Xirion Posted March 29, 2002 Share Posted March 29, 2002 how will you design your character? will you give it a history/backstory? and what will it look like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Com Raven Posted March 31, 2002 Share Posted March 31, 2002 well, it has to be a human, so not much choice on that one... male of course... and for the rest, we don't know enough... hope there are different body types as in NWN... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Simpson Posted April 1, 2002 Share Posted April 1, 2002 Don't know about background, as the game may provide one for you, if it's crucial to the story. I'll probably play a male, since I am one... I'd like a ton of customization options for my character though, so I can make him / her look exactly as I'd like. Things such as hair style / color, clothes, body type, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Com Raven Posted April 1, 2002 Share Posted April 1, 2002 Well, BG provided you with a constraining enough backdrop... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wraith 5 Posted April 1, 2002 Share Posted April 1, 2002 so do you have to be a jedi or will it be like bg where you can pick different classes? I haven't heared... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woad Posted April 2, 2002 Share Posted April 2, 2002 I think it's pretty much a given that your a Jedi Knight. Given the title and the fact that the mechanics and screen shots seem to revolve around the force and the lightsaber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xirion Posted April 2, 2002 Author Share Posted April 2, 2002 hmm and the fact its called Nights of the old republic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Com Raven Posted April 2, 2002 Share Posted April 2, 2002 You start off as anything but a jedi.. later on, you get involved with the force, but you still don't have to become a jedi... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Simpson Posted April 2, 2002 Share Posted April 2, 2002 Perhaps you mean Knights... Well, BG provided you with a constraining enough backdrop... True. I was just thinking since it's Star Wars, it could be pretty restricted in that category. I could be wrong of course, but it's just a thought...

Com Raven Posted April 2, 2002 Share Posted April 2, 2002 Well, NWN doesn't seem to have a given background, so we will see.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormHammer Posted April 11, 2002 Share Posted April 11, 2002 I'll probably start off as a Bounty Hunter or something...and then become a Jedi, like my father before me... I'm not sure if I'll be playing male or female yet - but I definitely want to see a lot of character config options right at the start, so you can tweak your appearance how you like. It's a pity you don't get to choose your own ship, though. I wouldn't have minded just a choice of 3...at least it would have offered a little variation. Oh well... As for character history...well, I hope that's left as open as possible - with a choice of home planet, etc., which may have an affect on how certain NPCs react to you in the game. I too would have liked a choice of Race for the main character...limiting you to being a human seems a bit odd from where I'm sitting. After all, any race can be force sensitive, and potentially become a Jedi - and any race could learn Basic as a language, so that's no barrier. We can only hope the game's a success (I'm sure it will be), and they add some of these options in an expansion pack...or maybe a sequel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Com Raven Posted April 11, 2002 Share Posted April 11, 2002 Well, in most cases where there are lots of different races, ppl play humans anyway... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
