It might be the best 80% of any classical CRPG of that era it’s certainly the best 80% of any Star Wars game then or now. KOTOR II was made by Obsidian Entertainment, and is one of the bigger “one that got away” stories of its time: a brilliant licensed property CRPG that sought to undermine and dissect all the core themes of the IP thanks to lenient oversight and, frankly put, no Disney undertakers wandering around and destroying any hint of a creative spark in the project…that also hit the market maybe 80% complete.Īnd it’s a fantastic 80%. It is without question in my mind superior to the original, more successful title, which was done by BioWare and was one of the feathers in that studio’s cap leading to the studio’s purchase by Electronic Arts in 2007 and subsequent long and slow decline. Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords is on the Nintendo Switch, thanks to a port from Aspyr! This game was originally released in December 2004 after a brutally abbreviated development cycle. It’s a good game, but I can’t recommend you buy it.
