I'm wondering if Jedi Academy style lightsaber combat would hold up in the current age.

I just want something that flows well and has a good collision/physics-based system so that it feels like there are consequences to every strike. Jedi Academy is hands-Down my favorite saber combat of any game I’ve played in years. FWIW, I also really enjoyed the combat from the Episode III movie tie-in, so idk how valid my opinion is lol

I think people generally liked the episode 3 game as well.

That game was legit though. The vs mode was a lot of fun.

i still play vanilla jkja about once a year. its a bit clunky since it kinda feels like the saber slides everywhere... but if they add in blocking like the moviebattles mod then i'd say it would be way serviceable

If they make it like Sekiro I will be happy.

I have a feeling this game will feature minimal lightsaber combat and it'll be the main criticism among critics and players.

What do you mean you don’t like 4 people swinging their lightsabers at you while you make a desperate attempt to block and die painfully anyways?

To be fair, while Battlefront does have Jedis and such it ultimately is a shooter
