Re: KOTOR 2: Now With 20% More Content!

Except that is undermined by the fact that that, regardless of how much you consider what you are doing, it ends badly due to someone else's choices, and you HAVE to go through this scene. Compare it Metro 2033 and Metro Last Light, which have a somewhat similar idea of not simply rushing in blind, ...

Re: KOTOR 2: Now With 20% More Content!

Honestly, while I like the gameplay and a fair amount of the characters, my biggest problem is Kreia (And the relentless, in a number of cases poorly done, deconstruction).

Re: What video games are you playing?

Bloodborne, Deus Ex Humanity Divided, Rune Factory 4, the Telltale Batman Game, and Red Dead Redemption.
