Bode is not an old best friend, Cal literally called him the “New Guy” and other members of the crew asked how the new guy did. Cal also asked Bode questions about himself because he was the “New Guy”.

Yeah I think the opening adventure is the first time they've worked together; there's a level of hesitation in their cooperation. It's also why Bode explains his personal story--which we find out later (in the sound memories) was a deliberate psychological approach to gaining Cal's trust. It's some cold CIA shit. Bode is a scary calculating dude. It's also worth noting that Bode wasn't a just a friend who betrayed Cal--he was undercover the whole time, and Cal+Cere were his operational targets. He was tempted to betray the empire and skip out with them, but ultimately he did to them what he was planning to do from the beginning... he just conveniently got rid of his empire spy boss at the same time.

But I too was thinking about Cal falling to the dark side being already set. When Cal is talking with Merrin about his fear of losing himself, Merrin tells him something like "if you ever stray from your path, we will guide you back", looks at BD, he boops. Or -whatever. . And I was like - here we go for no.3 story! It could be actually pretty amazing, having this arc, with dark Cal and playable Merrin at least for a part of the game..

At 22 minutes when you are talking bout why bode can't go anywhere else, it's safe to assume that there isn't. If his main goal is to protect his daughter, then he ain't gonna go to any planet controlled by the empire, which is most of the inner rim. Then you got the outer rim where the emptier barely goes cause of the fact it's so lawless. Youd be living in fear no matter what you do which probably isn't the best for your young daughter.

I stopped enjoying the game because I always felt like I was in a race to get to a checkpoint before it crashes and I couldn't enjoy cutscenes for fear of crashing during them which happened a few times forcing me to watch the entire cutscene again just to see the last minute or so. I also had to do the spamel run like three times. I was too infuriated and exhausted with the whole thing to enjoy the game as much as I probably would have otherwise. I didn't have too many performance issues though, no real stuttering and such. I do think I had some visual issues even though I have a beast of a machine and everything was on max. I had to turn off raytracing I think it was because that was causing major issues and doing so stopped my game crashing as often.

Were you on console or pc

God I really loved this game. I enjoyed Fallen Order, but wasn’t expecting or even really craving a sequel. When Survivor was announced, I was legit excited to see where they’d take the series and I was not disappointed. I played it on PS5 and luckily any performance issues I experienced did not hinder the overall game for me as much as it did for other. Some frame rate drops and screen tearing were the biggest issues for me and only had one or two hard crashes, but the core game itself really pulled me in to the point where those issues were not a major deterrent for me. Respawn was able to deliver on creating a legit amazing sequel, but was hindered by upper management (either in Respawn itself or EA) making them rush the game out in the state that it was. I feel like, if the game didn’t have its issues, we would be talking about this game as a serious GOTY contender. I cannot wait for the follow up to this game, I just hope that EA allows Respawn to cook like they did for this game, and allow them to complete their vision of this story without bogging it down by interference from management to rush the game or even to introduce some type of monetization (which thankfully was kept out of both Fallen Order and Survivor).

That "Speaking of Jesus, let's talk about enemies that respawn." made me laugh so hard!

I was busy with another game when this game released, so I figured I'd let this one slide for a while. Given the performance and technical stuff, I'm glad I waited but I'll probably wait a good while longer, especially as this year is stacked. I enjoyed the first game and this one looks even better, but I'm willing to wait for further improvements, particularly as I'm on PC.

Finding a mullet was incredibly exciting Luke. How could you be this wrong! 🤣🤣

i REALLY like how this video is structured and made very well done

I’m hoping the fact that they’ll almost certainly jump to UE5 for the the end of the trilogy and the backlog of assets they can implement that dev for the third will go more quickly . I think that bodes daughter will be a kind of padiwan/daughter to cal and merin and cal will have to face that threat of loss and dealing with his dark side up front. It seems tropey but they set it up and I wouldn’t be mad if they can execute it well

Two things I would say about this is I didn’t find Bode’s reasons for betrayal that good he could have hid his daughter on Tanaloor with the hidden path. In fact it would have been better for her instead of her being isolated and alone. My second point is a big positive I love how you didn’t get all your skills reset (other than the stims) unlike many games which give you a bs reason for why you no longer have your gear or abilities any more.

