Is JKO still worth a replay? The lightsaber combat is obviously still GOAT, and the graphics aren't that shit considering its age. I'm feeling really nostalgic for the single player campaign.
>>
No, it's not worth a replay. Don't replay it!
>>
Just do it.
>>
>not playing multiplayer as fat greedo and kissing strangers

It's like you want to play a worse version of the game.
>>
>>321888141
It's pretty fun and it's really short if you've played it before
>>
whatever you do - don't replay, I'm begging you!!!

Thanks to all this Star Wars hype I really want to replay this game. Loved it back in the day, hopefully it will run on Win7.
>>
>>321888141
I'm replaying it OP, it's actually still a solid game. I was impressed how well it aged. Even pixelated as it is compared to newer games, the movement and shooting doesn't feel terrible.
>>
>>321889374
Well it runs in win10 so 7 shouldnt be an issue

>>321888141
Why do you ask permission from /v/ first before playing a game?
>>
>>321889046

The gameplay is one of the best I've ever tried. Think war of the roses, but with more maneuverability and more combat options. There's a reason people are still making multiplayer clans for these games.

It's also the only Star Wars game that got Force Powers right. You can get creative with them, like choking an enemy into the air and then throw your lightsaber at him, or choke and electrocute and watch him fly Mace Windu style, or choke and force push (or just drag your mouse) to throw them off ledges and into walls. Pretty much one of the best SW games out there, and is still a shitload of fun if you hate SW.

This is the worst problem of JK:O, it has some of the worst level designs I have ever seen in a video game. After Nar Shadaa and when you meet Lando you'll have to get ready to alt tab some walkthroughs assuming the old windows colors the game is set to doesn't break your computer. Then you get to the instant death traps you don't or wouldn't expect to do 100% damage.
>>
So which is better? JKO or JKA?

Which is better in single and multiplayer?
>>
>>321893949
single : outast (by far)
multi: academy
>>
>>321893594
Although the desing in some level was really fucking confusing, i didn't stop me from complete the game back when i was a kid.
>>
Lando escort mission sucked the wind from my sail the last time I tried to play it.
>>
>>321893949
JKA in both ways. JKA story isn't as good as JKO, but it's a much better designed and balanced game
>>
>>321889567
The shooting actually doesn't feel so great compared to its predecessor Jedi Knight.

I'm not totally sure why. I think it's a combination of the blaster bolts being very slow and the hitboxes for enemies being very small.
>>
>>321894042
>People thinking outcast has better single player
I don't know why this always happens, JK3 is one of my favorite games but I dropped Outcast because the level design is shit and where the fuck is my lightsaber?

It's the story. Jedi Outcast actually has one, and it's pretty immersive to boot. Jedi Academy has better level design though, no question.
>>
>you will never force grip Jan's ass

>>321894567

>>321890453
>The forced stealth part
when?
the part where you had to disable the red tubes and find out how to climb the hover cart was fucking stupid, but the tunnels are usually just "run through and you'll eventually find where you need to go"
>>
>>321895137
>So does Academy, and it's pretty good
Most of the missions have nothing to do with it. They're all separate, smaller because consoles levels.
>>
>>321893949
I've played Academy once a long time ago, and all I remember is disappointment, jank, and disjointedness.
>>321894335
Did you really not reach the lightsaber and dare to cast any judgment about the whole shebang? Never mind that 3 of the 4 pure shootan levels are great.

The only stealth part was the very beginning of that level with the searchlights and even then all getting caught does is make you have to fight a few more troopers that run out of the tower. Not bullshit in the slightest.

The shooter levels are great and when you then finally get your Light Saber your mind is just absolutely blown at how the game becomes entirely different.

If you're like me and went into this game without any knowledge about it there is no bigger "OH SHIT" in all of vidya when Desann pulls out his Lightsaber for the first time

So how many of y'all played the multiplayer of Jedi Academy? Did any of you join any roleplaying clans, or was it saber fighting (FFA) only?

Personally, I was in a roleplaying clan called CF which had progression ranks for its members (initiate, padawan, knight, master, council master) and story "missions" each weekend - hosted by the clan leaders. Pic related. Shit was so fucking cash. I've never been able to replicate that feel in any game since.

>>321896640
I was in a clan that did the ffa final destination rules thing. But instead of japlus we used clanmod and messed around with base a lot. The other ffa clans fucking hated us.
>>
>>321893949
As people have said, Outcast has a better story, but Academy has better level design. Academy has a good variety of level types and environments, like being on top of a speeding vehicle in Coruscent, or fleeing a Rancor until you set pieces in motion to trap and kill it, playing the floor-is-lava with sandworms, speedbike racing/fighting, etc. As well as general 'go around level and murder everything until you find the means of progression'
Although my personal favourite is the Corriban underground temple level.
>Cool statues of omnious sith lords
>Deep chasms you have to navigate around to get down safely
>Hilarity ensuing when dark jedi try to jump up to fight you and you force push their dumb asses into the chasm mid-jump
That was a truly great level.

The killing Jan bit kinda sucked yeah, but using your rage to kill Maw, plus the way it changed the rest of the game was pretty great. That fucking ending scene too, Kyle with his giant throne room and new Sith waifu.
>>
>>321899854
You kill the floating guy who killed your dad. Then Jerec tells you to kill Jan to complete your journey to the dark side. If you do, you're instantly evil for the rest of the game. Pretty lame IMO.
>>
>>321899963
He doesn't regret it, he is overwhelmed by the pull of the dark side and the shit about his father being murdered being brought up.

Dark Side Kyle is just a straight up cunt though.
>>
>>321900046
Oh. That does sound a bit weak. At least Zannah had a solid case of repeatedly losing everything she loved until she became completely jaded.
>>
>>321900046
You don't actually get a choice whether Kyle kills Jan or not, it depends on how you played the game up until then which way he goes.

I heard all sorts of praise for the DB trilogy and when I read it I was immensely disappointed by how fucking shallow it was in everything.

There were a few good moments, mostly from Zannah's perspective, like her trying to take that Dark Jedi as her apprentice.
