This isn't Star Wars

User Rating: 3.7 | Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II - The Sith Lords PC
Star Wars is a series of movies that are supposed to be fun, imaginative, exciting, especially with its THX 5.1 Reccomendations on the DVDs! Most games are able to capture this fun, Republic Commando was a great game, Battlefront 2 is an easy alternative to Battlefield 2, The Jedi Knight series from the beginning of following Kyle Kattarn have been extremely great games. There are however some bad Star Wars games, recently I would say the KOTOR series, and the Empires at War game.

The reason as to why I don't like KOTOR is because instead of making it a vast open RPG, We're playing it like I'm playing Final Fantasy which is a great game, but Star Wars doesn't fit that style. If this game was something like Elder Scrolls Oblivion or S.T.A.L.K.E.R's RPG System where fighting is freely done, not by a turn based system, then this game would be a hit with ANYBODY! The problem is this game's combat system simply isnt fun to play. And I get angered if my person doesn't use his Bacta Healing Pack before its the other people's turn because then he is dead, and I am outnumbered.

The game itself is open, and I like the environment, but as I said before, what you do mostly is combat and that is where this game falls short on.

Star Wars should make you feel like you're in the movie, and they do, alongside most of their recent games, however this game simply does not, I don't feel like I'm fighting with a fool named Roth, I don't feel like I'm killing a Sith Lord, I don't feel like playing this game anymore

And trust me, I've played this game alot, just to try to finish it, but right now this is just punishment and I've stopped
