KOTOR = Boring, MassEffect= ?

I know that many many people are big fans of KOTOR, and claim that it is their favorite starwars game(s)..

Am i the only one that was bored to hell with this game? My friends went ape **** for it when it released. I even bought the game to try to get into it. But this game was just so boring, it wasn't bareable.

Mass Effect seems to be set up the same as KOTOR in gameplay. I really hope the try to appeal to gamers like me, that want a little more than glorified turn-based combat.

PS.......I am a Lemming so this isn't some fanboy rant....

I hope they don't try to make the game appeal to people lik you, the original KOTOR was amazing and you're in the minority that disagrees.

Yeah, KOTOR was verying boring unless you are in a certain state of mind, if you get my drift. :wink:ironwarrior2

im not saying that they should revamp the entire system, Just saying i want them to Improve... make it more exciting. It will have to because it doesn't have the name "Star Wars" to fall back on.Utensilman

If you thought KOTOR was boring, I don't see how you would like other RPGs.Mass_Effect

No. It is possible to dislike Kotor and be a huge RPG fan.Raidea

I don't see how it's even remotely possible..unless you're a JRPG-only fan.

The universe honestly had little bearing on my enjoyment of the game. At the time I picked it up, I literally knew nothing about the Star Wars universe other than what's common knowledge in pop-culture..but I still absolutely loved every minuite of the game.

Edit: Damn, I keep getting "Forbidden" errors in my posts. Anyone know why?Velocitas8

Thank you.  Finally, someone else who agrees with me.  I've been saying this ever since the first KOTOR came out.  Yes, it had wookies, tuskens, and lightsabers, but it never really felt like a true Star Wars game.  No tie-in to the two trilogies, so I never felt as drawn-in as I probably should have.  Why not make it 100 years before Phantom Menace so at least you can feel like it has more to do with the Prequel Trilogy?

KOTOR = AAA

Sorry if you can't appreciate a superb game.

I loved KOTOR but the worst part was the end when you realise that every lightside/ darkside choice you had made during the game was utterly pointless as one question actually decided the ending.cakeorrdeath

it affects how much your force powers cost. :)

I'm not sure how you feel the gameplay is going to be the same/

KOTOR used automated combat via a "dice-rolling" system... Mass Effect's gameplay will use tactical combat, it's a straight action-RPG. 

KOTOR's conversations were on a usual "tree" system...

Mass Effect's conversations use the right analog stick to indicate the desired "gist" of the response

I don't understand how you've managed to miss the two demonstrations that have been released. Please look up the game before bashing it with your uninformed opinion.

And really, if combat is the main thing you care about in RPG's I doubt the genre is for you. Cause there is a lot more to KOTOR than just glorified turn-based combat.

It means if you are not turned on by the game, it's not for you. Obviously ironwarrior gets turned on by KOTOR.
