Jedi Academy has the best lightsaber fights hands down. Dark Forces II, Jedi Outcast and Jedi Academy just get better and better. Jedi Knight saga is an amazing set of games.
Strongly disagree. Idk how old are you, but I was there at Jk 2’s release date. Played Jk 3 as well and back then the wast majority of hardcore Jk players agreed that Academy is a very big downgrade from Outcast when it comes to story and lightsaber combat. On top of that it was agreed that jko patch 1.0 is the best as the newer patches of Jk 2 made the game more similar to Academy. One interesting fact is that what made you a skillful player in Outcast was frowned upon in Academy. If you want to see the best Star Wars lightsaber conbat try Jk 2 1.0. It offers the most control over the lihhtsaber.
@roberth4395 Whoever told you Jedi Academy was a downgrade in lightsaber combat was either a veeeeeery small group of people or your imagination created by your own nostalgia. I've never heard anyone say that crap besides you.
I thoroughly enjoyed both (all 4 games, actually), but I thought JK2 was certainly the better game. In my experience Jedi Academy was simply too easy and not as much fun as Jedi Outcast. Both have their strengths.
@@roberth4395 I bought both within a few weeks of release and involved competitively back then for years. While I'd occasionally hear sentiment like your own, they were also people who after losing a battle would rant about how JK2 was better and academy was for noobs. I had been very successful online in both games, but JKA was far more smooth and fast flowing. While those people had a few good arguments, generally they came across as bitter. And yes, when they said after losing "duel me in a real game, you wouldn't dare face me in JK2", I'd accept and beat them comprehensively. I always considered JK2 is a brilliant game, but JKA better online. Those JK2 players had a chip on their shoulder and would describe JKA as a pathetic noob sequel.
god damnnnnn, when you said 20 years i flashed back to first downloading JK2 in 2005 and JKA in 2006 respectively and... really felt the sands of time go by.
Started playing saber only servers drunk with friends for fun over 10 years ago, now it's my go to nostalgia game together with Age of Empires II and Heroes III.
Jedi Academy is one of my favorite games, and it also has one of the best melee combat in gaming so far. It is a pity that has not created a trend, unlike the Soulslikes that I do not like in general.
You could’ve said all that without whining about another genre, if you don’t like it, don’t focus on it. I like both and I wouldn’t run to videos of games I don’t like to whine about them or vice versa. Just quit bitching about games and play what you enjoy.
@@GodMajikdamn your triggered why not ask why he doesnt like them im wondering why because i love souls like games but i see his point this game should have been a trend for other games especially starwars games but at one point gaming companies didnt like the idea of “copying” other games to keep originality or because the game didnt do good enough, for other reasons other than the gameplay be it bad marketing or other aspects of the game that didnt do well so they just assume it was everything about the game, but nowadays it seems like developers have no originality anymore and dont mind making clones upon clones for profit
@@jilliebean6312 you’re the triggered one, clearly. Too many people waste time saying they dislike one thing just to say they like another, if you like it then you like it, who gives a fuck about the semantics.
I don’t have anything but a laptop with integrated graphics right now and I can play this game w mods that make it look and feel unlike any other Star Wars game out currently. I will always love this game for that!
Keep in mind this guide is for Windows PC, Mac, or Linux. Not much will apply to the console versions (PS4, Switch) except for the lightsaber basics. Console versions do not support mods, custom clients, or console commands.
As a man who loved Jedi Academy as a kid, I’m both happy and nostalgic to find a channel dedicated to the game, I hope Star Wars would have a remake of the game
JK Hub was so helpful putting the Mod selection for JK-XR (Academy / Outcast VR for Quest 2, Pico 4) together. Thanks for keeping the community together for all those years.
Great video! I've play this for many many years. I stopped a few years ago. I'm excited people still play this. I need to login and work the rust loose. Thanks for taking the time to make this. I hope it draws more attention to this game. It's always been a favorite of mine.
Okay, I'm only here because I'm playing JA on Switch and just today... just now... after playing this game since I tried a DEMO at Target AND pretty much having MEMORIZED Jedi Outcast in the years prior.... Just today, I learned you can lock-on
Awesome, thanks for making these! JO and JA are still super fun after all these years, maybe one day they'll get some light remasters that would implement basic updates, fixes, engine and rendering improvements and make them more accessible right off the bat after installation, without the need for any manual tweaks.
I love playing it with dual sabers the only thing I dislike is that it's harder to push the opponent on the ground like you do with the saber staff. You need a concussion rifle and you gotta hit them with the secondary fire and then you can attack them but most of the times they jump back up and ruin your combo
Everyone gushes about the lightsabers, but I don't hear much about the little things. Those being: Kyle "You're Joking" Katarn's joyous glee in delivering an ass-whooping to his foes, Stormtroopers and goons alike screaming as they fall to their death, aerial foes being shot upwards as you zap them with lightning, Jawas being Jawas, and the many ways the player can approach most situations.
