How about the fact that we're not being given the KOTOR: III sequel we were PROMISED.
You know, to wipe the fast out of our mouths from the HORRENDOUS and VILE KOTOR: II: Sith Lords?
This game is such a bitter cop-out for those of us who still count KOTOR as one of the best RPG's we've ever played, and now, we have NO in-game resolution to that story and those characters.
Just a complete and horrible passing of the buck by Bioware, FIRST, to Obsidian, who made a horrible crap game in KOTOR: II, and now, with this bullcrap MMORPG instead of the KOTOR: III sequel EVERYONE wanted!!!
Twi'lek I didn't think KOTOR II was terrible. It was incomplete, certainly, and the story wasn't nearly as engaging as that of its predecessor, but I liked the gameplay just fine. However, I too count myself disappointed that they chose to continue the series as an MMORPG. I'm sure it will be fun, but if I played a game like that, it would consume me. I need an end point.
