Sabers are for Panzys

[RagNoRock]

So I finaly got around to picking up the Best Of with KotOR and started playing.

From my SWG days I have been die hard anti-jedi/saber :-P

SO naturaly My charicture would never ever lay his hands on pathetic glowstick. My friends were all telling me "Dude, blasters are way gimped!" That is simi-true. They are untill ya get Force Speed-2 :-P

From then on out it was rediculusly easy. Killed most bosses before they could get more then one or two hits on me, Bastila being the easyest ^_^

Been thinking of going through again and refining my Commando/Sneaky Commando some


What do yall think? Blasters or Glow Sticks?

[Mikouen]

Mix of both. You get three characters, might as well have one tank, one ranged damage-dealer, and one support. With that setup - whether I have the melee tank use a saber or a sword - I can pretty much sit back and let the game play itself.

Game tends to be much better in solo mode for that very reason, in my eyes.

Im for blasters...but when it comes to LS I can't resist the red glow.

[RagNoRock]

It was quite funny in all the cut scenes where Revin is walking, hes holding his hands out like hes carrying a blaster but nothings there :-P

It makes me sad tho that there is no stance feats for Heavy Weapons or Rifles

They got Dueling and double-bladed and two weapons but not one for a single big gun

That's because they work on the same principal that the NGE was introduced to SWG for.

Glowbat swinging, Force Running is the biggest money spinner.

That, and Jedi and Lightsabers in KOTOR and TSL are done much better than what they became post NGE in SWG. (Or so I believe anyway.)

[RagNoRock]

NGE was introduced to conter the inital problem caused by the Jedi Marketing. They never should have been put in in the first place and were inherently flawed. NGE balanced them finaly.

Post NGE Jedi/Non-Jedi are all pritty much ballanced, better then KotOR because to get a good blaster person in Kotor ya need the Speed :-P

why would anyone play a Star Wars game without using lightsabers?? I mean, it's like playing Panzer Dragoon and complaining about dragons!!

the whole attraction on Star Wars are Jedi/Sith and their luminous sticks!!

[Mikouen]

I don't buy that. In fact, I find the whole Jedi thing to be one of the least impressive elements of Star Wars.

I don't think I ever used a saber or Force power in the Dark Forces / Jedi Knight series unless I was left with no other viable option.

For me, the space element is a lot more impressive, just a shame that all the official Star Wars space games didn't build on it anywhere near as well as they should have.

Yeah, not really...
Star Wars is a Sci-Fi tale of an empire trying to bring peace to its citizens and an unruly pack of terrorists trying to disrupt their efforts.

Jedi and Sith alike are just a bunch of whinny kids complaining about eachother basicaly :-P

Light Jedi "You need to join our club k? Your club is bad."
Dark Jedi "Nuh uhh, you join our club or else!"
Light Jedi "Our club doesn't give in to threats!"
Dark Jedi "Well then suffer through hearing them for the next 40 thousand years, MUAHAHAH!!!"

[Mikouen]

Only the twist is that the terrorists are the good guys.

Bit of a change from most movies, as the little guys are usually portrayed as the villains, when it's not always like that - rarely is, in fact.
