No it's a catering to shitters thing. The only way to balance actual lightsabers would be to make blaster shots instant kills against you as well, and noobs would hate that and couldn't cope.
Dash Rendar is too obviously a Han Solo imitation, but I'll still take a million Dash Rendars over Jedi and lightsabers. Dark Forces 1 is great because it doesn't have any fricking lightsabers but of course they had to make Kyle Katarn a force user with a lightsaber in the sequel. zzzzzzzz. Still a good game but I don't even unsheathe the lightsaber until I have to for the boss battles.
Again, only if you g_saberrealisticcombat otherwise they just lose hands. I always activate it at at least a 3 so every fight is life or death, nothing quite like decapitating a reborn with the flip thrust
I love it when a reborn leaps close to a cliffside but can't block my love tap because he ran out of force and plunges into the abyss. It's one of the simpler pleasures of fighting them and how I always try to kill the first one in Bespin.
And that armor canonically shouldn’t be able to outright block a saber hit. Unless palpatine used the scale armor from that one monster in the clone wars to modify trooper armor it should be a one hit kill like in the movies/ shows.
It doesn't block it, it just makes them not die instantly. You get a glancing blow rather than a lethal one.
The combat would have been 10x better if you could cut off arms, legs, heads, etc of every enemy. It wouldn’t even have to be bloody. LucasFilm/ Disney knows exactly what game Star Wars fans want but they won’t make it.
All they have to do for a giant success is implement the sound, graphics and gunplay of Battlefront 2 and focus on a single player game similar to Fallen Order.
Imagine a Star Wars game that implements the hardcore aspect of STALKER; you pick a ‘faction’ (bounty hunter, smuggler, merchant, etc) and are thrown into the outer rim, or even the inner rim on a planet like Coruscant.

That sounds like dogshit, Fallen Order had awful gameplay.