I like how Infamous 2 did it with good/bad karma. Making a choice for one side or another changed the powers you were able to use.

I didnt have THAT big of an issue with the map. Its similar to returnal’s maps and it was very useful to me. I get that its a big clunky and confusing at times and there were bugs with the zoom and view controls when using the map but overall i used it very often and it was effective at guiding me. I do agree that it could be wayyyy better though, there was basically no difference between this and the first game’s map system.

Happy to see this video pop up!

Bought this game on the 13th and just finished it earlier today. Happy to report with my ~30 hours on the game I only ever encountered 1 real bug which caused me to fall through the ground once . Glad I waited awhile after release to dive into it, I was a huge fan of the first one and I thought they did amazing with this one. I was extremely invested into the story and super satisfied with how it ended. Can't wait to see what they have planned for the next one!

Was unable to walk through some large, but clearly flimsy-looking, foliage that was placed in the middle of a path about 30 seconds after landing on the first planet. This told me all i needed to know about the dev team's design philosophy. Uninstalling fixed the issue.

Definition of broken: “having been fractured or damaged and no longer in one piece or in working order.“ Kinda wild I was able to complete something broken

For some reason one of the biggest issues I had with this game is that every fucking boss battle is in some sort of circular arena or room

I am a ridiculously huge fan of this jedi... series (?) of fallen order and survivor and i fell in love with the first game with all my heart i replayed it about a million times to scratch that itch. in this video specifically when luke points out the different stances and their various viability in different situations for different players, I figured the weakest would be the blaster-saber but after playing through the game for like 200 hours i found myself having used the blaster saber for probably 90% of the entire game. I kept the double-ended on me at all times for deflecting capabilities and special moves but the blaster-saber seriously was my absolute go to for general use. the fact you can use it to STUN enemies while slashing with your saber is absolutely crazy never mind the fact that the saber and blaster WORK TOGETHER IN COMBOS. literally one of the best things added to the game and i love that luke pointed it out. For anybody wondering if its good, im a balls-to-the-wall kill everything in sight as fast and as aggressively as humanly possible and this lightsaber-blaster stance is easily one of the best combinations ive ever used in any videogame in my entire life. TRY IT OUT.

Bode wasn’t working with Cal for years, in fact their first mission together is the first mission of the game. They say as much within the first couple hours or so.

This game was an amazing experience (in my opinion). The game had such a grand and cinematic approach that was really awesome to see! I played on ps5 on a big TV and a high-end home theater, and the soundtrack, sfx, graphics, cut scenes, basically just everything about it sucked me in. Despite a handful of bugs, I genuinely enjoyed this game. I can't wait to see how they conclude this story.

I really really liked this game, but the fact that I had the bug which wouldn't let me unlock the bounty hunter tree really made me feel like I'm missing a cool part of the game. That definitely colors my reception of this game overall.

I think in the next game, Cal is going to get that development of understanding Bode more. I think Kata will be like a daughter to Cal and i think shes going to show force powers and Cal will be faced with training her for her own protection, but understanding the risk that this puts her in. I think that he will face decisions where she is in danger and he must struggle with the darkside in that way and maybe find a balance like using the stance Vaapad like Mace Windu which in cannon taps into the darkside while balancing it with the lightside of the force. I think itd be cool for them to incorporate different lightsaber stances beyond like the daul weild, crossgaurd, ect. But the different stances in cannon that jedis use and have different pros and cons. Hopefully theyll find a way to give you access to all of them on the fly like Ghost of Tsushima and make them benefit different enemy encounters. I know thats a lot, but i think if this game takes another step forward like Survivor did from Fallen Order, i think its very possible.

