Everything GREAT About Star Wars The Force Unleashed 2!

[@jasonl8681]

Getting Sam Witwer into acting for Star Wars was this series' greatest victory. And Vader being a bit of a theatrical drama-queen is 100% on brand for the Force wielder formerly known as Anakin Skywalker.

A big reason as to why Maul and Starkiller are so popular, Sam's voice acting.

If they remade force unleashed, but combines both games into one long thought out story, it would be godly

[@LordStarkillerII]

That could be interesting they would have to change 2's start to be more like him waking up from a dream-esk thing in the cell than Vader just walking in on him so it feels like it's Starkiller waking up from being dead not a clone at first just so it's less jarring to die and then be back, and plus new peeps would assume it's a fake out again like it was mid way through the first game

[@jacoblansman8147]

5:19 the similarity between Ahsoka and Galen's lightsaber stances is not a coincidence when you consider they both had the same master. Anakin may not have trained Ahsoka before she became his apprentice but Jedi tend to become highly proficient in the stance that their master prefers - Anakin preferred Form V (as did many Jedi during the Clone Wars) and so Ahsoka, regardless of what she was previously taught, would have learned Form V the most from him. When Anakin became Vader, he used all 7 Forms relatively equally in his own personal style (with the only real exception being Form IV I think), which he had to master because of how his cybernetics had changed him. He was no longer agile, so he became a wall. But he would still have taught Galen everything about lightsaber combat and Galen, either by coincidence or via picking up on subtle cues from Vader during Form V demonstrations, chose Form V has his preference too. The reverse grip is something that can be used with the more complex Forms (I've never heard of a master of Form I, II or III utilizing a reverse grip), while all 7 Forms can be utilized with a single lightsaber, dual lightsabers, a saberstaff (aka double-bladed lightsaber, like Maul), saber club/shoto (oversized and undersized variants of any lightsaber, designed for larger or smaller beings).

[@dominikberger412]

so i researched it and it is called Jar'Kai in Legends (Source: jedipedia). Galen, Asajj and Ahsoka used them all and its actually a type of Form VI. And yes reverse grip for the first 3 would be just too bad with too many disadvantages.

[@jacoblansman8147]

@@dominikberger412 my source (Wookieepedia) says Jar'Kai is not a lightsaber form in the same sense that Forms I-VII are - rather, it's a method of using any of those Forms by wielding two lightsabers instead of one. Jar'Kai is distinct in terms of wielding two lighsabers at once but in terms of the actual combat, it is very similar to Forms IV, V and VI.

I would still love to have a third game that branched off of whatever ending you chose… another KOTOR as well. Both extremely well-made series

[@JustinVanTrump]

The (at the time canonical) ending was the light side one as that is what the novel ended with and it set up a third game perfectly, sadly we all know what happened there, Disney bought the franchise and ruined most of it

[@TheKueiJin]

I hope to god they never touch either. I absolutely loathed the story of Fallen Shitter, with the worst possible characters in existence. HK-47 might have been the best droid in the KOTOR games but i remember all the other characters too. The droid in Fallen Order is the only one that actually deserves to be paid for the acting. The writers for the rest of the characters should have been fired day one, and anyone else in the game deleted. While KOTOR games did combat horribly, it made up for with characters, story, environment, THEME. Fallen Shitter is entirely sub-par... sub par combat, better in all the games before KOTOR, has utterly ridiculous story. Better in a fucking Star Wars DANCING GAME. Atrocious characters, the bug eye lady still disgusts me with how useless and fucking badly she was written, not to mention how alien she looks. And for all the shit that i throw at Jedi Fallen Order, it's still the best star wars game that came out in the last 10 years, hands down, no questions asked, and I replay it every now and again because it really is a decent game, but THAT'S why i don't want Disney/EA to touch the games, because even their best is just barely mediocre. Star Wars needs to be given to a dev that is actually capable. Give it to Arkane, to Obsidian, at this point i'd say even Treyark and i frigging loathe CoD too. Just stop beating the dead horse with more crappy movies and games.

