Classic that still holds up

I love this game and its setting. It was my first introduction to eastern philosophy and religion years ago. I'm particularly fond of the karma system, which I thought was done better than KOTOR. The game also ran better on my PC than it ever did on my xbox/xbox 360 with fast loading times. I used both an xbox one and a gamecube controller, both work marvelously. If you like KOTOR and want something a little more action-packed, buy dis

The best Bioware game ever.

I played Bioware games since Baldur's Gate, and this was the most fun I had with any of them. In true Bioware fashion, the dialogues can be absolutely delicious (Egregious Prevaricator anyone?), and it's full of memorable NPCs (I'm looking at you, Lustful Lao, Zhong, and Qi the Promoter). Looking at the overland map, you can clearly notice that the game was intended to be considerably larger that it was, which is a shame, as it left me hungering for more. It is a love poem to the martial arts genre, sometimes with meme levels of hilarity, and a truly unique gem of a game.

It's OK

I can't help but to review this game knowing that it came out two years after KOTOR and in the middle of Mass Effect's development. BioWare was no strangers to deeper dialog and game mechanics, this game does not have that same level of magic the others have. RPG mechanics are shallow and the combat is buggy and still. You get access to many styles early on but will find yourself only using a few. It feels like a game BioWare did in their spare time in between projects. Some cool ideas but overall it's just an OK experience.

Great fun but frustratingly flawed

First the positives: - Really great story. Nothing really to surprise if you're used to Bioware plotlines but really elegant overarching plot and interesting characters that are worth exploring. - Imaginative combat (that is also a negative but we'll get to that). The idea of utilising complmentary styles that serve different purposes - one to slow down the enemy, another to attack, another to attack at range and also limited "bullet time" to thin the herd or escape sticky spots. In theory, it should add up to varied, fun combat. - Lovely worldbuilding. Most of the sidequests are interesting to do and add to the atmosphere of the world. - John Cleese Negatives: - Too many enemies are immune to magic and support styles meaning you're basically dodging and button mashing weapon and martial styles. It would have been much better to make some styles work more effectively than others against certain enemies instead of limiting the styles so badly that 30% of the fights are quite boring. - The game is far too easy. I'm not very good at most games as I started late and don't have the reflexes of native gamers, but I had almost no problems on Grandmaster difficulty, mashing my way through most of the game. In fact, planning my attacks carefuly was less effective that just running in with weapon style and crushing everything. - The camera is absolutely apalling - The few difficult fights are just hard by virtue of enemy numbers or over-healthed single enemies. There's only one boss fight that was really, really fun where you had to switch styles constantly as the enemy had shifting immunties but that was over way too quickly. - There is one style that is so freaking powerful it destroys the game unless you deliberately nerf yourself. I didn't upgrade this style all game but it was still more powerful than my fully upgraded styles and simply hammered enemies at the end. Jade Empire is great fun but it should be so much better, The bones of a truly great game are there.

not to be missed

miss this at your own peril it's not a perfect game but what little nitpicks there are do not degrade over time - it is an excellent adventure of style and grace, with hours worth of worldbuilding to explore. or you could rush through it and hate it but then you'd be missing the point on purpose.
