Hey buddy. Been complicate but I'm here. Check in periodically

Yeah that was probably the point when Hovoth reached out to me as well. Guess I missed the rush. Oh well.

I've been doing good. Geez I think it's been like 9 years or more since I checked in here. Good to see the sites still somewhat alive. I see Jester still pops in, that's cool. How goes the Darkside my man? Haha. It's kinda funny, I just convinced a friend of mine to play KOTOR a few months ago; he was a bioware fan but had never played KOTOR before. He called me freaking out when the big reveal came. Still go back and play it myself periodically, so many good memories.

Doesn't look like Beautiful Chaos has been on in a few years. That sucks. I had an old email but last time I tried it it just bounced back as undeliverable, and I haven't been able to track her down.

So far the Restored Content has been awesome. There was a Dustil Restored Content mod for Korriban that was the best so far. I'm in the middle of the M4-78 mod, and it's good for a fan made level, but you can definitely tell it was a fan made mod and not part of the game. The design is decent and the story is interesting but it's just not really compelling to play. But props to the team for putting it together.

I'm sure it will tie in somehow given the ending of ME3 and how the loss of the mass generators would have effected everyone. It's supposed to be set in a completely different galaxy, so that will be interesting to see how they got there. And how the legend of the "shepherd" lives on.

That's interesting. I know there is at least one DS scenario where ***SPOILERS***  you have Zaalbar kill Mission and then you have to kill Zaalbar.

T3 didn't have a lot of personality at all in this game, but he did in KOTOR II. It makes him a somewhat uninteresting character for KOTOR I, but the progression actually makes a lot of sense in lore because KOTOR II addresses that droids regularly have their memory wiped in order to control them. So when T3 was purchased from the droid shop he likely had just been wiped and was kind of a blank slate. Then by KOTOR II he had gone a long time without a wipe (Bao-Dur actually asks him about it) and has developed a lot of odd quirks, which work into his character development in the game. But you're right, outside of the Sith base I normally just gave other team members high skill stats to match his and left him on the Ebon Hawk.

HK was awesome. I recently got to see all of his restored memory scenes (never unlocked them before because I didn't have a high enough repair skill) and they are hilarious. I love how he basically got all of his previous owners killed. And his commentary on situations if you have him in your party is awesome. He as the perfect blend a humorous yet sadistic killer.

Ok I have added the m4-78 planet mod so I'll post here how well it works. I also am trying the flawless HD mod for the game and so far it's running fine at 1080 and looks great. I am just getting to Telos so not really into the modded content yet. But man the graphics in these games have aged really well. They both still look really solid.

Malak... is perfect for the game, but he is a blunt instrument character. Revan was great at strategy and had a very charismatic presence that naturally drew people too him. Malak was a fairly powerful Jedi, but didn't seem to have the foresight to plan a war well and was to egocentric to listen to men like Saul Karath who actually knew what they were doing.

He got impatient looking for Bastila and decided to carpet-bomb a city planet that his own forces occupied. That's not ruthless, that's just stupid. Not stupid writing, just a character without the common sense of a gizka. I believe that he actually lost his jaw when Revan ordered him to take Telos and instead he and Saul just wiped out the planet... and Revan got royally peeved and had to punish him.

So The Sith Lords Restored Content mod is in version 1.8 now. I've added it to my playthrough and I'm working on going through it now. So far it's been stable, but I've only encountered a few minor changes in dialogue. Looking forward to more content soon.
