No, what's cheap is nature, making bears so much more dangerous than I. So I evened the playing field. With a door.

Depends on how you define "modern". Post-KotOR? Yeah, it's the best. But including KotOR? Not a chance.

Maybe, but lemme tell you something, the recent Lego Star Wars The Skywalker Saga is A-mazing. Not sure which of the two is the best tbh. Free infinite space battles, a shitton of ships, capital ships, you name it. And then theres the whole boots on the ground thing, which is also great. Story missions, free roam, a bazillion characters, you name it.

Not for me, no. I hate the slow methodical combat. I vastly preferred the combat of the Force Unleashed games.

Define 'modern.' It's the best in the last few years, but that's without much competition.

I liked that it's the only star wars game that didn't make you feel like you were swinging a colorful bat around.

Force Unleashed being a pretty egregious example of that.

Fallen Order is probably the best Star Wars game of its type since the first Jedi Knight title (Dark Forces II). As far as advancement in lightsaber combat goes and whatnot. It even has really nice level design. I think you can tell they really studied the old Lucasarts games for this one, and threw it together with FromSoftware Soulslikes stuff? I love that. It's Uncharted Souls Wars. Haha. Knights of the Who Now? Lol

The Force Unleashed wasn't that good IMO. Easily a 6/10. I have trouble seeing how anyone can regard this game as more than like a pretty cool comic book basically. One and done because they can do better. If even support that level of quality at all. If you're a fan of it all? Worth a read, keep it on your shelf, better than Outcast & Jedi Academy in many ways but shouldn't that be a given? Been some yeaes. I mean, I like a lot of games especially old games that most other people can't seem to stand. I guess. Actually idk anymore but. I hope I don't offend anyone lol. Im sure there are people out there who love Force Unleashed 1 & 2. They may replay them a lot. That's cool. Because they're not like awful awful. But I don't think I could even drink legally back when that game came out and I do not remember having a good time. Clunky boss fights. Unfinished levels. Musou combat. Cookie cutter powers from Mass Effect and Infamous. Destructable environments are subpar. Not a lot to do besides knock enemies around like bowling pins, kill puzzle robots, and... Watch cutscenes about characters nobody idolized. 6/10 here

I see how this could be another player's 8/10 but I do not see a 10/10 here or anything close

The collectables tell a story.

Force Unleashed made a splash, that's for sure

Well, the chests don't. The chests are all just cosmetics, and none of the cosmetics are even good. That's the biggest weakness of the game by far.

Of a man dressed as a crate

A man who built a lightsaber in a cave for a droid without realizing it

Of a man who got a clean slate

Idk

Customizing the ship's paintjob to blend in lol

I'm one of the people that like Force Unleashed more than Fallen Order. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that the Force Unleashed games were 10/10. I just don't like the Souls-like combat that's been leeching into so many unrelated IPs. And I mean, I really don't like that combat style. If Fallen Order wasn't Star Wars, I wouldn't even have put up with the combat long enough to finish the game. And I played it via gamepass.

I was actually thinking of Fallen Order as Force Unleashed 3, which is interesting
