This game, while dated compared to the likes of the Mass Effect Trilogy, is still the definitive BioWare experience. While some people will say it's Mass Effect, Jade Empire, Balder's Gate 1/2, or Dragon Age, KOTOR is still by far the best product they've ever put out in the world. If you haven't played this game, and you've been able to stay away from spoilers, you should absolutely play this. There are some easy mods to download on nexus to get it running on modern machines. Since I have downloaded them, I am running this with HD textures, character models, and backgrounds, while also playing it on an 45in Ultrawide monitor without stretching or distortion. You can play this and still get what you paid for your modern systems to do while also getting to experience of playing this game and being blown away by its terrific story.

Edit for the mods: this is for the Utrawide Mod, but honestly, it would prob be better than the OG HUD anyway ( https://deadlystream.com/files/file/2288-kotor-3440x1440-enhanced-hudui-and-menus/ )

This is for the 1.2 Restoration Mod that brings back scrapped content: ( https://www.nexusmods.com/kotor/mods/54 )

This is for the character overhaul: ( https://www.nexusmods.com/kotor/mods/1282 )

Hope this helps you play this to it's maximum potential.

Never a big Star Wars fan and never play this before
Bought and play this solely for the RPG and I got what I want
Its really depend on what you looking to play and I think this is a good RPG for a game released on 2003 in my opinion.

Best Game Ever
