I'm with the NO camp. I don't think I've ever played a character with a double-bladed lightsaber because that's not my weapon of choice. However I don't buy into the argument that a double-bladed lightsaber is inherently a DS weapon and so I don't th... [Read More]

I like the starting out as a Jedi Padawan on Coruscant idea. However I have a hard time trying to figure out how this would work with the existing story left to us by TSL. If I understood the TSL ending correctly then the Jedi Order is pretty much... [Read More]

I for one am all for better graphics but if someone would be kind enough to explain what graphics engine and game engine KotOR and TSL use? I thought the Odyssey engine the games use covered both game mechanics and graphics. But from what y'all are s... [Read More]

I think there is no doubt that any future KotOR game will be built for a next-gen console. I'm pretty sure I've stated this in other threads but why would any game developer/publisher release new games for outdated consoles? Does anyone know of any d... [Read More]

The more I think about it, the more I believe that it's actually a wall of strong emotions. Like with Atton, Bao-Dur's feelings provide a shield against intruders. OK. Sounds like a good hypothesis but the problem is still why can the Exile hear Bao... [Read More]

At long last, back OT. I'm going to go thru the dialog files (learned my lesson the hard way:D) to see if I can find anything but I'm guessing that there won't be much in the way of solid reasons why the Exile can but Kreia can't. It's probably one o... [Read More]

I don't see how the Exile could be considered a Jedi at the beginning of TSL. The Exile had been expelled from the Jedi Order, not to mention the fact that the Exile had lost connectivity to the Force. IMO, force sensitive does not equate to being a... [Read More]
