I just want to play a good rpg. I've only watched the first one with daisy ridley and honestly I don't care about star wars at all. But u want to play a good rpg and this one gets brought up a lot. Is it worth playing?

I would recommend playing KotOR 1 first though

Yes absolutely. I lost interest in SW after ep8 but this year was craving some KotOR and they both hold up. Get the cut content mod for sure

I'd really recommend playing it on PC. It doesn't take much to run and you can get the Restoration mod which adds a lot.

Not worth

A 15 year old toaster can run it. Get it on PC or skip it IMO

idk, can you stomach something that has starwars puked all over it for the sake of wanting a really old but good RPG?

If the theme was Barney the Dinosaur but was made by Obsidian back in the day, would you still play it?

It hasn't aged well tbqh. It has some very interesting dialogue with certain characters, but the gameplay is janky and unbalanced. Not to mention the unfinished content.

KOTOR2 is in part a deconstruction of Star Wars so it might not be as impactful to people who don't know much about Star Wars. Still a good game though.

You don't need to care about Star Wars. At best, it feels like Star Wars fan fiction. Good games though.

I would say play KOTOR 1 instead, it is a more traditional Star Wars story, but those stories are also a lot easier to follow, the classic light vs dark and good vs evil stuff (or you can choose to be evil and that has a different story).

KOTOR 2 is a lot more ambiguous, and depends a lot more on your personal Star Wars knowledge I think.

I'd recommend KotOR 1 over 2. Play 2 if you like 1. I replayed 1 a few years ago and thought it held up really well. A replay through 2 is still in my backlog. Of course, while 2 is technically a sequel, you do not need to play 1 to understand the story of 2.
Edit: Forgot to mention playing on console is fine. Is PC better from a technical standpoint? Sure, but that is the case 99.99% of the time. Play on what you enjoy playing on.

These. It has one of my favourite stories and is quite philosophical for a SW game. If you like Chris Avellone's work, you'll appreciate Kotor 2 a lot.

But yeah, I still recommend playing Kotor 1 first. It may be a little more traditional in terms of SW story and user friendliness, but Kotor 2 builds up on and refers a lot to characters and events from Kotor 1.
Don't worry, the main story wasn't quite as clich and simpleminded as in the movies.
