Didnt this game release many years ago?



toggletoggle post by reimroc at Jul 20,2010 3:49pm
You're thinking of Knights of the Old Republic a single player RPG made by the same company Bioware.



toggletoggle post by c.dEAd at Jul 20,2010 3:50pm
Post how it is as well.

Well I can say just from reasearch that I'm probably going to start off with a Jedi Consular. The buff/mage type class republic. Fuckwin abilities such as:

- Force Pull - Draws an opponent closer
- Force Push - pushes an opponent away and knocks down
- Force Slam - Lifts an opponent into the air and slams him then into the ground
- Force Wave - 360 degree arc attack
- Meditation - Out of combat self heal abilty
- Mind Maze - CC ability
- Power Saber - Lightsaber attacks against multiple opponents
- Saber Flurry - Three lightsaber attacks against a single target
- Saber Thrust - Powerful lightsaber attack against a single target

A lot of those abilities are from the force unleashed too.

all starwars games are politically correct. No blood or swears. Show me a Lucas Arts SW game that is rated MA or GTFO.

I'm also glad that i'm not the only one the played EQ. I played/wasted too much time on that game around Shards of Velious era.



toggletoggle post by arilliusbm  at Jul 20,2010 7:11pm
Only ultima online is real.



toggletoggle post by Slag at Jul 20,2010 7:12pm
Seriously though, only UO is real.

PVP will never be as good again.



toggletoggle post by narkybark   at Jul 20,2010 7:24pm
EQ was brutal. It hated the players so much. That made it oddly endearing somehow.

My only experience with EverQuest; Me trying out a friend's mage or necro or something.
"How do I talk to people?"
"It's a guard, he's not going to fucking talk to you."
"I don't care. I wanna talk to him."
"Press 'E'."
Which was bound to auto-attack and I died.
But this Star Wars game looks pretty neat.

EQ got pretty brutal with with corpse grinding. DAoC was pretty ridiculous too. SWG wasn't too bad until the jedi grind.



toggletoggle post by arilliusbm  at Jul 21,2010 8:32am
SWG was boring as fuck.



toggletoggle post by reimroc at Jul 21,2010 8:43am
Really you found it boring?



toggletoggle post by arilliusbm  at Jul 21,2010 8:56am
Runny around the country side hunting animals. Taking a 2 week break and finding out my armor and weapon was outdated. learned a bunch of skill then felt like I was wasting my time.
Modern mmorpgs feed off of peoples' addiction to leveling up. It's quite sad; they're one giant waste of time. Walking in the actual woods/countryside >>>>>> fake wilderness

I briefly tried Eve Online a few weeks ago. It was really quite excellent.
I quit after my first week.

I don't understand how anyone has time for MMO's anymore.... And achieving things in an MMO feels so... empty to me. I would much rather write a song or mix a track or exercise or do some worldly productive then grind and grind. This never used to be a problem, but I found that MMO's kept me from doing other things that I really should be doing.

I, however may be in the minority on this opinion. Thoughts?

my video card is fucked up, can't play any game for 2 minutes before it shuts off. i might get a new one this weekend.



toggletoggle post by arilliusbm  at Jul 21,2010 9:08am
Games that demand that much out of the player are simply unhealthy and a plague to to society. amirtie?



toggletoggle post by arktouros at Jul 21,2010 9:16am
Agreed about MMOs. Worst timesink ever. I know I'd like EVE but I can't start playing it for all the reasons above. They're only made to get long-term monthly fees from players anyway.



toggletoggle post by arktouros at Jul 21,2010 9:19am
That and I was literally addicted to WOW when I should have been working on not sucking so much at college.



toggletoggle post by arilliusbm  at Jul 21,2010 9:26am
all I did in college is play soldier of fortune II online and HL Mods, smoke and go to the gym. those were the days.

its not about how much time you have, but how you use it. you don't need all the time in the world to be successful in an mmo. it helps too if you kind of make it the only game you play.



toggletoggle post by reimroc at Jul 21,2010 9:32am
unless said mmo is super grindy

exactly why. They are demanding. Fuck that, I like spreading my time out with games.

I missed a lot of better games while I was playing WOW. Also, even if you put in the time investment to reach MMO endgame content (which I never even achieved), you will get raped by people with better gear because they play 25 hours a day.

remember that video of the kid that got caught fapping to WOW?



toggletoggle post by arktouros at Jul 21,2010 9:39am
And I don't doubt Bioware has what it takes to make an kick ass Star Wars MMO but I really don't want to invest the time. Even if they gear it more toward casual players, that just means watered-down content. I'll be playing StarcraftII anyway, so...
