Jediphile - I think your post has calmed my thoughts about KotOR II, and has shead some logic to some of my thinking.. Thank You!  (w00t)

You're welcome. I guess I just love speculating about the surprises they have in story. Not that I like games that are intentionally mysterious and deliberately leave things vague and unsaid. But I don't get that impression in K2.

The only part of the game that was a waste of time was Peragus. Its boring that's the only reason I don't play KOTOR 2 more. I played it twice and I cannot bare Peragus to play it anymore.

The KOTOR series could have gotten much more respect without the complete bombshell that was KOTOR2.

 

I personally would have waited another 2-6 months for them to finish all of the scenes and make the gameplay smoother. If the game was fully completed with all of the cut content, no doubt that it would have won much much more awards.

Oh my God man, the difference on Xbox to PC of Soldier of Fotune is just like Halo.

 

Halo is Awesome On Xbox but SUCKKKKKS on PC....

 

Soldier of fortune 2 is Awesome on PC but SUCKKKSSS on xbox!

We need a Halo thread. I don't feel like running over to Bungie just to get my Halo fix. *Wanders off to create thread* See y'all there!

The game won RPG of the Year awards so it wasn't a complete bombshell.

 

The reality is that when the game was in development, fans on this board did scream for an early release. I suggested an early release would hurt the game. Most people didn't seem to want to wait longer. And LucasArts didn't seem to want to pay to finish the game.

They're taking advice from Microsoft.

 

Gamers shouldn't wish for something to be rushed and developers shouldn't rush their creation. Patience is a virtue.

It's just our luck that Lucasarts decided to listen to the n00bs who wanted phat l00t, uber levels and a rushed game, rather than those of us who wanted a complete game. <_<

Oh well, it's over, back to reality..until K3 comes out!

Here is hoping that K3 comes out!

K2 was actually quite respectable given that it only had a 1 year development cycle. That being said, by the time you reach the end of the game, its 1 year dev. cycle becomes rather apparent. Also, the problem with the KotOR games (as with the Matrix movies), is that people hold it to too high a standard.

Too each their own.

The game was great, but K2 could have been done a lot better. But this has been said about 49,000 times before so I'll just leave my opinion at that.

K2 did challenge K1 in some ways in terms of dialogue choices and rather than taking you through the game spontaneously, allows you flexibility in customising your character's abilities. The only thing about that is that at the starting screen when my character played as a Sentinel, Guardian or Consular, their clothes looked almost the same. Where is the sense of variety in that?
