Malgus FE feats-game mechanics?

Started by DarthAnt663 pages

The point is all his energy is being expended to sustain the TK hold.

That only makes the artifice more obvious, or alternatively a disembodied voice was narrating the fight. mmm

Yes a disembodied voice as in a narrator. An OOU narration. Which is what I said.

Ya..but if he's able to sustain a TK hold on 3 of them, crushing their throats shouldn't be all that difficult.

It would be while fighting the other one.

Perhaps the force user was resisting enough to prevent him from crushing their necks, or actively preventing it. Why doesn't Dooku crush Kenobi's neck in RotS?

Right, he has enough energy to do that. Yet he can't single 1 of the Non-Force Users out to crush them? Only way I see no, is if Malgus never even got a chance to use The Force in such a manner.

But at any rate, this is why I find debating TOR to be rather wonky, as we're never gonna get any accurate representation of what actually went down in a fight.

Yes, I was being sarcastic.

Not when all his energy is already used. 😬

Not very well. Whats your point? You want to dismiss it because you think its artificial?

Even if that were so, PIS isn't a thing exclusive to Swtor. Loads of people have used the force on people but failed to be decisive in doing so. It doesn't mean anything. Why didn't Maul, Ventress or Dooku break Kenobi's neck any of the times they've ragdolled him?

I mean before that.

Lmao

The same could be said about Revan. But no, is means he couldn't apply lethal force while dueling 4 opponents of this caliber.

This caliber = oneshot range. Right...

It didn't "require" anything, fool.

If you can't take it, don't start it phag.

Most of these had numerous circumstances behind making them credible threats, had prep or help and were fought far before the protags prime. The "hutt in a tank" for instance was in a prototype Isotope-5 droid, powered by an energy source so powerful it could turn the tides in a galactic war. As I said in the other thread, you also need to account for the large forces you need to fight through in these, which account for their difficulty and scale.

Your double standards are amazing, and so is how you wank SWTOR so much and yet have no idea what you are talking about.

Karagga was before RotHC, hence no Isotope-5. Besides the protags were capable to beat Isotope-5 tanks on Makeb alone.

I never said it was exclusive. I'm just saying is all.

My point is that a narration only distances the event further from the in-universe reality, where mechanics like that don't exist. Its part of the gameplay experience, not actual continuity.

Hardly. Its no different from the quest text in that it exists to explain whats occurring to the player. The text is clearly OOU, as obviously a disembodied voice isn't actually saying anything in the in-universe narrative, its speaking to the player directly and narrating the events of the fight.

For the purpose of the player experience, yeah, not the story. The fact that the player's name is used only reinforces that.

The player's name is used in scrolls and dialogue too, lmfao.

Because in the story, thats the players name. When you have a customizable character, the story reflects that. Its not like their name is literally "Jedi Consular" loool.

Another game mechanic, yeah.

Nah, that's what Malgus was doing my your estimation lmao.

Out of curiosity, do you openly accept that during that time, Malgus couldn't kill a ****ing Smuggler/Havoc Squad trooper? 🙂

That's what the entire discussion is about, Sel.
