The rule system that will allow all of these possible events to occur in the game is the d20 (pen & paper), tabletop system. For those hardcore role-players out there, it's the same system used for Dungeons & Dragons and the Star Wars (tabletop) Role-playing Game. In addition to adding new feats and skills which was previously announced, the game system is being tweaked in order to give the player new or additional uses to the same skills. For instance in KotOR, Treat Injury only allowed you to improve healing as the skill increased. That same skill in KotOR 2, say, when reading a data terminal in a hospital, can give you access to more information and possible side quests that would normally be unattainable with a character of lower skill, in addition to healing you at faster rates.