[@JustinVanTrump]

@@TheKueiJin Or you can actually pay attention to the story more than anything and actually enjoy what you do get, also clearly you never played SWTOR which is constantly updated and guess what, is made by EA and is more or less a continuation of KOTOR/KOTOR 2 and is actually a really well put together MMORPG Star Wars PC game

[@jeambeam3173]

We're getting KOTOR remake but who knows what's gonna happen because remake implies there still gonna use the original story but I don't trust Disney not to fuck it up in some way

[@TheKueiJin]

@@JustinVanTrump oh I'm so glad you mentioned the ruin of BioWare. I'm glad you're fan-boying about the destruction of any good faith one might have had for BioWares take on Star Wars. I mean one would think that way considering the emo girly-man that they considered would be the logical next step for Revan. From shrewd, calculating, master manipulator to a slit-wrist, the-only-dark-being-his-bangs whiney pissant that he is in TOR. Yeah... Awesome. And now let's focus on what they did afterwards. Considering the horrible necrophilia that is the book Revan, where they utterly watery-shat upon Obsidian's, reverting both the web of intricacies that Traya cast over Revans actions as well as Traya herself. Then the "game" picks up the slack and utterly ruins the maybe-Exile. Turning her into a fucking force ghost. The one that at the end of it all could not fucking connect to the frigging force, is now a fucking force ghost. While i do talk shit about TOR, cuz it isn't even a good MMO, it does have amazing parts. Namely the cutscenes. Never in my life have i seen better contained stories within what's supposed to be a trailer, the people that made those trailers should have been given free reign to the franchise, and we'd prolly have been happier as a whole. But the previous mention that Jedi Fallen Order is the best content of SW that we have had in the last 10 years, still stands.

[@colinsearfoss-smith5523]

I still hope that Disney decides to bring back Galen. It would be easy due to the introduction of the Inquisitors. All they would have to do is make Galen picked up during the first 10ish years and Vader takes a particular liking to him due to his sheer natural power

[@ryanscanlon2151]

You know what would be bad ass? If Kenobi gets a second season Galen is the antagonist being sent to hunt down Obiwan instead of the inquisitors.

[@virgiljianu7166]

1:57 I think the reason why he still went along with Vader even after everything that happened has to do with his mental state in general. He might not admit it, but deep inside he seems to be torn apart by what he's doing. The line he gives to Organa on Felucia after beating Maris pretty much sums it up: ,,You really think she's free? She'll carry the memories of what she's done here......Forever....." Even though he has been nothing but a slave to Darth Vader this whole time, he still sticks by him because he has nothing else, nobody else. He's a monster and Vader was the only one who would take him in (at least as far as he sees it). That's not to mention the fact that he doesn't know of another life apart from serving Vader, surely he must have conditioned him even since he took him in to never question what he does and just focus on doing it. He was the only ,,parent" that he ever had, so he has somewhat of a emotional connection to him (it could also be the thing from the RDR series as you put it: when it comes to family people have big blindspots that are hard to reveal). I think that if he had managed to survive the encounter on the Death Star, he could have started a new life, but it was too little too late for him. The Starkiller clone, on the other hand, has no such emotional attachments to Vader. That, along with the newly gained memories, experiences and lessons from the old Starkiller, pretty much gives him all he needs to free himself from Vader. In conclusion, I think it makes a lot of sense why the OG Starkiller stood by Vader until he tried to kill him while the clone, after getting that specific memory, had everything he needed to flee.

