Character Design

[Dr. Seuss]

i would like to see the kind of customisation you can get in wrestling games. maybe not so much freedom though but something along those lines.with more races

[LastManStanding]

I heard Bioware moved on so we might get a crapy action rpg with just 1 player sort of like Baldur's gate dark alliance 1 and 2 or somthing like that.

lets only hope that the new developer will stay faithful to the first game and improve upon the idea

i'd like to see a little longer game with higher character leveling. It'd be hard to balance so you dont end up with an uber jedi, but at level 20 there were still a few powers and feats that i wanted to add to my char. maybe an increasing difficulty based on your level would work. imagine taking on 3 dark jedi with a level 40 character. force wave and they're all dead. they'd definately need to balance out the game, but it'd change the pattern a bit...no more "master speed, leap attack, flurry, leap attack, flurry, leap attack...(5 minutes later)...grenade, leap attack, flurry..."

I agree being a hut would be unfair although perhaps slightly interesting. I also agree that including new races for your character to be would be cool, and i would like to be a Quarren and a Twi'Lek, however i don't like the idea of being ithorian, because they are cowardly and mostly useless. I would like to also be a Nogrhi, Selkath, Ehcani, Mandalorian, Kel Dor, or Zalbrak. These would be interesting races to be.

Hey, guys... What species are you? I know I'm human. I role play and want to be in the game. I make my character look as much as myself as possible and equip him with I'd most likely use. I'm still kinda sore about only having one ear, though... Did y'all notice that? What's that all about?! Oh, and another thing, Did you see the sodier type guy in the trailer/walkthrough? He looks a lot like an adult Dustil. A former dark side user that went light side and is a soldier sounds pretty cool. One last thing... I think it would be cool to lose a limb in the game like our other Jedi friends and get a sweet upgradeable droid replacement... What do you think?

Well - although I normally always play human in most any roleplaying game - there are many people that like to roleplay different races or genders as well.
So people wanting different races are quite expectable.
It is a roleplaying game after all, and not a reflection of ones real life.

[Theris]

Yeah, losing an arm or something would be pretty neat.

[UrchSr]

I apoligize for my prohuman rant, I think I talk too much. But really, A droid upgradeble arm would totally take care of the whole balanced two weapon penalty thingy. Plus the strengh alone would be sweet.

[vidis]

I want more variety on my character's face...Like blond long hair and blue eyes etc.... But more variety on the face and of course more races like a Zalbrak or a Twi'Lek.....I want a female Twi'Lek!!!

[UrchSr]

Blonde Hair?! Blue eyes?! I know where this is going... Aryan super race or busty porn star?

[dairy]

long blonde hair, blue eyes...hmm...maybe he's describing fabio, the forgotten action hero

i'd definately like to see an alien protagonist.

[Sith-Lord]

[quote=alpha_hazard]You know for an exalted member, that post made absolutely no sense...as you can see, this is my first post. Therefore I'd like a little more clarification...What is SWG? Some White Guy, Sew With Guts? Something With Glue?

SWG means star wars galaxies isnt that obvious?

Actually, no.

I'm new and had no idea what it meant until someone said.

I'm not sure if you were trying to be insulting to people who haven't been around for that long, or if you just weren't thinking, but not everyone knows what all of the abbreviations mean, and implying that they are stupid for not knowing is a little unfair. If it was unintentional, sorry about the mini rant.

The whole basis for KotOR not letting you be an alien character is because you were formerly Sith, and the Sith have that whole anti-alien bias going for them (what with the all-human crews on ships and troops, and Xor mentioned it himself). So having the former leader of the Sith Empire be human was pretty much mandatory.

No Noghri. The Noghri weren't even really discovered until the Clone Wars (if you read the books), and if you can have a Noghri character, that would just be wrong. Selkath... well, I'll just be glad I don't have to hear me speak. I have no clue what a Kel Dor is (unless that's that weird looking one in Jedi Academy). I liked my female Twi'lek in Jedi Academy. She looked hot. In that game at least you could customize her legs, torso, head, skin color, clothes.

[Admo]

Yes, those weird looking aliens in JA were Kel Dor's. Plo Koon, one of the latest members of the old Jedi Council was a Kel Dor.

Mandalorians.... essentially very strong humans? If the character creation system is anything like as extensive as most people hope, you could just choose a big guy and pretend!

I would like to see a selection of races, but not too far. Only very human-like races, such as the Kel Dor, Cathar, Twi'lek, Zabrak, etc. But asking for Hutt's and things is a bit.... extreme.

The only thing I really definitely thing should go in there (appearance-wise) is more facial stuff (various hair-styles, beards, etc etc) and a better-looking selection of Jedi robes. The ones in the trailers look quite cool, better than the red, blue and brown things you were forced to wear in the first game!
