Re: Yoda in TFU2
The whole "Yoda is a master swordsman" thing has never sat right with me. Also, this game is going to have to do a very good job of convincing me that it isn't going to blow like the last one.
A scientist once gave a public lecture on astronomy. He described how the Earth orbits around the sun and how the sun, in turn, orbits around the centre of a vast collection of stars called our galaxy.
At the end of the lecture, a little old lady at the back of the room got up and said: 'What you have told us is rubbish. The world is really a flat plate supported on the back of a giant tortoise.
The scientist gave a superior smile before replying, 'What is the tortoise standing on?'
'You're very clever, young man, very clever,' said the old lady. 'But it's turtles all the way down.'

Re: Yoda in TFU2
I liked the first game. Finished it twice. This game doesn't need to do that much to convince me, since luckily it has dismemberment. The beheadings and arm loppings in the videos are all I needadam_grif wrote:The whole "Yoda is a master swordsman" thing has never sat right with me.

I really need to play the Hoth and Tatooine levels ...

Re: Yoda in TFU2
How can there even be a sequel? I know nothing about TFU2, but that rather lengthy synopsis you inflicted upon me Vympel years ago lead me to believe there isn't much room for a sequel.
Re: Yoda in TFU2
Well there wasn't much room for a game before they started. The story is the least interesting part about TFU anyway; they cleaned up the look a lot for TFU2 and if they ditched the fucking horrible platforming bullshit TFU2 looks set to be a better game.

I liked the first game, and now I have a 360. Sweet.

In any event, who the fuck cares. They could slap the Infinities label on it and I wouldn't give two shits, the fact is its Star Wars God of War With A Lightsabre That Fucking Works And Insane Force Powers.

Re: Yoda in TFU2
Meh, SW license hasn't been a big draw for me since I was 15ish, and the first never got close to the level of quality that GoW has. I approve of dismemberment (is it the lamo kind of dismemberment with the odd bit of limb flying off, or the sv_sabberrealisticcombat 1 style stuff where everything drops off at the slightest provocation?), but I'm not really sold on this being a way better game just because of that.

Re: Yoda in TFU2
This sort of complaint, in the form that 'TFU's doesn't fit with the rest of Star Wars', dogged the first game, and it was pretty daft. Who cares? Just do something interesting with the franchise - which, incidentally, I think TFU did for the first time in literally years. The gameplay is pretty clearly improved (and it wasn't exactly terrible first time round), and the story just has to be appropriately drammatic on its own.Stofsk wrote:How can there even be a sequel?

I'd rather them slap the Infinities label on BOTH games considering the sheer amount of wank in them.Vympel wrote:In any event, who the fuck cares.

Re: Yoda in TFU2
That's great, but has nothing to do with what I was talking about, since I never said anything of the sort, and the only person who would know exactly what I'm talking about is Vympel, considering I was replying to him.Ford Prefect wrote:This sort of complaint, in the form that 'TFU's doesn't fit with the rest of Star Wars', dogged the first game, and it was pretty daft.Stofsk wrote:How can there even be a sequel?

Vympel wrote me a letter a couple years ago explaining to me all about TFU and what occurs in the plot, especially the ending, wherein the guy dies (assuming light side ending; if dark side, he apparently kills everyone and becomes Vader Mk.2, but that can't be the canon ending because some of the people that die turn up later in the canon). So yeah, I'm kinda scratching my head wondering 'how can there be a sequel at all when the guy, you know, fucking dies at the end of the last one?'
I don't really care if TFU fits in with Star Wars canon anyway, and I'm puzzled why you replied to me thinking that I did.
Re: Yoda in TFU2
If you're wondering they can make a sequel about a guy who dies, you obviously don't know much about SW canon. 
Palpatine dies? Clone. Thrawn dies? Clone. Isard dies? Clone. Clone Luke. Clone Darth Maul. Clones, clones, and more clones.

Re: Yoda in TFU2
The first bugged me because it was sold as "Vader's Secret Apprentice!" and then...I was killing stormtroopers for a bunch of it.
Really? Like there aren't enough SW games where you kill stormies? I mean sure, you did get to go murder Rota's troops in that one level and stuff, so it was sorta different.
Still, it kinda bugged me about SW games. I mean, even in TIE Fighter, you spent a quite a bit fighting not one but two renegade Imperial admirals and their forces. How come I never took on rogue Alliance admirals in X-Wing, huh? Why can't they just let you be an Imperial and fight the Alliance and not other Imperials for something, y'know, different?
And yeah, I know, Palpatine's Empire = evil and all. But still. There's only so many times I can shoot down TIE fighters and mow through legions of stormtroopers before it gets old. Force powers and lightsabers (which are way too common anyway) or not.
And I'm not even going to touch on the 'canon' bit with the Marek family crest becoming the Rebel/New Republic logo. Jesus Christ.

Re: Yoda in TFU2
Watch the gameplay videos. It happens all the time. In one bit, he performs a sabre throw and it beheads three Stormtroopers at once.Meh, SW license hasn't been a big draw for me since I was 15ish, and the first never got close to the level of quality that GoW has.

And I've said it before, but sv_sabberrealisticcombat 1 was rubbish and looked retarded due to poor implementation.
This doesn't suffer from the "limbs moving as if they're clearly still attached to the torso" problem that dogged Jedi Knight 2 and Jedi Academy.
