The Act Man's "Why was Star Wars: KOTOR I So AWESOME?!?"

Recommended Posts

That was a good review!

 

I think he could have bothered to mention the mods that he used and acknowledged that mods existed to improve the graphic quality. Even the description doesn't give any credit to the modder's who made the mods seen in the video.

 

At 39 minutes, he incorrectly state that Revan reveal scene was on Korriban, when it was clearly on Lehon (Unknown World) due to the Rakata Statues seen behind Revan. 

 

Other than those two points, his video was well put together.

Maybe... But actually the mods he used came from nexusmods.com particularly this new guy FENS, who did the Carth, Juhani, Canderous, and Mission, re-skins shown. I think it is only proper to give credit to Fens.

I'm fairly certain he used K1R too, since he was able to Juhani's quest to work, and, correct me if I'm wrong, but I think he used a deadlystream mod that turned Xor into a human, which is a mod by Leilukin.

Yeah and tbh, he could've done better.

That's true, and it's an unfortunate truth that perfection doesn't exist, otherwise KOTOR II might have been finished long ago. But regardless, Act Man still did good.

The first few minutes were down right hilarious! I agree with his final judgement of K1.

 

But, he could have looked a bit more into the combat system, I think as a game review he should have taken the time to understand the rolling(dice) mechanics for different damage/attack/attributes benefits and cons. The feats and force powers could have used a better highlight, regardless of his personal judgement on it.

 

Don't get me wrong, I don't feel the need to nitpick or criticize him or even have the desire to do so. I'm merely mentioning my opinion, in an offhand way, so please don't take this as an argumentative post, though I would welcome your rebuttal if you have any. 

 

To reiterate, I did enjoy his video.

Don't worry, I understand.

That part in the beginning- "I hope we don't get blasted to smithereens while you're learning to use the A button" was so great! He even had the little head nods and looking around that the player's character had during dialogue.

 

And seriously, Xor was a Twi'Lek in the PC version? The xbox version of Xor was always that generic black haired male. That's so weird.

To be fair to him, he did state early on in his vid that he was using footage from two playthroughs, a modded and un-modded one. So he didn't record any of it himself (I assume).

 

With that said, he should've linked to the footage he used in the video description, though.
