The more I play Star Wars : Knights of the Old Republic , the more I feel that the rest of the Star War games are but pathetic excuses of a game.
Essentially , you take control of a custom-made character ( Whose background is a secret due to spoiler reasons =w= ) and you are a Republic soldier onboard a fleet under assault from the Sith.
Note that this event took place way before the time of Starkiller and even Anakin himself , as the words "Old Republic" suggests.
Soon enough , you've realised that the raiders have taken hold of Bastila , a Jedi skilled in the ways of Battle Mediation and thus , you found yourself thrusted into the task to save her.
After saving her ( and after a dozen events and side-quests and what not... ) , you find yourself trained by the Jedi Council ( Because the Force is strong in you , a typical setting , really :P ) and soon enough , you became a Padawan given the task to find the "Star Forge" , along with Bastila , in order to stop Lord Malak from achieving whatever he intends to achieve.
Interestingly , the main character , despite being a "Custom Made" character , plays a very important role in the storyline unlike other RPGs which features a similar system. For once , I feel as though my "Custom Character" is REALLY there , not like other RPGs like Phantasy Star Portable and God Eater Burst of which I feel that my character is somewhat translucent in the plotline.
What's more , you can choose to be good , or to be evil. Well , I admit , I've tried to be evil at first but my conscience starts to throb pretty badly and all so I ended up being good :o
Naturally , your alignment will also affect your Jedi powers.
Anyways , I've never expected a Star Wars RPG to work out so well , sure , the game does look pretty mechanic in nature , but for an RPG , I daresay they did good.
... Though since it's developed by Bioware as well , I'm kinda hoping that they'd put abit more effort into the swordfights like they did with The Witcher.
Anyways , May the Force Be With You , my Sith Apprentices >:D
