Current Events > Playing KotoR for the first time. Spoilers as I progress.

(+) Yeah! (+)

I've had it on Steam for the longest, decided I'd finally get around to try it. I already know that twist. I was spoiled years ago from an X-Play top ten list lmao. Picking a female rogue, because rogue is the best class in any WRPG. Don't know how long I'll stick with it.

1. First things first, this Trask guy needs to stfu. Like holy crap this ship is being blown up and you have all this time to tell me my life's story?
2. Lol what kind of name is Darth Malak? Is he gonna challenge me to a card game?
3. My character has dat ass
4. It's going to take me a while to get used to this combat system. I get what they're going for, but it feels janky
5. So Trask confronts a dark jedi, but the doors close before we see anything happen. lol, if he's not a throwaway NPC then this Trask guy is totally a villain.
6. I cannot get this stealth unit to work for me lmao. Enemies spot me almost instantly.
7. Made it to the first town. I told this woman I'd save her ass but I got dark side points lol.
8. Carth is okay I guess.
9. I do love that breaking into people's houses to steal their shit is called out. But I don't get any dark side points for doing it so, weak move, developers. >_>
10. So upon receiving the sith costumes, it has occured to me that I've been naked this whole time.
11. and I got ganked as soon as I went to the lower city.
12. went and bought some slightly better armor. Is it normal not to be able to afford anything?
13. jeez louise, all this getting bounced around for quests. Is this what ROS feels like? That movie doesn't open in Korea for another few weeks so I legit don't know. <_< Go to Gabon, but he won't help unless you win a race, but first you need to get the twinkle because she has the race winning engine, but oh no her wookie was stolen, now you gotta go in the sewers. Like shit. This Bastille better be cute at least, making me go through all this trouble.
14. I finally got the stealth unit to work, and got to the "undercity" entrance. But it was pointless because Carth needs to be with me lol.
15. "open the gate, I'll kill the ghoul". *gets killed instead* *shocked pikachu.jpg*
16. I made it into the sewers, but behind one of the doors were like, five of those fat orc things from Return of the Jedi and they wiped me, Carth, and the Twinkle like we were nothing.
17. it occurs to me that i can equip my party members, and not just my character, with armor. But I can barely afford any and I don't think I can grind in this game lol.
18. still gonna run around naked as much as I can though because, again, that ass

...that's enough for tonight. Game is pretty fun. I'm assuming the good shit comes later because to be completely honest, this is just okay. Maybe it would've blew my mind when it came out, but I was a Gamecube kiddie. Also, everyone talks so...much. About so...many...details...that I just don't need to know. Like this is straight up Lucas-tier writing lol.

combat sux but it is alright once you level up some.

---

The game gets much better after you leave Taris

---

Yo if Bastille could do all that stuff what was even the point of me saving her? >_>

---

I really need to troubleshoot the crash I keep getting onboard the Leviathan. It's literally keeping me from beating the game after all these damn years of restarting 3-4 times.

Bastilla Shan is the finest chick round.

persuasion once again proving to be OP and I am totally vindicated when I pump all my skill points into it in every video game where it exists.

Granted, I sort of threatened this shop owner to give me a free droid or Id destroy the place...

but free droid!

Cleaned up most of the side quests except for that shitty space blackjack and now Im in front of the Sith Base. Gonna call it a day for now.

The computer outright cheats at Sabacc.

They call it out in KotOR II.

---

Lol well thanks for the heads up. Wont waste my time with it then. >_>

...

my character is still naked lmao.

---

Hey man, I like Sabacc (even though it sucks).

---

Game aged POORLY!

But good luck - I still love it.

---

Finally got off Taris. Glad to know helping anyone down there was a massive waste of time lol. Should have just gotten some money for bounties while I was down there if they were all gonna die anyway. >_>

This dialogue is killing me. Like, literally killing me. That mob boss was speeding through his lines as if the actor had to be at the airport in an hour. <_<

Also, this game should never do ship combat ever again.

Overall the Sith building was a decent difficulty spike. I had to actually put on clothes to survive. Gave that Wookiee dual-wielded vibriswords and he killed pretty much everything though.

Also having second-thoughts about Rogue. It looks like computers might have been even more OP.

Gonna save on Dantooine before I do anything and call it a night.
