Crow_Nest Posted August 11, 2003 Share Posted August 11, 2003 I just wanted to know which side of the force will you play on in Jk3, Dark side or light side. I think i'll play as dark side. MUAHAHAHAHA!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oasisfan Posted August 11, 2003 Share Posted August 11, 2003 Yah I think I will too, I wonder if any of the Academy teachers will go like Yoda in EP1: Grave danger I sense in your future Muhahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BawBag™ Posted August 11, 2003 Share Posted August 11, 2003 Well, not to be too pernickity, but i'll play as both. Cos' I believe there will be different endings/levels for each side. But if you mean my preference, I would say darkside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cheat Posted August 11, 2003 Share Posted August 11, 2003 yeah i will probably try both to see the difference but when i play it multiple times i will probably choose dark side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reclaimer Posted August 11, 2003 Share Posted August 11, 2003 Dark Side and what if a taunt was"I finf your lack of faith disturbing" That would be cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SettingShadow Posted August 11, 2003 Share Posted August 11, 2003 I guess I'll be the first one to go Light then. Although I will play it dark later on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crow_Nest Posted August 11, 2003 Author Share Posted August 11, 2003 It would be better if i could use both dark and light powers. Like jk2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya but I find this way better because you have the satisfaction of actually being a Sith Lord! I think I'm gonna play as dark first then light.

HaruGlory89 Posted August 11, 2003 Share Posted August 11, 2003 Is it possible to play in between the paths like in JO? If you can then that's my choice. Otherwise, I'll use the light side, I'm more of a defensive guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prime Posted August 11, 2003 Share Posted August 11, 2003 I'll be playing the Light Side the first time and Dark Side the second most likely. As for MP I'll have to wait and see what the balance issues are... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JEDI OUTCAST Posted August 11, 2003 Share Posted August 11, 2003 i am going to play the light side. but if i am in a bad mood i am going to play the dark side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neverhoodian Posted August 11, 2003 Share Posted August 11, 2003 I'll probably play JA the same way I played JK. I'll play Light side first, just to see the "good" ending. (after all, that's how most of the movies end ) Then I'll take a walk down the Dark side and fufill my urge to be a lord of evil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boinga1 Posted August 11, 2003 Share Posted August 11, 2003 Whatever. Light probably, but I'll grab some Grip or Lightning for the extra offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shotokan Posted August 11, 2003 Share Posted August 11, 2003 I'm gonna play as a Light Jedi first... Then after I beat the game I'll "fall" to the Dark Side or whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurgan Posted August 11, 2003 Share Posted August 11, 2003 I haven't decided. I will eventually do both of course, but not sure which one I do first. Playing Lightside first would make Dark Side that much more fun though I would think. =) I have been waiting a long time for a DS game though, so I might be tempted to play that first!

FK | unnamed Posted August 12, 2003 Share Posted August 12, 2003 umm stupid question but I've never finished any of the SP games (JK1 or JK2) so I have to ask. Does light/dark make a difference story wise? Like multiple endings and such, or is it just you get different powers based on if you kill pedestrians or not? JA single player actually looks pretty cool and I’m going to give it a try, I just wanted to know if it’s going to be worth playing as a light/dark twice to see different endings and such.

amas128 Posted August 12, 2003 Share Posted August 12, 2003 Well in JK2 (never played the first JK) you can use dark and light force powers, so the ending was the same. I'm not completely sure, but anyone who has played SP more than twice (not me) would be able to tell you. I think I'm going to do light first, then dark on my second time through. There should be different endings, I can't think of anything in any interview that said it, but I thought it would be a given. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obi-Wan X Posted August 12, 2003 Share Posted August 12, 2003 Ive played JK SP 3 times and i've gotten the same ending each time. There really isn't anything that would make you turn to the darkside in JK2. Killing stormies once you've taken their weapons? Er....no, JO didn't include this. And killing droids doesn't help either. Regarding JA, i'm tempted to go the darkside route first, but I believe the "true" ending will be the light ending ( like JK1).So i'll beat that first, then followed by darkside.

JA single player actually looks pretty cool and I’m going to give it a try, I just wanted to know if it’s going to be worth playing as a light/dark twice to see different endings and such. In Jedi Knight II you couldn't decide to be on the light or dark side...you were sort of in between until the end when Kyle turned more lightish. In Jedi Knight I, if you killed unarmed NPCs like droids and pedestrians, it would cause a light/dark bar to move right or left...left being light, right being dark. Once you could choose light and dark powers, choosing light powers would move towards the light side and choosing dark powers moved to the dark side. Very shortly after you could select light/dark powers, the game would reach the branching point where you'd go one way or the other...if you were on the light (left) side of the light/dark bar, then you would go to the light side and could only select light side powers (even if you had selected a dark side power...it would just take those points off)...if you were on the dark (right) side of the light/dark bar, then you'd go to the dark side and you could only select dark side powers. There were two different endings as well...you'd fight different Dark Jedi at a certain level depending on the path you chose and if you went to the dark side, Kyle would at one point kill Jan and at the end of the game you'd see a fairly long cutscene that was pretty cool. If you went to the light side, Jan would live and the ending cutscene would be completely different...it wouldn't be as long and not so evilly cool either. I've heard that Jedi Academy will just have a certain point where you have to make the choice of either the light side or the dark side...no light/dark bar. It was just something I read in a Raven interview and it didn't go into much detail so I may be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kurgan Posted August 15, 2003 Share Posted August 15, 2003 Yeah, JK1 has been the only game so far to let you choose DarkSide or LightSide. The levels were slightly different, as well as having different cutscenes (including a different ending), but it only affected the latter half of the game really (though you could start playing whichever way you wanted early on). IIRC, you got "light side points" by rescuing certain NPC's before they got killed by enemies, and you got "dark side points" by killing pedestrians. Killing droids incurred no penalty, but if you killed WeeGee, the family Droid, something really cool happens (just try it and you'll see). However, what really affects your going to one side or the other is your choice of powers (picking a dark side power pushes you a lot farther than killing civies for example). Though if you "stay true" to one side up to the point of change, you could earn special bonus powers unavailable to your normally (Protection: Light, Deadly Sight: Dark). It sounds to me like the choice in JA will basically be based on what powers you choose, which could be odd if you went around killing every civilian you saw, but chose lightside powers, so I'm not sure how they'll handle that (maybe they'll just say "mission failed" if you kill anybody, unless you choose darkside?). What would be cool is if they did it somewhat like how it was done in TPM the game... have everybody scared of you or gang up on you if you try to kill them earlier. ; ) Or maybe if you do bad stuff, the bad guys respect you and try to recruit you into their group or something... heh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