I will always love this game since it was announced. Is the perfect star wars game for dueling and the star wars vibe. I always hoped for a game like this one to have a recent sequel but we can't get everything in this life. Nice video
i do personally enjoy the Jedi fallen order and jedi survivor games though they tend to run a bit worse of course. but forced unleashed and unleashed 2 were pretty fun. this one has to be the best overall for what it is. it is great
I still very much prefer the Jedi Academy experience to Jedi: Fallen Order, which felt a bit more like Force Unleashed with all those button combos you have to nail... This is way more straightforward, way more satisfying and I wish Fallen Order felt more like Jedi Academy.
Jedi Academy with Enhanced mod is great, with additional 2 force choices for dark side, and one for light side, but i don't understand, why "Insanity" force works like mind trick. . .
They made 2 battlefront games recently, invested so much money into those games, graphics are beautiful.. still, best lightsaber online combat BY FAR, is Jedi Academy, its the reason ppl are still playing it after 20 years.
The only thing I really dislike about this game is the end lag on movement and the customization, neither of which I can really hold against the game considering the era which it was released in.
Remember playing this game ages ago. Is it possible to make private servers or is there any guides on how to make one? Also, can remember if was able to enable dismemberment on multiplayer?
Nice little video that the Algorithm just showed me. Just wonder how it was going since the video was made? Wonder why the youtube is showing me this very old vid.... (look at date...) 12 days? It was made last week? Damn... I must go into that now.
Graphics is not a problem at all, these games still look good when it was a good graphics back in the day. Some games are just ugly, always were ugly and always will be ugly, but it's not the case of Jedi Academy, it's just retro and it looks good. And controls and everythinging else was mostly better than in today games, it's very simple to just jump in and play it, it's not complicated like today games where you need to learn how to play it for like 10 hours before you can actually start to play, I totaly hate this about modern games, it's just getting too complicated, older games from around 2003 were simple to play, you had full control over your charecter so when you died, it was 100% your fault. In modern games when you die, it's very often fault of bad cover system or some auto climbing or something which always destroys what you want to do. I just prefer older games with no such features because it's simple and you can focus on what is really important - to play the game, not learning 5 hours how to use cover system and be scared by going around some wooden box because you don't want to accidentaly trigger a climbing script during a fight if you know what I mean. Some modern games are such a pain to play. Even my father was able to play these 20+ years old games, but there is no way that he could play today games, first - his English is not good enough for that (today games mostly don't have official translation, it's just in English only) but that's not the main reason, main reason is that games are just too complicated now. Even 11 years old kid who didn't speak English at all was able to play these games 20 years ago, you will not even start a new game in modern games without pretty good knowledge of English, which means that games are too complicated now - complicated to install, complicated to run, you need to have milion accounts to milion clients, 90% of them only in English again, constantly some problems with those clients....It was just so simple 20 years ago, you just inserted CD, typed serial key, clicked on next next next and clicked on PLAY and that was it, it was that simple, even 60 years old villager who doesn't speak English was able to do that. Today? Even I in my 31 years have sometimes problem to start some game when it's running thru some obsolete client which just doesn't work at all, you buy the game on steam and it starts another 50 clients from steam and then you have to register your game again inside of game, what the hell is that? I am probably already too old for this. 😀
I agree...also the simplicity of directional swings, only found it in Mount&Blade, Mount&Blade Warband and Mount&Blade Bannerlord games. Nowdays they develop games that in trailers and pre-release gameplay traielrs looks like you are able to customize your gameplay to your liking, your character looks and level the gear, the abilities you choose etc. But in the end you just pick one of the three variants for lets say Jedi Knight or Jedi Consular, you pick his look and gear but thats all, every Jedi Consular plays the same skills, every Knight plays the same skills, those are games like SW:TOR, those with quickbar which I start to hate cause of the rigidity of the world and rigidity of gameplay, not to even mention the horrible stories and quests... Games like Skyrim,Oblivion, Jedi Academy, Gothic 1,2 , in these games you really felt like connected to the gamestyle you have picked..if it was passive approach with stealthing and camping (not just crouching and running around map backstabbing enemies like AC:Oddysey or LOTR:Shadow of War) or you picked to be the taunt who may be killed 20 times in 10 minutes, but will probably make a lot of frags too. I agree that where the game industry went is unpleasant...
theres like 2 servers that are always populated with real people, one that has lightsaber only no force powers, and the other one has everything enabled. (i forgot the actual name of those serves) The rest varies, sometimes they're filled with ai bots, sometimes empty. Should be the two top ones
I installed mods from the reccomended list and the game is broken, "can't spawn x npc" happening constantly. Are there tools that help you find which mod is breaking?
