Isn't that the point of role-playing? Aren't you supposed to be free to explore unfamiliar personality types?
For the life of me I can not play a bad guy in an RPG. I mean come on, this is a game a role playing game. I just can't be a jerk. Or a female for that matter. Hmmmph.
Also, I've used my speedpad N52te for as long as I can remember, haven't touched a keyboard in a game since the mid 2000's? I have worn all the black off the keys and may wear clean through the W soon.
I have the keys at the standard wasd layout with ctrl shift and tab on the left. The dpad is assigned numbers one to 8. The button above the dpad shifts all the keys to ESc then F1-F12, the wheel is up arrow and down arrow, my mouse wheel side to side rocker is left and right arrow. Been able to play every game in every genre easily with this set up for 7-8 years.
No, you have to be online. But you can just, you know, ignore everyone else and do your thing.
One thing to consider, though, is that during a playthrough, you have a specific set of missions that require teams to complete. I think it's ~10-12 series of story-based missions. These are more or less separate from the main story, and you can completely ignore them if you want.
However, these are actually directly related to the KoToR storyline, so if that whole Bioware Star Wars world interests you, then you probably want to play through those. I think the last one of those is also the final mission of the main story...so you at least have to group for that. You get KotoR history and lore and stuff like that on the main game, doing sidequests and whatever, but to get continuation of that story (it is mostly a running sidestory to the ToR story), you would need to do those.
Thanks, maybe I'll check it out.
I have played through KoToR 1/2 a couple of times each.

Yeah, give it a shot. I've played dudes here and there, but I naturaly lean towards creating a female character.
One thing I've always wanted to do is play a complete jerk of a character, but no matter how hard I try I always end up making nice guy choices. One day I am going to try and force a play-through making only the jerk/bad guy choices.

KOTOR 2 is a great game for playing dark side.
Corrected!!!!... "KOTOR2 is great with Restoration Pack " http://www.moddb.com/mods/the-sith-lords-restored-content-mod-tslrcm
Only way to play that game .
what does that do? I never actually played KoTOR 2. I was between things/too busy to play games in that time period, so missed a lot of stuff.
I keep thinking I would try it out at some point, but I always hear bad things.
You might not have known this, but Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords had content taken out of the game prior to launch. A group of modders decided to restore the content, this process began in 2009. Now, three years later, the finished project, The Sith Lords Restored Content Mod, is complete!
"content."
so missions, skills, characters, all sorts of stuff like that? I may look into it if I ever get around to purchasing/playing that. There is steam sale coming up--so it should be available for ~2 bucks or so....
FYI, the game is on sale for $40 at Walmart for those who haven't picked it up yet. I don't think I have finished the first dragon age and I haven't touched its sequel. Am I missing much of the story or is it okay to indulge into Inquisition right away?
There is already Leliana appearing in the first cut scenes. I remember her as being a goofy or shy character in the DAO. And I am pretty sure she used to have a French accent. And now she looks quite ruthless with an English accent.

there are recurring characters from the previous 2 dragon age games--I guess it depends on your value that you want to place in those characters, whether you would find their appearance surprising. A lot of the lore is about the events in the previous games, but you can basically look at that as history. It had been so long since I played the first 1 that I might as well have not played it.
I skipped the 2nd DA, and there is a significant amount of story from that, but I honestly didn't feel as though I was missing too much.
I played them both, but honestly dont remember much of DA2. I just replayed DA1, so that lore is fresh in my mind. In any case, the previous games seem pretty incidental to the new game, at least so far.
And I agree with another poster about Lilleana. She is much different in this game than DAO. TBH, I liked her better previously. She just seems like a b**** in this game.
