Good:
- Story, even some side quests
- Lore is deep and not too overwhelming
- Great music and SFX
- Meaningful choices

Bad:
- Combat
- Final boss/stage
- Reused faces and voices.

About half way through the game I switched to the easiest difficulty to just enjoy the story because the combat is so trash. How do you create an RPG where you are hindering yourself if you do any kind of range build? Just throw double melee and mow everyone down.

The story is pretty cool and something happens in the game that honestly is one of the better reveals in video games. but man that final boss is gutter trash and soured me. You run around a room for 10 minutes smacking the boss and that's it.

Decent 6

Fantastic game, would recommend to anyone who likes a good story with interesting characters and of course, Star Wars. Combat uses DnD mechanics and is flexible with how you play. Even for its age it has great replayability due to its great morality system and your choices mattering a lot.

I finally beat Knights of the Old Republic! It took me over 60 hours because, on one hand, the game has a pretty slow pace, and on the other hand, I have a bad habit of reloading way too often just to see different dialogue outcomes, gather an insignificant piece of loot, or redo a choice. I really wish I had discovered the speed ability earlier—it would have made traveling through Taris and the wastelands of Tatooine/Dantooine SO much better *sigh*.

While the game does show its age in some ways (THE QUEST/ITEM MENUS ARE HORRIBLE and there’s so much empty space to walk through), it still manages to capture the Star Wars vibe incredibly well. I loved the music, cutscenes, aliens, and the joy of exploring a new planet.

I also loved how the planets change throughout the story — inhabitants comment on things you did on other planets or quests (like winning the swoop races, for example), you can start a revolution, get kicked off a planet, planets get destroyed and more. There were some very funny ways to die, too.
While the main story and quests were generally simple, the game had some gems along the way. I liked the twist of the main character actually being Revan, plus all the subtle hints building up to it.

My favorite planet was Manaan—it was such a great contrast to Dantooine and Tatooine, and felt truly unique. The conflict over Kolto and Manaan's neutral stance were super interesting, and the tension/forced truce between the Sith and the Republic led to some great interactions. You have to go to court several times, there’s a murder mystery (with a disappointing reveal, but an interesting moral dilemma), you get to infiltrate and destroy a Sith base, and the underwater station quest was surprisingly creepy and cool.

Korriban was awesome too. The Sith Academy made for a memorable setting, especially for a Jedi fully committed to the light side. How do you gain prestige without earning dark side points? Who do you trust? Should you betray the headmaster or not? Can you risk doing good deeds without getting caught? In-game the quests might be a bit more linear in reality, but the game succeeded in making me feel like I had to consider all these points and more.

Taris was nice enough; Tatooine had a fun city and an interesting quest line (earning the favor of the Sand People tribe); Dantooine and Kashyyk had their moments, but were pretty boring over all; lastly Lehon (the last planet) and the Star Forge were both rather disappointing. By then, the game had gone on for so long that I was ready to wrap up the story, but nope—they had to throw another pointless planet in my way, full of useless fights and other time-wasters.

The game has great replay value in theory, and I’m curious to see how everything would change in a dark side playthrough. The urge to discover different outcomes was already strong during my first playthrough, and some of the dark side dialogue options were either hilarious or cartoonishly evil. The dark side had lots of great snarky dialogue choices in general.

Lastly, here are my thoughts on the companions ranked from favorite to least favorite:

S-Tier:
Bastila was amazing! She was not at all what I expected from a Jedi companion, and I loved her hot-headed, arrogant, headstrong attitude. It’s great how integral she is to the story and how your alignment to the dark or light side actually plays a role in her story.
HK-47 was great—why are droid characters in Star Wars always so good!? He’s 10/10—I'm a big fan of his sass and eagerness to brutally murder every inferior meatbag in the room.
I love Juhani, and I’m surprised by how ahead of her time she was. We get a non-conventionally attractive female companion who’s a lesbian and a strong fighter? I adored her voice and her story too! I also romanced her <3.

