Date: 2006-12-31 love it! got this for my brother! and he played it on my computer and he beat the game in under 2 days (nonstop play) then he went out and got Oblivion which is another great game like this one according to my brother although it is very demanding.
Date: 2006-12-02 The first game was better... The problem with this game is story... there isn't one. While the first game was a lot of fun with a great plot line, this game doesn't seem to really take you anywhere. This game has the same game play as the first(which I think is great), but the story is awful and incomplete (not to mention all the bugs and flaws I encountered). Play the first one and don't bother with this game.
Date: 2006-11-30 BEST GAME EVER! I was worried about playing this because the first game was lacking, but being a true Star Wars fan, I had to. Turned out, it was great! The new powers are awesome, the party is good when you get used to them, the lightsaber colors are great. The only downside is that your standing with each party member can shift. This is good and bad. The good is that it opens up extra powers/events. The bad is that it is EXTREMELY hard to keep everyone happy with you. If you are a Star Wars fan, grab this. If you like Jedi, get this.
Date: 2006-11-30 my 2 cents ok well first I think that this game is complete unlike many reviews that say it isn't. I think they left PLENTY of room for a sequel but this one in itself is complete. I have played it at least 7 times all the way through now and it never get's old. I think the side quests are fine as well and there are so many of them you see a new one each time you play again.
I think that lucasarts did a good job with this one. Now for the newbies who havn't played a KOTOR game before =].
this is a RPG (Role Play Game) and it has a turn based fighting system that I love, it is not like you just sit there and click the one attack you want to do run over to the enemy and hit them then run back to your place (I hate those lol) you do decide certain moves but you are fighting all the time doing moves and stuff you can put four moves in a line waiting to be used and once you are through doing one attack the other person attacks then you attack. It makes the combat faster than other RPG's I like that. There are tons of mysteries and puzzles and in fact for one I had to ask my older sister to help me with because it was so hard (but don't worry there are online walk throughs to be sure =]).
as you play the things you do or say will attune you to the light or dark side of the force, for instance: you can walk up to a man who needs some money because he is poor and talk to him, then you can either say "here take 20 credits" or you could say "give me all your credits or I'll finish you misrable life for you!"
depending on which side of the force you are attuned to you can use light or dark side powers for less force points, so if you are high on the light side and you use heal, it will cost much less than if you were on the darkside thus you can use it more. But if you tried to use lightning while on the light side it will cost much more and you will not be able to use it as much.
the Character creation is very good as well, there are 3 classes you begin with gaurdian, sentinel, or consular you can be male or female with no affect on attributes. You can do quick Character and just pick your face and name or do the advanced one were you get to pick your attributes, skills, and feats.
the story is a long one that unravels itself at a good pace (not to fast or slow) with lot's of dialog on the force from you "master" Kreia. And asks hard questions to answer such as: when you help someone are you really helping them? Or by helping them are you robing them of the experiance that could help them survive? Very interesting.
Also I liked the influence system, if you make decisions that one of your companions support then you will gain influence with them each person respects something different, some like wittyness, others like you to show respect for their privacy, some just like you being nice to them, others like cunning and deciet, and some like outright brutal slaughter.
The more influeance you get with a person the more they will reveal themselves to you and their past and what they think and feel. As some have said there is not a good romace plot in this one but that's suits me just fine because I think it is silly to have a fake romance with a computer =P and I didn't like having to tell bastila that I wasn't in love with her in the first one (because yes lol they are pretty realistic even that may sound silly to some).
I think that they should make another one, I am looking forward to a sequel if ever they make one. And that concludes my review I hope you learned something =].
Date: 2006-11-12 Great Game Empty Ending I loved the game.The characers are great. The worlds are interesting, it still deosnt look outdated. And the combat is fairly strategic. Unfortuneatley the games ending is rather lack luster.
