Frankly the way they work in the Jedi games makes more sense. They have no cutting edge and nothing is hot enough to slice through matter like that. They are emitted from the hilt in a direct line, which means anything that passes through the blade should stop it and begin burning from the contact point, but not be immediately pierced.

They are scary 1 to 1 or 1 to 2-3 people because of the "extra" powers they have. With the proper guns and people they can be taken down easily. They are not some super beings that are immortal, they are just quicker. Also if the enemies stop using blasters and start using normal bullets - jedis/siths have no chance. Especially buckshot shotguns or high fire machine guns, no chance to deflect nor stop them. They are overpowered for our fun, but in reality they will be put down quite easily. :)

[@enderman7165]

Let's be fair here, a Jedi wouldn't really fight this way period. They would be using the Force on melee targets and reflecting blaster bolts back. They'd only fight like this against other lightsaber wielders. The Sith on the other hand absolutely would chop up a room and think nothing of it.

EZ, just don’t put any Sith bosses. There’s plenty of cool Star Wars enemies that can have unique attack options and thus add mechanics, like you can have a boss be a Mandalorian. If it were up to me, I’d make a game where you play as either an Old Republic Sith or an Inquisitor, therefore explaining why your character feels perfectly comfortable turning human beings into sushi. Then you make the enemies one-hit kill (but balancing that out with a fleshed-out parrying system).

I just watched Halo Season 2 Episode 4 and (spoilers) there was a scene where John-117 (The Master Chief) was about to fight an alien (I think they are called elites) and one of the other aliens interfered and shot John-117 in the back!! The alien who wanted to have a fair fight with John-117 used a plasma blade of sorts and beheaded the alien who interfered and killed her / him / it!! With this scene there was so much detail that I took it back and watched it like 5 times!! I am not into gore or blood.. but.. this injury / wound was as close as we will ever get to seeing a real plasma weapon cause a fatal wound because there was burns, smoke and even like blood!! I think it is the most realistic scene we will ever have (there is more in the Halo TV Series on Paramount+ I might add) that like shows us what a real lightsaber wound would be like!! Sadly it was Halo that gave this to us and not Star Wars that under Disney seems to be afraid to show such things and they have turned lightsabers into glow sticks and tickle electro-sticks where even being stabbed with one only requires a few days in this hospital as it heals faster than a scratch from a kitten!!

@@MatchstickMan Why can't we have both? I play games to have fun and sometimes I just want to kerb-stomp a bunch of despairing goons who are in way over their heads. Plus, as the other person said, the game can be balanced around an incredibly lethal lightsaber by having the enemies a lot more motivated to avoid getting hit by it by flanking you, running away to get a better position, throwing shit at you that you don't just casually reflect into their face, and so on. In the Jedi Knight games you could only block bullets if you were facing the direction they came from (and only blasters, but not the disruptor that was also a sniper rifle) and the grenades and rockets could only be force pushed if you had really good timing. On the other hand, you had super jump and force speed to actually give you a chance against a room full of people uniquely motivated to keep firing until you looked like charcoal. Also you didn't actually have to use a lightsaber and could just shoot your enemies with the many guns you have or throw a grenade into the room, because Kyle Katarn (and whoever is in Jedi Academy) is a pragmatist instead of a doofus blinded by tradition who can't comprehend that times have changed and Jedi aren't just fancy cops anymore.

[@MatchstickMan]

@Elriuhilu I mean. That's all well and good, and I was agreeing with you until you basically just said, make it Jedi Knight. At that point, just go play Jedi Knight. Which tbh I still do frequently. (Academy more so, because fuck Nar Shadda) but that's just it. They aren't trying to emulate that whole game. They're trying to emulate a Souls like obviously, of course you know this, but that pretty much would require lightsabers to not be super lethal like in lore because it's more about the swordplay of it. I don't mind the trade off because I already like the gameplay it offers and I like honing my ability at it. I won't disagree though that they could have both. Survivor actually does. It has a perk that's pretty much the Equalizer mode from Spider-Man where everyone goes down in one hit, but I think it makes them like. Super difficult. (Haven't actually used it yet.) And then it's just limited by the animations. Either way. Yeah, it'd be great to have both, but tbh, they shouldn't have to cater to every single different playstyle. They had intent, and they did it the way they did for a reason. And that doesn't make it less of a game. Or "lore shattering" as people like to exaggerate.

