Following up a classic is never easy. Just ask George Lucas. Or BioWare for that matter. After the Canadian developer unleashed Star Wars: KOTOR upon us, it wasn't interested in following up with a pure sequel - it left that in Obsidian's more than capable hands. Instead, it turned its attention to an altogether new setting. The result? Its Empire Strikes Back is a sweeping, glorious role-playing game set in mythical China that, aside from delivering like a 24-hour takeaway, more importantly won't alienate fans of the previous effort. So settle down for a tale of intrigue, a long time ago, in a beautiful land far, far away from any space saga...
