Knights of the Old Republic II is the second installment in the KOTOR series yet lacks a bit more than the original KOTOR. When I see a sequel, I expect it to be better than the first, not reversed. KOTOR II was not made by the same company, Bioware, and instead was passed down to another, Obsidian. Obsidian found it right to rush KOTOR II in time for Christmas instead of making it perfect before release. Major story line parts were cut from the game just so Obsidian could get into the thick of things and sell more. The storyline for KOTOR II is much more diverse than KOTOR. They are rarely connected with each other but there are a few returning characters to KOTOR II. I found a few minor bugs but it mostly played swimmingly and smooth. Altogether, a great play, minor bugs from time to time, worth your money.
