@Bad Drivers Of The NorCal Area I love those games too but I can’t agree that the lightsaber combat is better in them. Being able to switch styles and use other weapons was great though
@Niall The Jedi Knight games were amazing. Their combat is FAR superior. What is with everyones obsession in playing a weak character that struggles to do the most basic tasks?
@Bad Drivers Of The NorCal Area would you prefer it to just one shot everything? Play the Jedi knight games and tell me this combat is worse. More true to the films maybe but definitely not as enjoyable
@Rev Anims I just hope that we have more finisher animations than the last game, cause the last game got pretty stale after you’ve seen the same 2 or 3 finishers get done on the same enemies. Plus I hope there’s a variety of outfits, not just re-colors of the same outfits either. Actually let us get Jedi Robes and armor this time. I would love that. I would’ve loved to have Jaro Topal’s armor in the first game. His looked really bad ass and reminded me of Obi-Wan’s clone wars armor.
Why can't more studios take note of how much people love this game. It feels like the obi wan game i grew up playing and loving. No extra multiplayer garbage. Just a fantastic story and game
I loved the game, but "fantastic story" ehmmm.... Storytelling, dialogues and character writing were definitely the weak points of Fallen Order in my opinion. Not terrible but definitely not good. Hope they improved for this one
@nih sa lmao typical example of elitist nerd gatekeeping hard. Play on hardest difficulty and it's definitely a Souls like. Lack of cutscenes and platforming aren't the key features of Souls games idiot
I love how they used more videos from gameplay than the cinematic. Really shows the devs hard work into the game and putting it in the spotlight. Edit: We hit it lads, 10k likes.... 🥲
@Kakashi 69 that argument makes no sense. You have duel wield (crowd control) and single blade (single focus). That’s the crux of the DS weapon system. By your same logic, would a lightsaber in the shape of an axe suddenly make it a souls like? No of course not. But I may as well be speaking another language to you, because you clearly don’t have the slightest clue what defines a souls like game. Your comment is laughable. Thanks for playing though. Google is your friend
@StarLord94 that was the first sensical reply I received, so thank you 😂 knowing EA I still think it’s a more of a ripoff than an inspired idea. They have little creativity. but thank you for not making stuff up like so many before you.
@Ryuk look at elden ring look at wo long dynasty they’re both souls like games that really don’t story cutscenes or really cutscenes at all unless for certain bosses not to mention the vast majority of weapons you can squire with both games but with fallen order you only have a lightsaber with that logic dishonored would also be a souls like since she/he for both characters only using a knife for the first game and getting a cross bow in the second
Looks pretty solid! Really hope we have all the abilities and that from the first game in this one right from the get go but if not it’s still cool! Looking forward to it
I like how they focused on showing gameplay instead of exposing too much like who the guy in the tank missing an arm is or how they don't show the Sith guy on Coruscant. Makes you excited to play the game without giving away the surprise of experiencing the story for yourself.
It looks solid, I'm just now playing through the first game and I'm surprised how good it is considering it's from 2019, the gameplay, customization, and story are just so satisfying without being to easy or to hard
From what’s it this trailer I can tell the lightsaber customisation is going to be even better than Fallen order, with the cosmetic packs including lightsabers from the movies like Obi-Wan’s lightsaber and Luke’s I can’t wait to see who else’s lightsabers are going to be in the game. I’d love to see the darksaber, Kylo Ren’s, the inquisitor’s, Maul’s and Vader’s lightsabers added to the game
i cant wait. hes clearly grown physically and in skill which just brings me back to return of the jedi when luke was more masterful of his connection to the force and truly became a jedi. and im not gonna lie i screamed a little when i saw the cross guard. hopefully we can choose where the energy vents kinda like in swtor with peacekeeps lightsabers venting out the bottom or the saber staff having it vent in the middle
the identical likeness of Cal to his voice actor says a lot about mocap and gaming advancements, but, also says, he may indeed be brought into the live action, the transition is basically flawless...
