Discussion Question about Battle Scars

I read novel and among others things, a few things in particular caught my eye. Apperantly lightsaber can deflect missiles ? I always thought you needed to use force to do so, but it seems like saber can as well in lore now, without worry of them exploding?

Another flash-bang; Cal squinted, managing to get his lightsaber up in time to deflect another missile. This one boomeranged back to hit its launcher— And the cantina went up in flames, the explosion rocking the entire building

Cal held his lightsaber at the ready in front of him, both blades blazing. He was working out his best strategy—deflect one of T1L-D4’s missiles back toward Killena, watch them both get annihilated

And is it me or Cal seems to love killing bit too much in this novel lol?

He also, at one point, jumps on a jetpack-flying bounty hunter, and she is alive until he rips of her helmet off and then she is dead? Like did he break her neck while taking of helmet or something worse?

He holstered his lightsaber, just for a moment, then used both hands to yank off the hunter’s helmet and end the fight. Without someone alive to control it, her jetpack flared out of control,

Discussion Thinking about Getting Jedi: Fallen Order

I’ve been thinking about getting Jedi: Fallen Order, and it’s now on sale for like $8. I love story games, like Spider-Mans, God of War, DBH, RDR2, etc. Is Jedi: Fallen Order worth playing?

Discussion Just finished Fallen Order literally 45 minutes ago and here are my thoughts (spoilers obviously): Spoiler

THE TITLE IS A MISTAKE BRO PLZ IGNORE IT LMFAO

The gameplay was astonishing. Not only do you get 5 whole stances, but you get a lot of mobility and have a huge skill tree. My personal favorite stances are blaster and crossguard because, although it ain't double-sided, blaster is really good for multiple/fodder enemies while also being ranged and good for combos, while the crossguard is great for boss fights and does the most power, and the slowness isn't a big enough drawback for me to give it up. Even beyond that, the customization for the blaster, saber, and BD-1 are super fun to play around with! While I prefer to keep BD-1 white and red and have Cal's saber with the Jaro Tapal emitter because I feel that's just the best choice for me, changing the colors of the blade, blaster, and saber hilt were really nice, especially with the white and gold theme I went with. Same thing can be said about Cal's customization (I personally like his long hair version). I personally like how Merrin and Cal got together, and I know some might not think that and think it feels forced, I thought it was inevitable and really think they work together! I think really the only thing I dislike about this game is the ending and Bode's twist. While, in retrospect, I think the idea of him being on the Empire's side makes more sense considering he would give anything to make sure his daughter was safe, including joining the Empire despite them killing his wife, I'm not so sure on the whole jedi idea. He's always felt like the usual jetpack + blaster combo guy and I thought it was a nice contrast compared to Cal's usual jedi style. That is until he used force push on Cal and revealed his saber in which, it did get me surprised, but it kind of disappointed me a bit. I really hope in the next game, we get more info on who Bode was when he was a jedi like who his master was, the call before his wife's death, or even him as a padawan! Also, am I the only one who thought like 2 hours in that Bode would betray us? I might just be crazy. Cere's death was really tragic to me because she's been a day one goat for the crew, but I think her going out by Vader while putting up a good fight is very fitting of her considering what happened to Trilla. I think Dagen Gera was a great villain along with Rayvis and served their jobs really well (though the Bode twist kind of ruined it for me). I'm also very glad that Greez, Merrin, and Kate didn't die throughout the game. I also really like how Cal was struggling against the Dark Side's temptations and I really hope we get to see more of that in the next game.

Overall, I think the game could've had a better ending, but that doesn't mean I think it was flat-out BAD, I just think it could've had some more going for it. Overall, the gameplay and story combine was a 9.5/10. It was a really fun game and definitely one of my favorite games that I own, other examples being like Ultrakill (9.9/10) and Portal 2 (10/10). I absolutely would recommend this to any fan who has played Fallen Order and is thinking if the next game is really worth it. It absolutely is. It's like Fallen Order on steroids and aderal, pretty much all you could ask for in a sequel game. I just really hope the next game doesn't disappoint! Do let me know if you disagree or agree with anything I've said because I'd love to see how others feel on this game!

Also, not that important to my rating of the game, but my boss fight again Rick the Door Technician was extra funny for me because his animation broke and him approaching me didn't have any run cycles, but rather was just him standing while hovering towards my direction, and it was funny asl i can't lie.
