You gave Kreia Freedon Nadd's short lightsaber when you had her in your party on Onderon pt. II, didn't you anon?
>>330607829
I did, in fact. A little sword for a little guy.
>>330608078
for you
>>330607829
Yes. It just fits.
No anon, Kreia is garbage and so is the lightsaber. I used jedihandmaidand---HK47---
>>330608427
>Kreia is garbage
No shit. She was a forced party member in the assault on Onderon.
>>330607829
No, I gave it to Mira in her off-hand slot afterwards for the hit bonus
Betrayal
>>330607829
Yes. I figured everyone did this since you looted it 5 mins before and it's decent for a non upgradeable. That was the only time I ever really had her in my party so she had a sword until that point.
>>330607829
No, I never willingly used any of the short sabers unless I didn't have enough of the others to go around my party.
>>330608612
Kreia is actually good. The force bond was god tier for buffing your own character into a beast
>>330608612
>>330608427
What are you faggots talking about. Kreia was one of the best party members you could have in combat NotLikeThis
>>330607829
Kreia gave a XP boost to the exile, you were stupid not use her in your party
Kotor 1 is better than 2 in every way except it had carth

Kreia was awesome. She was a superb buffer that could buff the exile and herself at the same time. Then I had her do the party buffs too. Basically she was a buff champion+force lightning for easy moding the game.

The only thing better in 2 was the writing, especially character writing. The gameplay was theoretically more balanced but map and encounter design was fucking atrocious pretty much everywhere, not to mention there was less content in general.
>>330610727

Yeah I'll go start up a new game and waste time doing the first third of Peragus just to spoonfeed you.

Kreia's mentor feat gives 7% bonus XP while she is in the party. Its probably not even enough to give you an extra level by the end of the game, but they do explicitly tell you you'll get bonus XP using her. Obsidian wanted you to keep her in your party so you'd see all her master-apprentice dialog, its the same reason you share buffs cast on each other.
Kreia is objectively the best companion because of force bond. You just spec her into buffs and put her on Jedi support while she turns your exile into a monster.
She is however the most boring party member after your 1st playthrough. Most fun combo is HK and canderous.

I used Visas and Atton. Or Visas and Mira

combat was always easy after like level five. using kreia to turn the exile into the competely broken motherfucker s/he possible always just felt like cheating

Gameplay balance took the form of giving the player more abilities and buffing underused ones (for example, blaster pistols), which is not in itself bad but they neglected to nerf the overused abilities from 1 (dual saber flurry and force storm spam) making gameplay even easier. There is basically no challenge at all in the game, even for a new player using auto-level.
Encounter design didn't really give the enemies any interesting abilities to present the player with a challenge, and as a result the game's idea of challenge consisted of shoving a dozen or more enemies into a single combat encounter, which is tedious if you don't have Force Storm, and completely shat on if you do have Force Storm.
Map design was excruciatingly unpolished and exposed the bad AI, resulting in shit like having to wait or manually control a party member because they got stuck in a door frame. This also tied in to encounter design, because I swear to god every planet had at least three encounters where enemies were behind mines, resulting in your retarded companies charging straight through the minefield.
Now, it's important to note that all of these flaws were present in KOTOR 1. Most of it is in the engine, either the game's engine or the d20 system that the game is based on. But by virtue of being a completed game, KOTOR 1 had more polish and more opportunity to mitigate the above flaws, especially the ones related to the shitty AI.
nigga fuck this game
what the fuck is the difference between attack and damage
I think dragon age also had that weird shit
along with defense and armor being different stats
>>330614829
Attack is accuracy. Damage is damage. Armor is part of your defense (Armor Class) but not all of it.
So, I'm looking at the trophies for the steam version
>Get to Level 30
Fuck, I even installed that droid planet mod and could only get to 28, I'd need that and to recover every mine, fix every droid, slice every computer, and unlock every door.
>>330607829
i dont fucking remember
>>330614041
>all of these flaws were present in KOTOR 1
>moving the goal posts
Your point was that 2 was worse than 1 for these reasons
>gameplay balance
there's always gonna be a "best ability" that people spam. can't make everything perfectly balanced.
>encounter design
enemies had force powers. what else did you want? it's not a challenging game, but so what?
>map design
never had a party member get stuck anywhere. your party members charge in because that's what their ai (which you can change) is set to
I wish you could just fucking sheathe your fucking swords and blasters
It really looks retarded
even the lightsaber hilt
>>330615427
also never remove kreia from your party for the xp boost
>>330615652
>Your point was that 2 was worse than 1 for these reasons
Fucking read the entire post you mongoloid. I said the problems were less apparent in 1 even though they were present. They were more apparent in 2. This made 2 worse.
>it's not a challenging game, but so what?
So it's not very engaging if I can just stomp all over everything with no challenge. Again, I'm judging the gameplay. Lack of challenge is one of the reasons why the gameplay sucked, and it was worse in 2 because they decided to "balance" entirely through buffs, meaning every ability (except blaster rifles) was the best ability.
>never had a party member get stuck anywhere.
>your party members charge in because that's what their ai (which you can change) is set to
Yes, and this is a flaw, especially when we're talking about party members with enough Awareness that they can see the mines.
>not giving her a viridian saber
Matching colors is best
>>330615427
Was the Hssis glitch removed on the PC version? I know it's not there with the restoration mod installed, but if it is, maybe just get to Korriban and do that?
>>330614041
>balance took the form of giving the player more abilities and buffing underused ones (for example, blaster pistols), which is not in itself bad but they neglected to nerf the overused abilities from 1 (dual saber flurry and force storm spam)
Flurry needed no nerfing; power attack was always mathematically superior once you added in the extra attacks from dual wield and force speed, and critical strike was not even that far behind if you built your character around it.
I don't know why people always thought flurry was so overpowered, all the combat styles were good.
>>330607829
I didn't give that frigid bitch shit.
what's with bioware games doing this formula
>hey you you're just some clueless fuck

>>330617517
Its the best excuse for rampant space travel.
>>330616279
>more apparent
but they weren't. the game is an upgrade in every way except story and maybe atmosphere.
they buffed guns because they sucked and made non jedi worthless in the first game. and unless you stack strength or wisdom, max difficulty is fine for a game like this. I didn't play it looking for a challenge.
it's not a flaw because they are doing what their default behavior is set to. change the ai setting when you run into mines.
>>330617517
The first part is just standard rpg shit man. Its easy that way to allow people to roleplay almost any character they can come up with while still shoehorning them into the storyline that was written for them to play.
As for the rest, well, probably because it worked in KOTOR, so they just copied it across all their other games. BG's approach to content was clearly beyond their capabilities once they switched to 3D.
>>330611738
they could've accomplished that by not making her an insufferable cunt who won't shut the fuck up about your decisions