A-Tier:
I got Jolee pretty late in the story, but I liked him a lot. I loved his slightly annoyed, sassy, morally gray, old-man, former Jedi attitude. His stories and dialogues were very interesting too.
Carth was fine, very vanilla. He reminded me a bit of Starlord or a prototype for Alistair from Dragon Age. He got on my nerves sometimes, but in the end, he was nice enough (minus the awkward flirting).

B-Tier:
Mission was very adorable and likeable. She did not leave a huge impression on me, but I liked hanging out with her.

C-Tier:
Canderous was okay, I guess? I found most of his stories and opinions rather tedious, to be honest.
Zaalbar was fine. His role on Kashyyk was interesting, but besides that, he doesn’t add much. I hate that we can’t befriend him and that he never opens up at any point in the story.
T3-M4 was an adorable little fellow, but not very interesting, unfortunately.

Mass effect 1 is one of my favorite and best games of all time, in my opinion. I love almost everything about it, most of all the story and just the dated "bioware feel" which only the first game seems to have. Despite coming first, Kotor had big shoes to fill in my book, especially after playing a litteney of other star wars games, and being told on repeat that this one is "the best." After playing it, I can officially say that this probably is the best star wars game I've played yet, and while I don't think it completely lives up to mass effect, it does get a hell of a lot right, and gets pretty darn close.

Going back to that bioware feel I mentioned earlier, this game has that in droves, just as much as the first mass effect did. After playing 10 plus star wars games pretty much in a row, you could say I've been getting tired of the IP, especially because I'm not exactly a huge star wars fan anyway. This game takes a new approach however, being set thousands of years before the movies, which helps disconnect the game from much of the source material. Not only does this game not even really feel like a star wars game, but it also allows it to take risks, by creating entirely new characters, locations and lore. This all led me to loving the world and lore of this game, and I think that every single new idea that is presented in this game is fantastic.

The star forge and star maps especially are great, and I love the central mystery throughout. I love Malak and Reven, I love bastilla and I love the main character. The story takes so many fantastic twists and turns, especially in the few set piece moments such as the ending planet or the leviathan mission. The story and characters here easily take the cake for any star wars media, becoming the best of the best and the golden standard for the franchise... with one major problem. The pacing in this game is very very very slow. I wouldn't say its terrible, especially if you like doing side quests and stuff, however if you mainline the story like me, it really does take a very long time for anything to happen. Id say that about the first third of the game is literally just set up, and the actual plot and goal of the game doesn't start until the end of the 2nd planet. I do enjoy the little foreshadowing and character moments before the first star map is discovered, however I found myself really bored for the first couple hours. Id also argue that each of the 4 planets stories are not as good as the planets stories were in mass effect, besides the mannan planet which was fantastic. While this game is very similar to the story of mass effect in a lot of ways, even down to the structure of the story, it really takes its time setting things up, leading it to being like almost 7 hours longer than mass effect 1.

The gameplay in this game however, is pretty similar to mass effect and other RPGs such as fallout. The game uses the typical buildcrafting and dialogue system as other RPGs, and I while I found a lot of the dialogue in this game to be very binary, I think its all very well written and interesting. The locations in this game are all fantastic looking, and I really did love looking around each planet. This game is a turn based RPG, and while at first I wasn't a huge fan of it, towards the end of the game once I had fully built out my character I grew quite fond of it. The combat can get a little tedious and boring however, especially in the last area of the game where you are swarmed with an unusual amount of enemies. I do think one big problem with the combat however is that there really is a steep learning curve, because there are just so many skills and mechanics that you have to learn to really take full advantage of the combat and I think the game could use some streamlining in that area.

