Fun the first time, poor replay value
I first played this game back in September 2008, when it was first released on Xbox 360. I had forgotten how good this game looked for the time and I have to give LucasArts credit for the convincing cloth simulation they used, considering many games I played in later years still had characters wearing robes and skirts that looked like they were glued to their pants. There's more depth to the combat system than is apparent at first glance, too. At it's core it may be hack-and-slash with a dose of powers for flair but it does reward creativity. The destructible environment aspect was hyped a lot prior to release, though honestly, in 2019, it's nothing to write home about. They are a gimmick that are mainly showcased in the first two levels. After that, it's limited to destroying obstacles to progress. As far as enemy behaviors, they'll sometimes grab onto a ledge when at risk of falling or will grab an ally in a last ditch effort to save themselves from your Grip power, though that's really the extent of the realistic behaviors that was also hyped prior to release. The story was a decent addition to the old Expanded Universe that sought to tell the story of how the Rebel Alliance was formed. The voice acting is extremely well done and the original characters introduced are for the most part likeable, though there is little reason to play the game after watching the canon light side ending beyond getting the alternate dark side ending, trying out the new costumes, maxing out combos, talents and powers and completing all the secondary objectives. The only alternate gameplay mode is a series of simulated battles against the AI which offer no in-game rewards and the three DLC missions don't really offer anything new in terms of gameplay, with the only selling point being that two of them follow a "what if" setting after the dark side ending. Play it for the story, but there is little to see and do after the credits roll.
Hilft dir das weiter?
