everyone has their own style when it comes to reviews, i think its important that you find one where you feel comfortable, otherwise im liking this vid
@@garrettjohnson6914 Thanks. Much appreciated.
Thats true, although anyone can improve with the right feedback.
@@AnvilGaming I never heard of the term Cortosis Reborn, but when I played those black armored force wielders, they were called Shadow Troopers.
What I loved the most about Kyle's character development is the way he reacts when people say "May the Force be with you" to him throughout the game. He starts with "It hasn't been so far." Then it goes through the "Thanks", the "We'll see" and the "Yeah, you too" until he finally says it back, which is also the last line of the game. It's so beautiful because it is so subtle.
Yes! I fully agree.
That was fantastic character development!
I enjoyed your analysis.
It's a shame no single player Star Wars game has been able to top JO/JA in 20 years.
Fallen Order was quite good, but I wouldn't say that it topped JA.
@@BrassBoy-ot4syjedi knight lacks good level design and is really short and easy.
@@BrassBoy-ot4sy Fallen Woke lmao.
Ah the early 2000s gaming, the best times
32:10 There's also unused 4th level for mind trick only accessible by cheats, with which you can control enemy you choose
As a kid I grew up playing the sequel, Jedi Academy, and only after a while I got my hands on this one. This one seemed longer and more complex to me than Jedi Academy. Sometimes I would even get lost or stuck at this game. Thanks for the nostalgia! :D
When my siblings and I first got this game as a copy from a friend, we were stuck on Kejim for years, and could only go further with cheat codes. It was only after we used a walkthrough after some years that I could actually play through Outcast properly. The two games are still some of my favourites. Even though I have not played them in 5 or 6 years, I can still remember most of what happens in each game.
I can relate to what you're saying. Some of Outcast's missions were quite tricky and you'd find yourself lost often. Academy was pretty much straightforward compared to the previous one. I'm at an age where I no longer have time or patience for gaming, however this remains part of my childhood. These games had a certain quality and felt much more rewarding than more modern games. Cheers!
Id like to see you cover the entire story of kyle katarn
I would like to as well!
These games are timeless. And a devoted community that has made enhancements to all 3 games + the expansion pack will hopefully make newer players give these classics a shot. All 3 are masterpieces, jedi knight will always be my favorite one tho. I just love how they had fmv's for the cutscenes.
This game was fun, and aggravating, and frustrating, and fun. Thanks for this review. Brought back memories
I loved all those dark forces and jedi knight games. But today's Jedi fallen order and jedi survivor are absolute masterpieces 🤗 Huge and captivating with best graphics. jedi survivor is probably the best looking game I've ever played
Great content.....you really nailed all those little details that make this game and era of gaming so incredible!
I like how you use the quote "trust me on that".
Finally someone gets it!
What’s the reference?
@@kaneclarke4825 Kyle says it in the game
24:01 not a lot games have this anymore. fantastic stuff
Outcast and Academy are golden gems. I really enjoyed Star Wars as a child, but never knew about what the Expanded Universe and playing Outcast then Academy is what introduced me to all the books/comics.
Recently downloaded Academy on Xbox and it’s bought a nostalgic tear to my eye playing it.
How is it to play them with a controller? I only ever played them on PC. Also, on Xbox, can you play at 1440p?
great upload , I am picking this one up..
Throughout the years this is the one game I never put away. It still functions on Windows 10 64 bit perfectly.
Can't say the same for Halo. What happened to game discs just working????
Amazing about outcast was its moding capability. Also you could import the game into Academy and had its graphical goodies and you were able to play with a staff and dual Light sabers.
I modded shit out of this game. I still love it to this day man. Best ever.
Fun fact: When you use cheat code setforceall 7 when using mind trick, you could play as an imperial and use him.
Bro you convinced me to purchase the bundle pack off amazon lol
I did to bud I have the old pc discs for all the dark forces games but nothing that will run them and these are pretty much in my top 10 games of all time so it was a no brainer for $20
Good stuff right here!
Appreciate it!
When I was young I was stuck on tge Nar Shadaa mission for months even stopped playing for a while. Eventually I found a written guide and progressed. 😅
Glad I found your review of the game on steam
Ah awesome! I wasn't sure if anyone could see my reviews on there.
@Teh Psychedelic ah that’s so good. I appreciate the vote of confidence haha.
Enjoy!
Remember to check out “PCGaming Wiki” for Jedi Outcast for the various fixes.
10:52 good point about that scene. I remember, some people tried to play the scene with invulnerability cheats and they didn't know what was going on: they couldn't win and thus, te level never ended 🤣
Actually as a kid I didnt know you get a lightsaber because nobody got to this point yet. I just thought: "Cool I can play a fps just like my older brother".
And then when I got the lightsaber I was like: "DUUUUUUUUUUUUUDE WTF? That's awesome!!!"
1989-2003 WAS THE GOLDEN AGE of VIDEO GAMES!
im curious if youll do a video on the mods movie battles 2 and movie duels for jedi acadamy
keep up the great work im going to go back and watch some more of your vids now
Hmm, i have downloaded those mods, although I haven't had the chance to try them out or even find playable servers. Since i'm in Australia, the ping would be pretty high.
I might check them out in the future, but at this stage my plan is to cover a variety of older games to fill up my catalogue.
Thanks.
Wow that's amazing
I would suggest to Mind Trick Dessan in the final stage, you won't believe how much force he have
Amazing
The virtual reality port is amazing, I highly suggest anybody with a headset try it out!
After a fully charged shot.... nice edit
@27:17 THAT SCREAM! :P
Funniest part about the series! Hahaha
will there be another codex entries?
Great! 💪🏻😎🔥
This was by far one of the (verry few) best games i've ever played!
This game need's a Remake for sure.
I never played this game, skipping directly to Jedi Academy. I hope I will find the time to, someday.
How to tell if someone used to play a lot of Jedi Outcast / Academy multiplayer?
They use Heavy stance for poking while saber dueling enemies. ( Click and strafe right to have the character swing right and you try and land and keep the tip of the saber on them as accurately as possible, as long as possible, enabling you to one-shot enemies. )
The roll stab move was the best in online lobbies haha
@@idiot_city5244 Except that one was heavily telegraphed and until you cycled through the rolling animation and could actually throw the stab out, a more knowledgeable player would side step out of the way and slash diagonally upwards while stepping back ... had that done to me so many times in JKA MP, not so much in JKO since that one's moveset was more limited.
Nothing beats their Multiplayer game modes and story bugs
Dark Forces II: Jedi Knight would be more like Stanley Kubrick style movie!
yes i think there game should be remake again to let more people know
Any video on dark force 2? That's still my favorite
I haven't played Dark Forces yet. But that is definitely on my to-do list.
@Anvil Gaming not dark forces. Dark forces 2 : jedi knight
I prefer the campaign in this game compared to Jedi Academy, since in this game it makes you feel like an unstoppable stormtrooper killing machine. Whereas Academy throws bullet spongy type enemies at you instead.
you forgot the best part of this game - the console.
/map the_pit
and then an endless loop of: /npc spawn tavion
i didn't enjiyed jedi outcas at all but i do loved jedi academy
Plus Disney Star Wars is awful and the expanded universe is great
