Star Wars: KotOR Preview

EuroGamer has put together a preview of BioWare’s newest endeavor, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. Here’s a bit of what they had to say:

Your Jedi’s skill with the lightsabre rests entirely in your hands. You gain experience with each fight of course, and with this your swordplay will become smoother and more athletic, but footage of the game suggests that combat will eschew the Hong Kong action movie approach of the first two Episodes in favour of the more relaxed and dramatic strokes of the later films, giving you greater control of your actions. Because of the sheer number of Jedi and Sith in the game, you can expect to come up against increasingly powerful and inventive opposition. With the closely guarded mechanics of the combat system still being tweaked by the developer, we can’t expect to learn too much before the game’s release, but does anybody doubt the veterans of Baldur’s Gate?
