Switch KOTOR 2 – A buggy Mess. Again.

Too strange not to be real…

Ok. Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords is famous for many things. Sadly, one of them is that it was released hastily and as such was a buggy mess. Whole sections of the game were written off with very little explanation. Many modders have spent the many years since its release restoring this cut content and fixing the issues in the game, so it was nice to see that Aspyr was re-releasing KOTOR II ahead of the series’s upcoming remake.

However, they apparently missed a major bug. Well, actually, I would consider “Unable to play half the game” to be a critical bug. But then again, what do I know?

Yes, that’s right. When you get to a planet halfway through the game, the game will crash to a black screen.

Never mind History rhyming, this is straight deja vu.

Aspyr has promised a patch in the near future. Which is good, except Nintendo is very much a slow poke when it comes to patch implementation
