KOTOR2 - Continue to get better, this means YOU!
I am sincerely annoyed at how broken this game is. I mean that literally and in the "unfinished" sense. Don't know what I mean? Look up information of the game and search for terms like "Team Gizka" and you'll learn soon enough. The game is a worthy play however, with much untapped potential and a deeper continuation of the story laid out in KOTOR. Seriously, devs and publishers, finish the games you make BEFORE you release them and take a tip from some of the competition - stop setting your clientele up for headaches by shipping broken games. You've plenty of money/funding, make bloody good use of it please! I await KOTOR 3 should cooler/smarter heads prevail to get this done properly.

An Excellent Game with One Problem
This is an overall improvement on the first Knights of the Republic, which is saying something since the first game was a blast. The same things that made the first one a winner are still here. Dynamic and simple interface and combat. Easy to understand skill system and interesting followers/villians. Fun little side games in the form of racing and card playing, etc. etc. All in all, a fun game you should buy.
One problem. The storyline, while interesting, doesn't exactly make alot of sense. You keep EXPECTING it to, you keep waiting for that little missing piece of the puzzle to come along that'll make it all come together but it never really does. The ending as a result, is lacking. You leave the game feeling like you've had a good time but somehow still unsatisfied. I have heard via the net that they cut out fairly large branch adventures during design and I suspect the problem is they didn't bother to tidy up the loose ends, but whatever the case, they should have put more rational thought into the story.
Nevertheless, it's a game I am glad I have and look forward to seeing yet another sequel. If the online Star Wars game was even a tenth as fun, we'd all be playing it.

Sequels can be better than the original . . .
In this humble bumble's opinion this just as good or even better than the 1st one. The fact that towards the end you find who's on who's side adds an extra edge to the game. The only complaint I might have is that game designer's didn't really bridge the two together, but considering that theme prevailent in the game that might conscience decision on the game developer's part.

Awesome game if you have the specs..
If you computer can run it, and you have time to play it, this is quite an engrossing game. The controls and screen set up are VERY similar to the first game.

Great game, despite some flaws
This game is actually better than it's predecessor, despite the fact that it was a bit rushed on the market. I encountered several, (unacceptable in my opinion) bugs. Thanks to the latest patch 1.0b most of them are gone. While KOTOR had a great plot with a fair amount of twists, the game path was rather linear. KOTOR II offers a similar experience, but the story has more depth and the number of possibilities are greatly increased. The good graphics and superb voice acting contribute a lot in recreating the Star Wars Universe "look and feel". The AD&D rules are a bit simplified, yet the legacy is kept intact. It's one of my favorite games and I strongly recommend it to anyone. Only 4 out of 5 because of the stupid people who force release dates.
