I haven't played this game in a little over 15 years and the nostalgia is great. So many little character interactions I forgot about but it all comes back when I start talking with characters. The soundtrack is fantastic. I absolutely love the Taris Apartment music, which is Bastilas' theme if I recall. Looking forward to the Manaan soundtrack. I remember liking that one as well. Right now I've just landed at Dantooine. I also remember saving my level ups, thinking I was pretty smart to do so, on Taris. This time I didn't so it'll be interesting to see how different it is this way if I can remember enough to compare it to how I use to play. I know you're already on Dantooine but there's a Community Patch for KOTOR 1: deadlystream.com/files/file/1258-kotor-1-community-patch/ I use the patch and I've only encountered two bugs in my last playthrough which I finished a couple of days ago. Also if you're planning on playing the second game I recommend to mods that in my opinion are must haves. The first one is The Sith Lords Restored Content Mod. It restores whatever cut content was left on the disc. This is both a good and a bad thing because as Chris Avellone said that not everything the modders restored was meant to be in the final product. But there are two reasons why I recommend it one is that it restores cut scenes for the last planet Malachor, and two it fixes bugs. The second mod I highly recommend is the KOTOR 2 Community Patch Mod. Here are the links to both mods TSLRCM: deadlystream.com/files/file/578-tsl-restored-content-mod/K2CP: deadlystream.com/files/file/1280-kotor-2-community-patch/If you want to mod your games more I recommend following these mod builds guides: kotor.neocities.org/modding/mod_builds/It's a lot of mods but you don't have to install them all. just pick and choose what you want. There are also some tips on how to get both games to run well on modern hardware. I downloaded almost all of the mods listed in the mod builds and followed the tips to make the game perform better on Win 11, and it it is the closest to a remaster I will ever get to play.

So, after all this time, I finally noticed the adventuring party walking into the main menu screen.... I noticed for the first time a couple of days ago and I’ve been playing since early access.

Star Wars: The Old Republic
I played a bit with my Sith Warrior. I made him with the idea of showing compassion when it is necessary. I am on Balmorra and when dealing with the leader of a group of resistance fighters. My character chose to spare both him and his men although they will be imprisoned. Also the leader has to admit that the Republic illegally sent resistance fighters into Sith space. I went back to the Sith Lord and she was pleased. There was another mission where I had to "silence" the son of a Sith hero. I chose to spare him on the condition that he take an experimental serum that would erase his memory. Last year when I first created this character there was a mission where I had to kill the Sith Governor. One way to get to him was by killing his wife and son. I did not do that instead my character made an alliance with wife and son and with their blessing I killed the patriarch of the family.

The Exile is only on Republic side FPs (they are named Taral V and Maelstrom Prison, Republic and Imps have a different storyline). They are supposed to be done after you did the 1st planet in Chapter 2 (Balmora for Republic, Taris for Imps). I've done those so many times. I will keep an eye out for those Flashpoints.

Revan only appears in Flashpoints; Boarding Party and Foundry. Well, last I played which was a few years ago. Jedi Exile Meetra Surik appears as a force ghost in those same flashpoints. Oh I figured they would show up as Force ghosts since SWTOR takes place 300 years after the KOTOR 2.

Finished both Knights of the Old Republic games. Aside from the starter planets (Taris and Telos) the other ones were quite small. So I was able to finish them in 40 hours which was a big deal back then. But today with games like Baldur's Gate 3 which takes me nearly 40 hours to complete Act 1, 40 hours to complete a game is not a big deal. Tonight I will resume my Sith Warrior and Jedi Guardian campaigns in Star Wars: The Old Republic. I've played the game off and on for the past 6 years and never completed it. I don't know why. While I do not like mmo's SWTOR is basically an online single player game. I will try to finish both campaigns. I really want to see the Shadow of Revan expansion pack. Aside from the Revan cult I've seen no mention of him. Also the Jedi Exile Meetra Surik I haven't seen any mention of her either.

Wow I am 72+ and don't think I am anywhere near done. I don't own this game but what you posted reminded me of the first time I played BG3.

Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords
Reactivated HK-47 and forgot how talkative HK droids are. The HK-50 droid on Peragus talked my ear off. It's funny if you read the data pads and watched all of the holo vids everyone speaks about how much the Hk-50 droid talks, and their predecessor HK-47 is no different. We had a long conversation and his sense of humor seemed to be intact. That's all i did yesterday by the time HK-47 stopped talking I was sleepy and went to bed lol.

Knight of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords
Still on Dantooine and went to the crystals cave and rescued the ever so delightful Master Vrook. After being chastised by him for rescuing him he went to Khoonda. What I like about the meeting with Atris and Vrook is that when they accuse the the Exile of turning their back on the Order. We can justify our reasons or just agree with the Masters, and yeah yeah Vrook makes a good point about the Mandalorian Wars spawning a more deadlier war. But I've always agreed with Revan and the Exile. So anyway went back to the Ebon Hawk to try out the new crystal I found in the caves and had a duel with Visas. She always nearly kills me. Learned some interesting lore about her species, planet, master, and abilities. Chose to spare her and cause no more harm. Kreia as always was unhappy with my decision. Now I have to go back to Khoonda and get ready for the battle with the mercenaries. Oh and yeah The Disciple is now my err.. disciple. He quickly became a Jedi Consular with crappy stats.

Without spoilers what is the consensus on Dragon's Dogma 2? Although I am not active in social media when I'm watching a video on Youtube there are many that trash the game it's almost as much as Starfield. The most unhappiness is with the MTX I should think but generally from what I see of reviews, most players enjoy the game. I read about instances like; almost fell off the roof but the pawn grabbed me or my avatar walked by a pawn with outstretched hand and she clapped it or permanently stuck in the process of getting chewed up by wolves while the pawns kept healing the poor sod. The latest is that the devs are doing patches. They have recently added the option of a New Game button to the main menu. This however, doesn't mean there's another save slot. It just means abandoning a PT and restarting. I haven't watched any reviews either at least the ones from the big gaming sites. I just go by what the gamers who actually own the game have to say. As for the same save slot I recently played a bit of the first game and it too only had one save slot.

I thin ksom ear ehavin gmisgivings about the microtranasctions but som ehav eals osaid it's bvery playable even without them. Personally I' mno tsuer wha tt obelieve but I mostly judge htings on m yown experience in things like that. I'v enot played the game as I've been busy with Forbidden Wes ts ocan't mak etha tjudgement yet. I am looking forward t oplaying thoughas based of fwhat I'v eseen it look sfun enough but I don' tkno whow good I'll be a tit though. I am a little skeptical though as I heard i tdoesn't exactl yhav difficulty settings Wow! How did you know I meant DD2? I forgot to add the name of the title. But good deduction.

Although I am not active in social media when I'm watching a video on Youtube there are many that trash the game it's almost as much as Starfield. Going by the "many trash the game on YT", you are probably asking about Dragon's Dogma 2. From the thread, everyone on these forums who are playing it are liking it. I know some aren't as happy with it based on their expectation and are thinking of returning to the first game. But I'm personally enjoying DD2 more than I did the first game. Note that I barely touched the main story, I'm just exploring and doing side quests when I'm encountering them. Yeah I meant DD2. As for the videos I haven't watched them they just pop up on the front page. I am planning on buying the game I play the first game. Just wanted to know what the members here thought since most here seem sane and reasonable, unlike if I were to ask on Twitter which I never do.

Are you talking about Forbidden West? I'm enjoying it. While it starts out very similar to the first game there are a few aspects that make it different. Some of the mechanics I don't like - too many button combos and access to certain collectibles blocked until you advance the main story - but overall it's very good. There is a lot to do!
My mistake I mean Dragon's Dogma 2.

Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords
Came back last night and picked up where I left off. I finally finished the Sublevel of the Jedi Ruins. I had to rely on Kreia and her powers like Insanity to get by. This is the first time in 20 years that i had trouble with this section. I've played at least twice a year every year since 2004, and this time I chose the female Exile. The only problem I can think off is that as a female I can't recruit Handmaiden who is a beast of a fighter and she also gives the male Exile a bonus to both Wisdom and defense. Anyway recruited the Disciple for the first time. A lot of people don't like him but since I am a history buff I understand his passion for Jedi history. Oh and Atton had a problem with me recruiting him.