Any total conversions or new adventure mods for this? I also wish there was Jedi Academy 2 continuing the story of Jaden Korr. What a pity it ended here and seems like the new owner of the franchise, Disney, is none too interested. In some sense, this is better than Cal Kestis series.
Or go for jedi academy mod galactic legacy as it enchances the game way more then those who just add for effects you can litterly play as almost any charactor in this mod from whole sw
A few things: * Jedi Academy has a pretty fun Campaign. You could also play Jedi Outcast to know Kyle Katarn's story ;-) * It's not a very popular game for sure but there are always some players to play with
This might not be the place to say this but would OpenJK be able to implement map/mod downloads like in source games? JK has so many awesome maps and such but they're just not played. It bring the multiplayer to a new level if players didn't need to search for maps online just to play them.
@@igorthelight Right? Has anybody done it though and if not why not? It would be the best thing you could ever do for the multiplayer mode. That one feature was MASSIVE for Valve games and it's what made it's modding scene so incredible. JKA has tones of maps custom maps and nobody plays any of them.
@@drifter402 OpenJK tries to not change anything... Maybe adding this feature requires more changes that they are willing to make. I'm mostly a C# programmer but maybe I would look at OpenJK. Downloading custom maps and adding new rendering features would be interesting to try ;-)
This game rocks...I wonder why they did not use this story as a hint for the plot of the new trilogy, instead of making that trash I remember when I made a character just to hunt down lamers in servers xD such fun
The graphics part never had an issue went from playing god of war to a game from ps2... graphics are not an issue retro type how ever I have an issue with but I don’t need a graphics mod
Crazy enough, the console ports are still alive despite the company that ported it shutting down servers. The community made their own back door to enter PC servers from the main menu lmao
Yo the people who play on and run the KR server are some stuck up tight wads. I put KR in my name and they made me take it out. I lamed people, got booted. I said a swear word, got a strike. I played as Rosh, EVERYONE started gunning for me. 😔

Just swinging the lightsabre looks good. But starwars games miss the dance art they do in the movies. Here when fighting both just randomly hitting.
I will always love this game since it was announced. Is the perfect star wars game for dueling and the star wars vibe.

Jedi Academy was the best SW game. Especially live multiplayer.
I still very much prefer the Jedi Academy experience to Jedi: Fallen Order, which felt a bit more like Force Unleashed with all those button combos you have to nail... This is way more straightforward, way more satisfying and I wish Fallen Order felt more like Jedi Academy.
100% agree!
Jedi survivor would have been so much better w sith force abilities
There's a JAMP server with new players everyday (JoF) that is more active than ever before, with over 200 active players
The Jedi Academy mods I recommend are:
Escape: Yavin IV.
Escape: Yavin IV - The Lost Maps.
Epic Challenge Mod series.
Nina Anthology.
Wild Force.

What's funny, is that it's been years since I've quit playing JKA, but people still hate the butterfly...

Game would still look old but it's fun!
ty
Is there a discord for console, or is this old game cross play?
Consoles doesn't support mods so it's more alive on PC - that's for sure!
this game needs a new remake with the same combat
God bless you
its been a longggg time
I like playing older games
best sw game in history
Arriba JKHUB 💪
This game rocks...I wonder why they did not use this story as a hint for the plot of the new trilogy, instead of making that trash
I remember when I made a character just to hunt down lamers in servers xD such fun
Loved running online characters with full absorb just to counter the guys trying to electrocute everyone
Movie Duels is literally all you need
The graphics part never had an issue went from playing god of war to a game from ps2... graphics are not an issue retro type how ever I have an issue with but I don’t need a graphics mod
Play movie battles 2
Outcast is the best game though.
I disagree, I find the story of Jedi Academy much more engrossing. Also the returns to iconic Star Wars locations make my soul happy.
I love it but the maze like structure of the levels makes my head spin and I can't go through it without a walkthrough which is a bummer
Honestly admiral fyyar as a boss is way better than whatever jedi academy has to offer
Playing JKA in 2023? What is this madness.
Crazy enough, the console ports are still alive despite the company that ported it shutting down servers. The community made their own back door to enter PC servers from the main menu lmao
Yo the people who play on and run the KR server are some stuck up tight wads. I put KR in my name and they made me take it out. I lamed people, got booted. I said a swear word, got a strike. I played as Rosh, EVERYONE started gunning for me. 😔
I feel like the Jedi Knight games completely ruined star wars games forever because nothing was as good.
It's not their fault that other games are worse ;-)
No better star wars game. Ever.
.... ever.
