Chaotic Neutral... the best alignment of all! Which I guess means I would be a Grey Jedi?

My first playthrough of the game was as a lightsider, and I thought it was the way the game was meant to be played, given the kind of emotions it stirred up in me. I didn't want revenge, so much as I wanted to know the Councils reasons for not getting involved and staying home in comfort while we fought and died to keep the galaxy safe. I was so convinced that I (er, the Exile) did the right thing by fighting in the wars, I was extremely defiant and self-assured early on, like when I talked to Atris. And then I learned of all that Malachor wrought, all that happened because of that one war and that final battle... I (er, my character) was so upset by the constant mentioning of the effects of the wars that by the time I met the masters on Dantooine, I just gave up and didn't put up a fight. Then Kreia walks in, slaughters everyone, and says that she knows now why I didn't follow Revan and Malak after the war... I was weak and afraid. Maybe I was. That part of the game was one of the best things in it, to me anyway. To get back to the question, I think it's best played LS

That's the whole point of Atton asking you about your lightsaber...

When playing as an unskilled character, I prefer to take Kreia and Bao-Dur. Bao-Dur for his skills, Kreia for her Mentor ability and Force Chain ability. When I play as a Sentinel, I alternate characters just for the hell of it.

That's not entirely true. Halo 2 had a bug that resulted in the HUD being stretched when played on 480p screens, but a patch was released on Live that corrected the issue. I believe many games that have bonus downloadable content also include technical patches/bugfixes. It shouldn't need to be done on a console, but if the developer does miss a bug/glitch, it's nice to get a fix over Live. It's unfortunate this isn't possible for TSL.

Ditto. What would be the cause of this? Bad discs? If you save before using the computer, have it explode, then reload and try again with the same operators, will it work?

Everyone who plays this game really should get in the habit of making a save in a new slot every 15 minutes or so. You should have more than enough space for all those saves, and if you discover a glitch, they'll keep you from having to start all over. Nar Shaddaa was messed up for me, but since I made a save right before I entered the Docks, I lost only a half-hour of play time. Save constantly.

Did the cutscene with Mira and Hanharr play when you entered the Docks? On my second game that cutscene never showed, and I had to go back to an earlier save from before I entered the Docks. When I went in that time, the cutscene played fine, and after doing the quests the message arrived as it should. Good thing it worked right the first time I played the game, or I would have been utterly lost.

I thought that Revan learned of the Sith on Malachor V and Kreia was just one of his earlier teachers, but she wasn't a Sith at that time. She was a Jedi historian, much like Atris. Did I miss something?

The Handmaiden can teach you Battle Precognition, which lets you add your Wisdom modifier to your AC, as long as you aren't wearing armor. Useful for Consular characters.
