Silkroad Online Forums

well this game has been out for awhile, and im just wondering, anyone have it? like it? hate it?

i have to say i love this game.
what is ur opinion?

I heard that game sucks. Repetitive, weak, and short storyline (thats what I heard). Also that game has no multiplayer which is makes any game suck (imo).

i've heard the same, haven't tried it tho
basically you're buying a one time game which is relatively short for 50 or 60$? nah..

i'll wait for it to come out for pc

Yup I don't think it is worth $60 USD which in the end would turn out a crap game...

I was gonna wait for the PC version but i couldnt, got the game for the 360 and played it for 3 days non stop. It isnt a short game. Maybe if you rush through and only do the stuff you need to do to finish the game it would be short, but that would just be boring.

No multiplayer? multiplayer with this game would suck anyway. I liked games more back in the day when multiplayer was rarer. Developers put more effort into making the games last, rather then just sticking in a mulitplayer option and relying on the community to make it last.

The only thing i didnt like was when you go back and replay a level to get something you missed or just cus your bored and you want to assassinate random people for no reason you cant skip the storyline sections. You gotta stand around for 5 mins listening to the story youve already heard before you get back to the game.

Surely you can't be serious.
haha..
I don't remember any games that I could actually play for more than a week that was completely offline. I can only think of a couple games that lasted over a week, everything else didnt last long, maybe I did just rush through tho.
although, If they modded the online capabilities to this game, it could be really fun online, even if it was just 5v5, one side the assassins, one side the target, if the levels were made right, and everything fit it could be a lot of fun.
I was expecting a multi player option with this game actually, seems to fit

Multiplayer would not fit into this in anyway, if they did put multiplayer in it the multiplayer would have no meaning and would clash with the idea of the game.

And the singleplayer games i am talking about were from the 80s/early 90s when practically all games were completley offline.

what games? I started gaming in the late 90s, guess I wouldn't know about that then, but it'd be nice to get some good ones.
also how would it clash? I wouldn't know at all, I haven't read much about the game since it started on the console.
also you missed the joke :/

well if you look at it a certain way i guess you can call it repetitive, but so is anyother game if you think of it.
this game you can do a lot of stuff.
weak? not really.
short storyline? no not at all.
mutiplayer wouldnt work with this game at all

I only hear good things about it hear in the netherlands but ok

I love the game myself even tho it is indeed a bit repetiteve (sp? lol)

Im doing the last kill now but my game is bugged majorly >.< sucks

Here in Holland people are waiting for like ages for that game.

Also i have played it once, and i wasn't bored.

I really would have bought it if i had a PS3

Agreed... Like the Elder Scrolls Series... But Bethesday just announced that they'll make Elder Scrolls Online. Which I think... would suck.

Hm that might be kinda cool...

I'd rather play alone... than play with kids/immature people that likes to spam "I R P@WNZ0R"... which ruins the fun.


Edit: and Elder Scrolls is about the story/lore... and not about "my char is better than yours"

cool for the first 5 hours.

then you do the same thing over and over.
and when you go into stealth, the AI sucks so bad theres no way anyone can stop you.


[omg sounds like sro playing as a rogue]

but if you think about it, if the community was full of mature well minded people that were there to simply enjoy the game, elder scrolls online would probably be the next big thing.
then again, there's no way to filter out the assholes .

i just dont see how it would work.. they would need to change a lot of things ect

well..I had idd 2 controllers connected at the time, so it could be it..i''ll try tomorrow, gotta sleep now =p

I definitely want to play this game. I never looked so forward to any other game than this one.

Unfortunately I don't own a 360 or a PS3, so I gotta wait for the PC version. But I'm going to get it as soon as it's out. :3

no... that is with doing all the shit you can ( its pretty much impossible not to do everything since its a very linear game as far as quests and world goes)
don't get me wrong i friggin love both KOTOR games

i played through both of them 5 times:

first time just doing both light + dark ( just kinda checking the game out)
then just Male(light) , Male(dark), Female(light) , Female(dark)
