Bode gets sliced through by a lightsaber a thousand times while landing no hits: "Learn to fight" Cal after getting punched a few times: "Embrace the Darkness"
A light saber cant act like the one in the movies as it would be a one hit kill unless you do something like sekiro where they block your attacks untill you brake there stamnia
I find it so poetic that Bode didn't die by the lightsaber. He died by the blaster. The same blaster he gave to Cal. His betrayal came back to him. And he knew it too. The look on his face when his own malfunctioned was just tragic.
Bode has also logical weakness when it comes to lightsaber combat. Namely that he seems to have had only little practice beyond basic training, which means he's very vulnerable to parrying. He has to try to make up that with using gadgets in 1st & 2nd phases and telekinetics in 3rd phase.
Dude BD1 is the main character of course his servants are gonna do whatever they have to do to protect him. (Definitely not saying this because he’s my favorite character)
I hated Bode for his betrayal, but at the same time, I could kind of understand where he was coming from. In the end, what he really wanted to do was protect his daughter. He might've had good intentions, but that took him down a dark path of no return.
I can understand him being a double agent all that time. But the moment they got the compass why fight? Why not escape together to Tanalorr where the Empire supposedly can't reach them and then come clean (or not). Bode has a problem with Cal giving the Planet to the Hidden Path. What's the issue? It's a whole planet. The whole idea behind it is that the Empire would never find them there.
@@anidriX just like how the archive was very protective and undercover... One person gave it away and look at the damage. Plus they know who Bode is. If they spot him, it compromises him and his daughter. Its easy to hide half a dozen people but not smuggling hundreds of thousands into a planet. The hidden path is a risk to Bode and Kata so it's understandable why he's against Cals wishes
Respawn seriously needs to work on contextual dialogue. Though dagan does compliment you when you perform well before he defaults back to his generic "you're weak" dialogue.
I'd love to see a game change the cutscene depending on how well you do in a fight to make it more immersive, like have the same result but a different approach to that result depending if you styled on the boss or struggled hard against them
Nicely done. I love how writers didn't give Bode any redemption. I thought Cal would just held him at gunpoint and talk to him, and he will suddenly understand everything, how it often happens in Disney movies/shows, but nope, Cal kills him. And not in some rage mode. Cal just knew what talking wouldn't solve this situation
@@oshenone6947 No one good at least. And yeah, Cal tried to talk it out with Bode multiple times, including twice in this fight alone. Bode refused to listen.
1:34 I like the improved quality of the force dash in Jedi survivor. It makes the Bode feel like he’s actually dashing instead of teleporting around like the Second Sister from Fallen Order. It makes it appear as if there’s a weight to the character, physical or emotional or whatever. I also like the fight story-wise. Bode seemed to want to protect his daughter at the start of the fight but lost sight of what he was doing in the near end of the fight, basically calling Cal unskilled at the near end (4:38). And this is probably up for interpretation, but Bode seemed almost hypocritical at the end of the fight, putting someone Cal cares about in danger to protect someone he cared about himself.
The "learn to fight" or "you know you're weak" lines could be dun moch a psychological warfare tactic to unbalance Cal through taunting. Dooku, Vader, Malicos, Grievous (spinning his lightsabers), the inquisitors (the mimicking grievous) and sidious uses this tactic as well. Dagan took it a step further with his force illusions.

I like how they made Bode a reverse-grip user. Like there's a lot of Force Users who occasionally use reverse-grip (like Cal, Dagan, Obi-Wan) but Bode is just straight up reverse-grip and that's awesome
after rayvis, dagan 3 and vader this fight felt like a walk in the park. no stun locks, no endless combos, actually reacted to being hit. he still had those moonveil attacks, but they were actually reactable and only came one at a time, unlike with dagan 3.