What I love the most is that respawn have listened to the fans, there's more customization options, more force abilities, bigger worlds, more ways to traverse, it looks like you can fly the mantis now and the split lightsaber isn't just a move you can do. This looks amazing, can't wait
@The Film Watcher lots of people still use ps4s though, seeing as a ps5 is double or even triple the price of what ps4s were. How hard would it be to just port it to ps4 so as not to alienate millions of players?
Cameron Monaghan needs to play Cal in a live action Role 100%. this game looks like its built on the success of the last installment and may even have improved drastically on gameplay and mechanics. really looking forward to this 1.
I hope we do see the relationship between him and merrin explored. The first game felt weird between them she meets him and then five minutes later is specifically asking about the female he's traveling with(I could be looking to far into that but still) and then we see them warp to another planet and we have to assume they didn't rest because they're trying to get the Holocron so maybe there's one night rest between she meets them and they grab the Holocron from the temple. She saves him from drowning and then when he wakes up she gives him a hug like a schoolgirl? Just seemed a little rushed her openness to him and her touchiness with him. All other iterations we've seen of night sister have been cold and callous to everyone but she's super quick to care about cal a lot.
Love the fact that despite being 5 years later and more skilled, he still gets beaten up from time to time. Proves that he's still human and vulnerable, love that about his character, and Cameron pulls it of flawlessly
@Stoned Deer theres literally bonfires and a skill system where if u die u have to back to the enemy that killed you to get your exp back. Theres dodging and parrying melee combat. Its a souls like, not as hard but is still
@Oceanman44 I could not believe it so i had to see it my own eyes. I made this comment before but witcher 1 is released at 2007 and first souls game is at 2009. So why not witcher-like. What a small but ridiculous analogy. After all, the fact that steam is a big gaming platform does not mean that everything it contains is correct.
@MovieLover Sure there are optional bosses, but not even that hard if you compare it with trilla, I want some sparring against obi wan, darth vader and so on, heck- even windu, luke or yoda!
Um.... what? there are loads of secret bosses in the first game: Ogdo Bogdo Nydak Alpha Albino Wyyyshlock Bing Droid Hunter Huntsman... All of the Bounty Hunters
1. Cal's age change perfectly reflects his actor's. 2. Not only mounts but mounted combat? Yes please. 3. Crossguard lightsaber looks like a separate weapon/weapon style and I am all for it.
@Bad Ape lol agreed, shit should be super fast. definitely a fan of the slower, more "greatsword" style of swinging, to counter the fast, "dual shortsword" type combat of the dual blades, but a "real" lightsabre, would be used much more like a laser pointer, or "beatsaber"
@Bad Ape This has always been one of my sticking points. Regardless of hilt, the standard sabre of space-wizard-knights should be a longer mostly two-handed design. That would allow the sabres we're all familiar with to be used more like how Dooku uses it. Keeping it in front of you to take full advantage of it's reach. And while I ultimately wanted separate move sets it would have been cool if they stuck with the adaptive design concept and make it so you could choose between two shorter sides, double-sided or dual-wielding, or having the longer single-sided blade length. But I'll just have to be grateful for what we get!
I really loved so many aspects of the first one! the only thing that is off is the excessive and utterly unrealistic platforming. It breaks immersion for me and just makes me think... wtf! this is not needed and makes no sense, just walk, through paths, the game is awesome as it is, it doesnt need running on walls and crazy jumps.
Cal Kestis has quickly become one of my favorite characters. I cannot wait for this game. He has grown up a lot since his story in Fallen Order and you can tell he has definitely been going through it.
@only a comentary nothing special I agree. His interpretation of the Joker and performance of Ian Gallagher just is *chefs kiss* He has something about him, and it’s not just talent.
Ah no way, I hope it has more of those sliding ice sections, they made the game really fun and immersive... Also, is he going to have a Lightsaber this time or does he still have a wifflebat?