I meant fallen order being a single player with a decent story, the similarity stops there. I don’t know a single person who would rather have battlefront III micro transaction galore with bugs, lag, connections errors, etc. over a single player Star Wars rpg where you just play as a random person right before or during the clone wars.
Not in the Jedi Knight games, every enemy dies in one *strike* except those clad in cortosis armor.
The lightsaber is a busted weapon and the way it's balanced is by making Kyle and Jaden shitters at using them initially.
>Games not made in the last 10 years. do. not. matter.
And yet any one of them is still better than EA's entire Star Wars roster over the past 12 years.
Nta but Battlefront 2 has great gameplay, sound, graphics, and control with a decent forgettable single player. It's just a damn shame nobody actually plays online on PC so you're stuck playing co-op missions with 3 other dudes.
Remember the original Revengeance "cut at will" gameplay before they streamlined it into a more typical action adventure game? This is how lightsabers and Star Wars should look like. Since lightsabers are so hot, you wouldn't even see much blood as the wounds would be instantly cauterized.
But it's Disney so you can't have cool violence. They are not even making that much money from the movies and shows, they are only produced as expensive commercials for the toys they sell to children.
In the first movie Obi Wan cuts a guy's arm off with blood splattering over the floor. In the second movie Luke gets his hand slashed off in full glory on the screen. Vader chokes a guy to death, with veins popping on the terrified guy's face and all. What are you talking about?
Episode 9 we see the head of a dedicated speaking role character.
The issue isn't star wars saying no limbs allowed, it's lucasfilm saying "hey don't let the player run around as a Jedi slaughtering people in a gory mess".
Have you considered that the devs priority is to make the game they want first and not make a game where you can slice people up just for the sake of it?
>enemies deflect every attack but lose 'posture' until it is at zero then you can connect and kill them in one hit
There I fixed it, and it plays the exact same. Pay me now.
The fact that there is no death match in any of the newer star wars game is a crime. There was no greater feeling than killing a great jedi with mines. We are never getting that feeling again.
>every game with sword combat >swords are just baseball bats you beat enemies over the head with until they stop
I really don't get why people get so hung up on this with lightsabers specifically.
I'm actually playing Fallen Order for the first time right now and all the backtracking to try to find your way back to the fricking ship after you completed the level object is fricking annoying and clearly only here to pad out a shallow game. Holy shit. They even deliberately cut off the direct paths back to the ship with laser gates and dead ends here and there to make sure you have to take the longest most convoluted route back. What fricking cancer. Glad I pirated this.
i made one on roblox but no one played it (its broken now)
all you did was build lightsabers and run around cutting each others limbs off
i thought it was cool 🙁
(dual wielding was op)
Don't care. I like Fallen Order because it's a good video game. If I wanted something just like the movies I would watch the movies. Complete non-argument.
The combat would have been 10x better if you could cut off arms, legs, heads, etc of every enemy. It wouldn’t even have to be bloody. LucasFilm/ Disney knows exactly what game Star Wars fans want but they won’t make it.
The system should be insanely simple, but nobody has the balls to do it >Every enemy is made of paper compared to a lightsaber >Enemies with blasters are glass cannons that require active defense to approach, and need planning to fight in groups >Enemies with melee weapons require some effort to hit an opening while not getting hit >Enemies with the force do not have openings until you wear them down first
don't most enemies die in one or two hits, and the ones that don't like force users need to be stance broken or some shit? haven't seen gameplay of this in a while
The saber system in the Jedi Academy mod, Movie Battles II is perfect. Movie Battles II in general is one of the best Star Wars game experiences I've had, and I have absolutely no idea why EA hasn't made their own version of it. A customizable class system, the saber system, the guns, and how creative you can get with the builds sometimes was magic. Loved being a "melee" Super Battle Droid and slapping overconfident jedi to death.
man dont ever take starwars seriously, especially the movies
like how all the armor of the empire just sucks shit and are practically non existent
the games atleast try to explain everyone's durability with personal shields..
please understand, designing a game with OHKO fights might take some effort. Better to make another scuffed dmc or soulsslop
No it's a catering to shitters thing. The only way to balance actual lightsabers would be to make blaster shots instant kills against you as well, and noobs would hate that and couldn't cope.
Name one game
Cosmo's Cosmic Adventure
People holding lightsabers are immune to blaster shots. Go watch the movies.
> Go watch the movies.
so explain order 66 then?
homosexual cheated
Wrong.
Dash Rendar was cooler than solo
Dash Rendar is too obviously a Han Solo imitation, but I'll still take a million Dash Rendars over Jedi and lightsabers. Dark Forces 1 is great because it doesn't have any fricking lightsabers but of course they had to make Kyle Katarn a force user with a lightsaber in the sequel. zzzzzzzz. Still a good game but I don't even unsheathe the lightsaber until I have to for the boss battles.
you zoomers haven't played JK2 or Jedi Academy. Besides at least all the regular humanoid enemies die from one swing in Fallen Order
To be fair, enemies don't die in one hit on outcast unless you activate the skill based cheats that elevate the game from an 8 to a 10.
All their limbs can still get decapitated though, and the combats genuinely fun in Academy when you're facing off against other sabered opponents
Again, only if you g_saberrealisticcombat otherwise they just lose hands. I always activate it at at least a 3 so every fight is life or death, nothing quite like decapitating a reborn with the flip thrust

all the non-lightsaber-wielding enemies die from one hit in jk2 even without the dismemberment cheat
?t=6447
God I miss Kyle like you wouldn't believe.
Huh? The stormtroopers can sometimes take two hits, and the bounty hunters take several.
They have armor, anyone without armor goes down instantly.
And that armor canonically shouldn’t be able to outright block a saber hit. Unless palpatine used the scale armor from that one monster in the clone wars to modify trooper armor it should be a one hit kill like in the movies/ shows.
>canonically
It doesn't block it, it just makes them not die instantly. You get a glancing blow rather than a lethal one.
That's how Outcast and Academy play.

