>Dark forces II had good swordplay
You were huffing gas fumes behind a convenience store in 1998 if you believe that.
Dark forces 2 was an excellent FPS game that was unfortunately burdoned with tacked on saber combat. It was a clumsy mess and the swordplay was the low point of an otherwise excellent game. That and some clumsy early 3d platforming meant that 90% of player deaths came from falling.

In multiplayer I just backpedqled as jedi ran towarss me, firing the carbonite gun and shattering their frozen corpse. Or people just camped narrow walkways and "force pushed" people i to the abyss. In the forced sabers only multiplayer it was just a room full of retards running in circles doing wild heavy swings. Again the trick was just backpedal while swinging and let the shoddy netcode and 350ms lag kill your oponent as they walk into your swing. There was far too much lag to actually parry and have real saber fights, everyone just found a way to exploit the lag or simply never touched the saber ever again. You could go 20-0 just by exploiting that flawed combat with dialup internet.
Again, I love the game as one of the best 90s FPS but it had some massive flaws especially online and with the MOTS add-on.
