Neutral. U can do bad things ( to become more powerful , or just for fun ) and u can do a lot of good things. Depend on your emotions and the moment.

I think to choose if u wana be Ds or Ls or Neutral in the begining , whoever u r u fly to either the sith academy or Jedi Academy and join either ,and to be neutral u dont go to either somtin like that would be kool.

Well, both of them sound challenging, so I would play one time by every side. Light because I want Light Side to triumph and Dark because in no game before you could start as a Sith, be trained as a Sith or fight alongside Sith. We don't really know anything about the Sith first-hand.

You said it Mandalorianx! I would definately start LS and perhaps later do DS.

In order to more fully experience the game, IMO, the three paths should be available: Light Side, Dark Side, and Neutral. As far as what suits my own personal inclinations, I would say the Light Side without question. However, traveling the Dark Side path is one way to experience a different game, and for that I think it's worth doing. I think a possible KOTOR III should offer more in the way of unique experiences for LS, DS, and Neutral Jedis.

But for the person above me that hasnt played KOTOR 2 on the dark side yet the ending cinematic won't be any better, they both sucked. The first KOTOR's cinematics were so much better.

I Know that would be the coolest scence I am never dark side or light side just in the middle the hole game

I've been an LS follower for a while but the more I think about it, no side is right. The Jedi are fools who restrict their students. The Sith are fools who do nothing but kill mindlessly. The Gray Jedi know how to use the DS. What if there was a medical patient whos heart stopped and you had the chance to save him using an electrical shock? Think of all the times the Jedi code stopped Jedi from killing people who would go on to destroy planets and make slaves of innocent people. I think the game should definately have a choice to be neither and stand alone for a while, then end up meeting people slowly who join your party or something like that.

I think the way both are used in the games is silly. There are times when I intend to be nice, and I give a "tough love" answer, and get DS points. There are other times when I intend to lie or cheat people, say friendly things to keep them from realizing what I'm up to, and I get LS points. In general, the LS choices are a lot more rational. The DS choices are most often ridiculous.

As for the powers, I think they are roughly about equal, but the DS attacks are more fun. If you're a consular, it doesn't matter. You can use them both, anyway ... you rarely run out of FP after 12th level or so, anyway.

The other thread is closed so i will post here i think the dark side is the one and only way to go.
I dont actually pick i side i like to answer everything as i would if i reley had those powers and just see where it takes me

I dont think I would like that picking your side before you can even start the game. I like choosing my side during the game.

DarthZ · #27 (**permalink**) 11-25-2006, 02:01 AM

I wouldnt like to choose in the start either. The KotOR games are supposed to make you dwindle (dunno how to write it) between LS and DS; sure you can if you start DS or LS but it wouldn't be the same. If I chose DS in the start I would probally play that way through whole game which would probally make it more boring.

I like the idea, although it could probably be better implemented as a "hidden" choice at the end of the prologue (kinda like the male/female/LS/DS Revan in KotOR II), and build two or three distinct plots from there to increase the game's replay value.

FighterTundra · #29 (**permalink**) 12-05-2006, 07:22 AM

I would pick both. usually i first do light side completion, then darkside completion, and then i do what i would do in real life :P, usually neutral.

I agree with you. Being able to choose your path (LS or DS) at the start will take away the open-ended factor of the game. It reminds me of quite a number of strategy games that gives you the option to choose your side/faction. I would much prefer if you do good deeds to earn your way to LS and the opposite for DS, just like how most open-ended RPGs are designed in the first place.