@Loyal Companion There are B1's in this, yes. And IG MagnaGuards, B2 Supers, Commandos, and even Purge Troopers. Basically every droid any Force user has had to face is in this except for droidekas, and they still may appear.
I like how his fighting style is very different from the conventional jedi fighting styles since he pretty much taught himself how to survive since he was a really young padawan
@Spoot spot on but I love it, it shows the Jedi after the fall we’re willing to do whatever to defeat the empire. That their texts, codes and morals really did fly out the window when all hell broke lose and young padawans like cal had to survive. It’s details like this we were missing in the live action kenobi series
his fighting style is really interesting. i just finished fallen order and i noticed during the fight with trilla at the vault on dagoba he disarms her by deactivating his lightsaber to get out of a blade lock. if i remember correctly it was a very dishonorable move but it was cool to see
Apprehensive about this... I was really hoping they would open it up, make it more open world with more freedom to choose quests etc but this looks like more of the same just on a slightly larger scale. Given the way the first ended it was set up perfectly for Cal and Merrin to go and find their own adventures. Just as in the first game we already know they don't stop the empire or really even make a mark against them so it would have been nice to give players a chance to explore the galaxy as a former jedi perhaps with Merrin as a dual protagonist and go and find new and different star wars stories far away from storm troopers and the all too familiar rebel tropes. Imagine Witcher 3 with Jedis and that was what I was rooting for. In any case the first was a blast and I'm sure this one will be too but it feels like a missed opportunity to me.
Wow just like with GOW ragnarok they took the few criticisms and changed them! Dual blade move set plus the cross guard to add on top of the single and double blade will be awesome and it looks like we’re getting a companion for some parts!
@The man that does not know anything well its ea so its not impossible, the first was a new ip so maybe the devs got a pass on mtx to see if we like the game, now the ip has a following it could appear.
I can’t wait till there’s a movie on par with these games. With Jedi and GOOD lightsaber fights. Haven’t seen a good lightsaber fight since I was a kid during the prequels.
From how he does the run block move with both lightsabers, that would require him to have both lightsabers separate during the beginning of the run meaning WE FINALLY GET A DUAL WIELD MODE! FOR THE ZAN CLAN!
He’s definitely aged at least five years everything looks amazing! I hope they include more to do when you beat the story, and an incredibly longer story! And no more confusing maps to traverse!
FUCK YES!!! Been waiting for a sequel since I beat the first game. Respawn Entertainment have been one of my favorite devs ever since the senior devs worked for Infinity Ward/Activision then left to work for EA and making Titanfall. Apex was a disappointment since I don't care for the BR genre but both Titanfalls, and Fallen Order are some of my favorite games. I never expected Respawn to try the souls formula for a game but I was happy when they did and I am hyped for this. Respawn Entertainment is by far the best team EA has imo. It's a shame EA has a history of screwing them over though.
Omg can't we have directional swinging back like the good old days of jedi knight jedi academy? Those games were truly the jedi sith experience not dark souls.
The game looks insane, wow! Sad the Mantis crew have gone their separate ways but the story looks so interesting and it already raises so many question
@Kodoku Tenshi These bots often just copy comments with a high amount of likes so they have a good chance at being featured in the comment section. There's no person behind the comment. You should still report them and move on
I'm currently playing Fallen Order right now and I gotta say, this actually looks exciting. Graphics look good, Gameplay looks good, and I like how you can use duel wielded lightsabers. Villain also looks promising. Can't wait for this to come out
@Nonetheless First Just started my second playthrough after finishing my first in 2020. Fell in love again with the game and I'm only 3 hours in. Can't wait for the new game to come out
the only problem with the game is when it hitches while generating the world for the first time you enter it and during cutscene somtimes, that's all i can say. Maybe the graphics is a little bit unpolished (in terms of details around you) when you compared it to something like the witcher 3
Same here couldn't be more impressed with the game considering it came out in 2019 and the story, customization and gameplay is just so satisfying and the combat for me is perfect where it dosnt baby you but it's not like trying to survive through hell, couldn't be more excited for the game and show that's coming out
Hello, Dear Subscriber! Seasons greetings! Quickly TEXT the above number to acknowledge your awards, Because we've a great package for you this Xmas. Cheers....
