I didn’t expect it to feel this... sweaty. Like, half the time I forgot I was clicking through dialogue boxes because the whole thing just drags you into this weirdly desperate rhythm between blaster fights and heavy breathing. The story pretends to be about some rebellion nonsense, but no one cares about that once Kaylan starts flirting with the Jedi girl who clearly doesn’t follow any of that emotional discipline talk. You can tell the writer’s a real fan of the original universe, but also probably got bored halfway through and decided every lightsaber duel should end with someone pressed against a wall instead of a victory pose. It’s messy, but in a way that fits. The transitions jump too fast after the first climax scene, like they didn’t want to admit how good it actually turned out.

There’s this one moment where you’re supposed to choose between saving the princess or chasing the Sith, and I swear the game just mocks you either way. If you go for the princess, she’s already halfway naked when you find her, and if you chase the Sith, he’s got that weird grin like he knows what you wanted. The CGs are detailed in the wrong places sometimes - like the background looks like a potato, but then skin texture looks almost too real. I kept noticing that and forgetting to read the dialogue, which might be the point. The romance isn’t really romantic, though; it’s more like a fever that burns too hot, then cools off with a sigh that doesn’t feel earned. Still, I liked it. Or maybe I liked hating it. Hard to tell.

Anyway, the sound design deserves a mention - moans layered with hums of starship engines actually make sense here. The awkward pauses in the action scenes, too, they somehow make it feel more human, less like the usual glossy stuff. It’s rough, inconsistent, and occasionally hilarious for all the wrong reasons. But every time I tried to stop, I just... didn’t.
