Star Wars Jedi: Survivor (2023 Video Game)
8/10
Right in the feels, I can't even
29 May 2023
I thought JFO was a wonderful story, I was absolutely loving Cal Kestis as a young Jedi character, figuring himself out. In Survivor he has become one bad ass Jedi: I'm eating his character arc up. He truly is one of my favorite SW characters ever. The story is action packed, tense and emotional. No spoilers, but I'm not even finished and I already feel I should get some therapy to help me cope. I've yelped and screamed and cried out loud at the TV more than once. For me at least, it's an immersive experience.

The game itself is beautiful, the gameplay is diverse and the combat makes me feel like an absolute rebel Jedi, which is super entertaining.

I do wish there was more variety in destinations, to organically take you to most corners of the maps.

And I also wish there was more significant rising action in the middle part of the story. There's a lot of action at the start and at the climax, but in between it felt kind of repetitive to me, going back and forth playing fetch between two worlds. It does all make sense, but I would have liked some more holy-hell events in between.

Doesn't prevent me from loving this game though, and I'm definitely replaying it once I finish!
