Reception
IGN's Aaron Boulding said that in the first game there was "tons of character development" and the "original characters and story are interesting enough, but being in a Star Wars setting just makes them like family". GameSpot said that "many of the game's characters are well defined".
The first Knights of the Old Republic game was given the "Outstanding Achievement in Character and Story Development" award by the Academy of Interactive Arts in their annual Interactive Achievement Awards. HK-47 won two awards, one being the 2003 Computer Gaming World "NPC of the Year" award, and also the "Original Game Character of the Year" category in the 2004 Game Developers Choice Awards. Kreia also won the "Best Character" award in GameSpy's Game of the Year awards.

Famous quotes containing the word reception:
“He’s leaving Germany by special request of the Nazi government. First he sends a dispatch about Danzig and how 10,000 German tourists are pouring into the city every day with butterfly nets in their hands and submachine guns in their knapsacks. They warn him right then. What does he do next? Goes to a reception at von Ribbentropf’s and keeps yelling for gefilte fish!”
—Billy Wilder (b. 1906)
“But in the reception of metaphysical formula, all depends, as regards their actual and ulterior result, on the pre-existent qualities of that soil of human nature into which they fall—the company they find already present there, on their admission into the house of thought.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
“Satire is a sort of glass, wherein beholders do generally discover everybody’s face but their own; which is the chief reason for that kind of reception it meets in the world, and that so very few are offended with it.”
—Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)
