Thoughts on KOTFE because hey I’m finally playing it now:
-Idk what ancient sea witch hell being Darin De Paul made a Faustian pact with to have the perfect voice, but I’d like to personally thank it because any time that dude is handed a villain role he absolutely kills it. 10/10. He’s so good as Valkorion
-Speaking of, Valkorion’s whole design is just 👩🏻🍳💋👌 The whole Zakuul royal family is really fun to look at individually, but also altogether because the family resemblance is there without being too pushy about it idunno how to word, I just think they’re neat
-I’m playing on my Smuggler btw
-You’d think this whole concept wouldn’t fit, and yeah there are a few narrative times where I’m like, oh, yep, they definitely had the Jedi Knight in mind for this bit, but? Big but? Smuggler actually works out pretty good. And what can I say, I find the concept of two generations of angry royal force sensitives playing tug-of-war with what is basically just some guy with a ship to be very funny and therefore very entertaining
-Understandably, my Smuggler talks to Valkorion’s ghost less like an ancient entity trying to take over his body and more like someone trying to cheat at sabacc. “Valkorion is amused” pops up way more then expected. The planet devouring Sith ghost has a sense of humor
-Really love how SWTOR spread its romance wings with this one and went full Dragon Age 2 with it. Everyone’s fair game. (Flirt) option is my Smug’s ultimate weapon, frankly
-Had my first genuine impasse when I had to decide between Koth, Theron, and Lana as romance options (an impasse of my own decision and making, but still). Was doing quantum physics, bending the laws of time and space, ripping open my third eye while I went hrm, but would this fit my smug’s MO?
-Finally decided on Lana. 1) because it’s Lana, and 2) this Smuggler having a weak spot for women that can crack his spine like a disposable glowstick confirmed
-I’m really excited about this bc I had to go through all the character class story arcs first (just for personal completionist sake) and if I had to accidentally hurtle off one more Balmorran cliff face because those elevators take too long I was gonna uninstall the game.
-Gripping the game by the lapels and shaking it vigorously begging it to let my character wear Koth’s outfit, PLEASE
-They went hard designing Zakuul, from its assets to its lore, and idk how I’ll ever be able to go back to vanilla planets after this. Zakuul stronghold when
