KOTOR II

[timrpgland]

Ugh just a half hour more til I'm out of this jail and off to buy Sith Lords. Any first impressions?

[AChimp]

IS IT OUT FOR PC YET? >:

[Drev]

I thought it was illegal for Canadians to play video games. :(

That's a stupid law. :(

[adept_ninja]

It looks awesome. Im kinda sick of the amnesia stricken hero but I guess there is no other way to get the story rolling. I cant wait for this one but I have no $$ :(

[HickMan]

I'm hoping to get it for kimis

[adept_ninja]

Yeah I asked for it but I would like it now

[timrpgland]

Played it for 5 hours last night and got off the first planet. The game is essentially the same as I with some improvements. Which is actually a good thing. No lightsaber yet. :(

[N00bKill3R]

Exactly how gay is the first planet on a scale of Taris being the gayest ever.

[timrpgland]

It's pretty stale but definately alot of story popped at you compared to last. I'm gonna start playing it again now. I'll see how it progresses. I'm a fucking jedi, I want my lightsaber.

[Perndog]

My roommate is turning 20 on Saturday and his girlfriend is buying this game for him (and thus, for me too). :)

[HickMan]

Thumbs up for Perndog

[timrpgland]

Well this game deserves some more discussion even if it is just by me. With all the awesome games this year, this game is still up there with the best of the year.

The game is great but the story is slowly drifting a bit. I'm 40 hours in and should have it completed over the weekend. The Jedi prestige classes are a great addition (I'm a Jedi Guardian turned Jedi Watchman). The lightsabers are alot more customizable this time around as well.


SPOILER:






HK is back!!!

[AChimp]

MEATBAG :)

[James]

I really don't like how linear these games are. :/

[HickMan]

That's crazy :eek

[N00bKill3R]

So I copied this game to the ol' modded X-box and I was playing it and i'm not even off the mining planet thing and it FROZE!!! and it keeps freezing at the same part and that make me pretty upset >:

[AChimp]

You should be purchasing a game like KOTOR2 >:

Fag.

[N00bKill3R]

Your right... so exactly how many blowjobs did you give to raise the money for this game?

[AChimp]

I'm waiting until it comes out for PC because it will rock the cock. >:

[adept_ninja]

I just started now because my x-box broke but i got a new one. The game is awesome you start out getting jedi powers which is nice and theyre is a ton more powers and feats. They have a nice feature in this one where you can switch your weapons mid battle (you set it up before you go in)

[pjalne]

This game is so full of bugs it's ridiculous. Seriously, it's a great game, but you have to spend more time worrying about keeping a library of savegames than actually paying attention to the story.

[AChimp]

Filthy Norwegian lies. >:

I won't get this game until this semester is over because I know that with WoW and KOTOR2, I'd fail everything. :(

[pjalne]

Well, if you wait a bit, there should be plenty of patches available. Right now, pieces of dialogue fall out, tiles and textures are warped from time to time, the game crashes a lot, a bug in the racing game caused by forfeiting or crashin the vehicle makes it impossible to finish it unless you restart the entire game, and there's a host of glitches coming in from all sides at all times. It should have been held back at least three more months.

[AChimp]

The first one had a lot of random crashes, too. :(

[pjalne]

Yeah, most of the problem are inherited from the first one. I don't really think they've done anything to the engine.

Still, it's a good game as long as you save often and in many different slots.

[adept_ninja]

Yeah a ton of bugs but still an awesome game. I beat it a while ago my guy was pimped out with a dark jedi robe an axe in one hand and a lightsaber in the other :)

[pjalne]

Oh Jesus Christ, everything is so fucked up now I'm tempted to start over and stick to a walkthrough. There are something like five missions I can't finish now because I went to an area I wasn't supposed to enter yet. Good thing they didn't place it right in my path. Oh, hang on, they did.

And I just got out of a sticky spot where I had to kill two people with one character from my party, and it was impossible because I wasn't allowed to change his gear and hadn't given him any good stuff for a while. It's a good thing a FAQ could tell me there was a glitch there, so I could run over to a certain spot to make my opponents freeze up so I could take them out.

There's no real point in playing this before a bunch of patches are out. Lucasarts just released the first one, but all it does is to put a PDF version of the manual in the game directory.

[Zomboid]

Meh. I played through it twice and I only noticed a few annoying glitches and the game was great. My friend's borrowing it right now and loving it too. Mind you, neither of us are exactly "hardcore gamers" and don't notice a lot of stuff that some people do.

