On a number of occasions it got so bad my game literally turned into a slide show making it impossible to coordinate any attacks until some of the bad guys died off. This happend as more enemies cluttered the screen. It fluctuated more than the emotions of a pregnant woman in her 2nd trimester. Not so, if I spent 90 seconds on him that was a lot.Īnother issue was the frame rate. Take Darth Nihilus, you know him as that scary masked guy on the box art, well right from the start he's portrayed as this unstoppable planet killer who gobbles up Jedi like fresh popcorn. And ironically enough, the Boss's were even bigger push overs. Speaking of easy, I couldn't believe how ridiculously easy the enemies like Dark Jedi, Elite Sith and Bounty Hunters were. And not to mention I could finally pick a Jedi with a beard! But that's not to say I didn't run into any of these clones, just less this time. If you read my last review on KotOR, you'd know that I had a problem with the rehashed character models. I'm happy to say that the characters are a little more diverse this time. Unlike the first installment, I'm amazed at how easy it was this time around, save the last Boss battle (which is actually cake once you figure out the weakness). Like the movies, played the 1st KotoR? Welcome back! Over all it's a good game and is worth buying, but only if you enjoyed the first game and are hungry for more. WARNING: Do NOT beat this game as a dark side jedi first because the ending is comepletely unexplained and it's totally pointless trying to beat it if you haven't beat the game as a light side jedi first (I won't give away the light side ending, but as a dark side jedi you see yourself, then the camera zooms out until all you can see the planet you are on, and that's it, that's the ending, there's NOTHING else at all). Other than those 3 things the game is almost exactly the same.

In this game most containers have totally random items in them, allowing you to get the most powerful stuff at the very beginning and also get nothing but garbage the entire game. In the first game all of the monsters dropped the same things, and the boxes contained the same things. The only 3 really noticable differences are: new story, your alignment and additude affects your allies, and the random items found. The main thing is that this game is too much like the first. If you enjoyed the first KotOR then you should get it, though the store price is too high. It's almost a requirement these days that game sequels have better graphics. The graphics are nearly exactly the same as the first, which came out like 5 years ago. KotOR 2 is a great game and all, but it's not quite as good as its predeccesor. Obsidian, developer of the sequel, The Sith Lords, had some big ideas for the third game, which they did not get to make.The first KotOR is better, but still a fun game The Knights of the Old Republic games are considered one of the best Star Wars games ever, amongst the most critically acclaimed RPGs. Indeed, Bloomberg's Jason Schreier previously noted that we won't be able to guess the studio's name. Over on Resetera, insider Shinobi602 said the developer won't be a "household name", but that it won't be entirely surprising once it's confirmed. As for who's actually making the new Knights of the Old Republic, no one is really sure. It's logical to expect other announcements to follow soon. So far, Lucasfilm Games together with Ubisoft have already announced a new open-world Star Wars game by The Division developer Massive. This is now possible thanks to Disney's recent revival/reestablishment of the Lucasfilm Games label (formerly Lucas Arts), which opens the door wide open for all game developers and publishers to pitch Star Wars projects. However, it will not only be made outside of BioWare, it also won't be published by EA. Right around the same time that report came out, noted Star Wars podcast Bespin Bulletin revealed that they, too, have heard that a new Knights of the Old Republic is in development. However, it's not clear who's actually making the game. The game would also canonise some characters and events, as it will be produced under Disney, similar to Jedi: Fallen Order and Battlefront 2 - characters from both of which exist within the new canon.

One report from Cinelix indicates that the game would be "a sequel of sorts" that builds on elements from both of the classic Knights of the Old Republic games.

The old Knights of the Old Republic rumour is back, though seemingly under different circumstances.Ī new Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic is reportedly in the works.
