As soon as this scene ends you are thrust into the action as you attempt to defend your vessel.
The main character (that's you) is a passenger and crew member aboard this Republic cruiser. In this scene, we watch as a Republic ship is being attacked by a Sith fleet. This game starts with a traditional text crawl, and then the traditional space scene. In fact, there is a apparently invincible Sith armada trying to destroy the Old Republic, led by the Dark Lord Malak.
It starts almost four thousand years before the events portrayed in the movies, when the threat of the Sith is more obvious. A great video game worthy of the Star Wars title, Knights of the Old Republic (KotOR for short) brought us an RPG (Role-Playing Game) of astronomical proportions.
