New dialogue, missions and ending content sound like a perfect remedy for these problems. The game sets up a ton of story threads that ultimately don’t pay off, from assassin droid HK-47’s murderous successors, to the gentle engineer Bao-Dur’s horror at his complicity in a war crime. Long-time Star Wars fans are probably aware that KOTOR 2 had a troubled development process, and developer Obsidian had to cut out a lot of content to get the game to ship on time. Otherwise, I will make my most disapproving face at you."Expand your experience even further with this incredible collection of content featuring new crew dialogue and interactions, a bonus mission starring HK-47, and a new revamped ending, coming as free DLC post-launch,” the developer said. It may not sound like much, but just wait until a certain someone questions your every choice all the time forever, regardless of alleged alignment. While Star Wars as a whole trends toward sweeping battles between Obvious Good and Even More Obvious Evil, KOTOR 2 paints in impressively subtle shades of gray. On top of that, the mod fixes "over 500" bugs, because Obsidian, basically.Īnd now, if you need a bit more nudging, I will (without spoilers) put it this way: KOTOR 2 uses KOTOR 1's formula to deconstruct Star Wars and tell a highly entertaining story in the process.
Among other things, the infamous HK (as in, HK-47, the galaxy's most lovable human hater) Factory and the story's intended endings are back in. Just drop that in KOTOR 2's Steam App folder and you should be good to go. Simply go here to download KOTOR 2's restored content mod, which - after three years of painstaking excavation work - is finally complete. So I'm going to show you how to turn it into the game it should've been all along. But that was then, and now - as of today - KOTOR 2's finally on Steam.
Unfortunately, a lot of people skipped it due to BioWare's lack of involvement, bugginess, and an ending that sort of, well, didn't exist. I mean, BioWare's original Death Star laser blast into a rather bland Star Wars gaming scene is a classic for a reason, but KOTOR 2 - for all its flaws - showed sparkling glints of actual brilliance. Vaguely controversial statement time! I far prefer Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2 to KOTOR 1.
