Ladies and gentleman, fortunately we are at that time of the week again, Happy Friday!!!

So after 37 hours and many a chuckle, I finally finished Knights of the Old Republic 2. I plan on doing a proper review at some stage but for now, let me say that it was extremely enjoyable with some fantastic writing start to finish.

I understand people not liking the combat but if you can get past that, the story is magnificant. It may just be my favourite Star Wars story full stop; full of mature themes and interesting moral decisions. Obsidian are truly amazing.

Anyway, it being the weekend and all, it's time for me to grab my heels and wet my whistle.

Have a great weekend everyone.

Later!

like I've said before KOTOR 2 is my favorite game of all time.  I'm glad u enjoyed it.  It's really kind of a miracle.  I love Obsidian too.

I started Fallout: New Vegas for the first time a few months back and it looks to have the same great sense of humor. I'm only about 90 mins in but i'll definitely play more if I can optimize in on my (not so high spec'd) computer

What is the combat like exactly, and you're about to do what with your whistle?

Haha wetting my whistle with whiskey (say that 10 times fast) on a Friday night.

Combat is similar to Dragon Age if you ever played it. It's half real time, half turn based. You line up the attacks/powers you want the character you're controlling to make and they make them in order.You only control one character at a time in combat with the remaining being controlled by AI (up to a team of three). You are able to set how they act however (i.e.are the attack minded or support, etc.). I have good time for the combat in all honesty. If I remember correctly, Jade Empires is similar also.

Congrats! I haven't played the game myself, but I've read a lot of good things about it. Maybe when I'm not swamped with stuff and have some spare cash I'll try it out.

I think I got it for $5 or so during a Steam sale. More than worth it.

I think that's what's going to ruin the game for me if I ever get to it. Combat I didn't fully click with in the first game, I hope it isn't like that with the seconde game.

Combat is very similar (if not exactly the same) in KOTOR2 as it was in KOTOR. If you can get past it though, there's amazing characters, stories & worlds to experience