Man it's cool to see the greatsword variant of lightsaber finally make it's way into basically anything. No idea why it took this long for them to see any actual screentime outside of the really old comics.
It's only a matter of time before he makes it to Live-Action, when he does, he better gets justice!! Also that, he's becoming one of Star Wars' only hopes for the franchise's success
I like what I see but I still think its a missed opportunity to not go for Sekiro's combat system. Fast, parry based, one hit, one kill style combat fits better with lightsabers imo. The crossguard lightsaber looks cool and all but that doesnt suddenly turn your lightsaber into a massive, heavy two handed sword.
ok Cal just stopping ALL those blaster bolts in mid-air is pretty insane, I also like how he made the Stormtrooper with the gun shoot all his friends, that's really sweet.
@Chris Atkinson ohhh, I just realized that I read it wrong, I thought they meant when he stopped they're bullets and then pulled them in to where they get shot by them. Yea no u couldn't use people to shoot other people in the first one
As a non starwars fan, I loved the first game, combat was great and a blast to master, story was good, gameplay never got tidious and the unlock skill tree system was simple and fair. I hope this game lives up to the first.
@Mechquipped Angineer You honestly should play the first one. The first one was very story-driven but also has solid gameplay therefore you wont really have any idea about what’s going on. This game is still months away so if you have time on your hands then definitely play the first one
Played the first game on ps plus and was really surprised at how good it was, never watched anything star wars related but I'm pretty excited for this game Also the dual wield lightsaber possibly being a new form of combat is sick it's the coolest of the 3 ways cal uses his sabers in the original and was sad I couldn't use it by itself Sequel seems really good I'll definitely have to pick it up eventually
I saw a tweet about entering a sweepstakes for a special edition, it told me to watch the trailer to find out how. I watched the trailer but I don’t feel like I’m going to win anything :/ looks like a great game tho
One of the few AAA game trailers at the Game Awards that actually showed gameplay, and it's obvious why, because the gameplay looks incredible, and super polished. Respawn are one of the only developers I like at EA. Keep up the great work!
The fact that the epic final show of the trailer appears to be in-game footage of a combo into a smooth animation tells me everything I need to know about how awesome this game is gonna be
I never had a problem with the combat or graphics for fallen order. For me it was that it never felt like their was any incentive to explore as 90% of the rewards for doing so we're just those ugly cosmetics. I really hope they overhauled that for this game.
@Jo Cole I'm saying it's a good game, but it's not a masterpiece. Earning the rank of a masterpiece takes more than what they put into Jedi Outcast. Maybe Academy? Also let me state this: Fallen Order for sure has the best lightsaber combat system till this day of any of the games. I hope what we've seen so far from Respawn Entertainment's most recent trailer shows us even more improved and advanced combat system. Hack & slash is a no-no.
@Roy Chan how is Jedi outcast a masterpiece? It’s combat is non responsive and feels random, the lvl design is confusing and has no flow and the first lvl without a lightsaber is just awful.
Everything in this trailer looks badass. I just hope this one is longer than the first fallen order. Felt like the first one relied on you going back to old planets with new abilities just to look for secrets and shit like that. Just how I saw it tho. Felt like the story wasn't very long. Could have done more with the resistance storyline-maybe made a planet or two where you went to help the fight.
The game looks insane, wow! Sad the Mantis crew have gone their separate ways but the story looks so interesting and it already raises so many questions
@Richie Mesar maybe I think it’s brought out after the games for spoiler reasons or maybe something big happens to a character from the crew or multiple members to drive the sales
They show there's been quite a passage of time, and the ending of the 1st game they destroy the holocron, so they have no reason to travel together anymore