I think the game could really use a lot of streamlining and modernization overall. The quest tab and really just all the menus need updating to a modern standard. My best friend actually tried to play this game a while ago, but quit on the first planet because he had no idea what he was supposed to do or where he was supposed to go, and the quest tab didn't really give that much of a lead either. I actually ran into the same problem, however I was able to stick through it. I will admit that once I got used to how the quest hints were given out, I really didn't see that much of a problem with it, however I think that its just another thing to learn that would be a barrier to entry to new players. Thats why, while I did really enjoy this game, I think a remake would just be necessary and the way to go. It would help get rid of all the old and outdated game design artifacts, while also updating a lot of other things (such as the cutscenes, dialogue and gameplay) to a modern standard. I think if the KOTOR remake actually does release one day, a lot of people will finally get to experience this great game. While I do love this game and recommend it, we need a remake.

Knights of the Old Republic is one of the best RPGs ever made. The story is set thousands of years before the movies, so while you're still definitely in the Star Wars universe, the experience is new and refreshing.

BioWare are of course famous for their storytelling, and they do a great job here with light vs. dark side choices that influence both the story and your character's abilities.

Can be tricky to get working on modern systems, but there are plenty of how-to's and mods out there that will smooth the experience, so I urge you to persevere and enjoy a real classic.

Product of its time. You can tell it's Bioware game if you have played mass effect. Had a lot of technical issues such as the resolution, bugs, and game crashing. Gameplay is simple but varies through different playthroughs. Story was alright but predictable. The saving grace of this game is the lore. I wouldn't play this game again, maybe if they remade it. I don't think I can recommend anyone this game, it has to have someones unique taste to it; old and Star Wars.

Even more than two decades after its release, Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic stands tall as one of BioWare's greatest achievements, perhaps even their greatest not named Mass Effect 2. The Star Wars license pulls some weight for fans of the franchise, but even without that, the choice-driven design shines in nearly every aspect of the game other than the heavy handed and combat-heavy final hour. BioWare has never been known for crafting great video game endings and that holds true here. But when the journey to get there is as engrossing as this one, it's hard not to fall in love with Knights of the Old Republic anytime you get a hankering for some role playing in that galaxy so far away that we love so much.

I thought long and hard about whether to give it a "3" or a "4". The plot is great, everything else is not so good. Everything about the gameplay and everything that makes up a video game is done far from the best here. Usually some questionable elements end up coming together in a finished puzzle, revealing their essence in tandem with other equally questionable elements. But not in this game, everything here fails both individually and as a finished picture. The progression is unclear and not well designed, the battles are boring and monotypical, the choice in dialogues either does not affect anything, or is limited to black and white options (so hyperbolized). The only thing that is done in this game at a decent level is the lore, which pulls all the interest of the plot (well, there are a couple of twists, yes, also affects). Bottom line, as a game Kotor doesn't deserve much attention (especially because of the length, I went through it in 35 hours), but the story here is probably worth exploring for every fan of Star Wars.

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic
• First time playing
• A Classic not only for the developers, Bioware, and for Star Wars games, but for PC games in general
• Every year, I tend to pick out one long RPG that’ll take a good part of the year to play and finish
• In 2020, in was Fallout: New Vegas. In 2021, it was Deus Ex. In 2022, it was Morrowind. This year, I felt that it was Bioware’s turn
• I picked up Knights of the Old Republic, or KOTOR, way back in 2010. When my hometown just got a Walmart, there was a 5 pack of “Star Wars Best of PC”
• I purchased it because it had a PC version of Stars Wars Battlefront, one of my favorite PS2 games as a kid
• Having a PC copy of Battlefront, along with 4 other games, seemed like a good deal for a teen with only so much pocket money
• I did try out the other games in the collection, but mostly stuck to Battlefront
• Star Wars Empire at War I played for a few hours but after playing as the Emperor, inexplicably finding Mon Mothma, blowing her up and instantly winning I lost interest
• I also tried Republic Commandos, but that’s a discussion for another essay
• There was also Star Wars Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast. Of course, I didn’t play the first games, Dark Forces and Jedi Knight, so I didn’t bother
• So all that was left was KOTOR, which I did play until I ran into a wall. Enemies were destroying me in every fight I was getting into so I didn’t get very far. I didn’t even leave the first planet
• Either I didn’t understand the character creation and screwed my stats or I plainly just didn’t understand the gameplay, so I dropped it
• Over the years, I’ve now played some later Bioware games. I have played through Dragon Age: Origins and the opening levels of Mass Effect and Dragon Age: Inquisition
• I have a number of Bioware games in my backlog, so I figured I would start with the game that gave them the reputation as a quality developer
• True to the title, KOTOR takes place 4,000 years before the event of any of the Star Wars movies
• One would wonder why everything looks exactly the same. 4,000 years ago in the real world, the pyramids were only just being built in Egypt
• I kind of pulls back of curtain on the truth of the matter. Star Wars is a brand that can’t change or evolve in fear of aliening mass audiences
• I would be fascinating to see an ancient version of this world and see how it organically grew into the future of the movies, but no. Star Wars still needs star ships, blasters and lightsabers
• It’s not a huge problem and there are some more primitive examples, like swords, but it is disappointing. Not a missed opportunity because Bioware most likely hand their hands tied

