Knights of the Old FARTZ

[Kim]

I'm thinking of playing KOTOR again, because I never beat it the first time.

What mods should I get? I don't want story mods. Only mods that fix bugs, improve graphics, improve performance, or tweak the gameplay in ways that are Good.

HAVE AT YOU

[Aerozord]

just to be clear, we talking about the original, sequel, or a run of both?

[rpgdemon]

Just, as a public service announcement: If you read this title in a thick British accent, it gets much funnier.

[Kim]

Original. I know there's a mod out there that's supposed to make KOTOR 2 complete.

[Geminex]

There's actually several, which are themselves in varying states of completeness.

But the original, as I remember it, was actually well-designed and not really that buggy at all. I never really bothered modding it.

[Professor Smarmiarty]

I don't like fartz

[CABAL49]

Smarty you're fartz.

Also, I never really modded KOTOR that much except for a few sidequests to add in. I guess the graphics have aged a bit haven't they.

Do you want me to read it out a few times on Skype?

[Solid Snake]

I'd recommend a Dark Side KOTOR playthrough and a Light Side KOTOR2 playthrough.
Beyond that, just be aware that Taris in the original KOTOR drags on and on for millennia. I tried replaying KOTOR about eight months ago and couldn't make it beyond the Taris underworld.

[POS Industries]

And we all know how much Kim loves Taris.

[Kim]

At least I can take some comfort in knowing what eventually happens to Taris.

[Solid Snake]

If I remember correctly Dantooine was my favorite location in the original KOTOR, actually. Loved the music and the atmosphere there. So, at least you get that as a reward after suffering through Taris. (Unfortunately, Dantooine is far shorter.)

[Kim]

If Dantooine is the place I'm thinking of, I loved playing through that part because I got to have the Montagues and the Capulets murder each other while I laughed and laughed and laughed.

Yup! That was a fun sidequest.

[Kim]

What I'm gathering from this is that nobody knows any worthwhile KOTOR mods. Damn.

[Professor Smarmiarty]

I recommend the mod where you play OgreBattle instead.

[Kim]

One time I tried playing Ogre Battle and woke up naked and afraid in Wisconsin.

Never again.

[Professor Smarmiarty]

They released a patch for that. It doesn't totally fix the problem but you end up in Vegas instead so its workable.

[Kim]

Oh man, I should have taken your advice, Smarty.

KOTOR is terrible.

I like TOR more than I like KOTOR.

[Mr.Bookworm]

Here is a mod that lets you skip Taris. (http://knightsoftheoldrepublic.filefront.com/file/Super_Skip_Taris;71749)

Y'know, if you're interested in that.

[Solid Snake]

Oh man, I should have taken your advice, Smarty.

KOTOR is terrible.

I like TOR more than I like KOTOR.

Just skip it and go to a modded version of KOTOR2.
KOTOR2 is more your style.

It IS pretty dated. I had fun with it, though.
