thepixiesrock Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 It probably did not have blood squirting all over the place like Bloodlines and Half-Life 2. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yeah, and what is your point? Dyan never said that he wanted blood to squirt all over the place.

Dark_Raven Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 The point is, if you want to give the game realism by hacking off limbs, than it should show blood squirting all over. Hades was the life of the party. RIP You'll be missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thepixiesrock Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 Well, he didn't say anything about "realism". Also, if we were going to get "realism" we would get realism in the StarWars universe, where when you cut off a limb with a lightsaber, there is not blood squirting.

Wild Storm Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 Only with vibroblades. Lightsabers cut straight through and basically seal the veins. Ever notice how Luke isn't squirting blood? Or there isn't a waterfall of blood when Maul falls into the shaft? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dyan Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 Now, if only the Devs would read and take note... . But thanks <{POST_SNAPBACK}> They would have to be making the game first... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Goes without saying. As to the blood thing - well, as Wild Storm said, it would only be the vibroblades that would cause bloodloss. HK47: Commentary: It is not possible to destroy the master. It is suggested that you run while my blasters warm, meatbags. Bastila to Revan: You are easily the vainest, most arrogant man I have ever met! Canderous to Bastila: Insults? Maybe if your master had trained your lightsaber to be as quick as your tongue you could have escaped those Vulkars, you spoiled little Jedi princess!

thepixiesrock Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 (edited) They would most likely make it so there is no blood loss though, because it is likely that they will want to keep the rating at teen.

LadyCrimson Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 Lightsabers cut straight through and basically seal the veins. They're laser-like and instantly cauterize wounds. Which is a great thing if you're going for a PG/PG-13 movie. " Personally, I have no need for big gouts of blood in my games...a little smudge or spray here and there, but no horror-movie amounts, plz. Doesn't turn me on and the realism factor...haha...if you want realism you shouldn't be able to carry multiple suits of armor+weapons+10,000 gold coins+ammo etc. in your 'inventory.' “Things are as they are.

thepixiesrock Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 The only purpose I would want to have a hood for is if it actually affected the people around you. Like, they wouldn't know who you were. But of course, they would need to have it so that people reacted to you, and stuff first. Like if you had a bounty on your head or something, you would need to wear a hood so people wouldn't recognize you.

Dark_Raven Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 (edited) Sci-fi movies would be dull if they didn't have huge explosions as ships were blown apart in space.

If they used the same one, than it may not do it justice. If they used one of the newer engines it may look quite good. Edited January 18, 2006 by Blood_Raven Hades was the life of the party.

Plano Skywalker Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 really good stuff there Dyan. I especially like the bit about choosing one's mentor....a REAL mentor who has alot in common with my character not a STORYTELLING DEVICE that pretends to be my mentor. Force Bonds....I agree, I don't want to see another Force Bond unless they turn it into a force power that I can actually use (like they did with Battle Meditation). I do not want 4 padawans but I like the idea that there are 4 people that have the *potential* to be my padawan depending on alignment, influence, and how I feel about it. and for non-padawans: dual-classing, dual-classing, dual-classing oh yeah, there should never be a complete dead-end on convos....even if the person doesn't particularly like you, you should be able to get *something* out them (i.e. fav food, political gossip, etc). And more cutscreens where they ask the PC stuff, even trivial stuff....the PC should not have to initiate all the small talk. and not just hoods and robes but undertunic and overtunic...I want a dark red undertunic and a bright red overtunic.