Game was good, but has definitely aged. There were a couple parts that were insanely difficult on Normal difficulty and forced a better understanding of game mechanics and class usage. All in all, a solid story and worth the playthrough. Would like to replay it for a different ending and more character relationships later on.

I know this is considered one of the greatest Star Wars games of all time, if not the best, but the RPG elements were not done well. Progression is too difficult. Having to save every 10 minutes is a nuisance. Story is a 10/10! Gameplay though is not very entertaining. My was my second play through, first being on PC back when it came out. Unless you have a lot of time to commit, just access the cheat menu and load up your skills/powers/feats.

Foram mais de 36-40horas de jogo e que horas maravilhosas! O jogo é um pouco datado obviamente, foi lançado em 2003, mas isso não é um impecilio para que ele se torne um puta jogo, a questão dos dialogos e escolhas são bem legais, os tripulantes da sua nave são bem legais também ( te amo canderous).

Nota- 8,8 ( Para mim muito melhor que o 2 jogo)

70%Nintendo Switch

Captures the spirit of the original trilogy with the same feeling of a planet-hopping odyssey: jedi rise to power, political intrigue, wacky alien characters and varied worlds.

Switch port feels low-effort. Bugs such as: music disappearing, multiple crashes at critical junctures, inconsistent texture quality on characters, one soft lock. Also, saving takes two loading screens. It does have a cheat menu to level your character or give yourself force powers early.

+ The sweet Jeremy Soule soundtrack along with the John Williams orchestral classics really carry the gravitas
+ Fun classic dungeon crawling
+ Real choices in a solid story
+ Takeoff/landing cinematics are still great

- The first two planets can be a slog
- Combat is boring and not strategic until you get a lot of force powers
- Tons of dialog that can feel pointless if you're not into the lore
- Untelegraphed instadeath mission design at points
- Sith choices feel more like the d*** side rather than the dark side
- Final dungeon is bad

The best star wars story out there and one of the best I've had in gaming. The characters are very lovable and charming. The fact that you are able to choose between dark side and light side is very fun and opens tons of posibilities. I love the ost in this game. If feels iconic in some way and, even if the graphics come from an original xbox, there are some beautiful sceneries accompanied with ost that makes some places magical and a pleasure to see (I'm talking about Manaan of course). The lore is amazing too. There are a lot of extra lore and facts that you can check about planets, places and characters that are not necessary in any way, but makes the experience more complete. As a very dedicated Star Wars fan, I love having this little pieces of lore that overrall create a whole universe that feels alive. All and all, this is a brilliant game that deserves more recognition, even if it may feel like it hasn't age that well in some aspects.

The only real big issue I have with this game is the optimization for newer platforms. I played the PC version on Steam and I have to say it's hideous. There are tons of bugs and optimization issues that makes the game simply unplayable. I had to constantly check on various forums to find a fix for a ton of bugs, and it really cut the experience for me (thank god a remake is coming).

With all of this being said, this may be the best star wars game out there, and I can confidently say that it's my favorite star wars game out of the ones I've played.

