MEMEyou Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Did anyone else get duped into rolling a Twi'lek because the character creator made them think they had a social ability? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadysketchy Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 No, I had no intention of rolling a Twi'lek, at any point, because they are hideous, and there's only like two in the Movies; who do nothing important anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayntree Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 I like the idea that the Twi'lek would get a cultural dance since dancing is such a huge part of their culture. Makes sense to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A huge part of what culture? There are only about two of these, our of all six movies (I've seen them all, start to finish), and they don't seem to have any culture; just one who's a cannon fodder Jedi for Clone Troopers to kill, and another who helps out Jabba the Hutt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This game is considered canon and this game's lore states that it is a large part of their culture. Not to mention the EU content that mentions it as well. There is quite a lot of canon that state that dancing is a large part of their culture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HelluvaJedi Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Social abilities are useless anyway, who cares? I rolled a Twi'lek because I wanted my smuggler to be a Twi'lek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George Lucas himself has said that the extended universe is nonsense, and that Star Wars is about the Rise and Fall of Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader This game is based on Star Wars, so I'm going to keep that in mind; not look to what some fanfiction written by a teenager said about a random race Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eliniell Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 How can you play SW:TOR if you've never played KOTOR? Madness I say, sheer madness. This is actually my first Star Wars / Bioware game overall personally. I purchased it simply because it looked like a promising MMO title (and it hasn't failed on that yet for me, I'm loving it so far). Now that I've played this, I plan on going out and buying KOTOR 1 and 2 just to see the back stories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lokai Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Ok... well I wan't calling for you to respond - but thanks for your randomly inappropriate response. it actually has 2 additional dances issue being that i think a majority of us assumed that dance would end up being something we saw from movies, a sensual sexy dance and really not... also first dance is pretty much basic dance with a few tweaks so yes i agree a bit disappointing! give me pole dances darn it >,< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaegaknight Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Why would you pick a race to play just for their social ability which doesn't really do anything anyway? O.o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By your own logic you shouldn't even be playing this game because George Lucas thinks the EU is nonsense. You're welcome to leave at any time.

MEMEyou Posted December 26, 2011 Author Share Posted December 26, 2011 (edited) How can you play SW:TOR if you've never played KOTOR? Madness I say, sheer madness. We aren't all puritans. But seriously. The way the character creator is set up only twi'lek should be able to do the /clubdance and no one else. Or there is no distinct social ability. The current twi'lek dance is just /dance. Which i HATE - on every class - it's like some 1990s hipster dancing to SKA. People don't listen to ska last I checked. Totally not what I'd associate with. It's not classy or timeless. Edited December 26, 2011 by MEMEyou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leland Chan (keeper of the lore for Lucus) states that most all of it is Canon. To think otherwise is "nonsense". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEMEyou Posted December 26, 2011 Author Share Posted December 26, 2011 Why would you pick a race to play just for their social ability which doesn't really do anything anyway? O.o Because it's noted on the character creator. This is a huge portion of what is made evident to the player at character creation. And it's a huge portion of SOCIAL PLAY.

FormicSaipen Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 >lesson learned< Now you'll choose a race for what they look like instead of the dumb *** ability. This is a ROLE playing game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VeganHipster Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 You are mad cause of a dance move your Twi'lek does? Thats what you are mad about? Not about glitched animations or delayed skills or even bugged datacron locations, but you are mad about a dance move you will probably use about 5 times while you are playing the game?

And it's a huge portion of SOCIAL PLAY. Social abilities are a huge part of social play? So slapping your companion or making everyone around you cheer is a huge part of social play? It's a nifty little ability, that's about all the social abilities amount to. A little bit of flair. You're putting too much emphasis on a crappy little ability.
