Fallout influences

That sounds interesting, too bad the crappy combat will stay untouched... anyway, what would really get my hopes up for this game was if they said they would be adding some shades of grey to the choices you make... I don't know how most people feel, but the fact that your choices usually were either perfectly good or perfectky evil (and it was always clear wich was wich, with no consequences besides the immediate) always pissed me off. There are no misguided people in the game, there are only evil and good. This is another great thing they should learn from the fallouts, most characters in them weren't plain good or evil (take the master, as the greatest example).


oh, and befor i forget, i usually start reading 4too's posts, but then ask "what the hell is this guy trying to say?" and then i see who's posted, and i skip ahead.
 
I feel similar about choices in K1. But I think there were 'good choices' and 'bad choices of some really but really stupid ogre'. I mean I could come up with a couple of more evil choces to each situation that would inflict more damage ( whatever evil definition of damage you can think of ) not only to my speaker but more people or even whole planet and that's not all ... they'd thank me for advide and became my trusted allies. ( muhahaha ) Ehem ... To make it short, moral side of game was below cartoons for 10 year old kids.

Anyways i agree that if that wont get fixed then game is going to nowhere. Aside form crappy combat system shallowness was most pissing thing in the game. If someone planned better good/evil choices that itself would bring more deep into game ... sigh, deep so much needed.

I think the black/white part might be as a result of Luca$art$ influence........

I've heard similar concerning Lucas - that he really dislikes the implications "shades of grey" bring to his plain GvE ideological universe. He's paranoid about his franchise.
 
No he isnt, in the SW books he's allow the most recent (SW timelinewise) series of books, the NJO series, to have numerous shades of grey (though far less than most other generes).

Not that that says much, since the NJO series is to SW books like POS is to Fallout. Basicly, they didnt even have all of the authors know what the fuck they were writing (some had read 5 or less SW books beforehand,) and couldnt even keep the characthers in chracther.
 
Still in 2nd part of SW Anakin starts to get "twisted" by dark side in a very subtile way. There's no "Go there and kill all these mofos !" ( these responsible for his mother's death ) but due to dark side all mofos get killed anyways. Second thing is whole love part that stands against jedi rules. I guess it could be called shading of good and evil.
 
Yeah, but that wasnt a true shade of grey. He had evil in him when he did that, while he felt sorry for it, it still was adark act.
