Most disappointing part of the game.

Isn't he also said to be the most dangerous and powerful of the Sith Triumvirate?
>>
>>323041092
yeah but your character hard counters him so he doesn't seem so dangerous
>>
I agree; his presentation was relatively anti-climactic.

Stll, Kreia does talk about him a lot, compares him to Sion (who does get more in-game time), and his development/backstory is key to the themes of the game.
>>
>Influence lost: Kreia

anyway, why is this game so goddamn bugged? one quest broken on telos, other impossible to complete withouth getting darkside points on nar shaddaa, broken triggers all over the place, etc

I started playing KOTOR 2 last night after beating the first KOTOR a decade ago. I usually dislike playing older games but fuck me, I'm actually really liking it (even though I'm only like 8 hours in)

Is the game consistently good?
>>
>>323041507
Doesn't the RCM fix a lot of bugs as well?
>>
>>323041561
no
it gets better
>>
>>323041507

Out of the box, it's literally unfinished. A lot of stuff was cut or rushed out the door.

Play it with the Restored Content Mod. That's what the game should have been.
>>
>>323041561
Yes, it's consistently good. Some planets feel like chores (like Peragus, especially) - but I don't think they will feel that way on first playthroughs.
>>
>>323041561
it gets better towards the midgame but the ending leaves a bit to be desired imo. Still one of the few RPGs where I liked all of the party
>>
>>323041092
Yes
He literally tore worlds apart with the force
Then you meet him and he blows a raspberry at you in ancient Sith lingo and dies
Kinda disappointing

Malak may have been a fucking cheeseball but at least he was there the whole game constantly fucking with your shit
>>
>>323041773
What's great about the restored content mod is that even bioware admitted to the game being unfinished, and they recommend all players to install it. Old bioware was the tits.

Peragus was cool
I hated it as a kid but I guess thats the power of nostalgia

Telos however..

i really liked peragus both when i was a kid and adult tbhq.

telos was a bit chore though yeah.
>>
>>323041561

Both KOTOR games have agonizingly slow starts, but they pick up as they go and end on a good note. Like another anon said, some areas still feel like chores sometimes like Manaan in the first game, but it never gets as bad as the opening worlds.
>>
>>323042561
Manaan has the comfiest soundtrack though
Based Jeremy Soule
>>
>>323039750

the put him on the cover because his design is 'cool'

they really should have had kreia on the cover

I have delayed a playthrough of this for the last 6 years because all I remembered was fucking Paragus.

40hrs in now, worth pushing past it.
>>
>>323042804
I don't know why they had such a hard-on for extremely lengthy starting areas, but that shit needs to stop for KOTOR3

I bought the second game expecting to be able to play as a droid.

Can i choose a droid as MC ?
Is there any Kotor2 mods that let me play as a droid ?
>>
>>323042804

peragus is nowhere near as bad as telos, you start off with jedi powers (force speed nigga), the GOAT character in kreia and if since you already finished the game you know exactly where to go/what to do

also taris is MUCH worse than peragus, i wanted to kill myself playing through that shit again in kotor 1 recently, no force speed and you are stuck with the worst bioware character ever in carth - instead of kreia
>>
>>323042561
Manaan is not a chore. The underwater part is mildly annoying, but the whole planet has god-tier atmosphere (including the music) and a variety of things to do.

Dantooine, however, is fucking terrible. CSI: Dantooine is the Peragus of KotOR 1.

>>
>>323043110
I realised this
Deleted my spoilers for these anons who havent played it
>>
>>323042996
The reason I don't like Peragus is because there is little variety in quest types and conversations. The most interesting thing to talk to is the fucking HK droid. As for quests, they are literally all of "escape the mine" variety. It gets old after just one playthrough, when the atmosphere (which is good, I agree) wears off.

At least Telos and Taris have people to talk to, different sides to support, and Sith parties to attend. There is an air of variety about them; they feel much less on-rails.

i should rephrase, i ATTEMPTED to replay kotor 1 recently on windows 10

between save games being corrupted and not being able to be loaded anymore and my game randomly crashing, i gave up after i finished taris, well i couldnt actually continue after taris since my game wouldnt load anymore but yeah

its not worth the hassle trying to run it on windows 10, it simply will not work

i really hope that some sort of modern patching is done for kotor 1 (like was done for kotor 2 recently) because its one my fav games ever, its so comfy and bastilla is still my waifu

It kills the mystery of her backstory, sure, but as a character, it makes some sense. She's obsessed with you, she wants you to understand her and listen to her, to be like her. So opening up with little influence is understandable, be it a tad disappointing.
>>
>>323043427
Well, you can surround yourself with droids, which can make for a fun party (I always find myself doing this at least once a playthrough).