[ArrowX]

Did anyone Notice they even hint at the abundance of glitches and retarted moments? When the little pop-up appears after one of attons "Idon't like this" moments and tells you to save whenever he gets a batd feeling. Did anyone get the glitch where the characters yould make random movements while talking?

[AChimp]

You mean the game holds your hand and reminds you to save before hard fights? :(

[Anonymous]

And I just got out of a sticky spot where I had to kill two people with one character from my party, and it was impossible because I wasn't allowed to change his gear and hadn't given him any good stuff for a while.

Oh god, I know the exact scene you're talking about. I hadn't equiped him either because I never had him in my party (because I never had a party, and because I hate him). I found that if you pause the moment the cutscene ends, before it automatically pauses for "enemy sighted", you can load him up. Of course, I still wound up running away, lobbing grenades like a madman.

While I'm on the subject, I don't like the times when the game forces you to do without the main character. My guy could handle situations alone that a party of any 3 teammates couldn't without some difficulty.

[pjalne]

You mean the game holds your hand and reminds you to save before hard fights? :(

Nah, it's just that one time. I think.

Oh, and a question for Boogie and the other guys who already finished it:

If I try to talk to the handmaiden, she gets really pissed at me for talking to the blind Jedi chick. If I lose influence with the other one before talking to the handmaiden, will she ease up? I've got five savegames, but all of them are from after I've talked to the new girl. You know, because I thought I was supposed to be able to talk to people without other people going nuts three hours later.

[Anonymous]

Hell if I know. I managed to work the Handmaiden well into the Dark Side, but nothing I say can get me any influence with the blind chick. Maybe you can only please one of them.

[Zomboid]

Yeah, it's incredibly easy to gain influence with the blind chick but the handmaiden the best way to do it is to spar with her. Oh, and she hates you when you're in love with the blind chick.

[pjalne]

Yeah, but I only talked to her the one time, and now the handmaiden's gonna hate me for the rest of the game? That's just retarded. Non-linear gameplay is one thing, punishing you for something you couldn't possibly know you'd done wrong without any warning whatsover is another. >:

[AChimp]

I THINK THIS GAME IS VERY REALISTIC ABOUT GIRLS AM I RIGHT GUYS :lol

[BlueOatmeal]

I just got off the first planet and crashed my ship on someother planet. I can't remeber these names for the life of me.

[Zomboid]

Yeah, but I only talked to her the one time, and now the handmaiden's gonna hate me for the rest of the game? That's just retarded. Non-linear gameplay is one thing, punishing you for something you couldn't possibly know you'd done wrong without any warning whatsover is another. >:

That's odd. I got them both to love me the second time I played. The first time the handmaiden hated me but I had force sex with the blind one near the end both times :D. Maybe yours is just really glitched up, cause with my game I can talk to them both a lot and not have the handmaiden hate me.

Oh, and the part where you use your one guy to kill those 2 chicks in the bar is a lot easier if you make the guy a jedi :/ . To do that you need really high influence with him and gotta take the correct conversation routes. Also, you can do that with the non droid/wookie/mandalorian characters too.

[Anonymous]

Someone tell me I'm not the only person who goes the evil route.




**Spoiler**

Also, when I tried to make the handmaiden a jedi (or sith, whatever), I was transported to the telos academy, but there wasn't anything I could do. Anyone know anything about this?

[Zomboid]

Oh don't worry Boogie, you're not alone in being evil. I even sometimes get people's hopes up just so I can dash them :)

Oh, and what happens at the telos academy? Anything? I know you have to go back there eventually for an important part of the story.

[darkvare]

the ending sucked :/

[Zomboid]

The ending is more in what's said in the conversation before the end video than the video itself.

[Anonymous]

But it's still weak as hell. Sure, there's some interesting stuff said, but they don't wrap up a lot of the loose ends. I could see them leaving some open for a sequel, but not like this.

[Zomboid]

Yeah, I was disappointed too. I was really looking forward to something more than that but what can ya do? :/ Kotor 1 was better I thought.

[Anonymous]

Complain!>:

Seriously, though, it seems like there's a lot of complaints out there about the ending. Gamespy has an article in which the author said he found out that there were a bunch of ending events that were planned, but never implemented on account of the production deadline. I'm not suggesting that if enough people complain that they'll actually go back and put the scenarios in the game in some kind of huge patch. I'm just saying that perhaps the growing disappointment in such will make Lucasarts rethink their policy on forcing games out before they're ready.

[pjalne]

I haven't finished the game yet, but it's obvious this game was nowhere near ready to be released.

[Helm]

I had fun with this, really. It's obviously yeah, unfinished and works half the time, but I think I enjoyed it more than KotOR.
