I'm a huge fan of the KOTOR games and recently picked up KOTOR 1 and am in the middle of playing it again. I'm glad your video showed up on my suggested list (probably because I've been youtubing videos on the game). It's kind of funny because coming towards the end of the video I realized that this project must've taken you a long time to produce: the edits, the monologue, and sure enough as soon as I thought it, I got to the part of your video where you mention this, haha. I of course liked your video very much and subscribed to your channel and am looking forward to future content on KOTOR.

My unpopular opinion is Taris is the best part if Kotor. The planet with the most depth and most well thought out characters and storylines, I think the story was at its best when you were just some guy, not the saviour of the galaxy, just some guy skulking around trying to avoid getting captured by the guys who blew your ship up.

Yo really appreciate what you going man keep up the work

I played this game from a blockbuster when I was 8 years old for roughly 2 hours before getting confused and burnt out. Fast forward to after playing DOS and BG3 I came back to this game and realized it had similar rules (imagine that) and suddenly everything clicked and made more sense on how to play. Now I’m having a ton of fun and I wish I understood this game a kid

As for lightsaber throwing, that actually has precedent, in the OT out of all places! In the fight of Darth Vader and Luke, Vader throws his lightsaber. But it's not a double one, so there's that.

The "most popular" female portrait you show doesn't line up with the statistic you present immediately after! :D

Kudos man, I love this game and Kotor 2 to death, this was such an amazing video with a lot of interesting insight. Taris doesn't deserve even a fraction of the hate it gets, I'm really looking forward to the next vid!

I understand that kotor is built on the same bioware engine they made neverwinter nights on but there is in fact a star wars d20 system and while comparable to D&D 3rd edition the system has drastic differences. I really wish people would acknowledge this.

what an amazing video ! i always end up replaying the games every few years !!

In regards to your criticism of the undercity and saying that while quest line is out of place for Star Wars, it’s actually quite the opposite. Star Wars isn’t really traditional Science Fiction, it’s Science Fiction Fantasy, the Jedi are space wizards and the idea of the force itself is a form of magic if you really think about it. That’s something people always overlook that Star Wars as an IP isn’t really sci-fi like something like Star Trek or movies like Ex Machina are. Those are examples of IPs that are actually Sci-fi. If you delve into the lore of Star Wars beyond this game you’d see that it’s a common sentiment. The Yuuzhan Vong are referenced in this game too and cancerous speaks about it like its myth/legend and something beyond their understanding, that kinda of theme comes up pretty frequently. Same thing with terentateks, somewhat of myth until you encounter them in the game

Please make part 2! Thoroughly enjoyed this.

Taris is great, excellent arguments and conclusion section

making my way through your video, big fan, excited to see the next one!

I really enjoyed this analysis. I haven't played KOTOR in so many years, and it was so fun coming back to this. I didn't know Taris was hated so much, I really enjoyed it. I look forward to part 2!

Please make a part 2 this is the best kotor video on youtube

20:35 NWN before KOTOR does the same, using the same engine even

16:58 Shots fired!

Keep up the good work sir

what is the crpg that shows clips with magister ricks?

Taris is good, only really tedious and frustrating if you are a literal child (me when kotor came out) or you are doing a scout level 2 run.

Taris may be bad because I played KOTOR thrice But at least that thing is better than Manaan

Fun Fact: In Star Wars: The Old Republic, the MMO from 2011, you discover Trask was from House Ulgo of Alderaan, one of the royal families. There's even a mission on Alderaan dedicated to the retrieval of Darth Bandon's head which is to be kept in possession of House Ulgo in Trask's memory. Writing this comment before I'm finished, but really love the video so far :)

Scantily clad lady locked in a cage? Are you Amish or something? "Oh my god, she's wearing a tank top and pants! How scandalous!? I thought this was a family friendly game and here they are showing a woman's bare shoulders! Shoulders!!!"

You think the guy in the lower cantina cheats? All of pazaak is a cheat because the player always has to go first. KOTOR 2 even has Atton make a joke about it. The only way to win is to buy all the best cards and save scum. I'm pretty sure the devs even tried to tell you that by having the guy in the upper cantina call you a cheater if save scum enough to take all his money, having the guy in the lower cantina tell you he'll always play you, and never having anyone else in the game call you on cheating when you defy all probability to win a bunch of games in a row. That's the "finer points of the game" that the guy in the lower cantina was talking about.

The point that you make that the developers should have noted that melee weapons are better than ranged hits hard. I remember when I first was playing this game when I was 10 years old and wanting to use guns. I kept dying in the underground area on Taris and quit playing it for a few years. I finally came back to it and it became one of my favorite games.

I'm still making part 2. There's updates on the community tab of my profile. It's taking longer than anticipated, but it's a passion project so the only thing driving its release is because I want to do it.

Are you gonna make a part 2?

Damn 1 year ago and no episode 2 😢 just stumbled across this lovely narrative piece

Finally, someone who agrees about how bland the killer was. A whole lot of talking and not much else.

Endar Spire followed by Taris might be my favourite levels in any game, let alone Star Wars. Spent so much time replaying Endar Spire hoping that the Jedi or Sith would drop a saber haha

Finally, i still kept rewind the golden day oscar award...

kotor 1 and 2 are both on IOS, including the yavin station dlc.

Honestly The Raid would be a sick video game

I joined from your kotor video! But I really enjoyed this perspective and will definitely check out your other reviews. I watched Zone of Interest based on this video. What a masterclass in tonal control! Thanks for the great work

Taris is one of the most fun parts of the game

Welcome to the long form video analysis gang ill be watching this video every 3 months until I'm dead, appreciate it😂

So much advise for a KOTOR remake that's not happening currently.

I ALWAYS do everything on Taris. Even the promise land story lol

18:42 Trask seems like a cool character, I hope we see more of him

the final fantasy 10 blitz ball game was so cool, i got to a point where i was playing that for so long i forgot what i was doing in the main story.

i wouldn't get rid of the underworld but make it better, there's just a lot of repetition. maybe add some interesting scenes or shorten it, i don't hate it like other people

Great video and a badass movie

Casually listened as I played kotor 2. I was sad to see this was as far as you've gotten. I look forward to listening to the other planets. As for taris it doesn't deserve the hate. I've never disliked it. I thought it was a slog, sure. And you've brought up great ways to fix the issues. Really hope you continue and finish the Gane as a whole.
