    Default KOTOR fans: Is it time...?

    Does any series deserve a sequel more than Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic?

    After the cliffhanger (and totally incomplete) ending to KOTOR 2, you'd think a third and final game would be a given, if for nothing else than to complete the trilogy and conclude the plot threads. I've heard rumor that BioWare isn't interested in continuing the series and is more concerned with original material, now that they're a popular company.

    Is it time to petition Lucasarts and BioWare for a third edition? Or do you think another game is on the way, just as of yet unannounced? I'll start the damn petition myself if it gets any gears in motion... Would you sign one?

    Last I heard they were developing KOTOR III for Xbox 360. And it doesn't matter what BioWare wants to do, Obsidian worked on the 2nd one.

    Obsidian may have done the second one, but that's no guarantee that they're doing the third one.

    No, but Bioware doesn't really 'do' sequels. And Obsidian did an extremely good job, all things (like them being rushed) considered.

    There's a rather large group of people out there that are of the opinion that the job Obsidian did on TSL was quite absymal.

    I found it okay, just saying, though, a lot of people hate it.

    Which seriously wasnt Obsidians fault.
    They did as good as it was possible, considering the pressure.

    Good for 'those people'. I, for one, loved the game.




    And considering they were forced to cut large chunks of it out, TSL being as good as it is just says more about their skills.

    Yup.
    While the story was a bit weaker than in Kotor1, I actually enjoyed playing Kotor 2 more.

    There's no doubt in my mind that KOTOR is the better game. However, I still love KOTORII. It's a flawed gem.

    Meh. KOTOR II certainly doesn't suck or anything, it doesn't quite have that same mysterious charm that kept me playing the first installation for 20+ hours straight with no idea of the passing of time. In fact, it's been two months since I last played it, and still haven't felt compelled to go back and actually finish the game.

    Ditto for me.

    KOTOR 2 was an inferior game. Still a very good one, but inferior to the original. Bad ending, but I've seen worse come out of rush jobs. (Xenogears, I'm looking at you)

    One thing I hope they do away with is turning your entire party into Jedi. Half a dozen people becoming Jedi over night really cheapens what it means to be a Jedi. It was one thing in Revan's case. Revan wasn't really learning to use the Force. He/She was remembering it, and just didn't realize.

    The only member of the KOTOR 2 cast whose transformation into a Jedi actually made sense was Disciple. He'd been brought up as one. He was still the worst Jedi in either game.

    Ill admit Kotor 2 was better and worse than KOTOR in some aspects, first of all what is with the deal with the animation for master flurry from kotor 2? its just like a little bitch slash, if you played kotor 1 it looked MUCH better, the one from 2 just makes your character look retarded with a lightsaber

    and kotor 2 seemed to have just as many if not more glitches

    But i still liked it, it would be cool if KOTOR 3 dealt with what happened to revan and exile, maybe even let you play as both of them at different times

    KOTOR2 felt a bit easier, but it was still challenging enough. I always love using a Silver Lightsaber in one hand and a Cyan in the other.

    And I remember hearing a rumor that you will meet up with revan in the first game, and it would have co-op.
