[Nartwak]

Hey, when I signed up for this class they said there wouldn't be any pop quizzes.

[RevanRedefined]

Whoa whoa whoa, wait a second..THIS IS A CLASS?!?!?!

[Ekkest]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

[Titosros]

Damn those pop quizes.

[Nartwak]

Don't tell me... you two haven't been taking notes?

 

Oh man.

[RealTalk]

I think this is a good thread.

 

1. What elements in 'KotOR II' did you find the most impressive? Most of the story up untill about 75% of the way thru. New items/powers. Being able to train and turn your companions.

2. What was your favorite moment? Hearing Mandalore start talking, haha, i was a huge canderous fan in Kotor 1.

3. What location would you have like to see more extensively? Onderon

4. What was your favorite Robe to wear? Nomi's (F) or Baran Do Sage (M)

5. What was your favorite Lightsaber Crystal? Cyan

6. Did you prefer to play as a male or female PC? Females better for exile

7. If there was (one) conclusion you would like to have seen what or whose would it be? Dont understand this question, it seems too similar to the one below.

8. At this point, you know about the missing content, out of everything that was edited, what (one) element would you have like to see completed? HK factory.

9. Out of all the Star Wars games, and without listing them all, what would you rate this game? 4th

10. Despite the game being as it is, what would you consider to be the most successfull addition to the series? Being able to train your companions as jedi.

11. Who was you favorite character, and why? Mandalore, canderous/mandalore is just the coolest character in either game, besides revan. Atton comes in second for kotor2

12. What (one) element in 'KotOR I' would you liked to have seen in KotOR II? Why? A real ending cinematic. And Jolee Bindo. Most important though, what II lacked was a huge turn like we had in I. Me personally i was clueless about being Revan up untill that cinematic started, and it still gives me the chills watching it.

[Iphigenia]

1. What elements in 'KotOR II' did you find the most impressive? The influence system, despite its flaws. The new advanced classes.

2. What was your favorite moment? Bringing HK-47 to "life."

3. What location would you have like to see more extensively? Korriban...

4. What was your favorite Robe to wear? Probably the simple Dark Jedi robe.

5. What was your favorite Lightsaber Crystal? Silver and Kaiburr.

8. At this point, you know about the missing content, out of everything that was edited, what (one) element would you have like to see completed? Just One! HK Factory.

9. Out of all the Star Wars games, and without listing them all, what would you rate this game? Probably second best.

10. Despite the game being as it is, what would you consider to be the most successfull addition to the series? Overall, yes.

11. Who was you favorite character, and why? HK-47, because I love him

12. What (one) element in 'KotOR I' would you liked to have seen in KotOR II? Why? ROMANCE!

 

Did I pass?

[Nartwak]

Did I pass?

79%. Pass.

[EnderAndrew]

1. The dialogue and influence system.

 

2. Watching my wife turn Atton to the Dark Side.

 

3. Most of them. I think Korriban was glossed over, Dantooine was a shell of it's former self. Dxun/Onderon were well done. Nar Shadda was time intensive and fun, but it didn't seem like the Nar Shadda I know and love.

 

4. I don't recall.

 

5. Named crystal

 

6. Male PC but I haven't tried Female PC on KOTOR:2

 

7. I'm fine with the story ending where it did, but the final dialogue with Kreia/Traya was uncharacteristicly weak, and I was shocked that Mira and T3 show up on Malachor V, but don't get resolved at all.

 

8. I can't pick one thing. The glaring ommissions all remain glaring ommissions.

 

9. I can't compare Tie Fighter to KOTOR, but overall it's one of the better games.

 

10. The usage of skills in KOTOR:2. I think influence was a really good idea, but it's not perfectly implemented yet.

 

11. The Exile. His past makes you really stop and think about the decisions you are making in the game. Oddly enough, when I met the Jedi Council on Dantooine, I really stood behind going to war, and disagreed with most of their decisions. However, in realizing that my PC was responsible for the wound in the Force that had caused the death of so many, I voluntarily agreed to be fully cut off from the Force.

 

12. Polish.

12. What (one) element in 'KotOR I' would you liked to have seen in KotOR II? Why? none really...

[Darkside]

Ack. Too early in the morning... brain fried... too much text... be back later with caffine... ok, ok... here goes...

 

1) the influence system and new uses for skills

 

2) the scene on Dantooine where it switches back and forth from the masters to Kreia talking with the sad music in the background. It was unusually cinematic for Kotor 2.

 

3) Definitely Nar Shaddaa. I would have liked to see some of the more upscale sectors.

 

4) Ossus Keeper Robes (though I never found the unique ones like Revan's robes, Jolee's Robes, etc.)

 

5) mine.

 

6) female.

 

7) a real conclusion to an actual romance with Atton (like the one where he and Exile walk off into the sunset, okay so no sunset).

 

HK factory.

 

9) 2nd (after Shadows of the Empire. I don't even remember if it was good, just that it was one of my first video games and my very first Star Wars experience.)

 

10) Infuence system. needs work but...

 

11) Toss-up between Atton and Kreia. Kreia was by far the deepest and most meaningful character, but Atton is just so lovable.