[@tylerbaldwin3269]

You summed up my thoughts exactly. OG Starkiller had so much conditioning to not overthrow Vader, despite fully being capable of doing so

[@Mitchel7]

See I loved this series. It was one of my favorites. Every once in a while I find myself going back and watching the scene where galen gets off the elevator and as he tries to find Vader or Juno he keeps getting surprised and the environment gets all hazy and almost something out of a horror movie. Then the voices he hears of Juno is great. The one that always stuck with me was the line from Kota which is, " You're Vader's puppet. Just a body filled with the memories of a dead man." The first time I ever heard that while playing gave me chills. Another thing I loved was the interactions between galen and Vader when they locked sabers. My favorites were during the final phase is when galen is going full super saiyan on Vader and it is just phenomenal and almost heart-rending. The three of course being, #1: galen: I'll kill you! Vader: Rise above this. She means nothing. #2: Vader: her death gives you strength. Embrace it. Galen: I will kill you! Vader: if you wish to join the woman, so be it. #3: Vader: she loved a dead man. She would've never loved you. Galen: YOU WILL DIE WHERE YOU STAND. Just that whole sequence is mind blowing and one of the best things I remember. When I think about iconic or scenes that make players stop in their tracks I'd like to think this is one of them. At least for me anyway. I'd love to hear everyone else's thoughts

I always took Vaders last lines as him saying "The jedi were right; Attachment will lead to fear and pain and you wear your fears around your neck. Fears I will use as a leash until you do what I could not; let go" Also with that scene, vader is looking from left to right and Galen from right to left. As we know, in a lot of screenplays when a character is moving forward is is from left to right on screen. I think this was on purpose. I think you could say it was to show that in the end, no matter what Vader does, as he moves forward, Galen will always be focused on him up until the/his end Great video as always, friend!

Ok regarding the Empire shifting away from clones in Legends. You're half right. As far back as 2005 was the idea of the Empire Diversifying their recruitment. In the OG Battlefront II, there's a mission where the 501st and Boba Fett put down a Clone Rebellion on Kamino. The Emperor believed that a Clone Army from a Single template was too susceptible to corruption and would clone from other sources as well as enlisted recruits.

10:18- there was something about decommissioning clones. the OG battlefront 2s campaign mode, which i believe is cannon had a reason for the clones being decommissioned.

[@AustenHilton]

I wish we would've got a force unleashed 2 with actual dev time and a force unleashed 3 to finish the trilogy

[@gallifreyarchives4434]

Hopefully one day you do the dlc. Or maybe the KOTOR games. Would love to see you do Revan’s games.

[@johnmccurdy5019]

I’d do anything for a remake of these two games but expand the game/story in the 2nd specifically

[@jfb173jb]

The style Starkiller uses is probably form 5. Just like Vader and Ahsoka. The latter just uses the Shien variant compared to Anakin. Also her and Starkiller use Jar'Kai, which is the twin saber style.

[@zombiebadgr]

I remember playing this game and just trying everything to slice off stormtrooper parts. I do miss these damn games.

[@marco8414]

I'd like to see a more tame Galen Marek come back. Maybe like a 'Sith' counterpart to the Jedi series with Cal Kestis.

[@c0baltl1ghtn1ng]

I remember playing both games, and I remember them fondly, though the latter got particularly difficult around the end. Also I believe 1138 is often referencing the first movie as well. "Prisoner transfer from cell block one-one-three-eight."

At Star Wars celebration, Sam Witwer signed my Kobe’s with the quote “You’ve taken everything from me.” This went down at the same time Ewan McGregor surprised everyone on stage. While my friend in the crowd started the Kenobi chant you can hear through the video, I happily talked to my favorite person to ever work on Star Wars. He’s starkiller 😂

[@davidpumpkinsjr.5108]

This game teasing a sequel that was never made reminds me of how they did the same thing with "Jedi Starfighter". As long as you're doing older games where the franchise ended before a proper resolution, consider the "Legacy of Kain" series.

[@strwrz1]

While I loved the first game with a passion, the second game failed so spectacularly that I just couldn’t feel the same. Beating it in, like, 3 hours was just unacceptable for a game I bought the Special edition of. Plus there was absolutely nothing to do on Dagobah. Honestly I believe this game and it’s predecessor should get a remake. If for no other reason than to a) finish the story and b) make the second game longer with combat that doesn’t shoehorn you in to finishing your combo with an aerial attack. Yes, I remember this stuff.

