd prefer 20 levels, but i'm not surprised you can go beyond now. Kotor had 20 yet it seemed like a lot less, and most people reached the cap long before the end. Also, those levels were not balanced particularly well. some planets are an absolute joke if you already have certain powers, that's before the "scaled enemies" kicks in - like holy warriors on Tatooine.
If the levels scale better i can see 30 being perfectly acceptable. 40 is way too high though. btw, let's not forget you reach about lvl 8 on Taris. I know some people hold off leveling up but that only leaves 12 levels for the other planets. That was very poor progression.
-
damn, i should have known angel heart.
-
Thanks for the link, Meshugger, that's a very nice site.
i gotta say that "The Sith" and "Korriban Sith Academy" are my favorites.
I like dark themes mostly.
-
yeah, i mostly play a scout for the exact same reason. The soldier outfit is hideous. I started one game as a soldier and quit 5 minutes later because i hated the look. I've played scouts ever since. Now, i do wish clothes were a viable option but at present there's no point to wearing them, other than for some variety. maybe if there's some 'special' clothes that offer benefits likes robes/armor there'd be a reason to?
-
i assumed when he said 3 sets of clothes that he was referring to your starting attire, ie. class specific. But I could be wrong. i don't think what you start with matters much since you'll soon change into armor or robes anyway.
i did like the orange crystal though.
One thing I hated about the LS/DS issues in KOTOR

the only problem I had with the 'choice' is that it came way too late to make a difference. hell, all you can do here is make your fateful choice then rush off to face malak on the star forge. I felt slightly cheated. you can kill Mission, sure, but that's scant consolation. It should have happened not long after the revelation.