Despite what others will say, I like the droids - even G0-T0. Even T3.

Bring T3 for the skills
Bring HK for the bantz
Bring G0-T0 for the commentary and strategies. Also, his droid scramble is fun.

He is. The only reason you're able to wipe the floor with him is because you're the Exile.

Any other Jedi, perhaps even Revan, would have been drained dry when Nihilus drained their force powers. When he tried that with you, it was like breaking the laws of physics, he cannot drain what is already a hole.

tl;dr he chokes like a bitch when he tries and you slaughter him. I agree he was anticlimactic, perhaps you should have fought him as individual party members or something for emphasis on how dangerous he was. .

>>323044410
With sneak attack it is by far the most OP build in the game. 15-20x crit range. 50 - 110 damage in both hands. Rapid fire with 35+ attack rating.
>>
>>323041092
Yes. The part where Visas goes "He's too powerful!" is a bit weird when you've fighting the guy unarmed because he's so weak compared to your ultra strong party.

You fucked up then, because I cracked it and patched it last night and it's worked fine. I have a single 10 hour save with 0 crashes (even with tabbing in and out of the game).

read my other reply, i already tried a million different things (fairlight crack included)

it wasnt the crashing that was a problem because i fixed that, it was save games being corrupted to where they could not be loaded anymore, making the game an incredible chore to play through

and yes i already knew about widescreen stuff too

Kriea being a Sith isn't a twist. You can find out her past as far back as Telos with high enough persuasion and influence.

Why's there so many KotOR threads now?
And why is Force Storm Consular the best build?
>>
>>323044017
Kotor 1 has better worldbuilding (e.g. the Builders, the Sand People - everything in the lore up to the Star Forge)
Kotor 2 has a better story and plot, with far more subtlety, and more interesting characters

I like both for those above reasons. KotOR 2 might be a better game, because of its gameplay improvements alone - I especially like the cool stuff you can do at the workbench/lab stations.

>>323045042
Not really. With some credit management you can get two Mandalorian Rippers as soon as you get off Telos. Merchant in Dantooine sells one, and the mandalorian merchant on Dxun sells one.

That's the second most powerful blaster in the game, before you even defeat any of the jedi masters.

No, the stuff between those two wasn't romantic in nature in either game or even in TOR.

Because Bastila's strength with Battle Meditation isn't something that can be taught. Others can use it to boos those around them but Bastila can influence entire armies.
>>
>>323045501

yeah the 'caster' class in kotor 2 was much better due to the feats & powers being much stronger compared to koro 1, and having a stance that massively increases force regen/force damage

you can spam insanity/storm all day long in kotor 2 and later on force crush on bosses to rape them

but again in kotor 2, guardian/weapon master lightsaber +str focued characters are still ridiculously op, i was doing about 600 damage per flurry on my last playthrough which is insane
>>
>>323045510
No, Revan didn't want to fug, his one true love was high impact force violence.

Battle Meditation isn't an unusual power, but Bastila could do it on such a masive, crazy scale that she cold turn entire battles in her favor, while most jedi can only influence a handful of people, more like a "force pep-talk".

Hmmm, maybe took too long with some of the abilities then. I did get those Rippers from early merchants. Kinda fun, too, to give credits and useless items an actual purpose - namely to buy Rippers.

Yes, even Revan. Revan doesn't have a counter to getting his fucking force energy eaten. Hell, Luke, the most powerful jedi to ever life, doesn't have that power.
Only a few select jedi such as the Exile do.

Also, the Exile is much stronger than Revan anyway due to the force bonds they've made

Well, I kind of did a Boba Fett build in that I wore heavy armor. I used Kreia in my party to buff me up with Battle meditation, Speed, etc. Turned me into a god of war pretty much.

I played on difficult and killed everything in the game in max 2 attacks.