The reason Bode didn't just 'pick any random planet' is that he is a combination of duplicitous and obsessive. He makes an irrational extreme decision that not only kills other people but actually endangers his own child because of his obsession with absolute control of the people and situations around him. He wants Tanalore bc it's the most extreme solution. The Jedi being there means he can't control the situation and Kata's safety. But in his pursuit of this, and his rage and paranoia influenced by being a dark side user, He drags his daughter to an unsafe place, with no clear plan for how she would grow up or live, and in the midst of the combat endangeres her. His dilemma is meant to be sympathetic, but he makes very bad choices. He is another reflection of how Anakin fell: Jedi are egotistical controlling warriors and it's a short walk from "protect my people" to mass destruction and death. I even think that if he had just surrendered Cal probably would not have executed him, but that was intolerable and Bode had put himself into a box where he had no ending but death. If he hadn't taken the compass, only betrayed them then left somewhere else in the galaxy, I really think Cal would have let him go. Even so, I think Cal's decision to pursue this place as a goal for the big rebellion plan is going to be a problem for his own journey in the next game. This is a foreshadowing for Cal's own potential fate.

Comment on the BD-1 commentary, you can use him before combat starts to take over robots which can help a ton on higher difficulty

My main problem with this game apart from the criminally flawed optimization is the navigation and level design. Not only do climbable and non climbable structures look identical but there are many platforms, walls and structures that look walkable when they aren't. You can easily reach them by jumping but you die from falling though the floor. It's inconsistent because other times they add so many lazy invisible walls or kill zones that you feel caged. I think the spamming of shortcuts is a band aid solution to the problem of navigation being tedious more than challenging, but fun. I haven't had this much trouble finding my way through a level without constantly opening the map since I was 6.

I guess I was lucky that (on PS5) the only issues I had were that some textures/environments had delayed loading and the doors inside the Pyloon's Saloon sometimes took a while to open

50:25 The "rewards" for exploration reminded me a lot of Hogwarts Legacy, mainly just cosmetics and nonsense to seem like you earned something useful, when in fact it won't make your life easier in any significant way

How badass would it be to be able to play as a cursed undead pirate chasing down the gold pieces from the first movie across the seas, or even a completely original story set in that universe.

It's also worth noting because when a game is broken at launch that has future implications. Specifically for physical collectors. If a game is broken at launch that mean anyone who has a day one disc has a broken copy on that disc. Once servers are inevitably shut down, we can't download the patches to "fix" the game anymore. That means the game/disc we have paid for is nearly useless despite having a physical copy u can hold in ur hands.

When you unlock the grapple launch pad a blue energy thing is supposed to appear and time slows down, it did once for me and one jump towards the end took around 40 tries with no way to beat it I just got lucky once doing nothing different from before

I had next to no issues on my PS5 and I had the game on launch. Only had bad frame rate once in the entire game

7:35 instead of bosses' heads, it could be small holograms you can check out. idk it would be weird if Cal had a room full of dead bosses' heads as some kind of trophy room.

supposedly the whole thing with "not being safe" anywhere but tanalorr i think is the idea that you can't escape the empire. Cal's hide and so many others have hid so many times and the empire still found them. Bode jumped at the idea of having a safe haven hidden from the empire and completely untraversable without the compass or crazy piloting. Since bode worked with the empire he was stuck in their custody but found a way to escape them permanently

About 5 trophies away from the platinum for this game on PS5 and I absolutely loved it. A lot more improved than Fallen Order and I loved that one also. Sucks that it launched with so many issues but glad I waited for a few patches.

The Empire is at it's peck of power by this point in star wars history, It s reaching everywere. And even if you go to outside the reach of the Empire, you would have to deal with Crime Lords and Outlaws. That's why the rebellion succeded, the were no easy way to continue a normal life under the Empire control. I recomend you to watch Andor, it is a great serie.

