So, 15 years ago when KOTOR came out, I was too busy playing Command & Conquer Generals to pay it any attention, but now that Nihilus is bringing out the nostalgia in everyone else, I want your opinions: does KOTOR and its sequel hold up as enjoyable games today? Is it worth the time/effort to enjoy some now-defunct star wars story? How much time does playing the game take, anyway? Is this a game you have to invest major time into to enjoy?
looks like both games go for 10$ each in the Steam store. Either one worth it for someone who played neither one when it came out?

Works on my desktop, but not my laptop.
I purchased the big star wars pack on steam during one of the sales a while ago. Very much worth it.

The bundle also includes Shadows of the Empire, which I hadn't played since N64 was new...
The KOTOR graphics are far better in comparison.
I remembered swoop racing being way harder the first time...
Can't remember what he is called now, sign of getting old lol.
The real gems are the X-Wing/Tie Fighter games, Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II, and Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast. Excellent, excellent games.

back when it came out I smoked and I remember having to pause the game dumbfounded and having to smoke like 2 or 3 cigs while just rolling over everything I had just learned and trying to recall the first half of the game and connect the dots and was just amazed at how it all fit together and I had no clue. not to mention it introduces the Shan family and Revan.
as someone already mentioned, pod racing, meh. KOTOR 2? meh. never heard enough hype and never read a review that sounded more than average so after KOTOR why bother with a let down follow up?
FYI, save, save, save, make save points often.
