MJ-W4 Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 Ok, so I think it's pretty obvious what the jig is here. I am all for more content. Yes it makes the game more valueable in replayability, yes it keeps an entertaining drive, and yes it can obviously be done. What that story amounts to, and how it is brought about should be the real drive behind the games conception I think. Kotor, could do well to have as much playability as manageable. I believe this as I am a huge fan of epic games, and that is why Elder Scrolls 3, and four(second to three) are games I love, sponsoring as much as, get ready; 500+ hours of gameplay. Despite being subject to gameplay styles and methods. With all the things we missed in K2 included, K3 is bound to be longer. Also, I think K2 replayability suffers badly from the missing content and makes me long for mods, and the very linearity isn't so very hot either. So I'd say: more length, more content, more fun. And a TES-like editor might be fun, too.
SentinelRivers Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 The longer the better but it's doubtful they'd be able to fill up every hour of the game with interesting content the bigger it gets. With a much longer playtime the boring parts will become more drawn it, which in turn will effect replayability. Somewhere around the 40-50 hour mark would be decent. I doubt they'd have the time nor the money to make the game 70+ hours.
Darca Lar Posted November 22, 2007 Posted November 22, 2007 It took me a little over a week to beat Assassin's Creed. And I enjoyed every second of it, so I say at least 70 or more for K3.
adamqd Posted November 22, 2007 Posted November 22, 2007 I was more than satisfied with K1's length, so I'd go with that. I don't feel I'd want to play through 80 hours a second time, and replay value is another reason why KotOR n' TSL rule
rhotr Posted November 22, 2007 Posted November 22, 2007 If the story can carry 80 hours of gameplay.. Then YES!.. But do not comprisme with the story to make a long game.
Sabretooth Posted November 23, 2007 Author Posted November 23, 2007 I don't see how it took some ppl 40+ hours Bastila is to blame.
GeneralPloKoon Posted November 23, 2007 Posted November 23, 2007 A butt-load of planets is all I want, making the game looooong without messing up the story(maybe a bunch of planets just to mess around in???)
Prime Posted November 23, 2007 Posted November 23, 2007 If the story can carry 80 hours of gameplay.. Then YES!.. But do not comprisme with the story to make a long game. Strong point by you.
Miltiades Posted November 23, 2007 Posted November 23, 2007 Yep, story is the most important thing to me, and that must not be ruined because it becomes to lengthy and thus boring. Though I'd be very happy if more content wouldn't compromise the story. I'm also for more optional side-quests. Then you always get to choose.
Darca Lar Posted November 24, 2007 Posted November 24, 2007 Yeah, as long as the game has a compelling story and remains as open-ended if not more, then by all means longer.
DarthTanro Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 I like them to a page out of the Final Fantasy Book. Average Story length with a good depth to the story and lots of side quests and such. I played the whole story on 7 in about two days because it was good but then I spent two weeks replaying the game and doing all the side missions. Give me that. And some offical mod tools.
MJ-W4 Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 I played the whole story on 7 in about two days If K3 is that short, I'll wait till you get it as a giveaway in a packet of crisps. Size does matter.
JediMasterJambi Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 And all this time the women in my life have been saying size dosen't matter. :'(
MJ-W4 Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 ^^ Ever heard of interrogation droids? Seriously, if a possible K3 only provides a run-trough rather than an elaborate walk-through, I won't consider buying it.
Darca Lar Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 I'd buy it just to finish the story. That's what I'm gonna do with the Halo series. Once H3 drops in price, I'm gonna buy it.
MJ-W4 Posted December 6, 2007 Posted December 6, 2007 I'd buy it just to finish the story.Good point, I still hope I won't have to fish it out of a packet of SnV, though.
PoiuyWired Posted December 6, 2007 Posted December 6, 2007 Well, I would say a variable length of something between 10 hours to 50 hours. Basically that means if you want to rush thru the game during the replay doing only the key quest that progress the story, you can rush thru it in 10 hours. But if you were to do all the side quests, play a bit of cards and what not and take yoru time, it would take 40-50 hours to complete, excluding things like deliberate long hours at the pazaak bar. Also, I would love to see pazaak accessable outside of the loaded game. Basically we should be able to just play the cards without logging into the story... its better than playing Hearts by lots.
MJ-W4 Posted December 6, 2007 Posted December 6, 2007 Also, I would love to see pazaak accessable outside of the loaded game. Basically we should be able to just play the cards without logging into the story... its better than playing Hearts by lots.They might just as well make pazaak into a small stand-alone, like a bonus feature. THAT would be nice.
PoiuyWired Posted December 8, 2007 Posted December 8, 2007 While K3 should NOT BE ONLINE, Pazaak should be. Online Pazaak with a cantina... so we can all play a few hands while enjoying a nice glass of Juma juice while fondling some Zeltron gogo girls...
MJ-W4 Posted December 8, 2007 Posted December 8, 2007 Online Pazaak with a cantina...Hopefully, the music won't be limited to Bith!
MJ-W4 Posted December 9, 2007 Posted December 9, 2007 It probably would...That seems to call for a music-mod even before it's released.
Darca Lar Posted December 9, 2007 Posted December 9, 2007 Sure, they can just take Through Fire and Flames from Dragonforce. I can see it now...
Lordjedi Posted December 25, 2007 Posted December 25, 2007 I want a long game so 70-80 hours PS: K1 and K2 only took abouot 10 hours for me so I wouldn't think it would be 40 unless you finish all the quest's
