Should Lightsabre colour crystals give bonuses?

Lightsabers already get TOO MANY bonuses. Are characters are getting sick.

They hand out enough Godly Crystals of the Whale as it is......

I'm guessing Sith use Red because it reflects their power base - rage, aggression. Same thing for the Jedi (blue) because it reflects clamness, clear thinking etc. After all, thats why the Dark Side is represented by Red and the Light Side is represented by Blue.

 

As for the colour bonuses, I actually liked KotOR1 linking colours with certain classes - i'd never thought about that before, so I figured there could be bonuses which would aid the Jedi/Sith that would normally carry that coloured sabre. As for the size of the bonus, that of course would be up to the exceptionally talented people at Obsidian :)

 

No, just because George Lucas wanted to color code everything, like we couldn't figure out what side someone was on by paying attention.

It's not colour coding so we wouldn't get confused.

 

He's playing to archetypes. Did you think it was a coincidence that Darth Vader has a deep powerful voice, is tall wearing a suit that is entirely black?

Imagine Vader if Padme had survived,

Vader "(deep Voice) HONEY!? I'm going out to slaughter some innocent protestors! Be back tonight!"

Padme "You better not. Otherwise Luke will grow up to kill you!"

Vader "No he won't He's too much of a cutiepie to do that to his own dad."

Padme "gripegrumblegripinggrumbleingI'mgoingtokillthatprickgripegrumble"

Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.

Exactly. No need to add even more insane bonuses just because someone happens to use a blue lightsaber rather than a green one.

I liked in KOTOR how your initial LS color was based upon class. It represented your standing.

I was hoping for the same thing in TSL when Atton was asking about your original lightsaber. Too bad Atris wouldn't give it back to you. <_<

Eh, who cares that's what and RPG is all about.

 

????!?!??!?!?!??!

 

RPGs are not about getting phat powerups and phat lewt.

 

Go play Diablo 2.

 

Uh...sorry? Phat lewt?...Go play Grand Theft Auto.

IF we have more bonuses in the game, then make the game harder please.

 

 

like if you are lvl 50, then have lvl 50 bad guys with uber stats.

Anyway; i agree. RPGS aren't about boni.
