hooooooow

once I leave ga-koro I can't do anything because of glitches

Are you playing on BioMediaProject? All the glitches have been fixed on that version, and if you have an account on the website your game automatically saves. The only funny thing I noticed is that the Nuju and Nokama speech files didn't change after I beat Ko-Koro and Onu-Koro respectively, but it didn't matter because everything else worked.

I am, yes. It's actually worse for me than it was on bionicle.com years ago. =/

That's bizzare. Do you know the Kapura cheat? You type in "kapura" then press 8, and it refreshes the screen. It repairs the Ta-Koro bridge screen that never works. Alternatively, you can use the Edit State function at the bottom of the screen to go anywhere on the island instantaneously.

I was using the edit state over and over trying to get to random places but it would just load up a glitched screen. was unaware of the kapura thing though, so I will give that a shot. Thanks.

I was able to beat it 2 or 3 years ago using a download version of it. I was also able to do it "legitimately" without upping the skills in code, but that was only because I was (purposely) using a slow computer, making the skill games much easier, especially stamina and strength. It was strangely rewarding completing, though I always loved this game because of the added Matoran culture and so on.

Oooh, that's clever. I'll have to give the game another try using Cheat Engine to slow the framerate, it never occurred to me that modern computers might be playing the game faster than intended.

I've never been able to complete the game without cheating. I literally upped Hahli's skills all to 100 and I still couldn't beat the Kolhii matches. I'm terrible at this game.

Eh, I found it frustrating and, when I finally finished it in a downloaded verson years ago, thought the ending was underwelming. It was a nice island exploring game, but it totally cut out any real story elements, didn't feature the Toa at all, and that's also igoring the hard-to-win Kohlii games. I never managed to win it without using the cheat to auto-win games. MNOLG 1 was better.

To its credit, Mata Nui Online Game II did a great job establishing the Matoran culture and how it varied between the different villages. It also was one of the only times when the Matoran value system had a lot of depth, since not only were there the three generic virtues but also more unique principles specific to each village (and skills derived in turn from those principles). The principles tied in quite elegantly with the Rahkshi and made their powers a lot more poetic — they weren't just generic scary superpowers, they were the antithesis of everything the Matoran villages stood for.

As far as gameplay and plot were concerned, I do think Mata Nui Online Game was the stronger of the two. And obviously the broken-ness of MNOGII detracts a lot from it as well. But MNOGII was a valiant attempt at world-building, and it was a shame that a lot of what it achieved was basically ignored by other story media.

Well done.  I gave up on that game pretty quickly.
