Fifty Shades of Vader.

@Dark Wind you know what you love about you gm? the fact that you just keep on going.

@boomlover

I eat a bowl of coffee and energizer batteries for breakfast every morning.

@Dark Wind I actually really appreciate this, don't have to guess all the time, thank you very much. :D

@Sohtem its basicly this we all wait for here to post. its brilliant.

Booted up Old Republic to get into the Star Wars mood again -- man, they've really changed a lot in that game since the last time I logged in! Any of you folks play (or have played)?

@Lucky Knight nope currently playing wildstar. It just came out on steam.

@boomlover Well I just meant for just generally checking everything. :P

@Sohtemlol also @sol Will be joining us today :). I do hope he makes something that isnt a jedi.

@boomlover Awesome, more the merrier I always say.

@Lucky Knight

I only play KOTOR I and II. There's a bit of a bias with me against the MMO, lol.

All I want is KOTOR III, and I want it to be more glorious than anything ever.

@Dark Wind. ITS NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN !!!

@Lucky KnightNo I tried but my computer is shit so I doubt I would've had much luck anyway. It has trouble playing god damn GBA games.

@boomlover

I will roast you in the fires of the most hideous and excruciating flames that Sith Magic can conjure.

Heretic filth.

Seconded! The MMO is just...neh ;w; I gave it a go the other day because I wanted to see if it actually added anything to the lore/storyline but it's just not the same or as good as the two KOTORs, I would have rather had a KOTOR III D:

@Dark Wind ill either post today or tomorrow.

I'm actually a pretty big fan of the SW MMO but I will completely grant that it does nothing good at all for the extended KOTOR meta story. In point of fact it absolutely violates it, coming off as bad fanfic in its best moments and an absolute disgrace in its worst (such as the Shadows of Revan expansion pack). They also distill KOTOR II down into being basically non-canon, which I'm pretty sure is a federal crime.

But to me the value lies in realizing that 90% of the MMO's story is set hundreds of years later and is for all intents and purposes unrelated to the KOTOR games. Many of the class storylines are just plain fun -- the Sith Warrior and Sith Inquisitor being my personal favorites -- if not particularly complex or deep, and the Force abilities are a lot of fun to see in action. The music is great, the atmosphere felt spot-on, some of the lore is intriguing, and I really enjoyed the idea of an Empire / Republic cold war.

The new expansion stuff seems like they're trying to turn back towards writing a proper RPG and so far it's doing a fairly good job. And they got Jeremy Irons on board somehow, which is neat. But I have to admit I find myself quickly losing interest -- the characters are really not very interesting ultimately, and the villains are cardboard cut-outs (with the exception of a dude named Valkorion). I'm also firmly in the camp of wanting an actual KOTOR III.

Plus, the MMO could use some serious gameplay and graphical polishing; I've been playing a fair bit of FFXIV which blows Old Republic out of the water. Haha.

Ugh do not even talk to me about how they basically declared the KOTOR lore all un-canon. Nope. Nope nope nope nope nope! Heresy!! *agitated screeching* xD Even with all the hacked/unfinished content in the vanilla version of KOTOR II it's still got better plot than the MMO
