so can we all agree it's hands down the best star wars game ever made?

>>714067858 (OP)
No because my personal bias and nostalgia tells me that Republic Commando and Lego Star Wars are better and I'm being sincere.

No, kill yourself

>>714067858 (OP)
nope. that would be this

Considering the AAA space this game is pretty good, tons of puzzles, plat forming, bosses, combat is well designed, straight white male protagonist with a female love interest
>gow 3 director
Guess it makes sense

>>714067858 (OP)
I fucking love the little droid homie in this game like you wouldn't believe. I know he's just another swing at cute loveable little robot guy because that works great in and out of this franchise but god damn did he do the trick, I'm a sucker. I even like that bullshit unnecessary wheel bot in the sequels. Anyway I went to fucking star wars land for 5/4 and saw a custom made BD someone was wearing on their arm and had to fight the urge to grab it and run.

Pic related.

Fallen Order was mediocre, but this game is reasonably good. Lot of movement and abilities to explore.

>lightsaber = baseball bat
nah

>>714068470
Idk. Not a lot of actually good sw games. I'm struggling to think of one better. JK games were jank fest and haven't aged too well. KotOR games are pretty easy with piss poor gameplay, but captivating story.

This is the one

>>714067858 (OP)
Not even close.
It's alright though.

>>714068685
>JK games were jank fest and haven't aged too well.
I return to outcast and academy every once in a while and always have a good time, could be nostalgia but I think they hold up great.

>>714067858 (OP)
That was Rogue squadron, zoomie.

>>714067858 (OP)
I liked the first one more. The second is just so clunky with all the extra fancy moves. They shouldve just made an action game.

>>714068873
Only problem with fallen order is the complete lack of good bosses and plenty of them. The game is ok itself.

>>714067858 (OP)
Yuck, no. That award would be on for this one.

>>714068461
Not contrarian, I do still like this game, just not at number one. Besides wouldn't it have to be the biggest or damn near biggest star wars game out right now for disagreement to be contrarian?

Jedi Knight 2 and Jedi Academy were way better. Multiplayer lightsaber duels were kino and even the singleplayer campaign was more fun than this wallrunning game.

>>714067858 (OP)
It's no better Jedi Knight or Kotor games, but it's pretty much the best game of Disney-era Star Wars.

>>714070019
ya, but this is a Star Wars game. The amount of committee bullshit every story has to go through must be insanely immense.

>>714068632
I'm curious what people mean when they say this.
Like, with Rey in the sequel trilogy I get it, she's just swinging it wildly, but Cal uses it with actual finesse and incorporates the force into wild acrobatics with them and shit like that, and people still go
>lmao baseball bat
He uses it more like a magic laser space sword than Luke does in the OT.
So, this is elegant swordplay?

>>714068632
>>714070128
but this? gay wild swinging from a less elegant age?

>>714067858 (OP)
Bait but for a Disney game, it's enjoyable enough. Picrel is the undisputed king.

>>714067858 (OP)
I'll always have a soft spot for The Force Unleashed.

>>714069957
Actually they/them have tried to ruin it by giving Sam Maggs a job to write a novel that takes place between Fallen Order and Survivor and she obviously made Merrin a lesbian in that novel.
Thankfully Survivor devs were reasonable enough to pretend that novel does not exist. And Sam keeps seething to this day.

>>714070128
>The one scene where Luke loses his shit and just lets rage take over

when will we move on from sample and hold displays so we can have real motion clarity and natural motion blur?

>>714070092
Idunno I imagine they're kinda hungry for another Luke/Anakin/Young Obi clone to take the stage. It's kinda obvious the sequels didn't really set anyone up for that mantle and the only Jedi there had her story resolved even if she got big.

>>714070268
kek, based EA | Respawn.

>>714070128
Oh I just assumed the argument was that in order to not ohko most/all things your deadly laser weapon is more a blunt and painful inconvenience. Not a personal nitpick of mine though, it's a game after all.

nah. also II is better at being less dumb.

That just strikes me as a Wonder Woman scenario; my lore is shamefully rusty but isn't she part of an all women society? Could just be she had a girlfriend and then enjoyed a new option, it's space after all man, I'm surprised there's not really anyone banging droids.

>>714067858 (OP)
Blaster stance is easily top 3 lightsaber combat in the franchise, every game needs gun parries

>>714067858 (OP)
btw this "anon" has been shilling this shit game for days now

This games combat triggered me SO MUCH that i think it is perfectly exemplary of exactly how NOT to design a combat system. Will make a indepth thread about the problems with this game soon as I finished it, but unbelievable how broken its combat is, and no. Not in a good way. In a horrendous way.

>>714070424
always been such a nonsensical argument since no game works like that. It's a game, you can't go around 1 shotting shit outside of joke game modes like Heaven and Hell in DMC.
And then people who never actually played the game say "uh bro jedi outcast and jedi academy have REAL lightsabers!"
No they don't you fucking mouthbreathers that's a fucking console command/cheat mode you need to enable, otherwise they're also "baseball bats".
Also, for anyone who cares about autistic star wars ranting, light sabers were never supposed to be ultimate "cuts through anything" japanese folded 1000 times weapons. They were swords, made of a laser, and acted like that. It wasn't until the sequel trilogy that they started using it in ridiculous ways like cutting open blast doors, and even then it's very slow and methodical. We saw in episode 5, Luke wants to take down an ATAT on Hoth. Does he just cut it's very available leg and fuck up wires? How about getting on top of it and disabling shit? No, he jets up to a hatch, the weakest part, and pops it open by destroying the lock. Or in the same movie where he fights vader and full on smacks him on the arm and it bounces off his armor only slightly wounding him and in episode 6 he needed a full swing straight down to cut off his hand at the wrist, the thinnest part of his arm.
>oh uh if you read the novel that came out 10 years later it's special light saber resistant armor
Cool, retroactively changing shit to fit narrative changes is gay and I don't accept it. Within the context of it being a video game that needs some form of balancing, and also that armor can at least slightly deflect light sabers, him not 1 shotting storm troopers/them having something made of something that can help deflect a light saber blow isn't so unfeasible it somehow ruins suspension of disbelief, especially in the first game when he's been out of practice for 6 years after being a literal 10 year old.