This isn’t scary this is finally an accurate depiction of what a lightsaber would do to… well virtually anything really

[@Sharp47]

Which is scary from perspective of the opponent who sees force user coming at him with that thing ignited

[@marlom7882]

@@Sharp47 good point

[@Orichikami]

Fallen order was a good game but this, this is all I wanted

[@I_Willenbrock_I]

That really is scary... Even scarier... You don't even need a light saber to cut a scull in half. Just a very sharp long sword and really good edge alignment.

[@drewwilliams7794]

The Lightsaber has got to be one of the greatest weapons in all of fiction. Largely because of how light they are means that they demand a super distinct sword-fighting style

[@andym1213]

Lightsabers are actually pretty heavy, if that’s still canonically correct. The difficulty in wielding a lightsaber is that the blade weighs nothing but the lightsaber itself is extremely heavy, so wielding one is significantly more dynamic than a sword or staff which are designed to be balanced.

[@Sharp47]

I don't know where you got the idea of lightsaber hilts being "extremely heavy" but that is absolutely incorrect and never was stated in canon

[@andym1213]

@@Sharp47 took this from a quick google search. In old interviews, including an official behind-the-scenes video called “The Birth of the Lightsaber,” George Lucas makes it clear he conceived of lightsabers as being unwieldy and “heavy” for inexperienced users.

[@andym1213]

@@Sharp47 it’s also another reason why Rey being able to suddenly duel Kylo competently moments after holding a weapon she’s never seen before is extremely stupid. You needed to train specifically with a lightsaber so you didn’t cut your own limbs off or impale yourself.

[@AnjinThomas]

@@Sharp47 Yeah, not the hilts being literally heavy. Rebels and The Mandalorian both had Sabine and Mando learning to use the darksaber and showed that when the user is inexperienced and hasn't connected with the lightsaber it feels heavy and sluggish, like it opposes their movements. But the original comment must be true for a skilled user, where the blade would feel very light

[@MrRotv]

Watching these make me imagine a new way to intruduce the jedi x sith thing. They use the same weapons, but I mean, a jedi should never use his lightsaber like this, would always try different aproaches, reflectin the shots, using the force, cutting the guns, and this would make their life a lot harder... The sith would just go out slaughtring everyone in their way. And when they finally face of this would have a greater felling. because The jedi have this destructive power, but refuse to use it.

[@thebighurt2495]

That's what a lot of the difference in the combat forms boils down to: How aggressive you are with the Saber. The Sith tend to prefer the one that's "All Out Attack" and the Prequel Era Jedi preferred the "Blocking Blaster Bolts" one. Obi-Wan switched to a heavily-defensive Dueling Form after watching his master lose a lightsaber fight. Anakin favored the "Attack Only" form (the Sith favorite), which raised a few eyebrows.

[@Elriuhilu]

I have always felt that the Sith wouldn't really use their swords very much except when forced to against other sword users ever since that bit in Return of the Jedi when the Emperor says "take your Jedi weapon" in a way that seems contemptuous. I reckon if they had to personally fight, Sith would use the Force to cause brutal injuries and make their enemies suffer to death as a terror tactic and would also mind rape their opponents into killing their friends instead of doing cool samurai stuff. I think they would rather try to manipulate events to cause their enemies to fail instead of allowing their enemies to actually face them and have a chance of winning. Why sword fight a superhuman with abilities almost as powerful as yours when you can make it difficult for them to get to you before they are exhausted by all the obstacles and suffering and minions they had to defeat to get close enough for you to gloat as you crush their hope and self image before killing them? On a related note, I much preferred the old explanation of why Sith had red swords: that the Jedi controlled all the natural crystal caves so the Sith were forced to use artificial crystals to build their lightsabers (if they even bothered to build one).

[@MrRotv]

@@Elriuhilu Man, that was great, really enjoyed this

[@robertblake7824]

That's actually a horrifying weapon

[@DM-kl4em]

This is like Stormtrooper Fruit Ninja.

[@DaniG._.German]

They are shooting at him, how uncivilized.

