Siege of Dragonspear

KotOR 2

I am sad to see the obfuscating percentages back in the game. That was one part from PoE which should have been dropped. These are always relative and give little idea into what advantage you might have by selecting them before you do. Crisp, clear additive numbers are better at communicating the information.

Have not played JA2 to much becouse of reasons.
Kotor2 do not remeber with 100% certinity but I belive there was a male antoganist.

You didn't have to play so much. It was revealed in the intro

 

[Maculo]

Can't take credit for the image, but it fits this game hype.

 

[Angthoron]

So, wait. Kyros is a she? Am I the only to have missed this?

Also he. Remember the title of the game, yes?

Great Tyrant Kyros, The King and Queen of [Magiclands].

Eh JA2 released in 99 and It was a time when I was a schoolkid in greater potato-land. So no knowledge of any foreign language. Super limited Ethernet connection and pirated CD's of Fallout 1-2 with some translation. All I remember is some laptop interface.

BG2:ToB

Played only in original BG2.

DA:O
DA2

DA1 - got bored in dwarf caves.
DA2 - its all a myst. All I remember is a lot of reused assets.

Well DA2 is just shit nothing to remember. DA1 was a grind with some interesting twists (like possesd kid etc) Oh and I do remember that you can romance almost anything there. Overall they do not worth place in my memory.
I finished original BG2(story was kinda meh) I did not touched the expansions since its same game but with high lvls.
Nah I don't have problems with memory its just I don't remember bland/grey/boring experience.
Eh when I said that I don`t remember games with female antagonist I meant 1)RPG 2)solo, no teams since in almost any evil team there is a hot chick etc 3) Supreme evil overlord not some evil plankton.

Where have we seen a swapped gender anyway? in-game

IWD2 - team not supreme overlord.
Divinity have not played them.
Fear - is she a real evil? And not some doctor who tortured her?
GTA 3 - Played only 1,2 4 and San Andreas. PC was super weak and could not handle the 3rd.
Diablo 3 - I did not even bothered to pirate it play it watch lets play.
AI - have no gender, technically.

 

[Thonius]

99% sure gender is swapped because of chosen background.
Or Kyros is not a single person but rather a secret group etc.

We all know what is happening. Pick your preferred noun for Kyros from below.

Where have we seen a swapped gender anyway?

This is a big trend right now:



I remember recently reading about a similar move in scif novels. It's said to be a good way of broadening interest.

 

[Infinitron]

Two possible cases:

1) Kyros' gender is actually a secret in the lore of the world, in which case Obsidian's guy just spoiled us.

2) Kyros' gender is still unknown (they haven't decided yet), and Obsidian's guy is referring to him as a female just for the heck of it.

2) Kyros' gender is still unknown (they haven't decided yet), and Obsidian's guy is referring to him as a female just for the heck of it.

Maybe it's just their politics of always using female pronoun now.

That's what I mean by "just for the heck of it".

(Don't think it would be always though)

 

[Angthoron]

Fear - is she a real evil? And not some doctor who tortured her?

She is the real antagonist of the series.

GTA 3 - Played only 1,2 4 and San Andreas. PC was super weak and could not handle the 3rd.

Protagonist's ex is the evil villain in this one.

Diablo 3 - I did not even bothered to pirate it play it watch lets play.

Diablo tries on female lingerie.

AI - have no gender, technically.

Well, SHODAN didn't identify as an assault helicopter and acted as a "mother" to the mutants so I'll roll with "kinda female".

Bard's Tale (the one from 200-something inXile) antagonist is female. Although possibly also waifu, depending on your choice.

Actually, fuck it, I just googled this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Video_games_featuring_female_antagonists

Some of the entries are bullshit (since either they feature minor antagonists, or they're fighting games or someone was a retard) but it gives a general idea.

 

[Jack]

Kyros is a women? figures.

Equality and inclusivity. Or maybe it depends on your character background.
On a side note why not? I dont quite remember any game with female antogonist.

Who said Kyros is the antagonist?

 

[an Administrator]

Inb4 Codex becomes blacklisted for spoiling the gender of the main antagonist.

 

[Angthoron]

Inb4 Codex becomes blacklisted for talking of the main antagonist's gender as if gender is binary.