@@brucebanner645 third phase bode was not that hard imo. Maxbe i just got lucky, but i got that phase on gm on my second try, only because I was surprised the first time. Rayvis phase 2 was insanely aggressive and hard, I only got him because I switched tactics in phase 2 from dual blade to crossguard, parrying everything he threw at me. But nontheless I took way more time there. Phase 2 of bode was certainly more of a problem to me than phase 3
@@shween8683 okay remember the star wars movie episode 2 where anakin try to save obi-wan and ends up getting capture. and then obi-wan was joking saying good job at getting caught. well in this case? this dude was giving many changes and he does this so he has his death that could be avoided. so thats why I said good job not in a good way
Given Bode’s position as a member of the Republic Intelligence (indicating he’s likely in the sentinel class of Jedi), his skill with various weapons and tools including blasters and his jet pack, and skill with Force integration and handling of the reverse grip, I believe Bode is both a Shien and Niman practitioner in lightsaber combat. Between the two I believe he favors the latter as the reverse grip only applies to his saber/blaster hybrid technique, and his complimentary balance between agility and strength are hallmarks of a Niman specialist, and would allow him to perform admirably against Cal in both fights despite likely being out of practice for years.
I know this is a year old video but since I just stumbled upon it wow! Excellent timing!! I could barely get the timing down on normal and that has a huge window for parrying! Amazing!!
3:36 a great detail here is that both of Bode's blasters get damaged from the dark force Cal uses here, which is what causes his eventual death. Incredible.
Like greez said, it’s on bode, no one else. He was given multiple chances to end things without bloodshed. Even at the very end, Cal got the draw, but hesitated, gave bode one final chance to stop, but Bode went for it.
I like how bode shows us a jedi powered purely by fear (of loss in his case) can create an extremely dangerous power. It is a good revitalization of questioning passion against justice...emotion against reason. Also why galen marek is one of my favorite star wars characters.
Nice stuff as always. I would love to see you bring back "What you could Parry" into Elden ring. Its always interesting to see what is actually parrayable
Bode's betrayal was such a shock I gasped when he pulled his blaster on Master Cordova. Then the second big reveal when Cal chases him literally made me yell WHAATTTTT?!???!! Very well done
Really love how this fight feels like a low scale grudge match instead of having to be this large scale saving the world type shit. it what spider-man 2 needed for its story
Ik that everyone says that bode was written poorly but the darkside cloud’s your judgment makes you impulsive unreasonable hate and bloodlust blurr you’re mind so it was really him letting his emotions get to him in my opinion not bad writting
From sekiro to elden ring to dark souls to any game which makes someone rage and destroy their pc this man can beat those games without even getting hitted good job I may shall call u grandmaster of grand Master grand grand Master keep up the good work
He could of been saved but the loss of his wife and embracing the dark side led him to almost kill his own child! He truly needed to be set free from his anguish.
The fact you’ve mastered Jedi combat without dual wield is crazy man. I like dual because it’s like similar to sekiro but with the other stances trying to make sure you don’t attack at the wrong moment is crucial.
@@MC-ns8gb yeah, when I use duel wield, it doesn’t feel very good. It feels weak and like I lack the ability to do much to the enemy. It only makes it easier to not die to enemies, but your damage output is definitely reduced by a lot.
I think someone mentioned this on another video but you can juat tell he was gonna be a boss cause he has those wide bossfight shoulders. Kinda like how owl was an obvious fight in sekiro when u saw he was 10 feet tall.
I think this was Cal's hardest fight because until the very end, Cal was holding back and not trying to kill Bode. It wasn't until Bode used the force as a weapon on his own daughter that Cal knew that Bode had allowed himself to devolve into a beast controlled by his fear that Bode would not let himself be alleviated from. At that point, Cal knew he had to put Bode down.
Ok so when Bode said and when the Empire comes. Will you be able to protect my daughter?. I was wondering, what could Cal have said to make him change his mind? Because if you think about it 2 force users with jedi training would probably be good.
Nothing, probably. He would have backstabbed Cal as soon as he have the chance. From literal back-stabbing to simple things such as sabotaging the compass or the Mantice.