 

12) Err... uh... a complete ending? There really wasn't a lot missing other than the cut content, and I can live with that.

Helping the Jedi masters while DS so I could slaughter them all at once

Dark Jedi regardless of alignment.It looks like My trenchcoat.

Male because I am.Although female does get some good lines

7. If there was (one) conclusion you would like to have seen what or whose would it be? Just One!

Mandalore's quest.

8. At this point, you know about the missing content, out of everything that was edited, what (one) element would you have like to see completed? Just One!

I'd have to say the ending.It wasn't that bad,but it could've been better.

9. Out of all the Star Wars games, and without listing them all, what would you rate this game?

1st.It's more replayable than KOTOR and I haven't played any of the others.

10. Despite the game being as it is, what would you consider to be the most successfull addition to the series?

Influence.I liked the way your actions had an effect on the people around you.Okay,it wasn't perfect,but it was still a great idea.

HK-47.He's got that whole Terminator thing about him.

12. What (one) element in 'KotOR I' would you liked to have seen in KotOR II? Why?

Something like the scene atop the Star Forge Temple where the rest of the game is decided by one action.Having to stick to your chosen alignment can be quite limiting at times.

[Darth Kavar]

1. What elements in 'KotOR II' did you find the most impressive?

I can't really think of one so let's say all the things they didn't change from K1 (well maybe apart from item-creation which was a nice feature added in K2). I also liked the combat.

 

2. What was your favorite moment?

Sky Ramp + Palace (especially when DS cuz you get to fight Kavar in the end)

 

3. What location would you have like to see more extensively?

Nar Shaddaa - I mean all that was shown was some back-alleys of the planet. The damn refugee camp felt more 'alive' than the place where Kreia says 'it is the real Nar Shaddaa' where everyone of us was supposed to say whoo! nice!

 

4. What was your favorite Robe to wear?

I've made myself one custom using the model of Bandon's Armor but it was black and shined like armor. I mostly wear robes which look good, not give the best stats.

 

5. What was your favorite Lightsaber Crystal?

Orange and Violet

 

 

6. Did you prefer to play as a male or female PC?

Male. Simply cuz I am one plus I wouldn't like the idea of the male NPC's hitting on me.

 

7. If there was (one) conclusion you would like to have seen what or whose would it be? Just One!

Yes - a real Darkside conclusion. Not the - oh I'm so angry stupid rage guy who killed everybody everywhere and left Malachor intact and lives there with only a couple of Storm Beasts plus doesn't know what to do next now that everyone's dead.

 

8. At this point, you know about the missing content, out of everything that was edited, what (one) element would you have like to see completed? Just One!

Ehh... M4-78? Simply cuz it would add most to the game. But I doubt that would ever be restored so let's say the HK Factory.

 

9. Out of all the Star Wars games, and without listing them all, what would you rate this game?

Second best.

 

10. Despite the game being as it is, what would you consider to be the most successfull addition to the series?

There are alot of things which I could write here but they just weren't completed.

It would be: Atris, Nihilus or Sion but all of them didn't just receive the amount of attention they deserve.

So uhm... Robes?

 

11. Who was you favorite character, and why?

It would be Atris really but her meaning just fell short when suddenly all that began to matter was Kreia.

It would be Nihilus but... as above.

It would be Sion but he started whining.

So I say Vrook! :ph34r:

 

12. What (one) element in 'KotOR I' would you liked to have seen in KotOR II? Why?

You mean 'from' K1?

Then It'd be the attention brought to DS actions of your character. I mean you ussually got only one DS choice and 4 LS in K2.

Come on!

Plus manipulative options for your PC!

In K2 you get an invisible feat called 'Manipulation' with prerequisities: Kreia only dammit!

[Calax]

1. What elements in 'KotOR II' did you find the most impressive?

The depth that citidel station had in the beginning and watching things go downhill from there...

2. What was your favorite moment?

Watching disiple bow before me like the god that I am.

 

3. What location would you have like to see more extensively?

Onderon, They could have done a lot more with that due to the attention paid during the Sith War era comics.

4. What was your favorite Robe to wear?

The most powerful i could find in any given game.

 

5. What was your favorite Lightsaber Crystal?

The Characters one

6. Did you prefer to play as a male or female PC?

Male 5/7 games

 

7. If there was (one) conclusion you would like to have seen what or whose would it be? Just One!

The darkside conclusion, I always feel the DSers get left out.

 

8. At this point, you know about the missing content, out of everything that was edited, what (one) element would you have like to see completed? Just One!

Probably either remove any traces of the romances and put Malachor back or Put the romances in and yank Malachor.

 

9. Out of all the Star Wars games, and without listing them all, what would you rate this game?

5 or 6, I've played several better, several worse

 

10. Despite the game being as it is, what would you consider to be the most successfull addition to the series?

The new Feats, Finesse is always good in a blaster game.

 

11. Who was you favorite character, and why?

Handmaiden was fun, you could tank her and still have her turn people into balls of black and blue.

 

12. What (one) element in 'KotOR I' would you liked to have seen in KotOR II? Why?

the Romances oh god the romances.
