While Jedi Taco Salesman sound wonderful, Kung-Fu Jesus is the way to go. Knowing that I can hand to hand combat my way through the game makes me want to go do it on my own. Is is even remotely possible to kung-fu your way in KOTOR 1?

Not unless you are mostly using force powers and only sometimes kicking people in the face. The only reason unarmed combat is viable in KotOR 2 is the unarmed mastery perks.

Alright, there's an image of all the male faces up now. If you want to select one you like, then just say the number of the face.

I'm voting for 9 because I think it would be funny, but 13's probably going to win it. That hair and beard combo is the best of all the default models.

Alright Woodaba, since we're going with male this time, and we all remember the magnificient bastard that was Jolee Bindo, go with either face 9 or face 10, or face 4/5 from the black males. Lets call it Revenge of the Bindo.

Just a thought there. It also made the "Pulling a Bindo" Joke later on alot more humorous in my head.

I vote #9 as well - second row, second from the right with the sweet sweet moustache :)

Alright, we're tied: Three for Beard-Face and Three for Captain Mustache. Who shall prevail? If there's no more votes in 24 hours, I'll toss a coin. At either the vote that pips ahead or after the coin toss, I'll create the character, and capture the first footage.

EDIT: Edited to make myself clearer.

I think I remember #9 showing up as a merc commander (maybe on Taris). I could be wrong. #5 shows up everywhere. Some of those faces look Sith-ified already. I like #10. We'd still get a sweet beard face without being Jedi Jesus #2. That's Captain Riiken's face, but I think it actually changes his to another face model if you pick that one.

So I'm for 10

I'm going to cast my vote for #10. As A-D mentioned, he does look like a young Jolee, and I feel that he needs some love after what we did to him in the other playthrough.

Alright, that's it then! Our character is set in stone, and as soon as I finish my session of Dishonored, I'm gonna create our character and get started!

Dishonored is really freaking good.

In terms of character build, since this is KotOR II, I suggest maxing dexterity, as once you take the Weapon Finesse feat, it adds to both your defense and offense, and actually makes swapping to pistols a viable option if you want a change of pace (seriously, dual pistols+master speed+force stat boosts can get crazy when you're tired of sabers). You'll never get hit. As for the class, well, Sentinel gives you the skill points you need to unlock all the fun conversations, Consular makes you invincible on account of the force needed to cast Force Wave recharging faster than you can cast it, and Guardian is fun because you get to launch yourself at someone from 100 feet away and cut them in two.

And these guys are right - at early levels, kung-fu Jedi is surprisingly viable, although the attack animations can get a little stale

Sentinel, big question are you playing as female?
No, male, partly because we played a female in the last LP, and partly because I think the story is better as a male, though not for any sexist reasons, just because some of the characters are better for the male PC.
The Handmaiden is way cooler than the Disiple.

On the other hand, you miss out on some dialogue with Scion...
And the dialogue with Atris (a sorely underrated character, in my opinion) is much more interesting with a male...
Valid, but you don't get to flirt with Atton!

The other problem with playing female is Disciple's combat dialog... which being a screenshot LP we don't have to listen to, but I'd feel really bad inflicting it on woodaba all the same

*first time*

"You have left me an opening!!!"
*sniggers - heh heh heh, he said...*

*forty millionth time*

"You have left me an..."
"OH SHUT UP ALREADY!!!!"

:p

Never in all my female exile play-throughs (and we're talking 30+ play-throughs) have I used the disciple in my team.... he's just too bloody annoying!

Please don't pick the bearded white jedi, or at least lets NOT name him Kung-Fu Moses.

Reminds me too much of Jedi Jesus from the Something Awful LP of this game (without the TSLRCM) where the LPer spends the whole LP bitching about the cut content.

Let's at least try to be original peeps. lol.

A valid concern but let me offer what I believe is an equally valid response: There are no other good looking male faces. Seriously the rest look like shit.
