Models look like they're the ones from the original KOTOR. The Sith soldiers look the same, as does the head in the upper right of the first pic. Probably temp models.

I'll assume you mean "it kills the feeling WHEN all jedi use lightsabers on all their limbs".

Perhaps, for you, it does. However, you're in the minority. You can, of course, choose to play with--gasp--a single lightsaber.

[TopAce]

I have always prefered single lightsaber. Even in Jedi Academy.
There are two thing I do not take care:

1. I am in minority. I got used to it.
2. Your opinion.

[mikhael]

See, you've already solved your problem, TopAce. I wasn't giving you my opinion. I was stating fact:

1. You're in the minority, as you agreed
2. You don't have to use dual sabers.

I really don't care if my opinion matters to you. You are, as I have pointed out before quite free to ignore me. Your profile setup has the option to hide every word I say. I invite you to do so.

I like having lightsabers in both hands cos I think it's cool


anyway I think KOTOR2 will be Uber cool but that just my opion
and cos KOTOR is one of best RPG's I ever Played

What magazine was this preview of KOTOR 2 in? I HAVE to see the article for myself!

[mikhael]

Looks like Electronic Gaming Monthly.

IMHO, I was kind of hoping for a better storyline... I mean, not that I liked where the first KOTOR was, but the way HIG put it, it seems like it's just right before KOTOR, but with the same themes of characters and such, which would kind of suck. That and if Revan came back, Revan would either have to be dark or light, which kind of messes with KOTOR's ending a bit.

Now if they flat out did something during the Mandolorian Wars or sommat and dropped the Revan part, that would be neat, although I'd rather see progression in the story rather than a prequel.

[Grey Wolf]

It's after, according to the articles he posted. Says that Revan left a year or so after the last game. Odds are, he/she's going to be light side, as there are still Jedi around

Male or female, though, is a good question.

[Knight Templar]

Female

GreyWolf: Actually, the entire story of the game is that your character is the last jedi alive. At least, that's what they say in the article.

TopAce: I pointed out that the article said February 2005 because HIG said the rumored release date was the end of this year.

That doesn't jibe with anything I know about the Jedi order in the Old Republic era. Something as monumental as the near extinction of the Jedi only happened when Emperor palpatine took over between Episode III and Episode IV, when Luke Skywalker became the last Jedi and had to rebuild the Jedi from the ground up by himself. Nothing in any sort of Star Wars canon anywhere has even hinted that the Jedi were so nearly wiped out before.

The nice thing about KOTOR I was that its history meshed so well with the previously mentioned canon history of the Old Republic from the comics and books, like the Exar Kun war, the Great Hunt and so on. If KOTOR II were to say that the Jedi Order had to be rebuilt from the ground up after nearly becoming extinct in the exact manner as in Luke Skywalker's time, KOTOR II is going to seriously suck ass.

What it sounds like is that both the Jedi and the Sith have a lot of issues going on from trying to pick up the pieces of what Revan did. (whether good or bad) The return of the exiles (namely you) seems to be what will tip the balance.

Probably most Jedi are in hiding now, especially with the Sith reforming arround a few lords.

Quite honestly though, I don't care if it violates Star Wars canon as long as it's a good, entertaining game. Since it's being done by a lot of the people who made Planescape: Torment, if it can have some of that twist and the same depth of characters it'll be great.

I am not adding anybody to my ignore list unless he drives me up the wall too much.

[mikhael]

I shall endevour to try harder to be worthy of your abject scorn.

[TrashMan]

WE shall see how it will end up..

Oh ...and for those who like playing KOTOR with one lightsaber (I like both with one and with two).. these is a great-saber mod out there...yes...a GREAT, BIG  TWO-HANDED lightsaber that will make people think twice before they choose Two-weapon fighting...
