It’s hard to pick a place to start. It just has to much good stuff! Almost everything is kewler and better. Even the campaign is longer! The whole plot has changed but it is still a perfect sequel to the first one. The only thing that could have possibly made the game better is to add a dueling room to sharpen your fighting skills. I have not even finished the game and already excited. Feats, Skills and Powers You have more feats and powers to pick from. This new feats include a new feat for people who really want to expand on: stealth, dueling, repair, computer use, and on just about every other skill. Many of the new powers include a new heal, brand new force crush that is only found in the second game, and many more powers. The only thing that is not new in this area is the skills. You still pick the same old skills but this time they are affected by many other things. Companions You also have a new selection of other companions. You also now have 2 characters you can add that depend on aliment and sex. If you are evil you will get a wookie. If you are good then you will get a human. If you are male you will get handmaiden. If you are female you will get disciple. Planets/ areas The new variety of the greenery, background effects in the levels, sounds and just whole area is completely changed. You will now have the opportunity to visit Telos. Including this planet you have seven other places to visit. Stuff from KotOR If you are a hardened KotOR player then you will recognize some of the old companions from the first game. HINT: Carth. Equipment You now have even more to choose from as equipment goes. New implants, swords, shields, guns, armor, and gloves are now available. Weapons You will also see a new selection of weapons compared to the first game. If you were a light saber fan in the first game then you will love that you will actually be able to customize and ultimately BUILD your own light saber. You also have new guns and mines/ grenades. Making items In this game you are now able to make items. You can also breakdown certain items. With this new ability you are now able to make med packs, implants and mines. If you really would like to make items have a person or companion to controller that has a high repair skill.

Modern RPGs are driven by gripping stories and apparently a lot of voice acting. The story has no twists to it or surprises. KOTOR had a twist ending that could surprise most people. It also seems like Obsidian or Biowar... Read Full Review

Really, this game is that good. I'd have to say its the best RPG game I have ever played. It is great because you can stick to the basics of Star Wars with all of the lightsabers and blasters and what ever else, but have... Read Full Review
