While combat is largely the same as the first game, KOTOR 2 innovates by adding new companions to recruit, exotic new planets to discover and a roster of deadly Sith to defeat. *cough* Star Wars: The Old Republic *cough*.Like its predecessor, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2 is a real-time RPG where players can assemble a squad of loyal companions, learn the ways of the Force and explore a galaxy far, far away. In fact, it's when you don't do "more of the same" with KOTOR that you get bad results. Trust me, "more of the same" when it comes to Knights of the Old Republic is never a bad thing. I would dedicate my time to a second review on The Sith Lords, but it is honestly more of the same with a new story, new characters, and updated visuals. If given the choice to have over 1000 lines of removed dialogue, options, and so forth from a game all about your decisions was presented to you - free of charge - what would you do? Steam Workshop support only makes improving the classic title all the easier.įor those who have never played KOTOR II (or the original KOTOR) and interested to learn more about it you can find my Rewind Review on the first game here. While I would be hesitant to say that the game is "unplayable" without the restored content mod, I will agree that the game is much better while it is installed. Many players have jokingly said that the TSLRCM mod needs to be installed for the game to be "playable", while others are begging for Bioware to do the same for the original KOTOR. The changes have not only improved the game beyond the limitations of the original release, but have also resurrected an almost dead Star Wars community from the grave. While this update is seemingly out of the blue, it is completely well-received.
and we added a "Force Speed Effects" option in the menu )
The patch - which allows for Linux and Mac installation - also includes 6 major changes to the game, and a few surprises: While it would seem strange that the game would get an official patch so late in its life cycle (is it the afterlife cycle at this point?) the patch is more than welcome. Fans and players of the classic Star Wars game who have already installed the software will notice that the dusty old game has received a 175 MB patch in their download tabs.
