An Absolute Masterpiece! - Jedi Knight: Jedi Outcast Retrospective

[@WildFirePhoenix96]

This was my absolute favorite Star Wars game. I remember playing this as a kid everyday after school. It was the best time for Star Wars game and my childhood.

[@BBQBARNES-GAMING]

Same! Except when i was kid i could barely make it through on padawan. The difficulty in Outcast is insane compared to Academy

[@PressStartFonzie]

Were you in a clan? I miss those days 😅😂

[@HappysSkillingVids]

To this very day, I had NO IDEA you were supposed to cross the lower levels on Bespin ON THE LASERS. Always thought you had to go around, speed+jump, then heal after touching the heated pipes. Thanks for the life-changing information! :D

[@BBQBARNES-GAMING]

hahaha yeah they should not have made them red. really confusing choice there

[@lukemarshall1260]

I did the same!! Farout took forever.

[@DyingTiger]

Just posted a comment on the same thing! Speed + jump + heal and some sniping

[@dennissinned6299]

I love the point where they meet in Mon Mothma's office, talking about crystal mining and such, the discreet background music, is the somber Jedi Temple theme, foreshadowing something Jedi related. It's in the title of course but this little and brilliant touch, sets the mood !

[@jomiles3605]

Thank you for doing the Dark Forces / Jedi Knight series. This is one of my favorite video game series of all times. Your retrospectives are great 😌

[@BBQBARNES-GAMING]

Thanks! It's amazing how well they all still hold up. I was worried that Outcast would be less than what I remembered but man it's still a ton of fun

[@iknownothing495]

This brings back a lot of good memories. I played this game A LOT. Also the multiplayer. To me, it's the best Star Wars game ever.

[@BBQBARNES-GAMING]

Its still a ton of fun! Its right behind KOTOR for me!

[@Cigarbawz]

Absolutely fantastic video 👏 great breakdown and wicked use of KOTOR music 🔥 I really enjoyed watching this and the memories it brought back. Thanks for this video man, Outcast is downloading on my PS5 as we speak 🙌

[@BBQBARNES-GAMING]

Thanks! The KOTOR music works for almost anything. Such a great OST. So happy it is now out on modern consoles. It still holds up really well

[@paramedic2172]

I'm currently playing this game for the first time on Switch and it's already one of my favourites Star wars games. And I'm still in the early levels, no lightsaber nor force powers, just blasting my way through 💥🔫

[@BBQBARNES-GAMING]

It just gets better and better as it goes have fun

[@GorcStew]

once you get saber you're in a level surrounded by snipers and grenade lobbers so it is a real buzzkill...the fun really begins once you gtfo of NarShadda lol. The first act of the game /w out lightsaber seems so boring in comparison.

[@Cailus3542]

​@@GorcStew It's one of the best parts for me. You get by with just your guns, your wits and desperate hope that you can find health or shields. Then, after finally getting the lightsaber, you feel so awesome and powerful. Then you step outside and the snipers show you true power.

[@starlighter93]

59:18 Actually, if you crouch while using the scope you can move around.

[@BBQBARNES-GAMING]

Really wish I knew that earlier!

[@shartnockers]

21:00 I'm pretty sure you can play a mouse droid in the lego star wars games too. I think the cheat/extra that you can play as the extra characters does it

[@BBQBARNES-GAMING]

Cool so there's at least one other game out there

[@Gioeli76]

So fun fact: Desann and Tavion each use their own unique lightsaber styles, Desann uses a one-handed variant of the Strong "Red" style and Tavion uses a one-handed variant of the fast "blue" style. Also, in the last level, you can use the force to put out the flames temporarily, and if you deploy the seeker drone in front of the mirror, it will atack where Desann is supposed to be instead of his reflection.

[@BBQBARNES-GAMING]

The different lightsaber styles really added a lot to making every fight feel unique

[@florinsecry]

Second fun fact: when fighting Desann you can use your lightsaber to chop down a stone pillar and if it falls on him he dies instantly (same with you though)

[@Gioeli76]

There's also technically another lightsaber form, but its only in the GameCube version as far as I'm aware. It's more of a glitch, but if you use a cheat to start the game with the lightsaber, when beat certain levels while wielding it, the next level will load with him holding a different weapon with the blade of the lightsaber coming out of the weapons tip horizontally. The Kyle's movements are the same as if he's swinging it normally, but the blade is in a completely different direction. That port has a TON of glitches that are really cool!

[@Cailus3542]

Academy remains, annoyingly, the game with the best lightsaber gameplay. Fallen Order and Jedi Survivor, while excellent, failed to make the lightsaber duels organic like Outcast and Academy did. One day...

[@wormwood861]

The general consensus is that Disney refused to touch the EU because they wanted to avoid paying out rights and seeding any creative control. That's why we got off-brand 'legally distinct' retreads. Thrawn was one of the few exception.