One thing I do love about this game is how dismissive Vader is of Galen's obsession with Juno. You touched on at 11:13 how Galen is a lot more like Vader than he would admit. Galen's obsession with Juno doesn't remind Vader of his past obsession with Padme, that we can tell at least. It's been nearly 2 decades since she died, and I like to think that Vader by this point has accepted Padme's death and moved on to the point where he doesn't think of her or "what could have been" anymore, and that he is somewhat comfortable with the way things turned out. At this point in his life there's no Padme or Luke, arguably no good in him, and all that matters to Vader is power. His 3 goals are a strong and efficient government, the destruction of the Jedi and the Rebellion, and aspiration to kill Palpatine and become emperor.

Starkiller is the doom slayer of star wars. I like to use the experimental jedi armor as like his praetor suit

[@JK_of_Today]

Going back to this game after playing fallen order and jedi survivor really makes me realize how much I miss these games. Something about the force unleashed just hits harder than fallen order or survivor ever could. Not that they’re bad games. The gameplay is fun despite being less flashy and I love Cal, I think he’s an amazing character. He’s actually my second favorite Star Wars character behind Starkiller. But something about the dumb fun of the force unleashed, how powerful you feel, Sam’s performance, the pure badass nature of how cool Starkiller is with his double lightsabers and the way he holds them, the more linear gameplay without all the boring side missions. I can only hope the force unleashed comes back somehow. Whether they remake or reboot the series or canonize the first two games and make a third game. I’m tired of star wars games getting shafted. We need to return to what made them great. Amazing single player experiences, not multiplayer trash.

[@EchoCT1409]

Love the look of the member of Kit Fisto’s species in the colosseum that fights Kota

[@LloydaciousD]

So you talk about the Jabba cameo (5:22), but neglect to mention that all the statues in that room are of Guybrush Threepwood (Mighty Pirate) from the Monkey Island games, and if you destroy them all you get to play as him in Galen's jedi garb for the rest of the game. It's one of my favourite easter egg unlocks of all time.

[@SeeThroughScreen]

Blessing our feeds with TWO back to back vids!

[@lonereapa935]

This being my first Star Wars game I think it was an amazing introduction to these type of games

[@knoxvilles-spider-man5719]

lol love how vader is all confused “the force??” 0:39

[@juanmar7in3z40]

I wish that they could do a soft reboot of this series, take some of a the good story ideas and make it fit into the canon. Maybe we’d finally get the third game we always wanted

[@demonblade001]

I love to think that vader saw starkillers reverse hilt and just said "you've got to be kidding me!" Thinking of ahsoka.

[@jeerree9568]

Sam in the star wars franchise was a dream come true as star killer through my childhood and maul. To more.

[@pvtwatcher4883]

I love how at 8:55 there’s a slight loading error and you can just see the eyeballs pop in for a second lmao

[@Oden-gp8xu]

Some of Galen’s hallucinations of Juno’s voice may not have been hallucinations, but infact referring to Vader as “a monster, a thing”

[@CrusadinSlayin]

Can we talk about the deliver that Galen gave to Vader? "You HAVE taken everything from me!" just for Vader to spill out "Your feelings for her are not real" "They're REAL TO ME!" Like HOT damn, years later this game still gives me chills.

[@HoundHimself]

that pleasant surprise to see an upload with short downtime in between!

[@walmartshoppingcart8118]

Galen appearing in Jedi survivor would be a great way to introduce him into cannon and Disney should definitely make a remake based on how the game was originally intended to be made without the rush

[@lonecourierjoeyv2133]

“I shudder to think how we’d hold 3 if there was a 3rd game” Dual bladed lightsaber in one hand & a regulsr in the other hand

[@justinharvey7398]

5:32 I'm so happy someone else loves that "..But" as much as I do!

[@AlexLarning]

I always thought it was wierd that the "flashbacks" you get in jedi mind trick scene. That they are future in game but you explaining it makes sence
