Jade Empire

Post by Vendetta »

Jade Empire is fucking wicked. You will go and purchase it.

This is the game that KOTOR should have been, if it wasn't weighed down by the SWD20 system.

This is Bioware on the best of form.

Now go! I have asses to kick.

Indeed, I love this game.. and my Enlightened Lesbian Kung-Fu Fighter :D

Love the fighting styles, love the Open Palm/Closed Fist system (like lightside/darkside in KOTOR but Closed Fist seems much more approriate for the random assholery that gets you points in it), love the world its set in.

The game rocks to an incredible degree. Nothing like laying a massive beatdown on someone by continually flowing between Paralyzing Palm and Legendary Strike styles, or nailing someone with Heavenly Wave and then making them explode with legendary strike.

Oh and the utter Ass-Whupping Incarnate that is Jade Golem style.

I've been more fond of Leaping Tiger style so far. There's nothing like hurling yourself through the air and coming down claws first to
smash through the enemy's defence (plus it's a perk of the limited edition pack). And make the 'splode, of course.

Eh? Leaping tiger's in the regular game. It's the Monk Spade style that's in the LE.