[@BBQBARNES-GAMING]

Though i don't care that much for Disney's Thrawn compared to the original I will admit brining him in was a good move by them. He's still good just not as good as Legends

[@OcularFS]

This game was incredible. I was 11 years old playing it endlessly, not even that good at it, but just enjoying being within the world they created… the beginning without the lightsaber made me so impatient 😂

[@BBQBARNES-GAMING]

I was around 8 when it came out and had to have my dad beat Nar Shaddaa for me lol I was obsessed with the game regardless and the multiplayer with friends was Awesome back then too!

[@Fork1]

Actually Vice Admiral Thrawn did appear in "Tie Fighter" which came out in the 90s, so that is technically the first appearance of the Schiss in video-games format!

[@BBQBARNES-GAMING]

Oh man I forgot all about that! Its been ages since I played Tie Fighter or X-Wing. I barely remember much of them unfortunately

[@morbidjk]

I remember having to think like a Jedi to progress in this game! These old Star Wars games were so good, they got me into the Expanded Universe and now I'm reading full on 300+ page novels about Star Wars. I've never been into reading books! It's scary how good I can picture what's going on in these books just from prior visuals from the video games alone.

[@BBQBARNES-GAMING]

That is so true and Outcast did that better than any other game. The puzzles felt like actual things Jedi would do and felt really natural for their environments. The novels are a lot of fun. I'm currently re reading through the entire X-Wing series and man the original EU was so great. Obviously highly recommend the Timothy Zahn books as well!

[@morbidjk]

I am disappointed that I was not able to get father in this game as a kid. I had a lot of trouble on the first level, and I just couldn’t beat the level that starts with you at the bar. I wonder if I went back now could. I beat it without any guides. However I played so many hours in the custom battle mode. It was just so fun playing matches lightsabers only with my friend

[@BBQBARNES-GAMING]

That was me for a long time as well. I remember when I finally had a computer to look up how to get past that same level. Nar Shadda is a tough level especially on Xbox where you cant quick save and there's a sniper around every corner. The custom battle mode was rad as hell with friends

[@Jomenas]

This was a fantastic retrospective. I love this game inside and out, it's my favourite Star Wars game ever and I've been inspired to play through it again. I never knew about the force nexus point in the final fight with Dessan, I always just took him on directly so, you've helped me learn something new!

[@dennissinned6299]

Great game, great story. If i have one small complaint about it, is that it felt a bit too short in my first few playthroughs. I am still playing it along with Dark Forces 2, Mysteries of the Sith and Jedi Academy. Other old games too, Thief trilogy, Splinter Cell series, The first Deus Ex, Commandos 1 & 2, Starcraft 1 and 2, Warcraft 3 and more. Older games feel solid with tons of replay value. To clarify, i started pc gaming in my early 30's, yes i am 60 years old. And before anyone gives me shit about my age, my father in law is 90+ and he's playing pc games, single player and even WoW. Gaming is for every age. I consider myself lucky to have started when i did, because kids that grew up with consoles and pc's, don't appreciate the good, old stuff. I see many comments on KZbin, from young players, actually praising older games.

[@BBQBARNES-GAMING]

Thats awesome to still be gaming at 60! I hope to still be playing through Half-Life 1, Halo and Rome Total War when i'm that old.

[@starlighter93]

[@Leobelial239]

Soooo, for anyone who tries the game and doesn't know this: Change your lightsaber stances depending on situation. Light stance (Blue) has fast speed and low damage, but is the best one for deflecting blaster bolts. Great stance for stormtroopers and criminals. Medium stance (yellow) is the all rounder, good for every situation, but not great in any one of them. Decent speed, decent damage. Blaster bolts will be able to hit you some times, specially against multiple shooters or against weapons with fast rate of fire. Heavy stance (red) is pretty slow but has the most damage. Good luck deflecting blasters with this one, but you can sometimes end lightsaber duels in one or two hits.

[@BBQBARNES-GAMING]

it might not seem like a lot but those 3 stances help add so much versatility to the game

[@actionjackson8282]

Did you know… you can keybind your lightsaber, to turn it on/off manually? When I found that as a kid, I thought I was genius. Probably not a huge secret. Something about being able to turn it off after each scrap just added some flavor to the already awesome saber controls. The constant saber hum sound if you don’t turn it off got old after the 1st level with it. Wishing for a 3rd installment of this game just for the combat alone. Love the video 🍻

Grew up playing these games. Also a huge fan of Luke in TLJ. I like my characters beaten down and learning from their failures. Well, I guess I just like Luke being a character - he doesn’t really come across as one in this game. The clip you used of Luke attacking Ben Solo is from Ben’s distorted memory of the event btw.

