LOL! Right! Sorry forgot about that! [img]graemlins/hidesbehindsofa.gif[/img]

Got the game myself today!! Wonderful, truly amazing! This game has great atmosphere and detail. I find the level design to be a little too simplistic, a lot of copying. I'm a little disappointed in that respect. Graphics are top-notch, unfortunately your PC has to be top-notch as well. Im running it on 1024 with all details high, 2x AA and 4x ANI. AA & ANI really produce enormous quality improvement for the grahics, high res and crisp clear textures. I may need to get new parts, because I really believe that this game should be onjoyed to the fullest. Although, *GASP*, prices ...... :(

The story of the game is ok so far, a little simplistic as well, not much depth or originality. The game makes me think of Omikron: The Nomad Soul and frankly, I find that game much better design-wise, how the city's lay-out is structured and so. Nevertheless, their are clear paths to take, light or dark side, something that produces nice results, dialogue and action wise and humor is also part of the game: anyone did that stupid dance yet? I felt compelled to ruin it for the lady, but then again, I am a good guy. [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

Bought it today and have played about 3 hours. I'm a bit disappointed so far, the game hasn't really grabbed me, and the voice acting, which I heard was supposed to be so excellent, so far hasn't impressed. Most characters' voices are, if not flat, then at least definitely not on par with Baldur's Gate I/II, the acting there truly gave all the NPC's perfectly realized and unique personalities. Maybe I just haven't played enough to have a valid opinion yet, but they say first impression is everything.

Good to see you guys are finally getting the game. Let me know if you want spoilers. And let me know if you get the dreaded Carth Freeze bug.

And then tell me your "funniest NPC" pick. I think overall I like HK47 best, but Jolee gives him a good run for his money.

I had a heart attack for a minute (yes, that is possible :D ) when my disk froze at 79 % install procedure, and it wouldn't work at a friend's computer either. So I raced back to the store, they gave me a new copy, and that one was working just fine...

Now if only I would have enough cash for a new graphics card, and I'll be just fine [img]smile.gif[/img] I can play it alright, but it crashes to Windows sometimes, and I need to have everything at "Low" to get the framerate right :(

Something similar happend to me with Fifa 2000.

my first game through i got this... 15 hours of playing down the hole.. i was screamin at the screen psh that sucked!

I have been playing it for days and I am quite addicted to it. However, it is recommended to install the beta patch (version 1.01b) if you are running boards with Intel 845/850 chipset.

Secondly, there are a couple of nasty bugs which you would want to stay clear off. Be prepared for it: (spoiler--scroll down)

1. Swoop racing - Do not finish too good in the Taris race or you will end up trying to beat up a better time from *amatures* in Tatooine. For example, my best time in Taris was 00:22:xx and I have to best the amatures' time in Tatooine with about the same time (00:22:xx) BUT with a standard swoop, which is almost imspossible...unless you have Jedi-like reflexes. My advice is to win the Taris course with a less-than-better-time like 00:38:xx or something.

2. Tatooine - in the Sand People camp, only open the cell door of the Jawas prisoners. Otherwise Mission's bother (if you have not had the quest to recue him) will not spawn later if his cell was opened earlier. FYI, his cell is the one opposite of the cell room of the Jawas prisoners.

3. Stats bug - For some unknown reason, some NPCs stats would revert to the value of 8 during level up. So, it is advisable to save your game before doing the leveling up. If you encounter the bug, simple reload your savegame and try again.

That's all I can think off for the time being.

Ok, did the good guardian radiating-with-blue-light roleplaying. Naturally the next step was being so evil, I'd make malak look like a teletubbie. I'm already threequarters down the drain, killed lots of innocents, did horrible and unspeakable stuff and I look worse than the Emperor from Return of the Jedi. Now everyone with even a little force sensitivity knows that I'm of the darkside, especially jedi masters. Now they already know that I'm actually revan himself. Despite that fact and that I'm radiating pure evil here, they STILL train me to become a jedi!! WTH? what would you do? So a valid alternative would be to get your jedi training at the sith academy at korriban. But they never exploited that path: you have to eradicate the entire sith academy, there is no other outcome. Very dissappointing.

Also: the items you can get for the lightside make you practically a demi god: who can withstand the force power of someone with 22 wisdom (17+5)? And the solari crystal for the lightsaber: major powerboosts+add. damage to darkside but restricted to light side? Where's the dark side counterpart? All we get is a pair of gloves that give lightsaber focus and specialization and a headband with +2DEX (IIRC) and +8 stealth! Dissappointing.

But despite the fact that the lightside is more indepth than the dark side, this game surely rocks the boat! Did you check out the eye-candy? This is the first game IMO that actually gives great usage to FSAA & ANI. What a great improvement!

[ADD] Ok, I've now also finished the game on the dark side and I retract my previous statement: the game does seem a little awkward at the start of the dark side, but in the end it all comes down really nice! Way to go Bioware!! :D

IIRC, you don't have to eradicate the academy on Korriban.
