Is it still worth playing?

BioWare's 2003 role playing game, set in the Star Wars universe four thousand years before the films, first on the Xbox and then on the PC. Darth Malak, a Dark Lord of the Sith, has sent a Sith armada against the Galactic Republic, and the protagonist, a Jedi, travels between planets to defeat him. That protagonist is yours to create: you choose a class and gather companions, in a system based on the d20 rules of the Star Wars Roleplaying Game. Combat is real time with a pause, and you control one character with two AI party members. On the way, an alignment system follows your actions and speech to decide whether you lean to the light or the dark side. The choices are still the reason to come today: dialogue has consequences for characters and worlds, and what you say shapes how others treat you.
