is it anything like KOTOR 1?
It really isn't. I spent 2 days downloading and installing it, played it for 3 days as a Republic Trooper, got to level 11, and never went back.
I could write pages and pages of what is crap about it, but I'll leave it with this:
Crappy combat mechanics, static worlds, static people, crap graphics, too few character attributes to manipulate, unispiring sidequests, lots of grind, the stories are alright, but not really anything to do with the KOTOR universe as far as I've seen. Extra game mechanics are unintuitive and balls hard to understand (at level 10 you're supposed to choose a class to specialise in. It took me so long to find the person that upgrades you that I'd ended up leveling an extra level, so I'd miss out on my level 10 character points for my specialisation.) After I finished the tutorial island place I got so frustrated at the game for not knowing where to go next, and not telling me how to use all the new stuff that I left the game, and haven't had the draw to turn it on again.
It's just a really thin, plastic-y world, and the stories aren't enough to let me look past the crap combat, crap aesthetics, dead immersion, boring travel and frustrating gameplay.
