Spoiler:

just do stuff to "get the exchanges attention" by causing trouble. do lots of quests, especially one's that affect the exchange

[Dis]

I'm not going to read those spoilers until I finish the game.

So I'm off. see ya.

[Kassiopeia]

Edit: Ignore me, I've got it cleared.

If in doubt, going back to the Ebon Hawk seems to always help things along in the game.

But I have to say the game does rather lead you by the hand so often that the odd head-scratching moment is a nice contrast

I was a little confused to what to do near the end (I still haven't finished, my mother came over today- so I had to stop playing).

I had done the quest to find everyone. I even went to the planet I was supposed to arrange the get together. I ended up talking to Kreia, and that set things in motion.

[DrSpike]

This arrived today. I'll probably start next weekend.

Yes, as it did this time too. And back on Dxun too.

Well I don't know, I spent about an hour just wandering around hunting for that final quest to complete. It does artificially lengthen play time. OTOH, for some reason it doesn't get really boring... maybe it's that soothing sound the lightsabre makes. Whumm, whumm, whummwhumm KIIIIISSSHH whumm KIIISSH.

By the way, OMG my Consular/Master is a serious badass.

Spoiler:

Nab Shaddaa - The fight against vastly inferior opponents with vastly superior numbers in the poison gas bar. I'm Light Master but I absolutely adore my Force Lighting power. It PWNS everything in sight, killed most of those little annoying things in one shot. Force Wave is nice if they gang up on you. And throwing the lightsabre is cool as ever too. I guess it wouldn't be so FUN if I weren't a sucker for some good old Star Wars.

[Dis]

hah!, can anyone beat the 184 damage I did this morning with 1 light saber hit? And this was without using any force powers or stims to beef myself up.

[Kassiopeia]

Wow, that's insane! My consular with a doublebladed sabre can so far only do about 40 with both blades, totaling ~80 in one attack. But then I haven't really put effort on building up strength ("only" 18), my wisdom is 26 now however. Max. force points is around 350 IIRC.

I keep saying "my", "me", "I". I did name my character after me too, but what the heck, "Antti Helin" could pass for a Star Wars name any day in the English-speaking world. Right?

[Tassadar500]

When I played, there was some serious lag during the battle in Nar Shadaa that Kass just mentioned. But I won't go into details so I don't have to put spoiler tags in .

my next game I'm going to go opposite.

Dark side.

and instead of putting my str, const, and dext at 16, I'll probably have my wisdom, dest, and charisma at 16. Though that would give my only 8 strength, and 8 constitution . That could prove challenging. Obviously I'll be choosing finesse.

The particle fog effects are a pretty hardcore workout even for my w00tly video card.

I just spoilt myself and looked to see who the final boss is.

Spoiler:

Bruce Willis is dead all the time

[Kassiopeia]

Phew, I managed to resist the urge to read that spoiler. The tags are a godsend but I prefer ROT13 encoding because it needs so much more effort to decypher. Plus you can't Reply w/ quote in this thread at all now.

However,

Spoiler:

I AM expecting a KOTOR1-like w00ty twist in the plot, so maybe the final boss has something to do with that.

I'm far enough in the plot, I have a pretty good idea who it will be. I'm almost finished.

Now my mother has left, I should get back to playing. I should be able to finish in a couple of hours.

[Dis]

I'm to the final battle, but I cannot win it .

The entire game is so incredibly easy, and then this battle. argh. impossible.

I may actually have to lower the difficulty down to normal, but I don't even know if that will help. I put on my force gear to help resist the force, but I still can't resist the stasis attack of the final boss.
