I tend to only watch my class story cut-scenes, but when I do, I am never disappointed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mackuss Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 (edited) The only thing I thought was a bad call - not bad writing because I think I understand their concept for doing it - was making Kaliyo a companion instead of being able to fight her and kill her. They gave her so much plot armor by allowing her to be your companion and was probably the worst call they could have made. Maybe I don't understand the Empire very well, but generally speaking as an Intelligence organization of any faction, you don't let someone into your ranks who is a known defector and liar. Practically everything about her is anti Imperial Agent - she hates authority and she hates following orders. And only when you choose to say the dumbest things - things that would probably get you suspended and investigated in Intelligence agencies - she likes a lot. So that proves it further. Like I said, not bad writing because I understand they wanted something eccentric to happen I think? But just a bad call that leaves me constantly thinking "why the **** is she with me. I want to interrogate her and kill her". P.S. And someone in guild said "She fits with me just fine. I don't follow the rules". I really don't understand why they allow you to play like that. It's honestly stupid. We're not mercenaries, or smugglers for hire - or anything like that. We're supposed to be trained by the Empire for the purpose of following orders to do even the darkest of requests. Not act like a tough guy and "not follow the rules". Just stupid calls in that department. Edited December 18, 2011 by Mackuss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bhemont Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 My only complaint is that we get our companion character that comes after Kaliyo later then any other class. It's annoying and unfair, because it gimps us in crew skills compared with the other classes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are good agent - you are good agent and priceless to your chief. Thats it. Nobody cares how you speak or attitude til' you don't mess things up.

TheBiGGs Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Breaking aside from a little bit of nit-picking, I do agree that the Agent storyline is quite good. Awesome. I'm level 21, and I'm really enjoying it. Looking forward to see what happens in ACT 2! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenJyC Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Ending of Act 1, beginning of Act. Going to Quesh now. Story is insane!! (Literally) ;P I want to Only do the class story but then I'll get too underleveled for the areas. :/ P.S... To the guy thats lvl 14. You haven't done anything yet, it picks up, like all good stories do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamchuck Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 I want to kiss you , it is the best story hands down and if you don't believe me play it. I freaking love -- LOVE -- my agent. I'm playing the male agent and he totally gives me the feel of being James Bond. The story is great and I get so sad/upset when I'm tired and can't play him anymore. Server downtime drives me nuts. I've never enjoyed a character this much, ever. I wonder if the feel is different with the female agent? I totally have a crush on mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are some parts where the NPC kind of patronize the female IA (barefoot and prego in kitchen), but she soon b*tchslaps them out of that kind of thinking....now if i could only get Kaliyo to kiss her...hmm.

Swoz Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 I skipped playing agent in beta because story is important to me and I knew I wanted to play the class. The story has depth, intrigue, good characters and most of all, it is substantive. <3 Bioware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JagoK Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 My only beef with the very early Agent story (I'm currently level 6) is the way she only talks without her Imperial Accent in the class quest cut scenes. Hey, you're supposed to be undercover, stop talking in two accents! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Intelligence services including the CIA have been caught working with criminals including assassination plots of heads of state (CASTRO CUBA, CIA). So that aspect isn't unrealistic at all. The level of information she's allowed perhaps but then that would be classified. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaliyo's in your group for the sake of plausible deniability; if you act against the Republic, the Empire can just say "this radical terrorist did it".

RadRaymond Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 I want to kiss you , it is the best story hands down and if you don't believe me play it. I agree, just finished Chap. 3 yesterday and was sorry it ended. I really worked hard to finish my agent, no help, empty server but it made it worth it. Imperial Agent's story line is classic and I really love kaliyo's attitude.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yare Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 (edited) I didn't love it as much as most people seem to. You spend the entire story getting kicked around by everyone you meet and there just wasn't enough of an emotional payoff for that to have been worthwhile. After what they do to you in chapter 2 I was even more angry at intelligence than I was at hunter or kothe, but I was given no opportunity to exact retribution. Chapter 3 felt a little flat for me because of all the situations they forced me into when my inclination would have been to tell them to go screw themselves, or to simply play along while working toward my own ends. I have now finished five of the class stories (knight, smuggler, consular, inquisitor, agent). To me, the Agent story evokes slightly more emotion than the others, but it's not an emotion I prefer to wallow in for four days /played without something more at the end to make it all worthwhile. All of the class stories are good of course, but I think this one will end up smack in the middle if I ever rank them.
