Today, the game’s lightsaber combat feels strangely loose and uncontrollable, the character just as liable to spin around than to slash in the direction I was hoping.
I’m much better at video game geography and logic now than I was when I first played the game, much more likely to prioritize strategies based on how games usually ask players to solve problems.
This mechanic, reminiscent of tabletop RPGs like Dungeons & Dragons, made it easier for players to identify with the character, more so because they could choose to express their opinions through light side or dark side actions. Coming five years before Hale would choose to voice the female Shepard, Jedi Academy came out the same year as Knights of the Old Republic, the first Star Wars game to allow a customizable character. That decision lead to the idea of a customizable character. If he were to take these missions, wouldn’t he just breeze through everything as a Jedi superhero?” “Kyle ended Jedi Outcast as a pretty powerful Jedi. It would not make sense to demote Kyle back to tyro status for just the beginning of the game, Zuk said. But in Jedi Academy, Katarn plays teacher, shepherding young protagonist Jaden Korr, whose gender, race, species, and clothing are customizable, throughout their mission. The game tends to be overshadowed in fan recollection by its predecessors, the Kyle Katarn-lead Jedi Knight games, which are considered some of the most entertaining shooter/action-adventure games in the Star Wars oeuvre. Eventually, Korr learns more about the cultists and thwarts their plan to resurrect Sith Lord Marka Ragnos. Jaden Korr is sent on missions around the galaxy, while Kyle Katarn and Luke Skywalker try to track down the cult. Before classes can begin, though, a Dark Jedi cult appears and attempts to sap Force energy from the academy buildings. Raven Software’s Jedi Academy is the tale of Jaden Korr, a Force-sensitive adult chosen to join Luke Skywalker’s Jedi Academy about 14 years after A New Hope.
Abrams would portray the Jedi school on the big screen. Years later, my familiarity with Luke Skywalker’s academy also meant that, when Episode VII was announced, one of my first questions was whether J.J. Time after time, I’ve filed the shoes of the space traveler attached to Jennifer Hale’s commanding voice.Maybe it was slightly easier to fit Commander Shepard’s shoes in Mass Effect because I’d already played as Jaden Korr in Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy, one of my first and favorite Star Wars video games.
