Nur Ab Sal Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 Jade Empire surely is completely finished game without rushed release... And it still sucks when compared to unfinished, bugged and abandoned TSL. HERMOCRATES: Nur Ab Sal was one such king. He it was, say the wise men of Egypt, who first put men in the colossus, making many freaks of nature at times when the celestial spheres were well aligned. SOCRATES: This I doubt. We are hearing a child's tale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nur Ab Sal Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 I'd prefer to play unifished game that has interesting concepts than some lollypop kungfu HERMOCRATES: Nur Ab Sal was one such king.

Judge Hades Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 You see, I find unfinished games unrewarding and a waste of time. When I finish a game I want an ending. I want closure. I do not want a rushed ending that makes absolutely no freaking sense. KotOR 2 sucked. You might have enjoyed it but for me it was worthless.

Judge Hades Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 Like I said, I am no Bioware fanboy but I refuse to blind myself on which game is of better quality and which game was more fun to play. I am more of an Obsidian fanboy than Bioware than anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nur Ab Sal Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 I suffer becouse of TSL rushed ending, but Aurora Team soon will fix that. But no power in the universe will fix Jade Empire's triviality. HERMOCRATES: Nur Ab Sal was one such king. He it was, say the wise men of Egypt, who first put men in the colossus, making many freaks of nature at times when the celestial spheres were well aligned. SOCRATES: This I doubt.

Nur Ab Sal Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 That's no mod. That's restoration project. It restores official content that wasn't scripted becosue of rushed release.

Archmonarch Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 That reminds me of another point against JE: the endings. They were trivial and brought little if any closure to the game. In my mind, all fostered the question "What then?" There are various combinations for the NPC scrolls, yes, but they all focus on the major theme of: You are good, they support you. You are bad, they rebel against you/ You are dead, they mourn you and rebel against the new tyrant. Even the very short ending cinematics follow this formula. In the good ending, they pull down the statue of the emperor and bow down to you and your companions. In the evil ending, they cower in fear. And in the sacrificial ending, they erect a statue of you and live in fear of the new emperor. Not much variation there. And I find it kind of funny I find it kind of sad The dreams in which I'm dying Are the best I've ever had Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Musopticon? Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 That was a bit harsh, to tell the truth. Shoo, Ender. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears. I had to fight against blood thirsty wolves and rabid penguins to get my food. Those who were too weak to survive were sent to Sweden. It has made me the man I am today.

Volourn Posted September 1, 2005 Author Share Posted September 1, 2005 I'm a violent fanboy? Really? Tell me one person who I have physically assasulted over a BIO game. Just one. Plus, when do 'violent fanboys' not play two of their obects games, believe one game is below par, trash one expansion, rate one of their major games a 75%, and also be trahsed talked by one of the employees because I had the gall tomake fun of their games. R00fles! If that's being a fanboy, yup, that's me. And, besides, being called a fanboy by Roshan who types worse than I do and actually started a whole RELIGION over a silly game is hilarious!

Drakron Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 In the end its does not matter what Volourn thinks, as said 500,000 sales are pretty disapointing on a console title, expecialy considering BioWare usual sale numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
