Lohengrin

Il play LS with LS ending first. I tried playing DS in the first game once but didnt enjoy it, so I reloaded the temple scene and chose to go with Bastilla, just to see the DS ending. It reminded me more of "Triumph of the will" than I was comfortable with. Wheter I will play trough Sith Lords as DS will depend on how the darkside is presented, and how different it is from playing the game as LS.

Her name is Kreia. No, Kreia is the older jedi woman. The white womans name apparantly begins with an A.

Brian Menze wrote this in a thread in the wot forum: If Chris Avellone had Ayn Rand in mind, he never mentioned it to me. I've never heard of her, so in now way was she inspiration on my end. Still, the images you've seen thus far of Atton, are a little on the "unfinished" side. Without going into it, Atton's face was having texture and character rigging problems. This, of course, will be fixed

PC players tend to like the card game and dislike the other two mini games. Xbox players tend to like the racing and dislike the card game. How do you know?

Id like to see the opportunity to get ds points for acting in anger or affection to. This is a major theme in the movies but was sorely lacking in Kotor. Maybe something like being being confronted with slavers, somewhere were slavery is legal, who arent aggressive but refuses to release their captives. The only way to save the slaves would be to kill the captors and get ds points for doing so. The lack of any such real dilemmas made being ls in kotor very easy. The way to the darkside shouldnt only be through being mean and sadistic, but also through being unable to compromise on your own ideals and ignoring the jedi strictures.

Then why did you click on it? The title leaves little doubt as to what kind of thread this is.

Vader doesnt seem to be lacking in force powers in the movies. I havent seen anyone else stop blaster shots with their hands either. Im pretty sure he can absorb quite a lot of force lightening.

Since Revan is different in each individual players game, its impossible to compare him/her to official characters. That being said, Vader would win.

Can I borrow your crystal Ball? I want to win the Lottery. The irony of Drakron using this argument makes me laugh. No offense, but that rhetoric coming from someone who assumed the worst about the story in kotor 2, seemingly immediatly after reading the small amount of information in the EGM article, and then treats this assumption as if it where fact, is pretty rich.

Once upon a time in the west would actually have been a very different movie without the soundtrack. Leone knew how much Morricones music could add to his films, so he let him compose the score before he shot any scenes and then adapted the scenes and the movie to the music. For me, the sound design always was an important part of SW. Not only the music but also the sound of the lightsabers, the engine roar of the tie fighters etc. There isnt any other setting that, for me, is defined so much by its soundscape.

I was actually wondering about that one, the people on Taris (the "aliens") gave me the impression through dialogue, that the Sith did not like non-humans, as in being discriminating. Yet on Korriban you run into somebody like Yuthura (spelling?) Two different story/level designers ? I am uncertain about their attitude towards non-humans. They certainly seem to favor humans but, as you say, there is Yuthura Ban in Kotor, and I am quite certain that Darth Maul isnt human either. Maybe they they find a few other alien species acceptable.

Yeah. They are basically nazis in space with force powers. Only thing missing is the racial ideology.

They need to give him a personality. I didnt observe any at all in the first game.

We know for sure that you will be able to tell the game wheter you played as ds or ls and wheter Revan was male or female. Check the questions to devs sticky.

No, I can see it with my free membership.

Except the fact that they actually do read their own forum and do post answers seemingly whenever they have time and opportunity. And I, for one, appreciate it a lot.

Will you be able to tell the game wether you played Revan as male or female?

Hmmm....Lemme make an argument. "I joined the Sith because the Republic is a stagnating relic of the past. For years, they've limped from one war to the next, barely surviving each one and yet never being prepared for the next. The Galactic Senate has thus proven itself ineffective in the face of change, a bureacratic mess which exists only to leech off the people for it's own benefit; what the galaxy needs now is decisiveness, action, and direct leadership. What we need is a leader who can make firm decisions and have them carried through without all the red tape, a (wo)man who can unite the people into a new golden age. What the Galaxy needs is Revan!" There was some hinting made at this viewpoint, for example with the Selkath judges, but it was never really carried through. The efforts to present this charade by the Sith themselves were pretty feeble to non-existent. And I would argue that even in the case of Nazi Germany, Rwanda, etc. there was a half-way reasonable ideology being put forward rather than just 'let's kill people'; if Hitler had stepped before the masses and said, 'Let's crush this puny Continent, my minions! We shall bring a new age of darkness to Europe, and all the world shall despair!', I doubt he'd have gotten much support. With a villain like Sarevok, who's inner circle was so small and his 'evil' plans unknown to the vast majority of the guys who were going to fight for him, such an approach can work since it's never expressed outside of that inner circle. But Revan and Malek were leading an army of millions upon millions of soldiers! In answer to your last question, to subjugate a galaxy and crew all those ships being churned out by the Star Forge, you need a lot of people, and you just aren't going to get a very dedicated or large group if your only argument is that you want to enslave the galaxy. I think its reasonable to assume that if Malak conquered the galaxy, your average sith trooper would gain quite a few priviliges. I dont think most of them need much more incentive than that. Anyway, the sith troopers on Taris seemed human enough.For example the woman in the cantina, who complained about the work hours and monotony of sith duty, clearly had just made an ill-informed career choice.

From the article: But we do know that you won`t play the same character and the story does not pick up where the last game left off. This was a tough but necessary design choice, according to Avellone, because

That's what I was thinking, though I don't mind if the Revan in KOTOR 2 isn't my Revan from KOTOR 1. Can't be everyone's Revan, afterall. As I understand the article you will be able to tell the game how you played Revan in Kotor. I hope that is correct because for me it would be a big continuity issue if Revan appears and is nothing like I played her in nr 1. If they cant in any way factor in the way different people have played Revan in the original, then they should have him/her not appear at all IMO.
