Volourn Posted October 17, 2006 Posted October 17, 2006 JE (#43) was deservedly placed ahead of the pathetic Oblivion (#57), and the good but heavily flawed KOTOR2 (#87). That's the good news. The bad news is that the fine but vastly overrated KOTOR1 will likely be higher on the list. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The list continues tomorrow!!! DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.
Darth Drabek Posted October 17, 2006 Posted October 17, 2006 KOTOR should be higher than JE. The characters were more memorable, the battles were more challenging, and the role-playing was better. JE had better graphics and art (the environments in particular were beautifully done), and I thought the stories of both were very good. In my opinion, JE was a great game, but not quite as good as KOTOR. baby, take off your beret everyone's a critic and most people are DJs

karka Posted October 17, 2006 Posted October 17, 2006 When it comes to characters, i find JE's characters much more memorable. I think they have more distinctive personalities. Well, except HK-47. I remember some tough fights i had in JE on the highest difficulty level. No matter what the difficulty setting is, Kotor is an easy game. Story wise, they have their own ups and downs. I can't say one is better than the other.

Tigranes Posted October 17, 2006 Posted October 17, 2006 Wait, since when do we care about IGN lists? Let's Play: Icewind Dale Ironman (Complete) Let's Play: Icewind Dale II Ironman (Complete) Let's Play: Divinity II (Complete) Let's Play: Baldur's Gate Trilogy Ironman - BG1 (Complete) Let's Play: Baldur's Gate Trilogy Ironman - BG2 (In Progress)
Volourn Posted October 17, 2006 Author Posted October 17, 2006 More than peoples' opinion shere. that's for sure. KOTOR better than JE. LOL That's hilarious. And, stupid IGN is dumb enough to agree with that assessment. JE > KOTOR Game over. DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.
Tigranes Posted October 17, 2006 Posted October 17, 2006 And here I thought using > with games is a silly idea to begin with. Ah well, that means I shouldnt' even be in this thread. Did Torment get any recognition, at least?

kumquatq3 Posted October 17, 2006 Posted October 17, 2006 JE (#43) was deservedly placed ahead of the pathetic Oblivion (#57), and the good but heavily flawed KOTOR2 (#87). Wait....those three games made the list of top 100 of all time? Yea....
Darth Drabek Posted October 17, 2006 Posted October 17, 2006 Better role-playing in JE? Come on, you had to pick from five or six pre-made character models to start. And the inventory? I don't remember even having much more than a weapon or two and some potions to manage. Ah well. We all know Volo believes a mind is like an electrical circuit: It works best when closed. They are both good games, but I think the ranking is justified. baby, take off your beret everyone's a critic and most people are DJs

Since when do character models have to do with role-playing? OMG You are worse than the Codex. Avatars = Role-playing now? L0LLERZ JE > KOTOR DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.
Darth Drabek Posted October 17, 2006 Posted October 17, 2006 First, I've never even been to the Codex. Second, all I'm saying is the avatar selection was a little weak compared to their past efforts. And no, that doesn't make or break the role-playing experience, but it's still an important part of character creation in today's games. Not as important as NPC dialogue or having multiple story paths, but still important. Go ahead and pimp your favorite games as much as you want, because we all expect you to, anyway. baby, take off your beret everyone's a critic and most people are DJs

Judge Hades Posted October 17, 2006 Posted October 17, 2006 I have to admit that I enjoyed JE more than KotOR 1.
alanschu Posted October 17, 2006 Posted October 17, 2006 This just seems like a thread created to start arguments.
Pop Posted October 17, 2006 Posted October 17, 2006 This just seems like a thread created to start arguments. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It's a thread made about completely arbitrary value judgements (an IGN list) Argument comes naturally to it.

Musopticon? Posted October 17, 2006 Posted October 17, 2006 You mean: to cause discussion? 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. A man who craves furry hentai. So let us go and embrace the rustling smells of unseen worlds

Judge Hades Posted October 17, 2006 Posted October 17, 2006 I think JE is in the right place but KotOR 1 needs to be a lot lower. Lower than KotOR 2.
Dark_Raven Posted October 17, 2006 Posted October 17, 2006 Nah not really. Hades was the life of the party. RIP You'll be missed.
