Leave a Review Star Wars™
Five star failure!!
Who wants to spend all this money and time on something just for a bug that doesn’t allow you to get off of Telos and finish the game. Never will I ever purchased another game like this and I hope nobody else does either because it is robbery to charge that much for this many bugs.!!!
After boarding the ebon hawk for the first time at the telos Jedi training facility, the game glitches and will not allow the player to leave the ebon hawk or activate star map. On the way to the cockpit, the game will glitch and you can see through walls and the cockpit will not fully load showing clear signs of glitching. If you save the game and reload the game, it will put you back into the game as a random white skinned Jedi, with a blue light saber and a dark skinned portrait of a woman. The game will let you save before you enter the ebon hawk for the first time at the Jedi training facility on Telos without glitching, but once you enter the ebon hawk and it cuts to the scenes once you’re on the ebon Hawk, the game will not allow you to do anything. I have taken screenshots to prove it because I really don’t want to quit this game but I will because I have spent money on it just for it to mess up like this.Show lessThat0n3Guyy
Buggy and some Serious inconsistencies.
I’m a huge fan of this game which is why I’m writing this review. I love that it has been made available to play through the App Store. However there are some serious fundamental problems with the game that make it a very frustrating experience. For example there’s one puzzle in particular that’s in the tomb of a certain Sith Lord that required the player to solve a math equation. After trying for over an hour to figure this puzzle out I realized that not only did the devs ignore order of operations but when I entered the “correct” sequence of operations it told me I got it wrong each time.
It’s such a bad feeling in games when there’s a puzzle that’s really tough, you’ve given it your all, you simply can’t figure it out, and you feel you have no recourse but to move on from the unsolved task.
It’s even WORSE when you do figure it out, second guess yourself and look up the answer online only to find out that you were correct in the first place and the only thing between you & your treasure is bad design. 😞Show lessMothCam
Some issues
Have the latest version and notice some of the dialogue scenes get skipped especially with t3m4. I only noticed because I have the original Xbox version. Yesterday I was playing got to Telos Lt. Gran says your ship and all droids weapons will be confiscated during the investigation. T3 immediately beeps in but they skipped his audio and visual and you get a quick flash to Gan saying you’re a droid so yes that includes you too. A few other scenes like that especially talking to T3 but that was the most glaring noticeable as being an opening scene to a new planet. Otherwise the gameplay is pretty good you definitely need a controller for swoop racing and if you want to hit the achievement of not letting a single with trooper in the ebon hawk with touch controls good luck with that if you can do it you’re better than me for sure lol.Show lessDaddyDom1977
A Deep, Philosophical Interrogation of Its Source Material
Obsidian took the opportunity to make an Empire to KOTOR’s New Hope, and boy did they run with it. A dark, intense and strange meditation on the problems of Jedi pacifism and a glimpse of how the galaxy recovers in the wake of one of those titular Star Wars.
Aspyr does this game justice in this port - while the game was notorious for its instability and incompleteness on release, it’s in a far better state now, more than 15 years on. And if you want to add in cut content, even here on iOS, Reddit says it’s possible to do so, and they have instructions.
The only thing it’s missing, in my opinion, is controller support. But we can’t get everything we want!Show lessBasic Chunnel
Top tier w/ room for improvement
Great port to mobile. Have loved this series for the longest time, remember playing it on original Xbox.
My only ask, find a way to pay the devs and give an optional install for the steam restored content mod.
Fixing dialog options with HK47, the telos conservation area, etc..
Observations:
- when you select a force power (heal, speed, etc) and use it, after portaling into the next area, the menu resets at the top. Would be great to be able to keep it on last selected item (or an option to enable it). True of all cutscene fights too, super tedious when trying to force speed out of somewhere like cantina on telos or using any guide/speeder
- controls for swoop races, would be great for input sensitivity changes. Feels a little sluggish and the jump button could be bigger
- if no restored content mod, quest dismissal for some of the bugged ones? 😄
- option to enable double tap for dialog? Sometimes trying to select remains or spin the camera results in a funny endless talking to someone loop
- Fun bug in doing echani training with handmaiden, if you equip a weapon right as it loads you kill her for real. Try to leave the ebon hawk and her companion image is blank and says “I’m broken. I’m so sorry.” Good spot for an achievement or easter egg
Thanks to all. Great game ❤️Show lessnicknac_nic
Aspyr Media is a terrible company!
Aspyr is lazy and incapable. None of the work they do amounts to any game that is playable and smooth operating. Aspyr is purely a cash-grab minded group that has plagued our favorite Star Wars classics.
I was hesitant to buy these KOTOR games because I was severely disappointed in Aspyr’s port of the incredible Star Wars Jedi Academy games. Especially with the absolute neglect and disregard for the community that plays it’s broken multiplayer portion.
Yet I did. I bought the game. I bought BOTH games. And both of them were bugged beyond belief.
I’ve encountered bugs where all the sound, except for the voices in cutscenes, would just cut off until I’ve gotten to a new and not previously explored zone.
When I got out of combat I could no longer move with whatever character I was using (which for me is almost always my main character). I would have to change the party leader to navigate the world.
With these two bugs combined I just don’t even want to play any more. I haven’t even gotten past the first planet on KOTOR II and I haven’t even gotten past Taris on KOTOR.
Praying for the day people stop doing business with Aspyr Media; including myself.Show lesssyndrick
Ducking amazing
This game is the best space rpg I’ve played since Star Wars The Old Republic. I haven’t beaten the first one yet since I’m stuck on Taris. Playing the path of the dark side is so well done. It took me 30+ hours to beat this game. Mostly looking for quest items. Romancing Visas Marr and causing the woman in white to fight with her was awesome. The pilot-smuggler is a classic piece of Star Wars. All the while, Kreia is planning to betray you yet you kill her anyway. Watching the exile go from fair toned and human to sickly pale with yellow eyes is an astounding process that I didn’t notice until I was on Onderon. Too bad it’s unfinished. There is a mod on PC however that restores most cut content. Overall, Obsidian deserves better with what happened to KOTOR III. The trilogy must be completed.Show lessmoon_bro
Fantastic game
I loved kotr and played that on the Nintendo switch. I was upset to find that the sequel is only available via mobile devices. Overall I can tell many enhancements have been made to the game since the first one.
The only issue is it’s.. overwhelming and clunky on a mobile device. Movement in particular. I would gladly just play this on a console and l look forward to the thought that it someday will be.Show lessjaytothe^2
Awesome!
The game was buggy it first came out for PC. The fact that it runs this smooth on a tablet is nothing short of amazing. The only real issue I have is equipment management for the party. Normally it can be done from the Ebon Hawk/characters ship. The buttons are so tiny to switch from different companions on the ship to Change their load out make them almost impossible to hit on touch screen. Managing characters equipment is a massive pain because of this. If the buttons were just made a little bigger when switching between characters from the inventory menu I would literally have no complaints on this gameShow lessMadness1993
My favorite RPG of all time!
I love this game to death, having played it numerous times throughout the years. I was introduced to it by my father but I was hooked to it before I could even read. That being said, this mobile port was a great Christmas present to myself last year, and being able to play it on mobile has been amazing. However, ps5 controllers do not work on this version, which deeply saddens me as I do not have a micro usb charger for my older DualShock 4 anymore. Once they fix/introduce ps5 controller support, it’ll be 5/5 stars for me!Show lessTheRealist.com
