Kesper North posted:On PC, is there a way to sheathe your lightsaber while using your first equipped stance? Hitting C always switches to your second stance before it lets you sheathe it. Default controls, X is to select stance 1, C for stance 2. So if you're already in stance 1, hit X to sheath .

Chiming in while avoiding the rest of the thread for spoilers since I haven't finished the game yet, I figured out how to bind controls to the mouse thumb buttons on PC: Use WASD to navigate to the command you wish to assign to a thumb button (evade or force push/pull or whatever), select it with space or enter so it is waiting for the input, hold down left click on the mouse and then hold down the thumb button you wish to use and it should work. It won't work if you just hold the thumb button, for some reason you have to hold down left click on the "press button" prompt and then hold the thumb button. One issue that I seem to have is certain quick time events that require mashing evade or whatever you have assigned to a thumb button doesn't appear to work (they may just be broken period though, seems people with default controls are still having the same issue), you may just have to toggle the "always succeed" QTE thing in accessibility options because gently caress QTEs anyway.

i agree, padawan is best fun per hour, and there is no shame in it this game is pretty epic, i am impress. a fair few fiendish jumping puzzles but a decent number of them are really fun to execute my least favorite: anything involving caves i never need to go back to the phon'qi (lol) caverns again, no sir Kesper North fucked around with this message at 13:20 on May 6, 2023 |

Went back to the post game, checked out the new echoes (the lullaby ), recruited some Jawas, and explored that whole rear end area I didn’t even know existed - lmao at the It’s A Trap! achievement, those punks all thought they were Billy Badass, huh?

I don't know why but it took me ten hours of gameplay to realize I can just switch stances mid-combo. If you go single + crossguard it looks like Cal is kickin on some rockets to swing harder. https://i.imgur.com/lcptgr7.mp4

The game also never tells you can can use the attack/parry buttons to speed up/slow down when on cables with BD-1, only that you can switch directions

JBP posted:I think Merrin is a fine supporting character but I don't give a poo poo what she does outside of helping a Jedi. This. I don't get the extreme thirst for her other than the standard, "gamers are thirsty for any young female in a video game," vibe. I find it interesting in the same way people were super thirsty for Tali in Mass Effect because it's a young, odd woman who is unfamiliar with mainstream culture and social nuances and thus needs to be "taught" how poo poo works. They both have the same faux vaguely eastern European/bullshit Slavic accent, too. At least in this game Merrin has figured poo poo out and is self sufficient, unlike Tali who was blundering through poo poo well into the third game. Jedi Knight Luigi posted:No it doesn’t.

I'm sorry you got spoiled, it's a really great reveal, but knowing its coming won't at all diminish the fight, for what that is worth. It was one of the best moments of the game. The way its done really elevates Jedi Survivor's story. I loved that moment a lot.

Yeah it's much more focused on parrying, but there's better feedback on parrying and on when the enemy is going to counter attack. I picked it up after playing Fallen Order because a lot of people said they're somewhere similar, and now it's one of my favorite games of all time.

It makes him much, much easier.

WattsvilleBlues posted:Which puzzels have you puzzled? Path of Conviction is the current one, though I was flailing away at the cannon in the moon area until the game suddenly decided to accept I pressed the buttons in time instead of dropping me to my death. It also seems impossible to do the jumping between posts in the monastery area in Jedha for one puzzle; Cal just decides he won't cling to the walls in question halfway through and falls to his death (the system also decided to randomly save me a ways back from there and not reset my position to where I started the jumping puzzle even when I wandered elsewhere and saved the game). If they even allowed one extra second in timing for some of these drat things it wouldn't be as frustrating. Ah well, can't play right now since EA poo poo the bed so I'll check YouTube to see if there's any trick I'm missing for this one at least. Just sucks when I know what I need to do but the game insists on not letting me do it fast enough.

So it looks like I'm going to end up using the two new stances, even though I thought I wouldn't. Blaster is too good and crossguard is a radical enough difference that it's also fun. I wonder if the game has some internal system of "levels," because I revisited an earlier area to try and find a bounty hunter* and encountered one if the wampa guys, and it went down way faster than it did when fighting it earlier. * Speaking of this, is there a good way to find them other than googling? I don't want to have to blindly scour the entire area the lady tells me to look in. Also, can you encounter bounty hunters other than the ones she mentions? Skippy McPants posted:I dunno if they ever mention it in Fallen Order, but as I recall, Dathomirian men live in a separate society and are regarded more as slaves and beasts of burden by the Nightsisters. So, uhh, Merrin might not have even thought of them as people due to her upbringing. Merrin is an Israel allegory
