But isn't consensus that KOTOR 2 was much worse than KOTOR 1, and Neverwinter nights 2 much worse than NWN1?

Not... really. Some hold that KotoR2 was worse, yes, but almost nobody claims it was worse based on its writing or its worldbuilding or how it bildso n the Star Wars mythos, which is primarily what I caed about.

I had been under the impression that the NWN2 expansions elevated it high above the original, but I have not played those.

I see. I havent played any of those very much so I have no idea, thats just what I've heard through the years.

So you came in here calling my opinion into question without playing any of the relevant games?

well, I have played those games and I have a different opinion then you.  For one, I would say the writing of KotoR 2 is the weakest part of the game.  The different story elements seemed to fall apart in the end and left you with a feeling of "is that it?" in the end.  I think the gameplay in KotoR 2 is improved from the first, but that is to be expected in a sequel.  

IMO, Bioware is still the best WRPG developer out there followed very closely by Bethesda with Obsidian taking 3rd place.  I still really like their games, but they haven't quite risen to Bioware or Bethesda standards.

I'm curious about what you think about their new game coming out Alpha Protocol.  I have tried to get myself interested in it because I really like Obsidian, but I just can't get excited about it.  How about you?
