Fought like a true Jedi. I noticed you never really took offense at any point in these duels. Instead you let them mindlessly charge and attack you as you countered (sorta like Obi Wan Kenobi’s style). I would say this is probably the best way to fight in this particular game because with as many fights as you get in each level, you can’t really take offense all the time because you’ll lose a significant amount of health fighting that way.
Beautifully played. Nice to see how you dive into those duels - movement, smoothness, rhythm. especially second one. Outcast has this atmosphere and coherence that academy sadly lacked. My favourite sw game.
This game brings me back sweet memories when i was a teenager played this game on Pc 🙂😁! Jedi Outcast was so much fun to play and it was such an amazing and special game 🙂.
i so loved this game. thank you for allowing me to be a jedi at 15. I remember playing the demo before I bought it. The demo was a level not in the final game. And at the end of the demo you had to fight a light saber sith. As you stepped into the hangar it went to cut scene and DUN. DUN DUN.
Well played. Realized that I never played through Jedi Outcast, many years ago, rented it though. Played the hell out of Jedi Academy 2, much later played KR server on PC. Good times, good duels.
Playing through this and gonna definitely do Academy as well. Wish there were more singleplayer focused mods, really impressed with the campaign. Even the forced shooter missions in the beginning have a neat quality. They're hard as hell and the designs are confusing but it feels good in its own way to get really good at blasting stormtroopers with a fast Doom-like playstyle.
I played a bit of Outcast SP not to long ago. I love the aesthetic. Kind of amazing that it never wears of. I start MP, I get the exact same feels as I did when I was a kid, it's amazing. Just the intro "daduuuuum TSSSSH!" (the Lucas Arts Logo and the Force Lighting). But I honestly feel like the SP campaign becomes a chore at some point. I could only play it to Cairn before I got bored. In my opinion the gun handling would need to be optimized a bit and the enemies either wiggling like it's Overwatch competitive or standing absolutely still annoys a lot. Using cover in the game, it feels more like you're doing something wrong and the weapon balancing is all over the place. And the weapons are way too much spam reliant. The puzzles could be more entertaining as well. It's a bit of an outdated formula that you can really feel. On the other hand I'm sometimes impressed at what the engine can actually do (like raindrops will occasionally hit the lightsaber and emit fog) I'm really keen to see what they're going to do with Overwatch 2 PVE because whatever we see there is probably what I envisioned Jedi Knight Co-Op Multiplayer to be. But even I can't tell if that's gonna be good or bad. (I know most people that think of Overwatch probably don't think of Jedi Knight, but something tells me that at the core these are similar when looking at the multiplayer). Like you literally have 2 Junkrat abilities in Jedi Knight, as well as Winston's weapon, med packs are still present, sniper is still present, you could potentially play as healer/Mercy etc.
I actually think there’s way too many flipping than actual lightsaber clashing in this game. It’s like people like the acrobatic tricks but not the actual methodical fencing. I do think Jedi Fallen Order does a better job keeping the fights grounded and more strategic. And if they allow you to do flips in Fallen Order then it should be LIMITED heavily with an energy/stamina bar. No more of this constant flipping backwards, sideways, forwards circus act. And no more OP force powers that was in Force Unleashed. Depict a good old fashioned, visceral, grounded duel like in the movies.
@@chrisblaze1484 This game did have methodical fencing, but you had to be skilled to do it. I've seen duels in MP from top ranking players with no flips at all, but all pacing, angle, timing and distance.
wow you really are the greatest ever haha :) very nice very skillful, i was amazed multiple times.. the 2nd fight with the 2vyou, kyle was like "i have the high ground!" that first one with all the rolls.. you are a master
Jedi Academy: Mostly offense. Jedi Outcast: Mostly defense. What do you think is better? I like Jedi Academy more because I can glitch the sabers to get more.(Like 2 staff)
Academy is incredible but the simplicity of the single saber utilizing all 3 stances makes it more satisfying to win a duel. Plus there’s a lot of hidden acrobatics in outcast you wouldn’t know unless you really played around with it.
@@lethalassassin1754 I noticed that the lightsaber's blade is longer in Outcast than in Academy. That's why I got killed a lot first,because I wasn't used to it.
Jedi Academy,The Force Unleashed I & II are my favorite Star Wars games.Jedi Outcast was good but more difficult imo because the movesets & upgrades were not effective enough.
What they dont tell you, is that it SUCKS on controller. To swip down, you have to walk backwards. If you dont see the issue there, you cant make contact with your saber if youre currently walking *away* from the fight.
They feel really similar so it shouldn't be too much of a problem. The singleplayer in Outcast I actually prefer, but there's three or so missions at the start before you get your lightsaber, and I know that some people find them frustrating. You can always use console commands to give yourself a lightsaber for those missions though, if you don't want to have to play without one
Saber locks happen when 2 Jedi perfectly time and strike eachother at the same exact time. Hence why medium yellow stance is the most balanced stance in terms of timing that locks on to both slow(red) and fast(blue) strikes a lot of times
After beating Jedi Survivor it made me immediately miss this game from my childhood. I just wanted the game to be over with since every combat encounter felt like just mashing buttons to hit your enemies with your light saber baseball bat and that's it. I cannot believe they still can't beat let alone match this game in terms of combat for over 20 years now. It's absolutely crazy to see the state of modern AAA gaming today and depressing seeing it decline year by year.
Couldn't agree more, you nailed it. Gaming is dying, it isn't sustainable. AAA games don't even release in a functional state anymore. We had a real chance in the 2000s, during the intersection of creativity and technology, to make a lot of great games. HL2, FEAR, Crysis, etc, it really seemed like developers were using our new access to technology to push the boundaries and make things that could never be made before. We were focusing on physics and AI and somehow over time we lost our way. We ended up with bigger explosions and more "cinematic" cutscenes but we never surpassed the attention to detail, the attention to gameplay, and the intractability we had during the mid 2000s.
Arms and hands. Is there more dismemberment in Jedi academy? it feels the same? I wish legs could be dismembered as well at least since head dismemberment is asking for too much
1:12 I HAVE THE HIGH GROUND ANAKIN.
YOU UNDERESTIMATE MY POWER
DONT TRY IT
*tries it and gets wrecked
Anakin: I HATE YOU
High ground by about a foot and a half! But still!
Lmao thought the same thing and then I saw this comment
Best lightsaber combat system of any star wars game. And there will never be better.
I was so disappointed when Fallen Order wasn't a spiritual successor to this. You're absolutely right.
@Shadow Puppet Horror Theatre pretty much the same right? To be honest havn't played then in more Than 10 years.
Hasnotalent to be fair cal hasn’t had much offense training and I’m pretty sure they wanted to make the game like dark souls kinda
Fallen Order was fine, but nowhere near this game's mastery. Heck, Revenge of the Sith on Xbox and Ps2 was closer.
@@noahfessenden6478 Revenge of the sith was just a button masher and nothing more.

