Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II - The Sith Lords

By far the best and most complex Star Wars story. You really should play it at least once, even though it has dated graphics and mechanics. Oh, and play it with the fan made restored content mode, since kotor 2 haven't been finished because Lucasarts' greed (that's why I gave it "only" 9 star). Compared to other Star Wars stories it is like books to comics. EA really should remake it with the original content, since sadly not everything could been restored.

this one is much better than the first and i have good reason. First of all my congrats for creating keria. She is the best character besides Darth Vader in star wars history. Because she keeps you guessing in the game about who she is and her character is full of mystery. This game keep me guessing till the end and it full of surprises. The music was better and the graphics and the Jedi robes were better. The story line was awesome. Best Game i Have ever played this game really keeps you going and i personally would love to see them make this game into either a movie or a TV series. Can't wait for them to make a third on. also i wish they came out with soundtrack cause the music is amazing. It really beats out the first one. The first one was great but this one was a lot better. Great Job!!!!

This game is a must-play primarily for the dialogue and voicework of Kreia, played by Sara Kestelman. This powerful, matronly role is extremely memorable and worth going through several times just to hear every bit of it. The game itself is very entertaining as well, allowing many routes to many paths, and all are not so obvious, which is a good thing. Majority of the voicework other than Kestelman's is excellent as well, in that it is very immersive. Very rarely will bad voice acting put you out of the game, save for the lackluster performance of Bao-Dur. It may have been a design decision to give him such a boring voice, but if this is the case, it was a poor decision indeed. On the whole though, this is definitely worth your while.

As time goes on, games seem to be cast in different lights as technology can cast old games aside as feeling "dated". It is inevitable. However some games are truly works of art and can be considered timeless. Knights of the Old Republic 2 counts as one of those games. Where the first one gives one of the greatest adventures in gaming KotOR 2 does something entirely different.

When I first played this as a young child I thought the GAME was amazingly fun with all sorts of choices for game play dark/light, force powers, companions, choices etc. It is the pinnacle of RP game ambition before graphics, presentation and streamlined game play took over. Not many games make you feel like an unstoppable Jedi/Sith.

Now as an adult I find this game to be simply put; Art. No game in the history besides maybe Bio shock, Prey, System Shock 2, and RDR 2 have attacked themes and played mind tricks on the players own beliefs. Simply put this game will challenge your beliefs in the grandest sense of good vs evil.

Kreia might be the greatest video game character ever. Every line of dialogue is captivating. This game is a meta analysis on Star Wars itself and what the Jedi and Sith are (morality). Transcending the setting and looking at the world in a Taoistic lens. It challenges what you think to be evil and good while at the same time the GAMEPLAY itself works in tandem with the themes of the story. Being good/jedi or evil/sith or even neutral all help bring the themes to light.

This is exactly what The Last Jedi attempted. Albeit far worse and with essentially 0 nuance. Even your companions react to you and challenge you at every turn where you have to maintain a balance and manipulate your companions with certain dialogue choices (influence) in order to make them the best they can be. Are you truly a wise/peaceful Jedi if you attempt to keep all companions happy? Are you not more like a sith using people to your advantage? This only scratches the surface of the themes.

Absolutely Brilliant. Only thing holding it from a 10 as others have said are the bugs, ending, and cut content. As of today there is a patched version on Steam and addresses many of the issues. Chris Avellone really hit a grand slam here and ever since I have followed him and loved gaming. Ironically nothing has come close to the grand scale of this game for me.

What is morale good and what is morale evil truly??? You could write English essays on this games themes.

It's hard to try and live up to a game that's been voted "Best Game of the Year" by at least 6 different groups. But this game almost does it. Enhanced interaction and influence with highly developed party members, more upgrades for your weapons, and a fascinating plot leave few weaknesses. If you've been reading the IMDb threads about this game or Xbox magazine, you know this already: the bosses are just not as menacing as Darth Malak was in the first game. Even so, I was playing this for hours at a time, whenever I could muster it in my schedule, and it became dangerous how much emotion I poured into that game. If you've played KOTOR 1, definitely play KOTOR 2.
