kotor

I never really realized how cool the KOTOR was until I thought about it earlier today. This must have been the first interactive RPG that I have ever played that had such a huge twist in it. I never fully expected to be the Sith Lord Revan.

That experience was unlike other RPG's I had played because of it's cool turn of events. If I look at Morrowind, I always knew (after a short amount of time) that I WAS the Nerevarine. I could always make my choices for right or for wrong determining my path towards what service I undertake whether good or evil, but I was always knowledgable in the fact that I was the nerevarrine and my character was set.

KOTOR redid the character story concept adding the cool new twist to the idea and making the game's story experience very fun in other ways that other RPG's had never done (at least that I have experienced). Though I do think the actual storyline and gameplay was not as good as many other interactive RPG's, it did add that new and tentalizing element that made the game touch a different part of me that others had not.

I only hope that the next KOTOR, will live up to it's predecesor, and I think it will in ways. THe gameplay and story from the first definately could have been improved such as vastness, and a better character system. But the twisting plot was very orginal and will be hard to overdue, especially since most people will be expecting it to try.

I have faithe in lucas arts, they have pulled off some very amzing things before, for instance the multi billion dollar franchise that has grown from what many people consider to be the greatest movies of all time.