[@kodiak_9169]

I don’t know why but when I see gameplay of the sequel to this and when I see the force unleashed gameplays of 1 & 2 they both have a familiar turn towards gameplay mechanics

[@alexmathews3374]

Just imagine a pvp mode just like in battlefront 2 but more like this an force abilities of your choice for each of the jedi and sith

[@Elriuhilu]

You mean like Jedi Academy multiplayer? The pinnacle Star Wars pvp experience that still hasn't been surpassed?

[@mukti1391]

Please more gameplay w this mod

[@Sharp47]

Check my Ahsoka video from yesterday. Also more are incoming.

[@justadummy8076]

You mean when lightsabers are lightsabers and not glow-in-the-dark baseball bats

[@Walnutty]

this is how i wished the star wars game looked like. Super beautiful flow with the combat with no stupid limits for spesific movements. All it needed to be genuine game of the year is the focus of the Force and how powerful that is. (Star wars the force unleashed is the best example of that. reason why that is the best star wars game of all)

[@egorpro7135]

This is jedi survivor?

[@DeathMetalThrasher]

Yes. A modded one

[@SamuroTV]

I never understood why they took the dismemberment off in the new Star Wars games. Makes no sense, the "sword" feels like a wooden stick with burnmarks.

[@someteennamedcharles2035]

DISNEY: nah, those Stormtroopers are still fine and alive.

[@Eco19]

This is all ive been asking of any starwars game since jr high

[@zepho100]

That would cause so much fear seeing your buddy get cut in half like that.

[@xaayer]

he was merciful to the stormtrooper at 1:40. By only stabbing him in the gut, that stormtrooper survived and went on to live a happy life.

[@BrandonnPhm2140]

No wonder why Palpatine and the Sith scared of jedis with Yellow Lightsaber the most.

[@overlordjames6644]

Imagine going all Metal Gear Rising in a Star Wars game.

[@Greenicegod]

The way the engine seems to support slicing the models at any angle with full ragdoll physics... It's stunning with a weapon like a lightsaber.

[@tSp289]

Playing this game with this mod, and reading the description of the stormtroopers being forced conscripts from the dominated worlds, hearing them give you a chance to surrender etc... "Are we the baddies?" It's complicated.

[@Khalif-AllahEntertainment]

GOD DAMN. it's nice to see what a lightsaber is truly capable of. It deserves respect and fear.

[@isaiahhellems7901]

I really like the scout troopers turning into normal stormtroopers when they die

[@massdestruction9909]

This is how star wars games should be like. One swipe is all it should take, it's a lightsaber for crying out loud 😅

[@zzzzy42]

So civilized.

[@Eeveefall]

It would be cool if Disney let this be a thing in the game. But probably best if the lightsaber works this way when the enemy is low in health and is one swipe from being killed. Otherwise the game wouldn't be difficult at all and the difficulty would probably have to be made in blocking shots which doesn't sound entirely fun as what we have.

[@SwordSaint_Y]

Force Unleashed is the closest we’ve ever gotten

[@winter_chills]

meanwhile Disney: people survive being impaled and they only get scratched when in contact

[@enlightenmentdoesntcomeeas5337]

This is exactly the kind of carnage I would expect from a plasma sword as hot as the surface of the sun.

[@kirank287]

I love this game so much. This was awesome. All black with yellow saber looks great, just like Luke with all black and green saber

[@bindair_dundat]

Imagine the cleanup crew after that. "You say one man did all this?"

[@chikoroooo]

Look at ground is also scratched with lightsaber details are so pretty

[@zumogerstubchen2340]

This physics with a slow mo effect whenever you kill someone with your lightsaber like in Jedi Knight II and it would be perfection.

[@ImaginaShip]

Those stormtroopers will be okay so long as they’re angry enough.

[@leeleavelle716]

An elegant weapon he says as he bisects a storm trooper, for a more civilized age hes says as he removes the top of anothers skull

"Oh its just a plasma blade, what's the worst it could do- OH MY GOD!!!"

[@zeta4687]

when you realized it basically cut anything like butter you know how scary it is some young jedi even cut themself when training

[@waylingtons]

We really need an adult Star Wars with these kind of physics. Gore and darkness would really show the power of the light Sabre.
