Good for you. I don't care how long it was. It was still a bad game.If you raise the difficulty, the game lasts longer.
While I can understand complaints about quick time events, and sometimes they are done badly, at the same time I think they're great. I have nothing against cutscenes, but it is rather cool to actually have a say (of sorts) in how a spectacular cutscene goes down.Vympel wrote:And every QTE in the game rules.

I don't see how, really. Have you read the book? I've skimmed it in the store. It's easily waved away.How the hell can they just leave this huge gaping massive plothole! It doesn't make sense! If you take this into canon for Wars - then the begining of Episode IV is thrown to hell.

It's actually over very quickly (way, way, way less than 15 minutes - more like 5) when I realized the TIE Fighters can be gripped. Or use lightning on them.5 minutes? My wife spent over an hour and a half on it. While trying to beat it, she related a story she read about how it made a kid cry.
It took me probably about 15 minutes to beat it, and I didn't die.
It was broken, but I'd rather do that again than Fable's prison sequence.
Unless the book says differently, there's a potential contradiction regarding the discovery of the Death Star. It seems to contradict the X-Wing game, where the existence of the Death Star was discovered by a monitoring station some time after the Rebel Alliance was formed. I'm not sure what other sources say about the discovery of the DS.Vympel wrote:I don't see how, really. Have you read the book? I've skimmed it in the store.

I basically used lightning but had to rely on the auto-targeting. I didn't manage to grip the TIEs, but I could grip that barrel and throw it at the fighters.It's actually over very quickly (way, way, way less than 15 minutes - more like 5) when I realized the TIE Fighters can be gripped.

Frankly, SW stories have ALWAYS had stupid lamer stories that didn't fit the movies and were also boring. This stupid lamer story might not fit the movies either (depending) but at least it isn't boring hackneyed nonsense as well.Vympel wrote: I don't see how, really. Have you read the book?

There's also going to be a sequel, so I wouldn't assume too much, if you know what I mean, in relation to the characters that survive.
In order to grip them, just wait until they're making their turn when they're closest to you - simply holding them in place is enough to kill them and the next fighter that comes, usually.I basically used lightning but had to rely on the auto-targeting.

I like TFU's story, on its own merits - it strikes me as subjectively "wrong" when put against the movies, but then, most EU stories do anyway.Frankly, SW stories have ALWAYS had stupid lamer stories that didn't fit the movies and were also boring.

I only noticed that in my second playthrough (I just finished Imperial Kashyyyk). Hilarious easter egg.I wonder if that was Jar Jar in carbonite in Captain Sturms trophy room,
Nope, hadn't even skimmed the book, so I didn't know the had a way of waving it away, just went by what the game had going (Wii version anyway..).Vympel wrote:I don't see how, really.

It's terrible, but it fits the cackling comicbook villain thing they have going on. I'm certain the writers thinks it's seamless and brilliant, which is funny shit.Vympel wrote: It's not perfect, but at least the obvious question is directly addressed.
