In Kotor characters were more fleshed out and felt more natural. Also every character had a "personal quest" just like here, i don't see any difference between the two in terms of character interaction other than in ME2 you are forced to do their quests. Only in KOTOR i cared for the characters, because you spend time with them unlike here where you talk to them once they give you their cliched story, you shoot some stuff and do their quest and im now supposed to care for them? what the hell do you do in kotor that is even that different or worthy of note. You find character(how the hell was finding some of these characters anymore natural, it isn't like you go out of the blue to find these people in Mass Effect 2), you conversate, you learn about them more as you go and you do there missions. Mass Effect 2s characters have there own story, and alot of there stories ended up being interesting. Again everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but Kotors cast of characters were filled with as many cliche's as Mass Effects. So I'm really finding it hard to praise that game, and then not praise Mass Effect.[QUOTE="Revan_911"]

one endboss does not take away from a games narrative from being epic or deep. and the end boss was massive and well fun. and over the top? have you played other games before. I'm sorry I was playing games like Bayonetta not to long ago, Mass Effect 2 is tamed if you really want to call it over the top. It's flashy, thats a better word.
The Boss fight was very flashy, and such an obvious reference to another Scifi flick. But hey it presented a fun choice. The narrative is epic for the scale and how personal it gets. It's deep for how much further it goes with the fiction of the series and the revelations, and I'm having the hardest time taking someone serious when they are telling me KOTOR had better character interaction or even better cast of characters. Penalty flag for false advertisement.jg4xchamp
To me Mass Effect is just better done. Exploration was better in KOTOR. And where Kotor's gameplay lacks versus ME is that ME2 is more engaging and visceral, but KOTOR was a bit more strategic and overall deeper into the customization. That Said I prefer Mass Effect 2s way of doing things It's not really KOTOR vs ME2 im just saying that the character interaction everyone is praising was done better before, it was done in DA too and it never really got personal for me in any game.
