yeah I got kind of carried away
Well, you got some awesome stuff, at least.
And Halo 3 too :P
Holy crap thread hop 12 pages.
@CentralAvenue: What's with Merritt Parkway and how it has totally different sign styles and fonts from West Cross Parkway north of it and Hutchinson River Parkway south of it, both of which have standard highway sign style?
Morena Baccarin's boobs are in my TV.
there's a god
And I'm quite the shallow man, yes
>not referring to bros as pansy beta faggots
You and I can never be friends, then.
>Using the words "pansy beta faggots"
>One after the other
I'm sure that's just taking grammar down to an alley and raping it.
> Implying that a pansy alpha faggot would be something to aspire to being
So, finished Seven Soldiers. The ending was a bit...uh...I dunno, over the place? I guess that closing seven storylines would do that, but still. But this was definetly more about the build up than the actual war.
Sometimes the Light-Side choices in The Old Republic make me feel like shit.
There was this quest on Coruscant, where some people loyal to the True Republic asked me to steal some documents, because the guy they were being delivered to was going to make a political push to ally the Republic with the Sith. Only, one of the Senator's aides caught me, and he pointed out that in stealing them, not only was I betraying the Way of the Jedi, but I was also stealing everyone's right to choose. (The other thing he didn't point out but I noticed was that I was showing an utter lack of faith in everyone.)
So I gave him his package back.
I have never felt worse for gaining Light-Side Points.
Oh, I was reminded recently of how, when my sister was 4, she was the one who made me finally figure out how to tell when a pot of water is boiling while the lid is closed
God I feel so incompetent sometimes
I still remember the scene on Tatooine in the first game; a woman who's lost her husband begs you to buy a plate (I believe it was from the skull of a creature) for 500 credits since she doesn't have a license to sell it. The Darkside option is to demand she give it to you for free (by various means). The light-side is to give her the 500 she wants. The ultra-lightside is to give her that, plus 200 more.
I liked that choice.
I would think the ultra-lightside choice would be to give her the money without asking for anything in return.
It was prolly an ugly plate, anyway
Some of the Light-Side choices in this game are pretty tough. There's one scene on Tython where you're asked to help a guy lift a rock, because he can't do it. You have to meditate and then lift the rock.
However, the Padawan's master comes over and tells both of you off, because he wasn't supposed to lift the rock; it was supposed to be a test of perseverance.
You're left with two options; you can either take the blame, or let the kid take the fall and not become a Jedi. If you choose to take the fall, and thus let the kid remain a Jedi, you gain Dark-Side points for lying.
Oh, okay. Forgive me, I have only been here for 3 days.
No no. It's cool. I just wanted to explain the joke to you.
John Cheese is my favourite writer. He's like an inverse David Wong.
His "life lessons" can get pretty grating, if you ask me. He's, for now, still leagues above Wong though.
Nova: Really?
That IS rough. But I guess in line with the movies (Anakin DID get emotional, which helped lead to his downfall, and did dark actions because of his emotions...)
Yeah. The game is set a long time before the movies, so the Jedi are still determined to cut themselves off from emotion. They must be cold, unreasoning logic machines.
The Jedi are fairly dickish up until Luke's founds his new Jedi order in...11ABY, IIRC.
Funnily enough, Luke's Jedi order arguably works better in 30 years than the old Jedi order did in 30 centuries.
The Jedi, from what I've seen here, have lost a lot of what made their Order great in the first place, and their Order wasn't so great even back then.
Well when you consider the Order isn't really the Order per se and is what the companions of the Exile rebuilt after the first Great Jedi Purge (I believe it is, at least)...
In much the same way a sprained ankle beats a shattered kneecap.
Also, how did I just get Social Points for this quest? I did it on my own!
And this quest also marks the first time I've deliberately chosen an option that gives me Dark-Side points. (There's a mission, Crisis in Galactic City, where you have to stop an attack on the Republic Headquarters. You find a holorecording during it that implicates one of the senators as taking money from gangsters, and you take it to her to consider what to do. The thing is, the Senator really is a good person, and she's trying her best to help the city- she thought that the issue would lead to assassination attempts on her person, not to war. You can either reveal the holorecording to the public, earning you Light-Side points and destroying her efforts to rebuild Coruscant, or destroy it, earning you Darrk-Side points and keeping her in her position.)
We're you grouped up when you turned it in?
Anyway, when I play, I generally like to make up personalities and motivations for my characters, and base my decisions on that rather than Light/Dark.
Like, my Imperial Agent was taking mostly light side choices up until chapter 2. Then (without spoiling anything) something happened in the story that pissed me/the character off so much (in a good way), that I started taking a lot more dark options, and now she's pretty much gray.
