Well I for one always enjoyed K1 more than TSL, that is until recently; I think that had a lot to do with my own maturation. When I first played K1 I was much younger and it just felt more...epic to me. In contrast TSL always felt unnecessarily convoluted. With the hard work of TSLRCM however and a greater appreciation of the story on my part, I actually now prefer TSL and play it much more often. Don't get me wrong, I love K1 though! My main gripes with K1 are: 1) Silly Dialogue: Lines like "Hey - we speak the same language!" are overt and unnecessary. In fact, I don't think I realised how essential the PC Response Moderation Mod is to fixing this problem. (Thanks KP!) 2) Useless Characters: Party members like HK-47 and Jolee were great, but their brilliance is lost amongst a sea of mediocrity; T3-M4, Juhani, and Zaalbar to name a few. 3) Archetypal Monomyth Story: Bioware played it safe with K1; you know the whole 'Im out to save the galaxy from a clearly evil enemy'. Sometimes a little uniqueness is needed and that's what I love about TSL; its unapologetic for what it is: different.