One of the best games every made. A fantastic RPG with great story, characters, writing, voice acting. Very fun to explore the planets and discover the lore of the areas. Incredible music, fun character building. A very good amount of varied quests with excellent dialogue.

One of the most important features in the game is the alignment system where you can align towards the light side or the dark side. This makes the game have great replayability where you can discover different choices and outcomes for every quest. This also greatly affects the ending.

Wow. I was not expecting this one to be as good
as it was. It's almost 20 years old but still holds
up excellently to this day. The graphics definitely
show their age but it runs very well on Switch.
The storytelling, RPG mechanics, and OST are
fantastic. I wish the auto-save feature was a
little better. But I can't see a remake with some
quality of life improvements scoring any lower
than 10/10. Absolute gem. Finished a light side
playthrough and I'll hopefully get around to
messing around with the dark side of the Force
later on. Easy recommendation if you love Star
Wars or RPGs.

Fantastic game. Incredible in nearly every way. The story was awesome and had a really great twist that actually caught me off guard. Most of your companions are somewhat interesting but ultimately, in my opinion, forgettable.
What really got me hooked throughout this game is how much it felt like a TTRPG experience. From the combat to the quest design, it felt really similar to gaming at the table. I enjoyed it. I get why some people might not enjoy it as much as someone like me but if you ever wondered what it would be like to play Star Wars using a ruleset similar to D&D, then look no further than the phenomenal Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic.

Классная рпг своего времени, особенно по вселенной звездных войн, особенно по неканоничной вселенной старой республики за тысячи лет от экранизаций. Потрясающий сюжет, возможность нелинейного прохождения квестов, выбор темной или светлой стороны силы, выбор кем ты хочешь играть стрелком или бойцом ближнего боя, далее становление джедаем и все равно есть выбор каким именно джедаем ты хочешь стать, тем кто опирается на силу, или больше на владение световым мечом. Правда когда я проходил было несколько багов из-за которых играть было как минимум трудно. Помню на Кашиике не было то ли перевода квестов то ли вообще текст квестов не отображался корректно и приходилось гадать что же требует от нас игра.

75%Nintendo Switch

The first video game role playing adaptation of star wars, Knights of the Old Republic makes you feel like you are in an interactive Star Wars short film with a solid story, and vast array of alien characters and planets involved with the star wars universe.

KOTOR begins with your character (which is custom made) waking up on a ship that is under attack from the Sith, who are after a Jedi on the ship named Bastila. The ship eventually crashes on the nearby planet of Taris, which leads to your character and another character named Carth on a search for Bastila. The story starts off simple enough, but actually develops into a grander tale with some real surprise moments, and a big plot twist that I honestly never saw coming. To compliment the story is a wide cast of characters, each loaded with some really good dialogue with very solid voice acting for the time. A particular character HK-47, has some of the best dialogue in the game, and I had some laugh out loud moments with things that the character said.

Combat in this game is real time with pause, which allows you to pause any moment and select actions for either you or your party members. Combat is very reliant on behind the scenes dice rolls, which dictate if and how much you will hit for when attacking. Generally I was quite happy with the combat, and there are plenty of different combat builds to approach the game with, although toward the end of the game using a light saber unfortunately becomes almost necessary to have a chance against all the other light saber enemies that are at the end of the game.

The biggest negative about this game however, is the load of bugs that are in this game. I am not sure if some of these are due to being a port on the Switch, or if they were present originally, but the sheer amount of bugs I encountered was pretty staggering. The bugs range from amusing, to slightly annoying, to very detrimental. Some of the worst bugs were moments where you were underwater and had to kill sharks with a sonic wave that would cause your character to stop moving after using the item. I had to reload a save file during that section many times. It was very frustrating and really made that section a pain to deal with.

Outside of the bugs though, the game is really fun. It plays heavily on its license and does it justice, every bit of the game feels like something you would encounter in the Star Wars world, and big fans of the movies will definitely enjoy these touches that are in the game. The combat is good, and the story and characters are mostly great, and for an RPG, that is one of the biggest things you could want from a roleplaying game. It just a shame the bugs drag down the overall experience.