[@BBQBARNES-GAMING]

I like characters going through a beat down arc however that should been the focus of Rey or Fin. Luke already went through one of the greatest beat down arcs made and had learned his lesson about letting emotions cloud his judgment. It also didn't help it was in a flashback instead of a developed arc that might could work but only if we had more context shown not told. Legends had dozens of stories that with simple changes could have ben great movies especially if they avoided doing a trilogy and instead have focused on unique stories outside the main plots like Rouge one or Solo

[@tristanmoore9653]

@@BBQBARNES-GAMING I feel like Rey’s arc of learning to stand on her own two feet, accepting her responsibility, and not allowing others to define her works pretty well, as does Finn’s arc of committing to a just cause. I just think the easy way to bring back Luke is have him be a wise master whose only struggles are external, when tying his fallibility into the creation of the trilogy’s main antagonist makes for a genuinely interesting dynamic. Luke’s imperfections made him relatable to me growing up; I’m glad he didn’t stop growing after RotJ. And his feat of sacrifice and heroism at the end of TLJ remains one of my fav Luke moments just for the sheer virtuosity of his use of the Force and the way he accepts his humanity while embracing his status as this mythic legend. To me, it made the two parts of Luke - the Man and the Myth - finally coexist peacefully in a way none of the Legends stories ever did.

58:17 I think the point here was exactly that: Raven knew that everyone will be too eager to use only the lightsaber so they put the player in a situation where using it is a disadvantage. They teach the player that you shouldn't rely too much on the saber and you should still use your other weapons. Be more tactical and not just hack and slash while running around. It also makes a really good point about how simple bounty hunters are able to kill Jedi which was maybe the first time that it was shown. I mean, it was said that people like Jango Fett have killed Jedi but we've never really seen it. Okay, Jango did kill Coleman Trebor in the Geonosian arena but if you ask me it was quite pathetic, meaning that Trebor must have been the lamest of all Jedi. :D

I always play Jedi Outcast at Jedi Master difficulty, but I type in console command undying (999 health) and it grants me 999 hp, then I re-type again undying so it gets turned off, because if it's on, it's kinda like God mode, you are left at 1 hp only and cannot be killed.

[@zacharyswan6836]

Second comment: I love this game and the character development Kyle goes through in it. But does Jan turning out to be alive sort of diminish the lesson learned/Kyle's development? Kyle is afraid to use the Force for fear of falling to the dark side and is even warned by Luke not to use the Force if he can't let go of his anger. He hold Tavion (defeated and defenseless) in a Force grip about to drop her into the Bespin pit band only releases her once she tells him that Jan is alive. Had Jan been dead, Kyle would've killed a defeated opponent and moved closer to the dark side. So does he really learn control and overcome and master himself or no since had it not been for things working out in his favor, he'd be on a path of vengeance and destruction and lose himself after all?

[@BBQBARNES-GAMING]

Oh had Jan not lived he would have ended Tavion for sure however i wouldn't say it diminishes the lesson but instead changes it. It becomes more about the power of hope and how even a spark of it can rekindle the coldest of hearts. This was before the whole Jedi are supposed to shun attachments stuff that the prequels created so instead it shows how important having attachments can be.

[@WMfin]

The best SW game series. Damn I hate Disney taking Kyle and this Luke away from us.

Yes this is the luke skywalker we wanted He literally refused to kill darth vader and vader was literally a mass murderer at that point and you want me to believe that he tried to kill his nephew because of a dream Nah f**k you disney. Luke from jedi knight series is canon for me

[@BBQBARNES-GAMING]

Disney has no idea what Star Wars is, Legends is the true Canon for Star Wars

JESUS CHRIST THAT'S A LONG VIDEO

[@BBQBARNES-GAMING]

Haha yeah man breakdown of every level. Took forever to edit

[@73rmin8r]

Crime lord using running a garbage collection company as a cover? When did they game come out again? 2002? Yeah, checks out. Nar Shadaa is space New Jersey confirmed.

[@BBQBARNES-GAMING]

Hey now don't insult Nar Shadaa like that

[@GorcStew]

Game structure was flawed lol. Too many levels without saber that have wonky mechanics like bad gun aiming and erratic enemy behavior and when you finally get saber...you can't use it lol Great game though

[@BBQBARNES-GAMING]

The first level wasn't bad but the Mines go on for way too long. I like the idea of making you wait but it needs to be shaved down a bit

Copyright strikes in no way effect your channel negatively. I used a bunch of John Williams music in my lightsaber unboxing video. It just means you can't monetize the video. If you're trying to make a couple bucks I guess I get it but taking the Star Wars music out of a star wars game is just lame.

[@BBQBARNES-GAMING]

I get that but That's why i replace it with KOTOR music. KOTOR has great starwars music and not copyrighted in the same way at least. The channel makes almost no money which is fine this is a fun hobby either way however, what little i can get goes to Christmas gift for the kids so like to try and keep monetization where possible

Wtf you on about
