FEAR MY SHARK ROCKET IT REALLY SUCKS AND BLOWS

If Jaessa looks like her then clearly my SW made the correct choice in making her go DS despite being LS himself, just for the (loving hilarious) romance option.

... nevermind the fact that my SW's name is Dyspareunia... :gonk:

Of course she's still second place to the real Mako.

I'm honestly surprised Kira and Mako aren't coming back since AFAIK they, along with Vette, are the most popular comps.

How much romance content did they include for them?

And is Kaliyo really a romance? The game seemed to think my Agent was in a relationship with her when all they'd done was go for a drink (and she wouldn't even kiss at the end wtf?)

Temple demanding I break up with Kaliyo was funny too, as all I'd done with the former since she came aboard was verbally abuse her okay one funny [Flirt] option, which is one less than I used with Scorpio.

I don't know if it depends on the companion, but with some all it takes is one flirt and they're convinced you've hooked up. On my first Smuggler I flirted once with Corso and he kept giving my girl all the romance talk whereas with my replacement smuggler was mean to him constantly and he only bitched when she hooked up with everyone other than him.

It's not that difficult to understand. Every romancable companion has extra romance dialogues. If, during them, you choose flirt options instead if turning them down, it turns on the romance. This happens with every one of them. This is why on my Jedi Knight Doc flirted once in his conversations, and after I firmly told him no (twice in one conversation) he never flirted again.

The same thing happens with all the base game companions.

I'll probably have to replay some storylines because I could've sworn that I wasn't getting the romance dialogs on other characters like my Smuggler was with Corso off of just one flirt.

Witty phrases on random basis
Farmboy is apparently locked on very first flirt, or the drunk convo. If I bother coming back at some point, he'll need to be dealt with...but pissing him off by flirting with anything else is hilarious in hindsight.

Too bad the male snuggle VA does such a better job than the female. Playing Sorc now and it seems to be the exact opposite, but then again my female SI was Dark so that might confound it... LS SI has a lot of dull lines.

Also I always liked the female Consular voice. She seemed to nail the balance between "serene and focused" and "not wooden or robotic" pretty well. Plus Jo Wyatt is amazing in almost anything (Fem Agent)

I'm not a fan of the script for Inquisitor so far. Every dialogue option seems to be a lame quip, not a lot of roleplaying potential (still on Korriban).

The biggest difference between top and bottom options has been the voice actresses delivery, it's like two different voices.

I find dark side works so well with SI, the voice suits my Rattataki assassin so well

Looks like DvL is here to stay also, if I'm reading that right.

Edit: actually, it looks like its not quite the same as what's going on now. Just going off the bullet points it doesn't mention any of the level bullshit that the current event has.

I disagree, I quite like the female smuggler voice. But it might be because I'm playing her mostly dark side.

As far as Inquisitor, I don't know. I don't care for storyline or the companions, but I really enjoy the Inquisitor itself as a character and the voice acting.

Yeah the Dark vs. Light with 5.0 is completely different from the event. It is an ongoing process that spawns extra bosses and such.

Thanks, I am really happy with how that saber set came out. It has a much wider and differently animated unstable effect. Also the dual version rocks my socks.

SWTOR doesn't usually play well with overlays. I think the secret is running Steam as admin AFTER you've launched SWTOR. That's how i used to have to get Mumble to work.
