KOTOR 1 vs KOTOR 2

[Teagon]

Well, after years I finally get both of this games I now crying why I didnt play it sooner. After 40+ hours in KOTOR 1 i already can say that this is one of best (if not best) RPG i ever played. But i wanna know if I can look foward with such optimism to KOTOR 2. Yea I head about that controversy about buggy and unfinished launch of game but as i hear there is also one big famous mod called restored content which should fix game and add content. But overall from 2014 view are this games both superb with same epic story, locations, quest or one of them is better in some ways ? Well KOTOR 1 had 93 Metacritic score and Kotor 2 had just 85 but I thing that coz bugs and maybe lack of new ideas but I dont care about that when playing 2005 game. Thx for all comments

EDIT: And please... without spoilers... thx

I should say that TOR is sort of like a mesh of 'Return of the Jedi' and all the other movies. It actually is a great game that honors the stories of KOTOR 1 and KOTOR 2.

You think so ? I dont know, I am not big fan of MMORPG games, not coz i dont like the idea of this type of games but i think its mostly dummy and stupid without big attention to story part. I heard that TORs big advantage is story but I am skeptic about that and also even i dont think we can call it KOTOR 3 also as you cant call TESO a TES: VI (but teso isnt good mmorpg at all) u think its worth to download that 25GB ? Best F2P MMORPG ?

TOR does a really good job with being story based and having a lot of replayability, each class has their own interesting story with the same ability to choose between good and evil actions, regardless of which side you choose, and those choices do have some effect on the story, although not as much due to the fact that it's an MMO. They even do a good job of incorporating the events of KOTOR I and II, even going so far as to finish Revan's story and bring back two characters from the KOTOR games in one of the group based missions. I would definitely recommend playing it however, I would also suggest that you at least spend enough money to become premium (I believe it's $5 spent to become a premium member) because f2p have quite a few restrictions placed on them which can detract from the gameplay, these restrictions include not having access to the best equipment, limited crafting ability, fewer quick slot bars, limited access to group missions and pvp, and a currency cap. If you're playing purely for the story though these are easy to move past and will only be a minor inconvenience. All in all I would say it's a good game that's worth playing although it definitely has it's problems but for those who love a good story it's easy to over look, the only part so far that I can genuinely say I'm displeased with and that I would not recommend as a purchase was the first "expansion" which added very little in terms of story and failed to continue with a separate story line for each class, instead opting to have one story line for each faction which, although the added story was interesting, was not worth the money. Also, if you ever want to play a f2p MMO that is all around good and has a great story I'd suggest playing Lord of the Rings Online, the only restrictions f2p members have is a reduced currency cap that can be removed without having to pay any money, limited access to questing areas that can also be removed without spending any money, and limited pvp access that's gradually becoming less strict. The only problem is that, in order to not spend money on the aforementioned restrictions is that it requires a lot grinding although going with either the grinding method or just flat out paying money are both worth it.

I personally prefer KOTOR 1, but both games are fantastic. I like KOTOR 1 more because it seemed like the story was much longer than that of KOTOR 2

Kotor 2 is better.

To me it had alot of cliffhangers.

Both KOTOR's were enjoyable games to play, but as much as I loved KOTOR 2 I always disliked how so much content was cut due to Obsidion having to rush the game out.