In principle you're completely right. But I'll be one happy camper if the game merely "fails to deliver" like Bloodlines, Kotor 2 or the first two Fable games. Warts and all. Never played Fable 2 and 3 although I did enjoy the first game. The first Fable was also another game that started with a lot of ambition and failed to deliver due to time constraints. I mean Peter Molyneaux promised us the world with the first Fable. Also I love the first Bloodlines and KOTOR 2. Two of my top rpg's of all time.

Been playing Oblivion and New Vegas. In Oblivion I completed The Shivering Isles expansion and after finding all of the Madness and Amber Matrix Ore. I will go back to Cyrodiil and do the main quest. Also I am using a very old mod that makes all of the unique items like Dawnfang scale with the player each time they level up. As for New Vegas I am idolized in Goodsprings after repelling an attack by the Powder Gangers. Was accepted by Primm after liberating their town from the aforementioned Powder Gangers, and went to the gangs base which was a prison and wiped out everyone except the inmate that used to be a sheriff. Was able to get the NCR to pardon the former sheriff, and had him installed as Primm's new sheriff. On my way to the Mojave Outpost I met a companion from a mod called Willow after getting back her shotgun and teddy bear she became a full fledged companion. At the Mojave Outpost I also met Cass. I did a quest for Ranger Jackson and a quest for the sniper Ghost. Met a member of Caesar's Legion at Nipton. Went to Novac to get information on the guy who shot me. Did the quest for Boone and got him as a companion. Boone is perfect for my sniper.

I bought the first game many many years on GOG.com, but only played a little bit. I put it off and eventually forgot about it. I know that the sequel has been released. Do you recommend playing the first game before the second. Is it like the Mass Effect Trilogy that it is one continuous story? Also I do not mind playing older games since right now I am replaying Oblivion and New Vegas, but how do you think the first game has aged? I'd give the first one a try just to see what their character creator was capable of twelve years ago. It also stands up quite well for an old action RPG. Thanks I already installed the first game. I will play it after I am done replaying New Vegas.

The first game isn't required for 2, which is a soft reboot set in it's own universe. The gameplay is similar enough that you should try the one you have first to see if you like it. Thanks for the reply. I will install the first gsme to try the gameplay.

Now we're talking. I read the blog and it does sound interesting. From what I read stealth does seem like a viable option as oppose to going in like the Terminator. It also made me realize I've been playing Tremere wrong in the original game. I like what I read but I won't get too hyped. Aside from Baldur's Gate 3 a lot of games that start with a lot of ambition usually never deliver due to cutting content because of greedy publishers, like what happened to the original Bloodlines and Knights of the Old Republic II. Thank you azarhal for the update!

I'm sort of glad there won't be any dlc or expansion. The game is already long enough. I mean it takes me 40 hours to fully finish act 1. That is insane. Most games are 40 hours long and in BG3 it's just the first act out of three. As is I struggle to even finish the game having only completed it once. So I can't imagine even more content added. Love the game and it's among my top 4 fantasy rpg's of all time the other three being Planescape: Torment, Dragon Age: Origins, and Knights of the Old Republic II.

I installed Oblivion with some mods that modernize it a couple of days ago. Been playing The Shivering Isles dlc before doing the Oblivion main quest. This playthrough is inspired by a book I read in Skyrim about Sheogorath challenging other Daedric Princes such as Hircine. So in current game once I become the new Sheogorath I will challenge Mehrunes Dagon. But currently I am fully exploring the Shivering Isles. I am also using some mods that enhance the Mad God experience.
I also installed Fallout: New Vegas with mods that modernize the game.

Dual wielding in early game doesn't work well, unless you support it with some other stat boost like Valor, stims, etc. It's normal the straight up boost with zero penalty from Dueling to feel better at this point.
Dual Wielding rocks when you overcome its penalties with midgame gear, buffs, etc. But it still may not be a strong solo tool compared to focusing on the benefits of the single weapon boosts. But once you get into crafting, that second weapon can be turned into a huge stat stick. You know what I remember now I have the KOTOR Save Editor. I will use it to swap dual wield for dueling. By the way I am playing as a Jedi Sentinel and am going to take the Jedi Weapon Master prestige class. But thank you for going into detail explaining the mechanics behind duel wielding.