>>714067858 (OP)
Not even close, not to mention it's inferior to jedi Fallen Order in terms of the game itself, although it does have more features

>>714070424
>>714071193
I know you weren't exactly arguing in favor of the idea, I just hate stupid faggots and wanted to rant

>>714067858 (OP)
More like best Star Wars game in the last 10 years at most. But it's not like there's much competition.

>>714071239
It's fine SWtism is fascinating to me. I can never really get through the doorway with the lore and interpretation, but I love hanging by the window. I mostly agree though I am thinking now that a lightsaber could probably get away with a decent amount vs an AT-AT.

>>714071251
I never really thought about it until your post but the Sequel trilogy is the first time SW didn't have a multimedia suite to go along with it. The prequels and OT had tons of games to go along with them. But post Disney the only time Rey and gang show up is in battlefront. Everything else made post Disney is OT or PT

>>714067858 (OP)
It's a split between Pod Racer and Rogue Squadron.
There's also that SNES Star Wars game I didn't get past the first stage but I'm sure it's in the top 3.

>>714072087
>though I am thinking now that a lightsaber could probably get away with a decent amount vs an AT-AT.
I think given time he could melt through it and fuck up some internals, but I think it'd be quicker to do what he did, which was just pop open the hatch and just mow down everyone inside.

>>714072146
An attempt was made.

>>714072146
There is nothing to tell. The entire sequel trilogy series lasts about a year and the republic was blown up 30mins into the first film. Clone Wars and other multimedia have time for characters to do things which the shitquels don't have. Absolute criminal waste of potential.

>>714072354
I meant in terms of games. There were so many for the Prequels and Original movies but Disney just did not hop on that.

>>714067858 (OP)
FUCK YOU NOT READING THE THREAD
YES its the best star wars action game

>>714072478
hopefully theyll start expanding into the post-sequel era soon. The nice thing about doing that is that you can ignore most of it. Hosnian Prime, space poland, and Exegol were all invented for the sequel trilogy and were effectively eliminated. Everything cleans up surprisingly well if you just dont talk about it.

>>714072478
>Three Utapauans in that image

>>714072259
Oh, I completely forgot about The Force Unleashed.
The PS2 port is definitely in the top 4.

>>714067858 (OP)
It isn't even the better one in Its own series

>>714072521
Wasn't Squadrons sequel era? Also there was Lego Force Awakens. That's about it.

They've announced the first post episode 9 book and it looks fucking awful.

pass

>>714072689
Squadrons was post ROTJ in that similar space that the Mando show is. Disney are pumping all their money and stories into the period between ROTJ and TFA because as soon as the sequels hit, every single story falls apart.

The game is too long
The final boss is a fucking arab

I couldn't complete the first one, found it boring. I preferred Outlaws actually. Should I bother with 2?

>>714073415
Too far out to get hyped. I'm excited about it. Love me tactics, love me turn based, love me x-com clone. There are some good things they've announced:
>can custom the MC to be an alien
>can create your own squads
>can design astromechs and create nothing but an astromech squad
>can customise your base
sounds comfy but it's just too far away to talk about. Plus the casual audience hates it already because it's not AHDH pew pew shooter like Battlefront.

For me it's more how floaty shit feels when your lightsaber bounces off an electrostaff or another saber.
It's like you're fighting with a pooltoy half the time.

Star Wars XCOM

Not a huge fan of Bode, when you have a brand new character like that the betrayal was obvious even if secret jedi wasn't nearly as foreshadowed. I just hate the logic he uses towards the end.

>>714075395
They might make his daughter important in the sequel.

>>714073401
>>714068986
I really liked Outlaws. It isn't perfect but there are elements of it that I really love. The overall atmosphere is great, in terms of the wide open Star Wars world to explore, the music and sound effects, the visuals and lighting. The gameplay does feel half baked though at times, there are quite a few neat ideas that I really like but they always feel like they could have been developed more. The lockpicking minigame for instance is possibly my favorite out of any game, until you realize there are like 6 variations in the whole game.

And it turns out Kay is actually kinda cute, just needed a new hair cut.

>>714076587
Yeah I enjoyed what I had with it but it was very safe and average. There is good potential in there but it was ignored. I liked playing Sabaac and the space combat but it wasn't enough to bring me back and play the DLC.

>>714067858 (OP)

>>714077632
You'll have a bunch of fun as long as you go into it with modest expectations. It's about as good as Hogwarts Legacy, in terms of being a relatively fun little open world adventure game with good atmosphere for fans of the series but with underdeveloped gameplay, so if you liked HWL you'll probably like it. Well worth the £20 on sale I paid, wouldn't pay full price.

I never even used the gun parries, I just played it like a bootleg Form II Makashi with the occasional ship damage from the blaster on the more annoying boss challenges and those bullshit Raider enemies with the jetpack and pikes. The reach and swing speed of the form is ridiculous for this game, and the dash in when you hold the attack button is actually fucking broken at closing distance. Honestly felt like you could use nothing but that form for the entire game.
