Amazing Gameplay

This game is all about the gameplay. The force abilities and puzzles requiring rapid use of those abilities are SOOO fun. So while the story is much weaker than the other Jedi Knight games, it is still an installment worthy of your time. This game is just fun, pure and simple. The lightsaber and force battles are difficult enough to frustrate you while still feeling like you have appropriate control (whereas Dark Forces II sometimes felt like your light saber strikes and blocks were a bit random).

They don't make them like they used to

I was pretty young when Jedi Academy came out, and didn't play it for a few years until after its release at a friend's house. I remember having the time of our lives playing multiplayer, but I never stuck around to buying the game. Fast forward more than a decade and I've gotten a seasoned taste of video gaming, but mostly on modern games. So when I saw this thing for sale, I knew this would be my one purchase of the month. Jedi Academy is an absolute JOY to play. To those who played games of the earlier days, the controls and momentum of movement should make you feel at home. Born of the Quake 3 engine, the movement is slick, the shooting is excellent, and the devs did some straight witchcraft with their lightsaber system. No other game has as interesting or rapid a combat melee system. You're on GoG, so you're not here for the graphics (which still have better faces look better than Oblivion) but they're definitely passable; textures aren't too muddy and the lightsabers and guns look great. Textures are more visibly weak on open levels, but are made up with set piece meshes. Now, I haven't played most newer Star Wars games but when I say they don't make them like they used to, I meant gaming in general. Remember when you could get crushed by objects that compressed you? Remember when you could use your force grip and use it to slam enemies into the ground or other enemies and actually kill them? Thank the Quake Three engine. You don't see this kind of thing in newer games unless it's a scripted gimmick that advertisers and devs rave about. Meanwhile you can send enemies absolutely flying by doing any combination of abilities using the force without a tutorial telling you. The game's a touch easy once you learn the force powers and how they work and while the campaign is very fun, it's very easy to burn through it after the first playthrough. None the less, Jedi Academy is one of the most fun games I've had the pleasure of playing. Buy it!

No jedi games give you this much control

This game and Jedi Outcast are amazing, though this game feels like a glorified expansion pack, I realize this may be off putting but don't fret, it has good play time, the online component still works and their are still severs up (both this and jedi knight as well) in this game you play Jaden, You create jaden to your preferences at the start, race, sex, looks, and you can choose your saber. its rad. you choose which powers you learn. at the start of every mission (except 3 major story ones) you pick a power to level up from 8 power, 4 light, 4 dark. there is multiple endings based on where you put your points, dark vs light. They added dual sabers and staff saber, the mechanics are great, the levels are intuitive and way less frustrating that jedi knight (still amazing though) its really hard to go wrong with this game. It doesn't support widescreen in the options however you can change the resolution using console (shift+tilde) and it saves permanently. look up the console command and be sure to adjust the FOV as well.

A Personal Favorite! :D

While I don't have the GOG digital copy, I still have the discs I bought for my old XP computer many years ago. From time to time, I re-install it and remember how good this game was. My school friends all loved KOTOR, but Jedi Academy was my jam. As a long-time STAR WARS fan, I was blown away with the first and third person lightsaber action. The gameplay is fluid and natural- for me it leaves little to be desired. There are plenty of missions and a moral choice systems that determines what force alignment you end up as. You should totally get it if you like STAR WARS even just a little bit.