For the record. I played this on release on PS5 and I barely experienced huge bugs and glitches. For me I had a great time

“speaking of Jesus, let’s talk about enemies that respawn” - this might be my new fave Luke quote 🤣

They have trophies tied to some of the cosmetics so that was cool. For systems. Like the homage to cobra cai when you where the headband and fight the stormtrooper dummy in the jedha hanger in hidden facility that you meet cere at

I was bummed when I had to stop playing it 10 hrs into the game. The fps gave me a headache, like a strobe light, and with that awful map going in and out in and out of the map just crushed me! i deleted the game and threw it aside til they fix it.

For anybody struggling with the rancor, use dual sabers and go hyper aggressive and force him into a defensive pattern, and easily perfect deflect👍

i really enjoyed the game, was fortunate to avoid most of the performance issues (I think because AMD loves stuffing VRAM in their cards). Its really gorgeous in some spots, and I always love a good native photo mode. I do wish there were more planets - I think Koboh was needlessly large, especially because it wasn't very visually interesting. I liked exploring coruscant way more because it wasn't just another grassy planet. I also remember that the difficulty spike between knight and grandmaster was massive, almost like they needed another difficulty tier between them to hit the sweet spot.

Excellent review! You have a new subscriber 👌

“Speaking of Jesus, let’s talk about enemies that respawn…” Nice segue.

your wish for a POTC game would actually sound amazing!!! like imagine if we got to create our very own pirate in the world of the franchise, meeting characters from the films along the way etc etc. that’d be something i’d definitely be up for!

Not lying I didn’t expect the plot twist at all with Bode😂😂😂😂

53:42 "Holotactics" My disappointment was immeasurable when I found out Holotactics actually does not include all scanned enemies and the Rancor isn't a playable unit.

I've already waited this long, might as well wait until it goes on sale

I guess I'll return back to this video in a couple months when I finally buy the damn game.

"Speaking of Jesus, let's talk about enemies who respawn" is the funniest thing you've ever said.

Definitely agree it was a little weird that him embracing the dark side was never spoken about, however, it was the end of the game to be fair. Also cere was the only one who would really tell him not to go to the dark side but that would be a bit hypocritical since she also went dark. His girl friend (forgot her name) wouldnt really tell him not to either. I think this grey Jedi thing is going to be a focal point of the 3rd game.

I played it on PS5. The game was AMAZING! Graphics were grainy at times but the size, scope and gameplay are top notch 👌 👍 👏

Bode is not a friend of Cals for years they mention a couple times during courasant that this is bodes first mission with the crew and they're seeing If he's a good fit. Also cal and bode literally get to know eachother in the prolog

22:30 : slight spoilers for Andor, the Disney+ TV show. In that show, after the main characters pull of a heist and escape to a far-away remote planet, it hard cuts to some time later (weeks, months, years, I don’t remember) and the characters get found and arrested by the Empire for something completely unrelated. That showed just how vast and far-reaching the empire is, and that no matter where you go, they will be able to find you.

I bought this game day 1 and I felt like I was losing my mind, because I was having such bad screen tearing and frame drops, and no one else i personally knew playing the game said it was that bad. Even after all the patches I still had constant stutters in performance mode. At one point the cut scenes looked like they were running at 400p. I’m usually pretty tolerant to these issues but not with this one. I even forced my console to use VRR even though it said it wasn’t supported. I played on PS5 btw.

