What You Made Your Character Look Like?

Post by DarthFletcher »

I was wondering if pshycologists can use games that offer multi options to how you make your character look and what force powers you give them can reflect on you as an individual.

Seems strange but in everything we would do we leave a bit of ourselves open to input in such games.

eg:
I completed using a light side Jedi class, that had all the stats to confirm 100% allignment to the light side yet, the Jedi Robes worn was less accustomed to the light side. I spent the better part of the game changing from Sith Apprentice Robes to Sith Master Robes and then finally wearing the Grey Jedi Robes.

anyone else noted such things, or did you playing attributes in mind?

I chose the gimpiest looking portrait I could (The gormless ginger dude) because I thought it'd be amusing if the gimp saved the universe

I did have Handmaiden wielding a double-bladed silver saber because it complimented her white Handmaiden Robe and I suppose my choice of saber colours in general was quite asthetic, but nothing else was chosen for visual reasons

My character is that male old looking hairstyle and I chose that because it looked Jedi-ish. So, no, it did not have anything to do with me or who I am.

Well seeing as i went for the dude with the very short dark hair and little beard thing in kotor 1, this time seeing as I'm blond with very short hair I went for the blond guy with very short blond hair and little beard as it looks a wee bit like me.

The heads in KOTOR II arn't as good as one, that male guy in KOTOR I with the gotee grew out and he looked sweet.. I made him a sith Blaster master and he'd own everything.. With the Sith face he looked great.. I'm now the shaved head (white) with a tiny gotee, its nto growing out and he looks old not evil and it saddens me. He wears Sith robes. (and is hacked :) )

My female PC is the... Err Well i kinda can't remember. She was kinda on random and i said ok. I was all zombie like and only really watched the back of her ehad while i killed EVERYTHING, not sith though.. haha.

I'll remake sometime and have the normal human looking girl that looks like the pink girl Luxa? ((Who was my frist evil Revan BTW Head wise)) And be all goody goody.. The sith faces dissapoint me. ((Sorry its late if this sound strange I'm sorry))

Could someone give me a link to a picture of the Ossus Robe?
I just need to know the colour pattern so I can pick the right crystals. I was planning a silver short saber with my own crystal in it together with a normal saber (purple) in my other hand.

just wondering would it be ok here if we posted pics of are character for the final battle just to show everyone. i have not tried but i am sure the print screen button would work to capture the image. i just thinking it would be nice to see, but i am fairly new here and i do not want to do something that is frown upon or i would have started a thread already like that. darn i typed a lot for having such a little bit to say :rolleyes:

my favorite head so far was the male head in KOTOR1 with the slicked back hair that came down to the back of his neck. I also liked the female revan head that had the hair that covered one of her eyes, very sexy. My favorite head in KOTOR 2 was the one with the buzzed head and the patch of hair under his lip. The KOTOR2 version was better than the KOTOR1 version, who looked like Steve-o from Jackass (though it was admittedly funny to see him all pale from dark side corruption.)

Ossus keeper robes look like regular jedi robes, but the inner clothes are ruddy brown rather than white. my consular wore ossus robes and carried a single green lightsaber. My weapon master was a female with brown hair that was pulled back (kind of hard to explain, so I am not going to bother.) She had dark jedi master robes and a silver two bladed lightsaber. My Sith Marauder has one of the female asian faces, carried two red lightsabers, and for comedic value, I had her prancing around in the dancer clothes. Her Dexterity was high enough to the point where she had a better AC naked than she did wearing medium armor. Of course Jedi robes add an extra point of AC, but the dancer clothes were funnier because she was running around like a psychotic stripper from hell.

And finally, my sentinel/watchman was one of the black dudes (the one who looks like Tiger Woods) who I named in honor of my black roommate. He'd watch me play and add in his own two cents like "kill that N***a!" and other funny stuff. Of course, when he inquired as to why I was fighting handmaiden in my underwear, my reply was "oh you know, I gotta put these white hoes in their place." Sarcastically of course. ;)
