Isn't that a DX2 joke? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ding! Ding! Ding! You've won tonight's star prize: A Blow On The Head.

Perhaps you need to have a real relationship, where you look into the eyes of the one you love, rather than swallow their genitalia. That might help you get some perspective back. Just about all of the Magnificent Seven films. They started off with a cast of seven superstars, gradually lost them all (a maxima ad minima) and now there's even a tv series ...

Monopolies (and duopolies and cartels, for that matter) are not good for the consumer. That's why your gut is celebrating (to stretch the metaphor uncomfortably thin ...).

I know someone who knows someone who cleans the cleanerbots. (They obviously haven't invented a bot to clean cleanerbots, yet.)

1. Welcome. 2. Go back and read what is already written; that is the first commandment of a forum: a lex fori non scripta. This allows you to add constructively to the discussion, rather than endlessly repeating what might already be written many times over. After all, your new opinion is no more important than everyone else's previously written ones. Actum ne agas. 3 Read more. Lurk, then post. See how punctuation and tidiness makes your comments easier to read? That's why it was invented a few centuries ago. I agree, by the way, and as I've said before, that it would be a good idea to have different "role streams".Viz., the inclusion of distinct: "Jedi", "Sith", "Grey" and even a rudimentary "Force Adept" role for the PC to follow, depending on the initial choices made. This should have all the necessary components to pull it off. As Yoda would say (if he kew latin): aut non tentaris aut perfice. Vide ut supra. Be careful of your rhetorical questions: you may not want the answer ... One point about alien races is the unsuitability for some of them for PC use. A Trandoshan would be a beast of a race, probably as powerful as a Wookie, and so also should be limited in their classes. this means either the Trandoshan can't be a Force Adept, or if it is possible, some of the innate strength of the race is sacrificed. The ship only played a the part of a plot device in the first two games (in fact we spent the first half of the first game obtaining it, and most of the second game chasing after it); there was no interation with other NPCs using the ship (as in combat). That's a large change; are you trying to add a new game dimension, like space combat in SWG:JtLS ? -

Well, I think that's the central conceit and the leitmotif all-in-one. In fact, that particular Blcokbuster rents soft-pr0n, so I don't even know if it's a film from the traditional Hollywood, or the other Hollywood.

am i the only one that loved that ending?
metadigital replied to teegees's topic in Star Wars: General Discussion
Did I just misunderstand the context of this*, then? *whilst keeping with the only consistency provided by the game, that being a total lack of any substance. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes. Why should the character have to appear in person to be "advanced and built upon"? Revan was mentioned frequently in dialogue throughout the game (particularly in dialogue with the other party members). A lot of that dialogue shed new light, offered new perspectives and insight, on various aspects of the character (the circumstances of Revan's original fall to the Dark Side of the Force, Revan's intentions with the Jedi Civil War, and so on) and it conveyed a sense that Revan's actions and legacy were enough to leave their mark on the galaxy five years later. On top of that, Revan was a significant aspect of the Exile's backstory and character development. It certainly didn't seem to me that the writers "dropped" Revan's character just because the character never appeared in person. Revan's "presence" in Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords was actually something that's stuck with me most about the game. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> There was about two lines of dialogue spoken by Kreia in the last conversation before she pops her clogs, but if you think that's masterful storytelling, then sic erat in fatis. I don't. I think the writers either decided, or were told, to avoid all meaningful references to the first game, and -

Do not mock the Holy Trinity! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You're incorrigible. But funny. Hate one another. But now that you bring it up, a suitably evil and manipulative DSer should be able to turn his companions against each other, for fun and profit. -

kotor 2 restoration WIP
metadigital replied to Darth Tratious's topic in Star Wars: General Discussion
Not necessarily middle ground. She just harped on you when you were a stupid evil jerk. If you were an evil jerk but did something smart, she didn't. It's just when she felt you were doing something dumb or not thinking things through. Or atleast that's my take on her. :D <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Kreia was the One True Prophet, the Vox Magnus. She has laid down her life for the cause of all free-thinkers, who wish to determine their own fate. Join us, take arms against the evil autocrat and its pawns: the Force and FSs! -
Here are some baddies for my d20 System Game
metadigital replied to 6 Foot Invisible Rabbit's topic in Pen-and-Paper Gaming
That's not an easy game. No munchkinism to be had there. You'd even have to work out a general equation for calculating action points for higher level character creation (subtracting an "average" number per level) ... I take it that the Sanity points (or whatever they were called) are a secret attribute known only to the GM, and when the PC adds just one cybernetic bit too much, blammo!: derange-city. -

As long as you didn't have any overwelming urges to annex the Sudetenland, you should be fine. "We had a few drinks, a few laughs ... next thing you know we're in Czechoslovakia ..."

metadigital replied to teegees's topic in Star Wars: General Discussion
Now you are putting words into my posts. I never even suggested the merest possiblity that the thought had begun to cross my mind to make the point that the game was "entirely devoid of any substance throughout." Kreia was a magnificent improvement on the one-dimensional caricatures of the first game (and all the films); she had some genuine light and shade, and it was such a pity that the potential was never really built upon in a meaningful way. So, too, the the eponymous "Sith Lords", who ended up being one-and-a-half hack'n'slash confrontations. The influence system was a good idea, too. It just didn't go anywhere, and didn't make sense in the format that was delivered. I would never try to "convert" -

It wasn't an insult; then again, I suppose relying on argumentum ad ignorantiam will only lead to one outcome. Why don't you use that incredible intellect of yours and look it up? In case you have forgotten, there is the sum total of all human knowledge at your disposal. Are you stupid or idle? -

Wow! So the action points don't rejuvenate! That's a totally different ball'o'wax. Do they roll-over to the next level if you don't spend them? -
Any and all contributions graciously accepted.

No, I think what they were doing was trying to provide a nice euphemism for every "type" of character, so that no-one would feel left out (and be horribly scarred for life by the experience). After all, Psych for the general public is about tendencies, not absolute labels. But people hear "Obsessive Compulsive tendencies" and think they're an undiagnosed serial killer ...
