I guess you could even take it further and see the 3 Sith Lords as personifications of the harm the war has done to the mind of the Exile, or of everyone who was touched by it. You have to deal with the pain, sense of betrayal and sense of pointless emptiness which anyone who fights in a war feels.
The whole point of the ending is Kreia's line: there isn't any great secret, there's just you. I think I feel a whole lot better about the game.
OK, I'm being pretentious now. I'll go away. |
That's pretty much how I see it. Huzzah!
Much of the dislike for K2 seems to come from players who want the kind of "save the galaxy" story. I always preferred K2 for having that darker, deeper edge - though obviously the rushed finish gets in the way at points. The gameplay at the end is slightly repetitive, but the rest of the game makes up for it IMO.
