DeViNaR Posted December 23, 2003 Posted December 23, 2003 well...i dont really like pazzak... its just a game based on luck... i dont like it very much... i didn't got it very well... {sorry for my bad english...} :>
Burrie Posted December 23, 2003 Posted December 23, 2003 No, I m'self also didn't spend too much time on it... and call me paranoid, but I do find it rather odd how some of the Pazaak players always get the right cards at just the right time
Hilding Posted December 23, 2003 Posted December 23, 2003 Well I think Pazaak is fun, because i allways wins.
idontlikegeorge Posted December 23, 2003 Posted December 23, 2003 At first I didn't like it, thought it was a bunch of BS and the NPCs cheat... but I do like it after playing it often. And it isn't all about luck, it's got alot of strategy as well... do I use a good hand card to tie a set, or let him have it? Should I play conservative, and try to stay under 20, or go for it and rely on my hand cards to bail me out if I go over? I was thinking, if someone would make a small program, like solitaire, but have the game Pazaak, I would play it.
Astrotoy7 Posted December 23, 2003 Posted December 23, 2003 well, it can be a good distraction at times. Also, if you manage to buy a number of those +/- cards youre all set to make the long green(assuming republic credits are green as well ) MTFBWYA
Sivy Posted December 23, 2003 Posted December 23, 2003 i like it. i've got quite a good deck with plenty of +/- cards so i win most of the time.. always good if i need some extra cash.
HertogJan Posted December 23, 2003 Posted December 23, 2003 I played the tutorial once, didn't like it... Then I bought some +/- cards, but really, I never used them... I just don't feel attracted to the game. Blackjack would've been nicer

Sam Fisher Posted December 23, 2003 Posted December 23, 2003 Yep. Keep a lot of good hand cards and you'll be alright. I like it well enough.
Toa Tahu Posted December 24, 2003 Posted December 24, 2003 No, I m'self also didn't spend too much time on it... and call me paranoid, but I do find it rather odd how some of the Pazaak players always get the right cards at just the right time I played the tutorial once, didn't like it... Then I bought some +/- cards, but really, I never used them... I just don't feel attracted to the game. Blackjack would've been nicer I agree with you two.Believe it or not,I've NEVER won a Pazaak game before.Call me paranoid or what,but I would rapidly lose interest in some thing in which there is no chance of winning or no profit in winning.To gain credits,I'd rather slaughter some Sith spit laying out there rather than playing this game.
HertogJan Posted December 24, 2003 Posted December 24, 2003 Yeah, besides, I never really felt the need for more credits! I could buy almost everything I wanted. I don't need supahdupah guns or armor bought, I steel it off the slayn bodies of my enemies
eidospsogos Posted December 25, 2003 Posted December 25, 2003 uh, i don't know what you people are doing wrong, but it is quite possible to win at this game. and not only to win, but to win often. i happened to fall amongst those who thought the computer was cheating as well. but one hand just to see, just kept hitting end turn at numbers where no safe player would, and you'd be surprised, but your chances of getting this magically easy 20 is just as good as the npc's. it is, on the basest level, all luck. just as much luck as blackjack or any other card gambling game. (having a computer generated game of blackjack would have had just as many people whining about the computer cheating.) but building a good deck allows you to eliminate some of the luck involved in the game. and yourchances of coming back from a number over 20 to a perfect 20 are just as good as the npc's as well. as i have watched the computer/npc bust many many a time. so if you take the time to actually try to build a deck, and you aren't a poor sport(i.e. give up and whine that the opponent cheats like the guy in the upper city cantina will after you beat him 5 times) the game can be fun AND rewarding. first of all it is rare to get a good amount of credits off a dead body. second killing some one will not get you a hefty discount from the owner of the yavin station. that is only one of the examples of the things you receive from playing someone and beating them ten times. so miss out on an element of the game if you like. i personally did not much care for swoop racing once reaching manaan. but i took part in it anyway, as it was a part of the game, and i didn't want to miss ANYTHING. not only that but occasional mindless distractions are a good rest from a tedious plot.
Clemme w/Stick Posted December 25, 2003 Posted December 25, 2003 I like it. Its relaxing to take a game of Pazaak once in a while. -Clemme
Jabbas WhOr3 Posted December 26, 2003 Posted December 26, 2003 I like the guy on Manaan, "Less talk, more pazak!" before you play him, that line is funny, he is like some little pazak addict!
idontlikegeorge Posted December 26, 2003 Posted December 26, 2003 I like beating that poseur Niklos on Taris. And if you're male, talking to that skank Christya in the gambling room. The guy in the Anchorhead Cantina is funny, too. Thinking he's the ****, then when you beat him down a few notches he'll stop gambling, but would play for fun... he'd like to "visit his money sometime."
Hannibal Posted December 26, 2003 Posted December 26, 2003 I voted no. I played it the first time I played through the game but after that I ignored the Pazak guys.
Bastilla'sMan Posted December 29, 2003 Posted December 29, 2003 I played it once. Didn't really like it, but I don't think that's because I lost. Maybe I'll have to give it another try. Hmm... maybe I'll play with Mission on the Ebon Hawk. Afterall, if I loose money to her, at least it's still in the party, right?
eidospsogos Posted December 29, 2003 Posted December 29, 2003 mission will not play you for money. she only plays for practice.
Samus Posted December 30, 2003 Posted December 30, 2003 Well, it seems there's always some sort of gambling in every RPG. Pazaak is OK.
lukeiamyourdad Posted December 30, 2003 Posted December 30, 2003 I kinda like pazaak. It's fun and relaxing. Now I kinda hate sore losers who always complaint. "Oh this mini-game sucks because I always lose", "oh this map sucks because I suck on it". Damn that's annoying...