Loser
1:16 I love this so much. Beautifully executed.
Fought like a Jedi Master
Reminds me of how Obi Wan defeated Anakin on Mustafar
At 1:15 is literally the definition of what the High ground is 😄
1:14 that slash as he leaps up to the platform is beautifully executed (pun!).
This game was so ahead of its time especially with the lightsaber duels
What do You mean „ahead of its time”? After this series, game like this, with this kind of combat never happened.
@@Buli0n Thats because its too ahead of its time. Maybe in a couple hundred years they ll see the light and make a decent lightsaber game again
@@carlosplata3899 you won’t and there is not even any point in making Star Wars games. It’s dead universe with no stories to be told.
@@Buli0n nothing left to do but go forward.
i see you getting the *high ground* at 1:13 😏

I remember that, was it like a dark rocky level?
Mission at alzoc 3. You can unlock it in the base game with a cheat code.
This is 100x better than Jedi Survivor.
Indeed it is
Well played.
Realized that I never played through Jedi Outcast, many years ago, rented it though.
Played the hell out of Jedi Academy 2, much later played KR server on PC.
Good times, good duels.
YOU ARE OUT OF YOUR DEBTS REBORN! ONLY A JEDI CAN BE STRONGER
You thought it was YOU who was going to bait me.
But it was me, KYLE KATARN! who was baiting YOU into a saber lock.

