Did a bunch more KOTOR2 over the weekend. After a pretty slow opening with Peragus into Telos I've now done Nar Shadaa which is where it really started to pick up steam, and I loved the lengthy mission where you end up taking control of a bunch of different party members either on their own or in groups without the protagonist. Why don't more party-based RPGs actually make more use of the party more in this sort of way? It always irks me. "Right lads, I need two of you to come and help me fight the Collectors / Darkspawn / whatever."
"Why don't we all come?"
"Because.... erm, reasons. Shut up."
It also, as I already knew, just has a really interesting cast of characters. I'd love to see something like Darth Nihlus attempted on screen, having something a bit different done with Sith / the Force than just an angry man with a lightsaber. The combat isn't especially engaging but luckily by spamming battle meditation, speed and knight valour I haven't had to worry about it too much.
