Today’s Game is Jedi Survivor. I keep nearly typing that as Fallen Order. Old habit I suppose from typing the name so many times while working to 100% it.
Anyways. I made my way through the Forest Array. I just want to say thank god for the fast travel in this game. Makes getting around so much easier. I do feel there’s been a sense of accomplishment lost from it, but I can fully accept that’s on me and I’m not being forced to fast travel.
The gliding that got introduced im a little mixed on. It’s a fun idea but it does feel a little like a patch for what the first game had for the level design. Not any sort of deal breaker though. It’s a fun mechanic I like. The mounts too with how it’s moving to be a little more open of an open world.
Anyways. Finally, Dagan Gera. I like him. He feels like a Sephiroth type. Won’t go into any spoilers but I had fun taking pictures of him. Technically the shadow cast by the lightsaber is impossible I think, but that’s okay. I like how it casts a shadow over his eyes. I was playing with the spotlights too while doing this so I feel like that produced some really stellar screenshots.
Idk why but I fuckin loved Dagan as a character and his design as a one-armed lightsaber-wielding powerful Force-user. He kicked so much ass and was super compelling imo. In fact it’s kinda made me want to actually check out the High Republic stuff.
When fighting him it made me stop and go “I really want to go back and play KoTOR”. It might be a future stop I make.
Also him missing an arm is fucking bad ass. I really hope they don’t give him a prosthetic or anything because the lack of symmetry in his design makes it so much more memorable. Plus coming off of Fallen Order I feel like he pulls off the “Fallen Jedi” thing better than what’s-his-face working with Merrin
Honestly all the villains in this one are incredibly strong. Way better than the first imo
The only one I found myself really caring about in the first one was the Second Sister. The rest were all eh. I only really remember some of them because I struggled with a few of the boss fights for them
