Darth333 Posted December 6, 2004 Posted December 6, 2004 --> and use spoiler tags when you post spoilers! <-- We had that thread for KotOR 1 and I thought it would be nice to have it for the sequel. So after playing the game a little, what are your first impressions?
Tdcquicksilver5 Posted December 7, 2004 Posted December 7, 2004 Quote Awesome! Amazing! Beautiful Ditto.
Tdcquicksilver5 Posted December 7, 2004 Posted December 7, 2004 The game starts off a little slow....but picks up quick!
PoM Posted December 7, 2004 Posted December 7, 2004 Any new pc heads? Edit: Don't double post. It was probably a little mistake after playing kotor2 a little to much and getting brainwashed.. Or something.
Devilsfanatic Posted December 7, 2004 Posted December 7, 2004 I love the interface this year, you don't have to pause and unequip your weapons. So far, this game is awesome.
Devilsfanatic Posted December 7, 2004 Posted December 7, 2004 I've played about 7 hrs, and wow, still on the first level.......umm, this game has such a creepy vibe to it, and Sion is a real bad ass, just never know when he pops up. Im lovin' it so far.
beel2112 Posted December 8, 2004 Posted December 8, 2004 It's awesome. I do have a slight "been there done that" feel, but there are so many new things, and so far, the story has been great. Lots of *little* twists to make you question whether or not you've got the story right. First the bad: I feel the movements/camera view is kind of awkward (I only played KotOR I on PC), the load times are inferior to the PC (not surprisingly), and the frame rate drops fairly often, but not to an extent to be more than a nuisance at worst. My biggest complaint right now is there were times when I felt like I didn't know what I was supposed to be doing; I just ran from place to place and stumbled over (as mentioned elsewhere, it's fairly linear at the beginning) what to do next. You can't switch back and forth among upgrading and breaking down/creating items without leaving the workbench; pretty silly. (Maybe I'm missing something...) The good: Oh, where to begin. TONS of new stuff; I'm overwhelmed by the Workbench/lab. Voice acting is good so far. Good dialogue with more choices than in KotOR I. My first 6-hour binge was just enough to get me off of the Peragus Mining COlony. The story is GREAT so far. The characters are great; they definitely have that "Star Wars" aura about them. Already found some unique (I think) items. Oh, this was AWESOME too: "customized" things. I don't want to go into detail, but I've already recovered one item Reveal hidden contents named [My Character's Name]'s [item here]. Must....go.....to.....bed. Must not....call in sick.....to work....in order ....to play TSL...ALL DAY.....

I had a funny feeling they would do that, though I didn't know how. Very cool! (I can already forsee the modding is going to be great for this game)
Hannibal Posted December 8, 2004 Posted December 8, 2004 I wish you could toggle a beard to any of the male faces when choosing your character. I saw a face I wanted but it didn't have a beard and I figured if my character was in exile he would have a beard.

I've always wanted to see a jedi with an afro.
PoM Posted December 8, 2004 Posted December 8, 2004 Ya! Imagine a kotor with as much effort layd in character creation as in galaxies ^^! That would be GREAT! Maybe in kotor3...
starmark2k Posted December 8, 2004 Posted December 8, 2004 it would be good if you had full customabilty on your characters appearance from the size of the nose to the tone of the skin.
GodVegeta1982 Posted December 8, 2004 Posted December 8, 2004 All I know is that its nothing near easy, like a few of the reviews said. I actually think its much harder then the first game, but thats my opinion!
metalhead Posted December 8, 2004 Posted December 8, 2004 NICE! I've sent about two and a half hours on it, and I'm lovin it! Sure, it does have a slight 'been there, done that' feel to it, but it is so addicting. For some reason, I can feel a darker tinge to the game, and I haven't even ran into any 'living' enemys yet.
Emperor Pangasa Posted December 9, 2004 Posted December 9, 2004 It feels more like an expansion pack than an actual sequel. I am glad they left things alone, however I wish the lightsaber moves where more fluid. Regardless it is a superb game with an intriguing story.
pegasus71 Posted December 9, 2004 Posted December 9, 2004 Hey i m surprised noone has Finished the game yet....I mean there are some rock hard fans out there that would clue themselves to virtuallity for 24 hours straight no?
Tdcquicksilver5 Posted December 9, 2004 Posted December 9, 2004 Im almost done with the game (I think).And I still dont have a prestige class..... Does anyone know which special force power goes with which prestige class?I want force crush!!!

Does anyone know which special force power goes with which prestige class?I want force crush!!! According to the first chapter of the prima stratergy guide you can download on the official lucasarts site. Reveal hidden contents to get a prestige class you need to have visas marr on your team (or just have met her but i'm not sure) and be level 15. you then speak to kreia on the ebon hawk (i think) you should check that chapter of the stratergy guide that can be downloaded free from lucasarts.com
Hannibal Posted December 9, 2004 Posted December 9, 2004 I just got to the surface of Telos. I was wondering about the reviews saying the game was darker than the first till I saw the scene with Reveal hidden contents Sion and Kreia. When he kiss her @ss. I was like, whoah!! Obsidian stepped it up with the violence. I was wondering why the game was rated Teen for blood and violence.
FLiPWALKER Posted December 9, 2004 Posted December 9, 2004 The best thing about the game thus far, was getting off of that space station. I am concerned with the extensive amount of dialogue tha the game appears to have, Id just prefer to run around Telos and raise the body count.
Lord_Prowler Posted December 9, 2004 Posted December 9, 2004 I'll post more about the game later, but I'd first like to thank my mom for letter me play it early and not wait for Christmas. She ownz.

Hannibal Posted December 9, 2004 Posted December 9, 2004 I wonder what I was thinking about? That's a different game. I was going to edit it and fix it but it's funnier as a mistake. Hey its in spoiler tags, nobody will read it.
