3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Snagged Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy for $3.50 and have been enjoying it with the config files altered for higher damage/dismemberment with lightsabers.

Makes fighting force users really tactical because you have to avoid their saber too, dismemberment affects you and is an instant death. You can get cool kills like rolling underneath their saber throw and Darth Maul'ing them while they're unable to deflect you, etc.

Incredible Jedi power fantasy, as much as I like Fallen Order it just doesn't sell you on the fact that you have a lightsaber in your hands as much as Outcast and Academy do with the damage increased. Hell you can kill stormtroopers just by walking into them and moving your blade slightly, now that's a lightsaber!

Look up the Movie Battles II mod if you plan on taking that game online. It enhances the already great lightsaber combat and still has a pretty active community (I'm pretty sure you can also jump into single player with the mod for the quality of life features it adds)

As a kid I used to have keybinds setup in Jedi Outcast (bind k "NPC spawn stormtrooper")that would let me spawn different enemies on me while notarget was on and g_saberrealisticcombat at 3. Hours of entertainment till the game would inevitably crash from too many enemies