SodaPopSD - i always used code at the very beginning of the game and played with lightsaber and force powers all the way :)
The game was made on the Quake 3 engine, so that's probably why it's Doom-like.
I played a bit of Outcast SP not to long ago.
I love the aesthetic. Kind of amazing that it never wears of.

These early game Bespin duels were some of the best in the game
Most impressive
1:35 i love using that move a lot
When a hack and slash game has better choreography than a new Hollywood-made trilogy of films.
Back in the day, when Jedi Knight was a thing, you had beasts like Lizzano, PAnick and Curry that one could beat
I hope the new star wars Jedi game has combat like this.
RIP...

i must say i have some hopes towards this new jedi game. maybe we will have worthy succesor of jedi knight after all thise years?
Nah, what we really need is a game that emulates the Revenge of the Sith video game fighting style. That game easily had the best lightsaber dueling.
wow you really are the greatest ever haha :) very nice very skillful, i was amazed multiple times..
the 2nd fight with the 2vyou, kyle was like "i have the high ground!"
that first one with all the rolls.. you are a master

i have to buy this
Álvaro same
You can fight with a double lightsaber or two of them and select the weapon's color in Jedi Academy
So, what'd you think?
Together we can bring peace to the Galaxy
1:15 You have the high ground
Who is here after Nintendo Direct?
Now Kyle Katarn is the Master and Master Skywalker will be pleased HaHaHaHa!
To be honest I liked outcast's lightsaber combat more.
Academy is incredible but the simplicity of the single saber utilizing all 3 stances makes it more satisfying to win a duel. Plus there’s a lot of hidden acrobatics in outcast you wouldn’t know unless you really played around with it.

these memories O.o
I beat this game 10 times on all dificulties. Best game
I AM A JEDI LIKE MY FATHER BEFORE ME
1:15 " i have the high ground!!!"
Kenobi like the reference.
Jedi Academy,The Force Unleashed I & II are my favorite Star Wars games.Jedi Outcast was good but more difficult imo because the movesets & upgrades were not effective enough.
RUN, KATARN!
I can see S is your favorite button to hold down.
0:47 lol the entrance
1:16 I have the highground! Dont try it!
Nice video as always
What they dont tell you, is that it SUCKS on controller. To swip down, you have to walk backwards. If you dont see the issue there, you cant make contact with your saber if youre currently walking *away* from the fight.
This is the best Star Wars game ever made
I played Jedi Academy first because I thought it came out first. Will this game feel like a downgrade from Academy?

Nice man keep it up
1:13 Man, I really need to take this high ground stuff more seriously. LOL
IT'S OVER PADAWAN
fucking finesse. watching this makes me realize how bad i am at combat in these games lmao
I learned from observing the npcs movements and playing against high level bots. Surprised at how good i was when i found an online server.
Can somebody godamn explain me how Saberlocking works? I'm fighting Desaan and it feels completly random who wins a Saberlock
@@arnoldreeves2436 thx, but i allready beat him after an introduction Video for the Multiplayer

at 0:35 i dont rly know for sure what button or how i win those duels?
I just mash left click *shrug*
only SW game where saber can cut
What about lego star wars ? Lol
In The force Unleashed 2 and in Jedi academy too
@@Larry421 like this in TFU 2? ruclips.net/video/xXJbPirqRoM/видео.html
I wanna prove this game ❤
1. NO
2. YES
I suggest if you can to play Star Wars Jedi Academy.
idk they just dont remake this type of game with a modern design.
Wow
Are people still playing this?
Of course they are.
1:14 Wait, I've seen this one before...

No mods, just an .ini edit to make it 1080p.

1:15 anakin vs obi wan finaal move
Need the dismemberment mod

It actually does, mildly. Arms can get cut off!
