Star Wars Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast reviews

Translated by

Of the many Creations we owe to the Star Wars Universe (and there are quite a few, let's face it and let's rather not start counting, that lasts forever), Jedi knights, the Power and Lightsabers are certainly a few of the best and best known. At the Beginning of Jedi Knight 2: Outcast, Kyle Katarn has neither a Lightsaber nor is he a Jedi Knight; With the Force has completed his former Adventures in the Valley of the Jedi (the Prehistory can be played in Jedi Knight/Dark Forces 2 and Jedi Knight: Mysteries of the Sith) he has ticked off and is now only a Mercenary in The service of the Republic, along with his Partner Jan Ors. The first Missions are therefore contests with the other Arsenal of weapons alone, from the rechargeable Sniper Weapon to the E-11 Blaster Of the Stormtroopers, Rocket Launchers and Thermal Detonators are also there, Wookie Bow Spanners and a few more. All Weapons have two Modes of fire. In Time, the Story brings you back into Contact with the Lightsaber and Power; Overall, the Story that the "Jedi Outcast" is struggling to make would be quite suitable for a Film Adaptation. From big imperial Plans, Weird Gangsters, performances by Star Wars Legends Lando Calrissian and Luke Skywalker, as well as a big dark Jedi and Very different Levels and tasks, all that makes up a good Star Wars Game is included, which is the Mood Held almost continuously at a higher Level. The Jedi Fighting Science is not yet quite as sophisticated as in the Successor Jedi Academy, but Outcast offers a slightly higher Identification and Touch With the Hero. For me, Kyle Katarn is one of the best Character Creations that the expanded Universe beyond the movies has to offer. Unfortunately, outside of the Outcast games, he has found only rudimentary entry into the Book series and only three narrow graphic novels (only the first of which appeared in German as the first "Soldier of the Empire") have his Story on the Subject alone. If you want to invest a few Hours in the Star Wars Adventure of an outcast Jedi Knight, you will find a varied, occasionally tricky Gaming experience, in the Course of which he will convert more Stormtroopers and Hutt Mercenaries than himself Han Solo can claim as himself. He will have to allocate his Power of Power well and also otherwise it sometimes becomes a slightly delicate Matter, especially in Terms Of Wayfinding and Attention to the Environment. But who is already shunning the Challenge. May power be with you. Another Tip: You should also play the Game as a German with the English Voiceover, optional With German Subtitles. The German Edition isn't bad, but doesn't quite do justice to the cool, rebogged figure of Kyle Katarn And makes him a little too good. P.S.: The Multiplayer of the Game, which was once quite greasy, is now unfortunately chronically understaffed, very few Servers run anymore. Too bad, because the very simple, but always action-packed game Types, the nice arsenal of weapons scattered across the Cards and the Balance of Laser cost fights and other Weapons, used to be a very big, entertaining Pleasure. However, you can play very easily against Bots of different Levels of difficulty-that still makes you feel like it every now and then. Or you can organise a small Lan. From 4 Players, some maps can be quite fast and funny.
