Glorified 3D Platform Game

If it's one genre of games that has never really appealed to me, in all my years of gaming, it's platformers. And to all intents and purposes, that's what The Force Unleashed is. Leap up here, leap up there, toss around some Jawas or Stormtroopers, then leap around some more. Although you can use a controller, as a PC gamer, I've always preferred mouse and keyboard. The problem there is that because it's a console port, the controls are horribly optimised and with all that leaping around, or combo jumps and attacks, it just gets tedious. Especially when trying to time much jumping around to reach yet another platform, but fail repeatedly because the input method timing is poor. Fighting is dull and repetitive, so I ended up tossing enemies off platforms most of the time. Although that was novel and amusing at first, it soon became tiresome too. Then there's boss fights with QTEs, which are just a chore. However, all that aside the story is pretty good, as are the graphics and surroundings, with plenty of activity in each area to make them feel alive. The sound effects, musical score, and voice acting, are all excellent too. As a Star Wars fan, I'll probably give it another try in the future, but after getting half-way through and just not feeling inspired to continue, perhaps The Force will be with me in a future attempt.

What a shitty port

I've played this on many consoles and got it on PC thinking it would be better than all the rest..I was wrong. This port is absolute fucking garbage and the level design on some of the levels (Raxus prime and Felucia) is fucking garbage, I found myself sliding off invisible walls and not landing on platforms when I jump due to wierd invisible walls and no grab or auto grab feature (fucking why?) this game is amazing but the port and some of the level design can be fucking atrotious. This game is in serious need of a autobath.

Do you like God of War?

Pros: -Great story. -Fun force powers. -No political bullshit. -Cool/wide variety of cristals and pasive abilities. -Awesome levels(Most open to exploration,more later) -Great replayability. -Cool animations and God of War like kills. -Mutilation(TFU2 does it better though) -Cool outfits and great graphics. -Compelling, great main character. -rewarding leveling system, Highly. -Satisfying power upgrades(You can see it and it applies to skins as well). -'Easy' learning curve(Depends on the person, for me it was) -Wide enemy variety. -Cool/satisfying Dlc's(JT). -You can play as Vader and kick the shit out of everyone. -Sith/Jedi ending. -Cool/ amazing force combos. -Training Room. -Autosave/manual save. -Great UI and Menu. Freaking love it mate. -You fight literally everyone, well almost. -Levels are wisely done so you can't get bored(Depends) with really cool stuff you can use to explode stuff or just have fun. -Everything(Almost) is destroyable. -Great physics, you can break a spaceships windows and the clones go swallowed by space(Example) -Amazing dodge system, and great force powers. Read how to do them if you don't the game gets boring. You'll be using 2 out of 20. -Mindless fun. Cons: -Cluncky controls. -Sometimes force powers don't work(Controller at least). -Frustrating combat(Overwhelmed by enemies or insta-killed, Kazdan Paratus comes to mind). -Unskipable cutscenes. -Poor replayability(Depends on you, it's my fifth time beating it, fifth? Tenth more like it), lacks combats from the PSP version or the endless waves and the DLC. Fuck exclusivity, am I right? -Buggy levels(Time to time, sometimes is enjoyable though). -You play as Vader only once. -Training room sucks, more like slaughter room. No option to customize enemies. -Bugs/issues, minor and mayor alike, depends on the system, the game is old after all. -Funny, sometimes stupid AI. Others they kick your ass for good. Veredict: IT IS A GAME. MUST BUY OR TRY.

Bad Port, OK Game

OK to keep this short and sweet, the gameplay is fun whenever you are not in a boss fight or in the odd normal encounter. The main problem here is how the camera fights the controls, namely when it considers you to be locked on to a target. Sometimes the camera will refuse to consider an enemy on your screen even if it clearly is or you are facing it. The lock on matters a great deal as things like lightning, grab, and throw won't work unless the game considers an enemy highlighted or locked on. This saps a lot of fun and introduces frustration in it's stead. These issues are compounded in the boss fights where the camera is at odds with the arena. Secondly, the game should not be played without a controller,and I don't like controllers. The controls for indicating direction for throws/pulls etc require mouse and keyboard simultaneously, which is super bloody awkward. Many times objects can be thrown in random directions oreven clearly glitch out, resulting in wasted effort and your exposure to enemy fire pointlessly. Lastly, this is such an arcade game system. Jump through shiny powerups for rewards and buffs, which totally take you out of the other engaging combat that wants you to keep killing in order to heal. Get it only on a deep sale or on console, and I mean DEEP. Thats the only time I'd recommend this. Not on PC from GOG.

Far worse than Jedi Academy

When I saw this game on sale, I thought - man I will finally lay my hands on the one SW game I'm still missing in my collection! I couldn't be more disappointed.. Of course, some might say that there are a lot of costumes, force powers, the game is dynamic and flashy. You can even play as and fight against Darth Vader! However this is a Star Wars game. It supposed to tell us a story. No, not a story - the Story! We should feel like a sith, or a jedi, or whatever character we are playing. Instead, what we get here is a shooter console port without guns, but with bad camera and subpar lightsaber combat. The game mechanics are really oversimplified. Quite quickly I've asked myself -what's the point of all I do? What is my Starkiller doing except flying around and killing everybody? I'm a big fan of SW saga but this time I didn't have patience to kill even the third jedi boss, which is as I believe about 1/6 of the game. I'm giving SW:TFU only 2 stars and I'm not sure if it shouldn't be 1. Let me begin with bright sides. Not to be positive, just because there are so few: +++++++PROS+++++++ - Star Wars game! - You can control and throw objects! - graphics are not so bad, even in 2017 - characters move quite well... ok, I was trying, this should be in graphics part ----------CONS----------- 1. Game mechanics! - You can't save when you want, for example right after the boss fight, but before jumping from platform to platform - srsly, PC game,where you have to reach a checkpoint? - Camera works a bit strange, which sometimes complicates the fight - Camera in boss fights works really very strange! And I mean it! The whole game is TPP and suddenly it goes flat isometric just for these few times in a game - Game menu - no mouse, you need to use additional buttons [] with arrows to navigate through menu. Was it really so hard to simplify controls for PC and add mouse control over menu? - Jumping- as I recall, even master Yoda was unable to bounce and dash in the middle air. Really, neither jedi, nor sith in any other game jump like here. - Bad lightsaber mechanics - JK:O and Academy have shown how realistic lightsaber combat can and should be. Especially with 'lightsaber realistic combat: on'. Here we have little control over l-s and more importantly the opponents have hitboxes... so you can't just cut off somebody arm and hear his screams. Pity ;) 2. Game design: - a lightsaber held backwards, like Ashoka in Clone Wars series- why?! - a story wasn't really interesting. This is Star Wars and I was expecting something groundshaking - a lot of jumping, which as I've mentioned earlier isn't my favourite in SW:TFU - a lot of places,where you should clearly be able to jump, but you can't because... they are designed to block your jump :) - boss and some enemies fights, where you don't really know what are you expected to do except rapid pressing of LMB -forced on players finishing blows cutscenes, taken straight from console - press 'E' quickly! now press 'Q' quickly! Good work, you defeated the boss! There is no workaround,no way to turn this 'feature' off(like in the 'withcher') and some people (like me) would really prefer to kill enemies in traditional way