Pros:

+ Utilizes the Star Wars license fantastically, and pulls from many of the planets and races present in the films/books
+ Extremely well written characters, with one in particular having hilarious dialogue that had me rolling
+ Story is quite good with a plot twist that completely caught me off guard
+ A good/evil system that is reflected by the light/dark side which affects nearly every action in the game

Cons:

- The game starts off a little slow with the planet Taris being mostly an uninteresting and linear place to explore
- Not very many unique character models in the game resulting in many of the NPC's looking the same
- Toward the end of the game using a light saber almost becomes mandatory when facing the many light saber wielding enemies
- The large amount of bugs in the game really hampered the experience. Especially a couple that would force me to reload a save file

The " Evil " path is wild. Even though the game pushes you towards the Light side, i feel like the Dark side is way more entertaining to play through, with an extremely memorable ending sequence. I mean, holy moley, you can be the biggest scumbag in the galaxy.

But the main reason not to sleep on this game is the fact that modern game developers will never even attempt to create something this controversial. For example, Mass Effect 4 Andromeda doesn't even have the dialogue options that might hurt NPCs feelings. Because hurting people's feelings is bad ! In a videogame !

Слабая боёвка. Нет экшена и драйва из Jedi Knight, нет вариативности и обилия тактических возможностей, как в других играх схожего жанра. В сражениях очень много рандома, поэтому многие бои сводятся к гринду через квиклоад, в ожидании прока. Абсурдная система репутации. За колкую шутку в диалоге могут дать очки Ситха, а за спасение целой деревни не дадут очки Джедая. Хорошо раскрывается лор ЗВ, даже для тех, кто далёк от вселенной. Графика может приятно удивить. Локации маленькие и коридорные, но ощущаются масштабными.

Побегать по городам, пообщаться с НПС — интересно. Драться с мобами — больно.

Star Wars KOTOR is an incredible and deep RPG. While sometimes the dialog trees can be a little frustrating (and the choices of being a good guy or bad guy feels like being almost too nice or almost too evil) the overall story and gameplay kept me very invested the entire playthrough. The combat (while functional) felt a little slow and frustrating especially with all the misses. I will definitely be replaying the game now since I choose to be a scout with going the way of the good character, I do want to see what else happens if I choose the more evil options. Definitely recommend this game for the story alone!!

This game is such a masterpiece on literally every level. The way that this game expands and enhances the Star Wars universe is just beautiful. KotoR did an amazing job of portraying a whole new era in Star Wars (The Old Republic Era), that every Star Wars fan should experience. I personally hope Disney decides to explore this very era furthermore in the future. I love KotoR and would always recommend it for any Star Wars fan!

Picking up Knights of the Old Republic is absolutely still worth your time and money in 2022. There’s an engaging story with a timeless focus on good versus evil, and mechanics that allow you to choose your own destiny – something that modern-day players still absolutely love. The audience shouldn’t be limited to Star Wars fans either, with KOTOR standing out as a fantastic RPG experience regardless of setting. Sure, the graphics and menus haven’t aged well, but that’s entirely moot when you consider just how enjoyable this game is to play. Like rewatching the original Star Wars trilogy today, forget your seamless CGI effects and high definition screen for a few hours and enjoy KOTOR for what it is – you’ll have a fantastic experience that leaves a seriously lasting impression.

Fantastic game that sets the standard of what an RPG can be. Seriously just wow. The story takes familiar star wars concepts and shifts them enough to feel completely fresh. I personally love the turn-based d20 combat though I know that can be too slow-paced for some. Overall though this game is a great ride from beginning to end and probably Bioware's best work.

I imagine that the game was amazing when it was first released but now, even if you put aside the very outdated mechanics, the story has simply been over hyped... I was expecting and incredible story that really make you feel apart of the star wars universe but it was actually very linear.
