There are two single player Star Wars RPG's Knights of the Old Republic and its sequel Knights of the Old Republic: The Sith Lords. The MMO Star Wars game is called The Old Rebuplic and is set in the furure of the earlier RPG's. Sadly the MMo can indeed not be modded and so I can only play GxB or BxG.

Oh, Knights of The Old Republic, that's an entirely different matter all together .

Yeah, mods for samesex in games are fun, I actually bothered to use the Gibbed Save Editor to romance Miranda and Tali as FemShep in ME2&3, that took a long time <note, if you try it, DO NOT ever forget to change your headmorph when you swap genders, that's some frightening shit right there > .

Made progress with the map, the day version is now working:

now need to code the night version which is more difficult since has some nice lighting effects...

Night time version done as well

Now I should start coding the battles... ugh

6 months later...



Random poster: "Hey, I really liked the game, but I noticed there wasn't a lot of combat. I think I encountered maybe one battle."

Jack: "Yeah, I got bored of them."



Maps look pretty neat. If you really don't want to code battles, on the day map there's a little bit of weird coloring on the circus door and the door to the house on the bottom-right (where it looks like the road overlaps the door).

Haha the circus door is the three sisters shop

Yes is because I currently draw the various buildings/hot spots semi-transparent over the background and full opacity on mouse hover, but I think will use another system



About the battles was joking, will do them. But need to see first how things go with the other projects (I still need a lot of art for this one, in particular combat and "robbing phase").

Looks pretty .

Can't wait to meet the characters in full. I really like the new redesign. If nothing else it has more character..



As far as the Sexy vs Non sexy women in games, as a lesbian myself I feel like there sometimes is a pull in two different directions. The old LGBT adage: DO I want them or Do I want to be them, always applies for the best characters. Sexy shouldnt be a problem unless it is their whole character or they are only there to tantalize, or reiterated constantly. Variety is always good. Dynamic personalities are best of all. When their dialogue mentions a lot how sexy they are (or incredibly highlights their sex appeal), there are very few women in the game or all the women in it are portrayed sexy and similiar body types, and if their personalities seem to be an after thought to be a different kind of stereotype, then I usually roll my eyes.



I like sexy women, I also think non sexy women can be sexy. There are games that treat women like sex objects, and ton of movies. I certainly don't think Loren did it, because Loren was pig headed and often wrong even when she was brave or compassionate. Karen was messed up. The demon from Spirited was Arrogant, and the poet from the same was flaky as anything. Chambara was a bit cold hearted and manipulative, and I can't even start on those from Heileen. The point is as long as they aren't all the same and the sexyness is tacked on to a character rather than the other way around, I don't see the problem with it.

Yep indeed, I agree fully on what you said

Very pleased that the artist met the first deadline (we agreed to a series of deadlines to make sure the art for this game goes on!). This is just one of the many combinations, there are 5 outfit variants for each body part (head, chest,legs, weapons, etc). Thumbs up!

Beautiful! I love how she was done, and brings her own style to the fight. Of course now I have to play dress up in the game, because nothing can be so fun in an rpg as playing with different armors!

the combinations are a lot, 5 different types x 5 different slots. There are "sets" but you can also mix them like I did in this case, the shoes and leg part aren't of the same heavy armor set

I can't recall the last time I've seen a design for a woman in heavy armour that didn't have the infamous boob plate. So huge congratulations to your artist for this lovely piece!

Some female players have nothing against boob plate though (like me) It doesn't prevent me to see that the art is great, but it allows to see that not all female players dislike sexualized armors



(Also Sylrissa, I'm pretty sure there are games nowadays that don't have boob plates, like Dragon Age. I agree it's nice when there are choices for all tastes !)

Personally I'm neutral towards that, I mean I don't think is a big deal so I leave freedom to the artist to decide for him/herself. In the past did too much censoring and I think some artist were annoyed by that. Freedom to the arts! (of course within acceptable limits)

Censoring seems never good, as it alters an original idea, no matter what is censored, to me. (Even if they censor something I don't like in a game or such, I feel the same.)

I'm not saying I hate the sexualized armours, I appreciate good art regardless, Loren had several complaints about the state of the armour, yet that is my favourite game from WW to date!, and I never had a problem with any of the designs. (also I really enjoy playing Dragon's crown on my vita, Vanilla-ware make beautiful art.) I just wanted to say something nice about seeing the design and about the artist.

I think that is a good stance, I've previously commended your stance against censoring now, and it's good to see what the artist's interpretation of the character/monster/weapon/environment etc

(Dragon's Crown is gorgeous indeed ! I play it with my husband on PS3 )

And I agree that seeing different interpretations of characters and places of the world of Aravorn is really interesting. It's nice that so much games are planned to set in this world, and so far choices of artists seem very good to me Makes me think of japanese animated series where different seasons may have different artists, but that manage to keep solid the atmosphere of the setting.

For me, I really like that the character art suits the character. I mean Loren was just sorta out there in regards to armor, but like Myrth made tons of sense it suited her, but Lorens armor said absolutely nothing about her character than boobs, which I don't mind At All when the characters good, but always been a fan of the art suiting the character. Like how Draco and Apolishimo wore robes even in the sexy version because well, trained wizards wear robes (and god, sexy Apolishimo would kill me) I often feel sexy armor out of context is more a detraction of the character, since they don't look like themselves. Boob plates are fine, and not all of them are sexy, like the picture before actually seem to capture the idea perfectly.

Why does robe suit mages??? except for the mage's stereotype there is no reason

I don't think it is the easiest clothe to travel with and let's not talk about dungeons,swamp,...

More clothing options is ALWAYS a good thing.
