The Elitist's Least Favorite Video Game Moments: Knights of the Old Republic 2: Peragus.

Why... why would I want to be a Droid....

Alright, lets play some KotOR 2. I just finished the first one as one of the most BA Jedi in the entire galaxy, and now I want to own more face as the Jedi Outcast, the Exile. Surely this is going to start out in the most awesome way possible. I’m in super Star Wars adrenaline mode, having just beat the first one, I will take nothing but the most excellent and awesome.






What the hell is this shit... okay surely it will get more awesome... like soon. I’m gonna bust out of here, get my weapons, and break out of here on my super awesome ship.




WHO TEH HELL IS DIS OLD BITCH I WANT MY LIGHTSABER AND FORCE LIGHTNING PLZ SHUT UP NAO!



I DON’T CARE ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED TO THESE PEOPLE THEY TRIED TO KILL ME.





NOW I’M A DROID AND I STILL DON’T CARE ABOUT THIS DAMN MINING FACILITY





Okay, so I have a lot of deep seated hate for this, that might not be fair.



Fuck that. Yes it is.
He’s still naked........

I understand the lore. No longer a Jedi, the Exile is trying to live a slightly normal existence. Having been cut of from the force and setting her light saber aside long ago, she tries to go on. So it wouldn’t make sense for what I want to happen, killing all things with a light saber and full use of the Force. It’s also not very RPG ish, to start out with everything (unless your Metroid or Castlevania.)
Peragus is just so... not fun. It’s overly long, Kreia is still a pirate hooker, and Atton is supposed to be some sort of comedic relief, who in reality is just stupid, annoying, and mostly useless.

Oh, also. IT’S FUCKING LONG AS SHIT! Why in God’s holy name would you make the first level of your game suck anus, and then make the player continue sucking for two flippin’ hours.
Let me demonstrate...

Check this out. There are 22 video for this walk through of Peragus alone! . 22?!?! Assuming each video is just under 10mins (let’s say 7mins) that means that, also assuming you know exactly how to do everything with out doubling back or hesitating, that means it should take you two and a half hours.
It’s level freakin one! I do not want to run around as a naked half ass Jedi with Vibroblades and Security wands for three hours! WHYYY would I want to do that?!

So you may think I am being over dramatic and whiny... go play Peragus, then let me know how much fun you had.


 Still need proof? I found this little gem in my research. Now tell me Peragus doesn't give you soul cancer. 
Yes. That is a mod that allows you to skip Peragus. The level makes babies cry, and puppies died to create it. No one likes it. It has no friends.
