JediMasterRevan Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 I think Kotor because it was the original and I don't like sequels all that much when it comes to games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raven Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 I think Kotor because it was the original and I don't like sequels all that much when it comes to games. yeah, but you see, obsidian seems like a better developer and they seem to listen to the people, so i think kotor2 will be a much better game with a better story. the first game's story was horrible, and there were countless bugs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judge Hades Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 I am going to say the first game. The second is a hand me down game to a fledging company. Sure it has some good veteren designers and programmers in it, but it is still a fledgling company. Also the game has more restrictions in character development and I just hate that. At least in the first one you aren't forced to play a Jedi from the beginning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seth Tansill Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 Agreed. And Obsidion already have the engine developed so they just need to smooth out elements from the original engine and focus on the storyline, with plenty of feedback from the community on the actual gameplay issues.

Judge Hades Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 You are still forced to play a Jedi. One of the things I hated in the first game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seth Tansill Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 Why are you playing star wars if you dont want to become a jedi??? Baffling. If you want a game where you want freedom to become what you want without becoming a jedi, play Star Wars Galaxies or something... anyway, I cant see how it hinders playing the game that much, since instead of the 'treat injury' skill you get force heal or drain. The whole point of KotOR is that it is story driven, and being a jedi is an essential part of the story, I'm afraid. Not surprising since the game is (Jedi) 'Knights of the Old Republic' battling Dark Jedi and Sith Lords... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judge Hades Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 Sorry, Seth, but I don't play MMORPGs. ALso there is more to Star Wars than Jedi. If that wasn't the case every character would be a Jedi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adria Teksuni Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 Out of curiousity, Hades, have you checked out LA's "Republic Commando" at all? That might be more up your alley. Never assume malice when stupidity is to blame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adria Teksuni Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 Okay, so there isn't a good SW CRPG out there for you? Or do you have a recommendation? Never assume malice when stupidity is to blame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raven Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 Sorry, I mostly just play CRPGs. the only mmorpg i play is runescape, but i only do cause its free but console rpgs are the best, especially for those with a slow computer or those who dont like that monthly fee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recommend to Obsidian not to force character develope on the player. Let the player develop his character has he or she wants to. Don't force us to be Force users, don't force us to play munchkin characters, and make the game a challenge. If the player wants to make a munchkin character he or she will, but don't force the rest of us who don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adria Teksuni Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 I see what you're saying, but at the same time, I have to disagree. KoTOR 1 and 2 are (as previously stated) about the Knights of the Old Republic, so... Still, I know I'd be interested in a "basic" SW RPG that let you follow your own path. SW:G was fun, but not quite what I was looking for. Never assume malice when stupidity is to blame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too late for that since in The Munchkin Lords we alreadyare forced to start in a jedi class and there are epic levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kefka Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 I don't care about titles. They are meaningless to me. All I care about is the game itself. yeah, and Kotor is about Jedi. The 'Knights' of the title. So, it isn't a meaningless description. If you don't want to play a Jedi you're out of luck. Buy another game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I meant was, the game itself is about the Jedi Knights, so it's somewhat inferred that you'd be one of them...ah well Never assume malice when stupidity is to blame.

Your Execution Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 I don't see how it is possible to compare the two games already when you haven't even played Kotor 2 yet. I like to play a game first,then form an opinion about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkreku Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 I know and it sucks. That is why I will be skipping this title. To sum it up a little: you hate playing a Jedi, you won't be buying this title, you hated KotOR (after you became a Jedi/Sith).. Remind me again why you are here then, writing post after post after post with the same whiny message? Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!