If you played Star Wars The Force Unleashed 1 you will understand this in the Ending of the game The Good Ending General Kota say That If you Strike him down In Anger You be right Back Where you started Take this For Instance Cal is A Jedi but he’s Not Good At it killing Is not the Jedi Way Cal has Already Use The Darkness He has A little bit of anger Against Bode as he kills him Strike him Down and you will look at what you will become Losing Yourself Ps ( Sorry for my bad Grammar though😢)
Parry animations work better here. I think it's a combination of the sparks and how it's animated, i.e. moving the saber to the right when the attack is coming from the left and "cutting" across to the right.
I'm not a big fan of Star Wars, but I enjoyed it. Semi-Sekiro style combat and exploration are all good. But as is well known already, there's huge optimization issue. I've had dozens of crashes while playing the game. For now, I would say don't buy the game and wait for the problem to be fixed.
@@_ONGBAL exactly how I feel. Also, the open world felt bloated compared to the first game and bosses were cheaper with random hyper armor that allowed them to cheaply hit you through your attacks.
I wonder if this is how Homelander will go down - beaten, bloodied, cornered, then feigns surrender or understanding and tries to leverage the goodness of the Boys against them only to find it doesn't work and they finally end him because Homelander will never change.
Am I the only one who gets a major Ratchet and Clank A Crack In Time vibe from this finale? Think about it- you've handled the major threat (in RaC, it was Dr Nefarious, and in here it's Dagan Gera), and now, someone who has been your ally for most of the game now ends up being the final boss (In RaC, it's Allister Azimuth, and here it's Bode Akuna).
I've done every single boss fight on jedi grand master with no damage and now I'm up to this one. He keeps force pushing me away and spamming me with his blaster, breaking my defence before I can even get close
I played on Jedi Master and got my ass handed four times before I finally beat this fucker. If this isn't the ultimate display of skill in this game - I don't know what is. Well played amigo, what a show...
Its okay seeing games get inspired by Sekiros combat ,but i would prefer they use the deathblow mechanic rather then just give you bonus damage. It doesn't feel as impactful.
I hate how the cutscenes force certain weapons on you. Though I used pistol / crossguard, most my scenes failed continuity. But! Rick the Door Technician was the best thing in this game 😆.
What style of play do you prefer? Heavy & slow cross-saber, quick with easy-parry dual-saber, or blaster and single blade versatility are all good ones.
I think that the blaster saber combo one is very useful, and that the single blade form pairs well with it, especially since it’s very consistent. The cross guard saber form is also very good for damage output and has a decent defense. As shown here, it also pairs well with combos involving the single saber form. The duel blade is easy to use since it increases your ability to survive enemy barrages, but it trades it for lackluster damage and range. The double blade is niche, but useful in its own ways, especially with crowds. I’d say that having multiple different load-outs is a good choice.
Honestly, I don't get why they gave Bode a Polo shirt/Nathan Drake holster combo as opposed to something a little more star-wars-y looking. It makes him look like my uncle if he hit the gym every day and I can't unsee it lmao.
Bring back young Cal. He was a much more capable boss fighter. Here are his most practical moves that are no longer in jedi survivor: 1.) dash slash 2.) dodge teep kick 3.) dash frontflip slash 4.) high jump lightsaber throw

Just a correction, Bode's blasters were broken when Cal "embraced the darkness" earlier.

Strike him Down and you will look at what you will become
Losing Yourself
Ps ( Sorry for my bad Grammar though😢)
Parry animations work better here. I think it's a combination of the sparks and how it's animated, i.e. moving the saber to the right when the attack is coming from the left and "cutting" across to the right.
Fight ends with Blasters, not sabers.
Which helps cement that Cal isn't really a Jedi anymore. He is a Survivor, Trusting only in the Force
Meanwhile, I finished the first time with no health and no stims. But I still did it!
The way Cal killed him is so Pulp Fiction like
Cal: I can bring you in warm or I can bring you in cold.
Amazing. How do you like this fight / what’s your favorite of this game?
Any final verdict on the game Ongbal? I'd like to hear your thoughts!