Because Nihilus is this game's equivalent to the star forge, the death star as a battle station etc.

just because you are a special snowflake with no issues (which is REALLY doubt if you are playing it on windows 10) doesnt mean im 'full of shit' m8

Sadly this. hyper nostalgia prevents any new Sith Lord to be different. Kylo Ren was obviously a nod to Vader.

I might as well consider the sequel trilogy as not canon if they keep this shit up.

Are you thinking of the Sith Lord class? They have the Dark Side Corruption feat which turn your companions to the dark side even more, and some more to the light.

Sith Marauder is a melee class. They're the Sith class who can select Superior Weapon Focus: Lightsaber and Superior Two-Weapon Fighting feats.

Those are Obsidian fanboys, pay no attention to them.

Both games are good, the first is simple fantasy that is true in tone to the films, the second has a lot of pseudo-intellectual trash and attempts to be a "mature" Star Wars.

I prefer male for both, even though I refer to Exile as female when discussing the games. But Handmaiden > Mikal and story between male Exile + Atris > story between female Exile + Sion.
Pro tip: Exile was "canon" female long before TOR.
>>
>>323047286
She's weak compared to some characters in the series, but she's still way to OP for what she reasonably should be able to do, and has no defining character traits that justify her skills, bravery, or likability, let alone any actual character flaws. She's just an easy character for people to relate to, because she is a blank slate that can be projected onto, and is powerful enough that we as viewers can vicariously live a power fantasy through her unjustifiably successful actions.

I.E., Mary Sue

The point is that Kreia despises people because they are too reliant of the Force. Nihilus is a prime example. He has to eat worlds trough the Force to even survive, and she required you to kill him.

The Exile is a wound in the force, an empty hole of the Force. When you confront Nihilus he tries to drain you, like everything else. Instead by trying to drain you he starves himself, because you are a void, an empty hole.

I think thats the whole point, and why Kreia is so obsessed with you, by killing him you proved Nihilus wrong.

Do you really need to ask? If you played kotor 2 you know how the jedi are portrayed. They're arrogant, passive, and completely disorganized leaders. They're pretty much a jab at the jedi council from the prequels. They're also all in hiding in kotor 2, so they really CAN'T use it. They're not fighting the kind of war they were in 1.
>>
>>323048732

Why the fuck are they trying to do that? what made Star Trek strong and different was the political message that mixed with Sci-Fi and how they responded to trouble.

Literally the end result of KOTOR 2. The entire counsel is either killed, wiped of their force powers, or falls to the dark side and enters exile. After you disappear into the unknown regions, your crew becomes the new Jedi Order, made up of Atton, Brianna, Visas, Bao-Dur, Mira, and Mikal as the Head of the Counsel (which makes sense, he's the only one who ever actually trained with real Jedi, even if he's a cuck). They will forever be remembered as the most sarcastic, dysfunctional Jedi counsel ever assembled.
>>

Kylo Ren being what he is makes sense in context though because he's intentionally trying to be another Vader from his looks to his mannerisms.

It's not my fault KOTOR2 is pretentious.

Take it up with the retard who thought we all needed to be told that Star Wars is just simple fantasy and that simple fantasy is dumb.

Onderon makes me think the ending of the game was rushed.

The General is kinda evil but he's not exactly -wrong-

The Republic is fucked up and in the Light Side ending Onderon DOES lose all its traditions.

Moreso, a Queen and her Jedi advisor making a decision for millions is a bit presumptous. Not that a Populist leader is much better, but I don't think siding with the General is clear cut evil

He's not even racist, Onderon is fine with Twileks and the like, they just don't wanna be part of the Republic that gets its shit kicked in every hundred years or so
>>
>>323041092
He's both the most and least powerful.

Most because of his raw ability, least because he is literally nothing without it.
Sion may rely on his powers, but it's not the extent of his being; Nihlus is defined solely by them, and went down like a bitch because of it.
It's quite heavily implied that he'd have eventually went the way of Ungoliant even if you hadn't killed him

Kek, I just might. I'm a Liberal but we've become so fucking bogged down with identity politics that we forgot about the whole "raising people out of poverty" thing.

I sided with the General because I thought about Padme and the Jedi, and how they're so fucking detached from the needs of the common people they let millions die.

The General on Onderon didn't really seem like a bad dude. He was remarkably practical. I love the bit where he's fighting a duel with the Queen, starts losing, then remembers he has a fuckton of troops and just sics them on her.