I’d love if in the next game if u were given the option to tap into the dark side and depending on how much u use it you’ll get a different ending kinda like web of shadows but more gameplay integrated to go with the soulsborn theming of this game’s gameplay

Luke, i love you and your videos and truly respect your perspectives on all games and i know its always frustrating when a game releases with bugs and glitches and yes, its true for this game too especially on pc. But i preordered it for the Ps5 and it actually wasnt bad at all for me personally on ps5, did see some bugs and frame rate f ups but generally, wasnt bad

Games coming out broken has become a plus to me. As long as it's broken, its the perfect motivation to NOT buy the game. And the longer it sits on the shelf, the cheaper it gets. Therefore, by the time all the patches that fixes the game come out, the game is already on sale. That's how I got a workout copy of Cyberpunk for $25. Broken releases can benefit the consumer and hurt the corporations like this.

I was looking forward to this game so much. I had to play almost two playthroughs to get the bounties to work. Even after patch 1.06, the final two bounties wouldn't trigger. This resulted in running through the game as fast as possible on my second playthrough just to finish things up. That plus the performance issues took this from an easy 9/10 for me to a 7. Unfortunately, it also took Respawn off of my 'preorder without question' list.

I really want them to explore him leaving the code behind but not evil. Like a true Gray Jedi.

I didn't have any technical issues on my xbsx at launch. Shame people suffered issues. But i had a rather great experience on day one

Personally i had it way easier than you seem to when it came to the map, its not perfect but i could read it well and didn't really feel like it wasn't enough, it follows star wars lore and is kinda just a product of the universe. I find maps like the one in ark where you can't see yourself so you need to already know the map like the back of your hand way worse because it actively makes me disregard the map in every way because I don't have a real use for it

Did u all forget : Kratos has done that TWICE putting hope into humanity and being better than gods. In GOW 3 he decides to release hope into the world instead of giving it to Athena so no its not char development for Kratos in Ragnarok cause he has done that before if anything its a rehash of what happens in GOW3 but with a different deity and mythology and order of events since in one he gives ppl hope after he destroyed the gods and here he is giving hope to loki before the gods destroy the world.

I thought bode was new to the crew or atleast that's what I got from the dialog and that's what set my doubts into motion

yeah I think the first time cal works with him is the first mission of the game

Yeah, they even refer to Bode as "the new guy" several times in the intro mission.

Real shame that the bounty board got bugged completely, I could not do anything with it =( Also Merrin for life! Damn she is adorable =) Also i really love Kata´s song at the end beautiful voice

Yeah Cal met bode on that job. When you know the twist and do a new game+ , the hints are there. I kept getting lost & the map was useless.

11:14 someone already addressed this but it is clearly stated that bode is the new kid to the group

That would be a great Tshirt for your shop: "...speaking of Jesus,let's talk about enemies that respawn."🤣🤣🤣👍🏻

Speaking of Pirates of the Caribbean game I think blade runner would be a crazy open world game

Bode is a blood hound fang, I screamed it when I was playing 💀

There are a few spots on Koboh that I get some frame drops. Other than that, my experience on PS5 has been seamless and smooth from day one

The big problem with the “plot twist” was that they did AFTER you defeated Rayvis and Gera. There was no immediate threat and things seemed to be going a little TOO well, so it was pretty obvious that something was coming. They even had Cal confront Bode about his clear disappointment in Cals idea right before everything happened. You knew Cordova, Cere, Greez, or Merrin would never betray you, so of course it had to be the new guy.

I agree that you could see the twist coming a mile away, but for me, the way Bode's story and situation with his daughter was handled after that was so well done that I think it more than made up for it. That conversation at the Imperial base, kept civil only for the daughter's sake... man, that was some good writing and acting.

Quick way to fix the useless loot issue you bring up would be for ALL cosmetics to be sold at vendors. The loot in the world is the payment they take. So no matter what, the loot is valuable and you can use it to buy exactly what you want. That way you can get the Runesaber of Edgelordyness as soon as possible and let Mama's Favorite Pink Poncho peg warm in the cantina forever.

41:03 they were. My first play through of FO I think I ended up with 5 stims. I got all 12 stims easily in survivor

Im lucky i only had a few glitches throughtout my enitre playthrough so for me its definetley a 8/10
