So, for how much I said the first game’s open world felt weird, the world in this game is not that far behind in how much exploring you can do once exploring at all is allowed. There are chunks of the world that are blocked off, especially Death Mountain, and little areas that you can see but not get to, most of which require warping in from the Dark World, but most of the Light World is explorable at this point.

Star Wars: The Old Republic – Knights of the Eternal Throne
Knights of the Fallen Empire ultimately made some good moves and some bad ones. I think it could have gone either way with how it’s remembered, but the followup expansion seemed like nothing but bad decisions and cemented the single-player story era as a low point in the game’s history.
