And? I had as much fun with KOTOR's combat system as I do with, say, Baldur's Gate's. Although that may be the fanboy in me talking...

I find that very doubtful considering KOTOR's was lsimilar but dumbed down 3 times, it was the exact same as NWN but dumbed down like 10 times.

Look, we get it.  You didn't like KOTOR and think other PC RPGs are superior.  Just because its not the best RPG ever made doesn't make it a bad game.

There was tons of glaring problems with KOTOR.  But much of it simply came from them trying to do so many things in one game.  As well as its scope causing many of its gameplay issues (long cutscenes, huge environments causing you to spend hours running around, etc).  You can't make the best game (or RPG) ever made in your first attempt.  Hopefully Old Republic will work out all those problems.

I also find it ironic that a lot of the problems I had with KOTOR were the same problems I had with games like FFXII.  Games that were just too big and had too much going on for their own good.  There seemed to be a lot of those towards the end of last gen.

But it does disqualify it from being the best Star Wars game. Also KOTOR was most definitely not BioWare's first attempt at all at RPGs.

Indeed.  As I already said, I would say that goers to Tie Fighter, followed by Jedi Outcast and Academy tied.

Hopefully though, The Old Republic will improve on KOTOR so much that it will become one of the best MMOs ever made AND the best Star Wars games ever made.