I'm not a big fan of Star Wars, but I enjoyed it. Semi-Sekiro style combat and exploration are all good. But as is well known already, there's huge optimization issue. I've had dozens of crashes while playing the game. For now, I would say don't buy the game and wait for the problem to be fixed.
@@_ONGBAL thank you for your kinda precious insight !!!
@@_ONGBAL exactly how I feel. Also, the open world felt bloated compared to the first game and bosses were cheaper with random hyper armor that allowed them to cheaply hit you through your attacks.
I wonder if this is how Homelander will go down - beaten, bloodied, cornered, then feigns surrender or understanding and tries to leverage the goodness of the Boys against them only to find it doesn't work and they finally end him because Homelander will never change.
Enemy mocking Ongbal is pure comedy
I used the shockwave attack on this boss as well, eats his stamina and if you do it after his grab attack he'll fall over.
after 2 hours of wining him with almost full pack stims in the same difficulty.|
i safely say this is what Bode deserves. :D
Bode: I must protect my daughter!
Also Bode: nearly drops her down a chasm with a force pull.
Am I the only one who gets a major Ratchet and Clank A Crack In Time vibe from this finale? Think about it- you've handled the major threat (in RaC, it was Dr Nefarious, and in here it's Dagan Gera), and now, someone who has been your ally for most of the game now ends up being the final boss (In RaC, it's Allister Azimuth, and here it's Bode Akuna).
I've done every single boss fight on jedi grand master with no damage and now I'm up to this one. He keeps force pushing me away and spamming me with his blaster, breaking my defence before I can even get close
I played on Jedi Master and got my ass handed four times before I finally beat this fucker. If this isn't the ultimate display of skill in this game - I don't know what is. Well played amigo, what a show...
well i didn't want to embrace the darkness...so I died :(
When Bode punch Cal if you don't embrace the darkness Cal will be dead already.
Throughout most of the fight, I was still hoping that he would reconsider surrendering, but after he smacked BD-1, I said out-loud "Nah, you're dead"
Its okay seeing games get inspired by Sekiros combat ,but i would prefer they use the deathblow mechanic rather then just give you bonus damage. It doesn't feel as impactful.
It was a boss fight for Bode, gawt DAMN!!!!...
Fun fact: the line "Embrace the Darkness" is a direct reference to the video game, Dark Souls III
I hate how the cutscenes force certain weapons on you. Though I used pistol / crossguard, most my scenes failed continuity. But! Rick the Door Technician was the best thing in this game 😆.
What saber style do you think is the "best?" I'm having trouble find the one for me
What style of play do you prefer? Heavy & slow cross-saber, quick with easy-parry dual-saber, or blaster and single blade versatility are all good ones.
I think that the blaster saber combo one is very useful, and that the single blade form pairs well with it, especially since it’s very consistent. The cross guard saber form is also very good for damage output and has a decent defense. As shown here, it also pairs well with combos involving the single saber form.
The duel blade is easy to use since it increases your ability to survive enemy barrages, but it trades it for lackluster damage and range. The double blade is niche, but useful in its own ways, especially with crowds. I’d say that having multiple different load-outs is a good choice.
Love the videos! You ever consider uploading some nioh or strangers of paradise?
Cant wait for the vader fight
This is how I wish I could play on grandmaster, with just pure aggression and the ability to just punish the boss for even daring to attempt a strike.
Honestly, I don't get why they gave Bode a Polo shirt/Nathan Drake holster combo as opposed to something a little more star-wars-y looking.
It makes him look like my uncle if he hit the gym every day and I can't unsee it lmao.
Didnt do his grab move even for once. Watched this video just for tha, just to see how can I dodge that fuckin move.
Bring back young Cal. He was a much more capable boss fighter. Here are his most practical moves that are no longer in jedi survivor: 1.) dash slash 2.) dodge teep kick 3.) dash frontflip slash 4.) high jump lightsaber throw
Can you fight Oggdo Bogdo and the spawn of Oggdo as for me thats one of the hardest boss in the game.
Doesn’t this fight feel a little like Genichiro?
