I enjoy both equally as characters, but with the Exile, from a writing standpoint, there's just a lot more room to add things, compared to Revan, who's largely had his story told from start to finish. Meetra's history is more open.
In terms of gameplay, KOTOR 2 took all that was amazing about KOTOR 1, and improved it. The influence system was something that was both fun and infuriating at times, but also realistic. The characters had to trust you in order to tell you their life story, rather than making you wait to level up to reveal more. (Mission and Juhani are good examples of this in KOTOR 1). Plus the ability to train all of your party members into Jedi was great, as it allowed you to take characters you'd love out more often. In KOTOR 1's case, once I got Bastila and Juhani/Jolee, I stopped taking Mission or Canderous or Carth out, unless it was necessary to get certain dialogue or a side-quest finished.
