Should I buy this game

Post by fierydemise »

I recieved KOTOR 1 in December and throughly enjoyed it, to date I've played it through 7 times. I was wondering are the puzzles harder, the quests better ect. and should I buy this game?

Hmm there arnt as many puzzles but I would hav eto say it is harder. There are alot more quest's and they are difficult and fun :D and I do reccomend you buy it if you liked the first one.

It's worth buying. But they use the exact same engine. Also it does get choppy sometimes and also there are alot of glitches. Overall the story is worse than the first one, but the game is still fun because now you can affect the characters around you and make them into jedi's.

I couldn't agree more. If you liked the first game that much, you'll also enjoy this one. For anyone who didn't play the first game, however, I would definately recommend buying that first and see if they like that. The first game is obviously better. (and cheaper at the moment)

some things are better, some worse, i havent done it yet(because i`m playing it 3rd time already without finishing) in kotor1 the story was better, there were more enemies(or so it seems to me), the atmosphere seemed better to me, kotor1 is better, but 2 is also great and it has many good/bad improvements and i believe that everyone who finished the kotor1 should buy this

about the 3rd character i have -> in the first i didnt like the portrait, the second (guardian/weap master) was so good that the game was really boring, every enemy fell in 1 attack so now i`m trying consular which i hope will be more challenging

If you liked the first one, the second will will certainly be worth the money if you think about other ways you could spend that money. You'll certainly enough gameplay out of the second one. I think the second one offers some improvements in terms of game play such as influencing your party, turning them into Jedi,and having to play as a NPC more but is weaker in the overall story, climax, and villian area... though I think the second one has some better stories for individual planets.

KOTOR II was pretty easy my first time as a sentinel/weaponsmaster with two sabers but I've found that it's a lot easier as a consular/jedimaster with a single saber using group affecting force powers. In KOTOR II I rarely use shields or medpacs while I was using them all the time in the first one.

Well I had a free rental at blockbuster and I beat it as a rental playing through as a consular/sith lord with difficulty set to hard, it took longer than the first game for me (which I own), I liked the ending better than the first game's (but I think I'm in the minority there), I like the new upgrading capabilities, never used a medpack until the last battle, I like the crew better than the first's, fun force powers, the only drawbacks for me were the glitches and seemingly unscaling A.I. (I became too much of an uber-sith lord there at the end - killed most enemies with single power blast or swipe of lightsaber).

I'm waiting for a drop in the price before I buy it, but I'll definitely buy it.
