inside the nasty mind of star wars nerds

i've always been amazed that whenever i check the reference page of my counter, i always get at least a hit every day or two, from someone googling with the keyword: bastila, lesbian, naked. apparently it took the googler to my entry about knights of the old republic and my little dirty thought about my female character having a little lesbian action with bastila.

so i decided to do a little investigation myself. i googled up such terms and got taken to some starwars forums. about three or four of them.

much to my surprise, i found out that if you use a male character, you can romance bastila. this is of course, something i've never done since i was never too interested in the conversations. and apparently if you use a female character, you can romance carth. very interesting. however, one thing that surprises me, is that apparently whoever wrote the storyline, intended for juhani to be a lesbian. this is no rumor. people have tried over and over and found this out. maybe it's a glitch, but what if it's not. apparently if you have a female character and talk to juhani a lot, you'll eventually get to do juhani's little side-quest and get to see this guy, a slave trader who apparently have been selling juhani's race, the cathars. well, juhani turns out to be one of the slaves he had sold before. make a long story short, you get to kill this guy, but apparently if you are on the light side and tell juhani not to give in to her anger, after this sidequest is completed, she'll, well, fall in love with you. haha. some people in the forum have been able to get the romance glitch between the female character and juhani and they thought that was a really great twist. then i looked back to my experiences in playing kotor and i realized i've gotten there. when i was using light side i saw these people and i did play the dont-give-in-to-your-anger route and i think i noticed her saying about some of those implicit lesbian stuff, but that time i wasn't paying attention to it since, like i said, i wasn't big on the conversation part of the game; all i wanted was just to kill kill kill.

heh, this game is getting much more interesting. definitely worth playing again for the fourth time (and probably more). that is, after i get this stupid summer school shit done with.

on a side note, knights of the old republic is coming out late 2004 or early 2005. haha. definitely a-must-buy. or a-must-download, that is. =)
