David Gaider: Even BioWare, which built its success on a reputation for good stories and characters, slowly turned from a company that vocally valued its writers to one where we were... quietly resented, with a reliance on expensive narrative seen as the "albatross" holding the company back.
Reone, an open source engine for KotOR 1 and 2, has made a lot of progress the last few years. Looks like new development is on hold for a codebase cleanup, but the dev has been at it for a long time, so I imagine he'll finish eventually.

what is the dark (technical) side of the game?
If you can read C++, you can read the reimplemented stuff in the xoreos-tools or xoreos itself. There's also a similar reimplementation project just for KotOR, reone.

are there any mods that make it into an action combat game? i love star wars really wanted to love this game but the combat completely killed it for me is there any mods to "fix" it
I would suggest keeping an eye out on this project: https://github.com/seedhartha/reone It's a remake of the kotor engine, and they have a real-time combat mod planned for it, but it might take quite a while.

Future of reone
As you may know, reone is an open-source reimplementation of KotOR and TSL, that has been in development since summer, 2020. It has recently reached its first major milestone, which is making the Endar Spire level completable (but beware of bugs!). Here's the projects YouTube channel, where you can see the engine in action.
