Yeah.
You can't get any more gray than that, Dark One.
I don't see you as a threat, and therefore I will allow you into the Library of the Ancestors, but I have complete power over you within the Library. Do you agree with my proposal?
By the way... you both profess the path of the Sith...

Of course, Gray force user... no one has ever accused me of outright lying or dishonor... ;)

Yes, we are both Lords of the Dark Side... but we have different views on darkness, and therefore our worldviews differ...

Great idea! I don't know yet who I'll be... I'll definitely come up with something! ;) By the way, let's avoid the "gray Jedi" concept. It doesn't exist in either the movie or the book – there's no such thing, because the law dictates that you're either a Jedi or a Sith. You don't necessarily have to be a member of the Order or a servant of the Empire, but there are no "neutrals" among those who wield the Force. If you're philosophical, a guardian, and don't succumb to anger and hatred, you're a Jedi. If you're quick-tempered and use any means to achieve your goals, solely for your own benefit, you're a Sith. Make your choice, gentlemen:)

But what if I'm angry and selfish with some, and kind and gentle with others?! :smile14:
Here, have a bite... And in general, a grey Jedi is like a hermit, not participating in any events...

True, the hermit is like Yoda, and he, as far as I remember, was a Jedi. As for the rest, he's a Sith, because a Jedi is always honest and brave with everyone, and generally embodies the image of a knight in shining armor. But actually, he's not even a Sith, because Siths only love themselves (and I don't need you to remind me about Anakin and Padme, he was still a Jedi back then :p). Look, I'm not against the "gray Jedi" concept, I even support it. However, if you allow the existence of a "neutral Jedi" who is neither with the light nor the dark side, all players will start waving lightsabers and shouting "I'm gray! I'm light! I'm gray-brown-purple with polka dots!". And the game will become uninteresting. After all, there are plenty of professions OTHER than lightsaber-wielding! Show some imagination, for crying out loud! I haven't met a single Star Wars fan who wouldn't imagine themselves as some kind of mega-lord in that world, moving starships with a flick of a finger, or a hyper-master who can kill a hundred enemies faster than I can say "thirty-three". What do you think "Kotor RPG" will look like if it's filled with "THINGS LIKE THAT"?

As for the rest, he's a Sith, because a Jedi is always honest and brave with everyone, and generally embodies the image of a Knight in shining armor on a white horse. But actually, he's not even a Sith, because Siths only love themselves (and I don't need you to remind me about Anakin and Padme, he was still a Jedi back then :p). Look, I'm not against the "gray Jedi" policy, I even support it. However, if you allow the possibility of being a "neutral Jedi" who is not on either side, then all players will start waving lightsabers and shouting "I'm gray! And I'm light! And I'm gray-brown-purple with polka dots!". And the game will become uninteresting. After all, there are plenty of professions OTHER than lightsaber-wielding!

I agree... but comments are what they are...

Okay, I'll be a moderate "Afro-Jedi"...

Maybe you should start with the system itself, rather than assigning roles for a future RPG?

First, we need to decide how many planets and locations will be used! I need to know everything about the planets and locations from Knights of the Old Republic 1 – the climate, local flora, and fauna.
The next problem is simplifying the character development system – since people tend to prefer action in this type of RPG, and calculating RPG actions is too complicated!
Third, do we need weapon and lightsaber upgrades? Since the audience prefers action, I think it would be best to remove them!
Fourth, we will have to simplify the skill and ability acquisition system – again, for the sake of action!

And I think we should add "mechanical aptitude" to the three main skills – it would allow players to repair droids, starships, and even craft something from various scraps.

Which three main skills are you referring to? And yes, we will definitely add droids! You could even assemble General Grievous! :D :D

Yes, those special upgrades need to be removed, leaving only the simplest ones... and also crystals for the lightsabers...

Wizard! Have you even played? There's Strength, Dexterity, Endurance, Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma. Building droids or something like that will just be a new skill, similar to wielding a two-handed weapon.

I played it (though not much), but I thought we would have some different skills than in the original game. What use would you find for CHARISMA in a text-based RPG? This has already been discussed.

Persuasion of characters - both through normal means and with the help of force, as well as a bonus in trading.

Okay, then let's talk about planets. :) I don't know, maybe some of you have played "STARWARS - racers"? There were a ton of planets in that game. I don't remember all of them, though. I'll try to recall them.
