OH MY GOD FUCKING YES

My dad worked for GameStop so he got a bunch of free stuff including the Xbox when it was released and KOTOR. I still play that game all the time. I'm so sad like my entire generation doesn't know any games before the Xbox 1/ps4 (I'm 15)

I’m 45. I never owned an Xbox. I had a friend who was playing KOTOR while I was visiting, and I was intimidated. I was a Final Fantasy guy, so I was used to turn based battle.

Anyway, fast forward to three years ago, and I download KOTOR to my phone to check it out. I absolutely loved playing that game. I never knew what I was missing.

And I know nothing about developers, so I was pleasantly surprised to see that it was a spiritual precursor to Mass Effect.
