JediMafia Posted August 8, 2004 Posted August 8, 2004 You have to be pretty nieve to not expect a plot twist in the sequel or should I call it a v1.5 not a "full" sequel Since Blizzard & Lucas Arts bascialy gave Obsidian the engine, models, art, and Lucas the Idea. It amounts to a painter being given a canvas, some, paint, a brush, and Lucas saying paint some fruit but since they had restrictions from Lucas they said but no grapes, and there must be an apple in the painting. Everything else is oiginal by Obsidian which is not much I expect for KOTOR 2 to be a huge let down, lets face it the Dev is lazy come on 2+ years to work on the engine and the can't get colored saber glows to work and light up dark caves, "Everyone and their grand mother know that lightsabers CAST A GLOW" If this is left out Obsidian wins for biggest whimps. Yeah they are touting or tuting their own horn by saying they have bigger worlds and less loading times, and a farther draw distance. For me that was all more than enough in part 1. I would have preffered the option for hoods up or down, an extra party member, xbox live functionality, custome hilts, space combat. anything except the weak stuff they put in. And expect a major plot twist, its the series signature like mario with no mush rooms, Halo with no guns, Metal Gear with out sneaking. Dare I say we get the option to join the Sith Lords: There I said it sorry for the spoiler.
Darth Sun_Tzu Posted August 8, 2004 Posted August 8, 2004 Not another big rant! Your last one didn't achieve much now, did it? Another great idea by the people who brought you beer milkshakes!

Name the last xbox game Obsidian made? Have they even stated they are using "bump mapping" on xbox as musch as I can tell the drawn distances look equal to part 1 when campared head to head, i.e. to screenshot to screenshot. someone should start a new topic "The Five Best Things KOTOR 2 has over KOTOR 1" (I doubt people can list more than 2 things "worth listing"
Darth Sun_Tzu Posted August 8, 2004 Posted August 8, 2004 If you thing KotOR2 is gonna be so bad. Why are you even here? Or are you just a sook?

Lords is a gender refernce which identifies only with the males. Sure females can play dark side but they won't a a Lord they can be the wife of a Sith Lord. P.S. is it me or from the released art I think that the Dark masked sith and the ligh "good" blonde chick are one in the same.sure they drawn battling but that may be just a mataphor.

Hoods 8. Apprentices 9. More Sabre colours (not one I'm bothered about but is quite popular). 10. More than two endings. Do you want any more?

JediMafia Posted August 8, 2004 Author Posted August 8, 2004 Those are all "improved" been there done that stuff I should have clarrified by suggesting new unique cool WOW factor stuff.

The_Prodigal_Knight Posted August 8, 2004 Posted August 8, 2004 Every company has to start somwhere. And from what i`ve seen to this day: Obsidian is a company that is dedicated to bringing a top-notch game. And i think they will.

Ivan the Terrible Posted August 8, 2004 Posted August 8, 2004 Storming a company's message board, demanding new features be added (not suggesting), and then calling the game 'Version 1.5' because they didn't listen to you is the height of obnoxiousness. May I suggest never involving yourself in Diplomacy? "Your country will accept this treaty I wrote RIGHT NOW! No? Well, your country sucks anyway." I made this half-pony half-monkey monster to please you But I get the feeling that you don't like it What's with all the screaming? You like monkeys, you like ponies Maybe you don't like monsters so much Maybe I used too many monkeys Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you?
