It's in my top 3 games. Best Star Wars story.
right? People obsess so much over the original but fuck TSL was a wild ride. From a mysterious and empty mining facility full of corpses and hostile droids through planets teeming with civilization and some empty or abandoned, ending in the broken husk of a world that you destroyed, it's one hell of a story. All the best parts of Revan's story happened before and after KOTOR. KOTOR II really focuses on the climax of Meetra Surik's life.

In the Iziz cantina there's this Twi'lek named Jonra Farr who is an ambitious supporter of the General.
This game came out over a decade ago and she reminded me so well of one of those trump supporting girls on /pol/ I choked on my drink.
Anybody else play the shit out of this game when it was new?

and I have yet to meet anybody who actually thinks the plinkett reviews are right about even a moderate fraction of the things said in them
Lol what? You mean besides basically the whole star wars fanbase?
like I just said, I think it's a myth perpetuated by people who are sick of hearing about a very vocal minority's opinions

jar jar actually unironically looks great here
except for his clothes
jar jar looks godawful here, the fuck are you on about
describe the godawfulness
the meshes are okay, although vertex weight is poorly attributed and contributes to the next problem
his texturing is cartoony, and look like they were designed for higher poly meshes than production actually ended up using
these textures paired with the first problem create the effect Doom mentioned where he stands out way too much against his background, because he becomes incapable of reflecting light in the environment he's rendered in subtly, and he ends up either too vibrant for the lighting or just kind looks out of place.

Establishing Shot
sep7agon headquarters; a large glass modernist building in silicon valley
green hills roll in the background, a lighted sign bearing the sep7agon logo stands before the street in the bottom left corner of the screen
cut to a glass room enclosed by drapes with a long white conference table
two men sit at opposite ends staring venomously and intently at each other
Man 1 is wearing a black wool suit with a white silk shirt and New Balance tennis shoes.
His dark hair is buzzed close to his head, but not to where his scalp is showing.
He is not wearing a tie (important)
Man 2 is wearing a 3-piece khaki silk suit with single thread black pinstripes and a black shirt.
His hair is lighter, longer, and somewhat disheveled.
He wears a light blue tie, the same shade as the logo from the establishing shot.
MCU; Man 1; *scowls*
MCU; Man 2; *stares with contempt*
MCU; Man 1: I don't care about empirical evidence or what subjectivity is. I speak and that is the way things shall be!
MCU; Man 2: Your opinion is not the end-all-be-all. In fact, most of your opinions aren't even popular!
MCU; Man 1: My opinions are in concurrence with the source of all people's opinions, and therefore are universally held.
MCU; Man 2: (in disbelief) Do you even know what an opinion is?
ECU (eyes only; letterbox); Man 1: *stares just past the camera* (the focus and hatred in his eyes should be palpable)
MRP; Man 1: *slowly his face goes from anger to light amusement*
MCU; Man 2: *furrows his brow*
MCU; Man 1: *chuckles to himself* You see, that's a logical fallacy; whether or not I know what an opinion is does not impact the validity of my assertions as they are unrelated.
MS; Man 1: *stands, leans forward, and slams both hands on the table* Your logical fallacy is Ad Hominem!
MS; Man 2: *leaps from chair and takes a step back; he is taken aback with disbelief* You can't be serious!
WS; the drapes rise
a few dozen other people who also work at sep7agon headquarters stand outside the windows, laughing madly
MWS; (at the door): *people start entering the room, still laughing. Man 1 looks ahead at Man 2 smugly. The laughing grows more hysterical, people begin to point at Man 1. Others fall to the floor and clutch their gut. Man 1 realizes they are not laughing with him, they are in fact laughing at him*
MCU; Man1: *his smug grin is replaced by an embarrassed frown. he blushes visibly*
(same shot - begin slow zoom); disembodied voices: *the hysterical laughter continues* [ad lib: people make remarks in comic hysteria about how stupid Man 1 is]
(same shot - zoom continues); Man 1: *begins to cry*
screen cuts to black when zoom reaches CU
the laughter lingers for a moment
audio cuts to mute
Sep7agon logo fades in
[End]

reminder
he was a good, entertaining, and funny character with a fleshed out character arc
He was poorly executed cringy comic relief who couldn't decide what his role in the franchise was.
There's having a character arc, and then there's unfocused writing, the two are quite different.
even mike stoklasa (the guy who everybody gets their opinions on star wars from) admits that he had a character arc
"everybody gets their star wars opinions from one guy"
then how come everybody disagrees about everything dumbass
why are there 30,000 denominations of christianity
because not everybody gets their opinions from the pope
they get them from a book
plinkett reviews are basically the bible for star wars fanboys and spectrumites
not everybody agrees with what's in the bible many non-trinitarian denominations see the bible as a joke and read different texts nontheless you're comparing apples to oranges the bible is (largely) a collection of firsthand accounts, and in this formula it's equivalent to the films a review is more like a theological essay, fraught with opinion and infinitely refutable by anyone else who also read the bible, or any number of texts the catholic church decided not to include when they were editing the first bible and I have yet to meet anybody who actually thinks the plinkett reviews are right about even a moderate fraction of the things said in them

I'd rather they just kill off the Joker completely across all mediums and focus on more interesting villains.

Someone just point out video game voice acting/motion capture, back Verb into a corner his hubris will force him to defend, and watch him dig himself a hole
but mark hamill has never done these things either you fucking idiot, not for this iteration of the joker
do you ever get tired of saying retarded shit
go to 1:32 and see testimony from someone at rocksteady saying that he watched Hamill literally become the joker in the sound booth

Hammil's Joker is great but it would never translate into a live action film.
Have you ever seen him portray the Trickster live action? It's simply downright wonderful.
2097
« on: June 09, 2017, 12:11:47 AM »
you can only "be" the joker if you physically play the part
your voice isn't enough
No. Just no. Mark Hamill has portrayed the Joker more times than any other actor, and probably understands him on a level that no other living person does. I know you're a Ledger fanboy, but his version of the Joker, while absolutely praiseworthy, is an incredibly isolated portrayal that, simply put, doesn't fit who the Joker really is. It's the equivalent of a less extreme Superman: Red Son. A neat version of the character, but not the real character.

I think at this point, fan demand for Mark Hamill as the two characters that he simply is the one and only actor for has put him in a place where he's started doing, and is going to be forced to continue doing, a lot of shitty movies.
Nobody else has ever portrayed Luke Skywalker. Hell, I don't think anybody else has ever even voiced the iconic Jedi. There are at least two more films Luke will be alive in, and depending on whether or not the Han Solo anthology includes some of his adventures from after and in between the episodes of the OT as well, he may be in that film. It's no secret that Mark Hamill does not like the two films they've shot so far, and fans receive both of them with very mixed feelings.
You may like Nicholson, and you may like Ledger, but the simple truth is that even though they both portrayed the Joker well, Mark Hamill is the Joker. The Killing Joke was a morbid failure, unable to stay on target and falling completely flat. Fan demand for Hamill is very strong though, and he could end up doing a few more bad movies if fan demand stays so high.
A real dream come true would be to see him get even leaner than he has for Star Wars and portray an aged version of Jared Leto's Joker (love or hate him, I think Leto captured the character quite well, except for the fact that Joker doesn't give a fuuuck about Harley) in a future-set Dark Knight Returns adaptation for the DCCU.
ofc DC would ruin that too and then we'd get even more clips of Hamill complaining about everyone at the studio being an incompetent boob
