Light saber notes

[jwgh]

• Purple light sabers are cool.
• When two people are fighting and their light sabers are the same color, it is kind of confusing.

That is indeed quite confusing, especially when the fight moves very quickly.

When I walked out of that movie (after it ended, I mean), I walked past two groups of people who were independently trying to determine the algorithm that determines what alignment determines what color saber. I couldn't imagine a less interesting conversation after seeing that movie.

The lightsaber duels in this one, especially the start of the last fight featured, were sometimes wonderfully frenetic instead of merely full of great moves. I like a well-choreographed lightsaber duel as much as the next nerd, but I also like a good angry scrap-- what it loses in elegance it makes up in passion.

In KOTOR2, you can have your light saber be green, blue, yellow, silver, orange (or bronze, but it's the same color), or cyan, as well as purple or red (if you steal a crystal off a Sith's corpse).

I spent most of the time after the movie discussing with people how much more you could do in the games than could be done in the movies. Oh well.
