However, despite the aforementioned complaints, I still must conclude that Knights of the Old Republic II – The Sith Lords is a masterpiece. It is more than a worthy successor to the original game, and it continues the strong tradition that Bioware started with an epic space opera of morality and thought provoking decisions that affect the lives of both individuals and entire cultures. The Knights of the Old Republic series may someday become a rehashed cash-in that attempts to continue riding the coat tails of its successful forefathers to market success, but today is not that day. Knights of the Old Republic II – The Sith Lords is one of the best games of 2005.