fallen order is "every star wars game" eh? weird, I thought there were more than that
Not in the Jedi Knight games, every enemy dies in one *strike* except those clad in cortosis armor.
The lightsaber is a busted weapon and the way it's balanced is by making Kyle and Jaden shitters at using them initially.
this will be the 2nd best selling game this year behind Harry Potter
It'll be an embarrassment; play the jedi knight: dark forces series.
That's just Fallen Order and that shitty Force Unleashed series
the yuuzhan vong would like to know your force users location
>he never played the dark forces series
Zoomer detected
Games not made in the last 10 years. do. not. matter. and only exist for midwit trash to droll over cuz "muy nostelgiea" youtube beta bucks

absolute trash opinion, but thanks for sharing, boomer.

Keep """enjoying""" TORtanic, you drone
where do you get off pretending to be a moronic kid?
Nta but Battlefront 2 has great gameplay, sound, graphics, and control with a decent forgettable single player. It's just a damn shame nobody actually plays online on PC so you're stuck playing co-op missions with 3 other dudes.
I got it for $5 on a sale and only played Ewok hunt. I was having trouble finding matches so I uninstalled. It was super fun though with a full team.
Enjoy your shit games moronic child.

This isn't Disney, it's lucasfilm. They have never been pro-having shit like this
In the first movie Obi Wan cuts a guy's arm off with blood splattering over the floor. In the second movie Luke gets his hand slashed off in full glory on the screen. Vader chokes a guy to death, with veins popping on the terrified guy's face and all. What are you talking about?

The issue isn't star wars saying no limbs allowed, it's lucasfilm saying "hey don't let the player run around as a Jedi slaughtering people in a gory mess".
Then play as Sith or something else. Anakin slaying younglings. Or a good Jedi slaying robots, but make the lightsaber a proper weapon.
Have you considered that the devs priority is to make the game they want first and not make a game where you can slice people up just for the sake of it?
I can't imagine actually trying to design an entire game about that and I couldn't imagine how many pcs would explode trying to work with all of that
>enemies deflect every attack but lose 'posture' until it is at zero then you can connect and kill them in one hit
There I fixed it, and it plays the exact same. Pay me now.

I really don't get why people get so hung up on this with lightsabers specifically.
There hasn't been a single good star wars game in well over a decade, and we likely won't see a good one ever again at this rate.
People pretending Squadrons was bad just to continue this narrative deserve to never be taken seriously
Who?
>OP is a moron who doesnt play video games
>another game Ganker shills that's actually dogshit

What fricking cancer. Glad I pirated this.
Star wars ObiWan has 1 hit kills and it was an Xbox only game while the PC version was cancelled. What a shame.
xbox games looked awesome
i made one on roblox but no one played it (its broken now)
all you did was build lightsabers and run around cutting each others limbs off
i thought it was cool 🙁
(dual wielding was op)
lightsabers are stupid anyways when you can fricking shoot lightning from your hands and mind rape others into doing your bidding
Don't care. I like Fallen Order because it's a good video game. If I wanted something just like the movies I would watch the movies. Complete non-argument.
Because Star Wars isn't allowed to be M rated and super violet.
Viral marketing.

>Enemies with melee weapons require some effort to hit an opening while not getting hit
>Enemies with the force do not have openings until you wear them down first
The setting has been tarnished beyond any hope of salvage. The time and money would be better spent creating something original.
don't most enemies die in one or two hits, and the ones that don't like force users need to be stance broken or some shit? haven't seen gameplay of this in a while
very untrue
Guilty as charged but Jedi still manage to be OP
>playing Fallen Boredom
>come to door
>"This door is locked from the other side."
Yeah but, I have a lightsaber so why does that matter?

Play Jedi Outcast/Academy
man dont ever take starwars seriously, especially the movies
like how all the armor of the empire just sucks shit and are practically non existent

It is a crime that that event never came back
