Funks Posted February 17, 2005 Posted February 17, 2005 Does anyone play Pazzak? I mean, really? I gave it a go a few times back in KOTOR1. But I'm sorry to say, it bored me. I wanted to get back in the arena. I never gave it another go in KOTORII. Did anyone else? Just interested.
Aegis Posted February 17, 2005 Posted February 17, 2005 Hmm, is there any reason not to? Not for fun, of course, but I play until the other guy (or gal, or thing in some cases) gives up. I never turn down a chance to make money or get more items, especially not as a LS character, where you have to be disgustingly generous and turn down rewards all the time.
Hallowed_be_thy_name Posted February 17, 2005 Posted February 17, 2005 i played it a bit. There are some new cards which make it slightly more tactical...
zeroFantasy Posted February 17, 2005 Posted February 17, 2005 it's boring! I'd rather help people if I need money
Daaave Posted February 17, 2005 Posted February 17, 2005 No it's sooooooooo boring, and the computer cheats. Just because you're a bit thinner than your even fatter mum it doesn't mean you're in excellent physical shape, if you could fit through the door and view the normal people you'd notice that cheeseburger boy. Squid suck.
Kor Qel Droma Posted February 17, 2005 Posted February 17, 2005 It's lame, I admit, but better than swoop racing Jaguars4ever is still alive. No word of a lie.
Aegis Posted February 17, 2005 Posted February 17, 2005 Meh, both pazaak and swoop racing is ridiculously easy if you ask me. Pazaak is a bit more difficult because it's random, but it can be easily fixed with the right cards (for me, that's the +/- cards and the special tie-breaker card you can get).
Daaave Posted February 17, 2005 Posted February 17, 2005 Yeah they did screw up swoop racing in KOTOR 2. Thought it was good in KOTOR 1 they should have just kept it the same.

Tanuvein Posted February 18, 2005 Posted February 18, 2005 Yeah they did screw up swoop racing in KOTOR 2. Thought it was good in KOTOR 1 they should have just kept it the same. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Swoop Racing sucks in both, more so in the new one. Pazaak is better in the new one, but still seems cheap some times. I played it like 20-30 times though.
BattleCookiee Posted February 18, 2005 Posted February 18, 2005 Swoop racing a lot worse Also pazaak has decreased interest, as it is way to fast and annoying now with its new skin. Only played it to get stuff at Dantooine and to win the Dancer at Telos to dance for me and give lots of money.
missedtackle Posted February 18, 2005 Posted February 18, 2005 If you need money, the Handmaiden robe trick is the way to go....
Jedi Master D Murda Posted February 18, 2005 Posted February 18, 2005 I've never played pazaak except once in K1, probably my first playthrough. That game is just dumb. I prefer swoop racing but it's pretty much useless in this game.
Unabomber Posted February 18, 2005 Posted February 18, 2005 The Pazaak got a bit more interesting with the flip cards, as well as the golden card (I only had to beat one opponent to get that card from the Champ, and even then, maybe I should have done the dark side option and simply have him killed by the thugs). While I enjoyed the game itself, during my first two playthroughs (haven't finished the second one yet), I really didn't want to take the time away from adventuring to play Pazaak. I know I'm probably missing out on some good $$$, but money shouldn't be much of an issue. You're going to get a lot of armor that can be sold for some decent credits, along with various weaponry that commands a nice price, regardless of whether you go light or dark.
Darth333 Posted February 18, 2005 Posted February 18, 2005 I play pazaak only when it adds something to the storyline such as the Dancer on Telos or the Champ at the pazaak deck on Nar Shadaa. Since I hate swoop racing and only want the credits (Onderon pays quite well), I made an easy swoop racing mod... Starwarsknights.com - Learning to mod - Kotor modding en espa
cewekeds Posted February 18, 2005 Posted February 18, 2005 I play pazaak. I like black jack also. I hated it in KOTOR 1 because it was so slow.
AngryTarsier Posted February 18, 2005 Posted February 18, 2005 I love pazaak 2 be honest, its a game of chance and well nice training actually almost like blackjack or lucky nine or seven... maybe because I like to play with cards.. if I get bored with adventuring then I play pazaak...
Darth Credulous Posted February 18, 2005 Posted February 18, 2005 I built the best deck I could in KOTOR 1 - and played swoop racing a lot - and after a lot of aggro finally defeated every pazaak player in the game enough times to make them quit. This was not to entertain myself - more to spite the game, in fact. There was no way I was going to get sucked back into that in KOTOR 2.
lothos Posted February 18, 2005 Posted February 18, 2005 Well, if comes down to choosing between pazaak or swoop-racing, I'd choose pazaak (amazingly, I do find pazaak fun too). Besides, it is an easy way to make some quick creds, especially with that Ithorian on Dantooine near the Ebon Hawk's landing pad.
Iseo Tiakan Posted February 18, 2005 Posted February 18, 2005 I rather enjoy pazaak, and have gotten pretty good at it. The computer doesn't cheat as badly as in the first game, when it would give you higher cards in order to play from behind.

Except for the fact that I hate the new background and the fast pace, the fact that the start is NOT always yours, helps get the "cheating PC" fealing away...
