Regalingualius posted:“The Carth” of BioWare games, as I’ve come to codify it, is typically: -Implying dealing with past tragedy isn't a good enough arc in itself. Yeah, lots of people say they hate Carth, but nothing on that list is a reason to. The one other big reason I've heard that hasn't been mentioned here yet just makes the people making it look like assholes. Carth himself is one of the better-done examples of the archetype in any case.

Carth's attempts at "flirting" do not match up with his core character at all. Frankly, the only way I can make sense of it is the possibility that he's trying to annoy you so you'll stop asking questions. Side note, in the SWD20 rulebook, an R2 unit costs 4,500 credits off the shelf. Then again, a generic-brand blaster rifle costs 1,800. Plus, y'know, several millennia are supposed to have passed between these games and the movies.

Comrade Koba posted:Does it ever get properly explained in this game or the sequel why the Mandalorians decided to attack the Republic or is it all handwavey space-mongol bullshit? The information is there in this game, as a single line in a companion conversation which the PC doesn't have time to consider the implications of. KOTOR 2 notices those implications and builds on them. TOR and its tie-ins go against the message of KOTOR 2 but spell it out very clearly.

Carth comes the closest to pointing out how screwed up that is - though even he doesn't go far enough. First the Jedi trick you into becoming an enemy, then they welcome you back as a friend. I can't say I approve of their training methods.

Here's what Carth actually says about giving the widow money.I'm glad to see we're still the good guys here. Sometimes I think we forget that.

I know that Mission's personal quest can bug out if you don't progress her conversations far enough before finishing up with the Sand People.

FoolyCharged posted:Yeah, the storyteller provides some pretty interesting lore, but as the sole reward for a unique lightsaber mod that at this point is pretty drat good is... not a great trade. Especially since if you're seeing this you're probably light side route and thus only have 1 pearl period. Saving, seeing it, and then reloading is such an optimal thing I'm not even sure why they didn't change the test to just be showing the chief the pearl, rather than giving it. Well, it's not actually the sole reward. The Gaderffii you can loot by waiting until after he's around to provoke a fight has decent stats.

We're far enough in the past that the Rule of Two hasn't been invented yet. You don't need to do deep lore dives to figure that's what Bioware's running with.

This is why I save Korriban for last. On top of it being... the most blatantly dangerous of all the options, doing it after the reveal makes it into notRevan taking another look at the Sith ways.

Sword_of_Dusk posted:Nolan is an idiot. Why not grab some kolto and test the toxin out on first beforehand? What intelligent person would just assume the kolto would be okay after being exposed to an untested toxin? He doesn't assume there are no effects on the Kolto. He just doesn't care.

ikanreed posted:The only character it makes sense to want to kill runs away so he can be in Kotor 2 CzarChasm posted:If you have Juhanni pursue the dark side do you still have to kill her if you side with Bastilla? You can't make Juhanni pursue the dark side. Killing Xor is a one-time thing that leaves her back at the repenting for her temper stage again.

achtungnight posted:What I wonder about is where Malak gets all the crew to operate and maintain all these ships. Droids made by the Star Forge can only do so much. And when one ship after another is instantly generated with instant crew in full operational condition, the bullshit meter runs into overdrive. Unless of course we're using "Your Mind Makes It Real." Most of them must be drones under AI or remote control. There's no way that Malak has any more people than Revan took with him in the first place.
