Thanks Revan!
Sounds like the story is shaping up pretty good. No surprise though, the Obsidian guys don't skimp on story like most developers.
I'm totally digging what theyre doing with the companion characters too. Being affected by your light/dark side choices, even to the point of leaving the party, is an awesome angle, but being able to get them back on your good side by completing their side quests...I hope that will add some much needed depth and replay value that the first game was a bit lacking in.
