I found Kreia’s “nuance” tedious. I help someone and she’s all “but if you force them to help themselves they’ll be stronger”. Shut up space Ayn Rand
I mean, she’s literally the baddie. She ends up just being another egotistical Sith with a penchant for sophistry.
If anything, she should have taught players that the whole Grey Jedi concept is a bullshit con to lure people to the Dark Side. You don’t get to trade Good Boy Points from feeding orphans for a murder or two of Bad Guy Points to stay “neutral.”
Kotor 1 has both better characters and better strorytelling. The gameplay additions in K2 were pretty dope thigh.
Also the high point of my interest in Star Wars in general. I lost all interest when they deleted the canon and then went full coward-mode with the sequels’ story. There were so many better stories to tell then the same shit all over again
Honestly, I always thought Star Wars would work as a Tales From the Crypt-style anthology, just pump out interesting happenings from across the galaxy as self-contained, 40-minute long episodes and put the meat on them massive bones! I bet one could pull off at least 3-4 12-episode series without even touching The Force.
Star Wars is at it’s best when it gets away from the godamn Skywalkers.
