finally beat this nonsense. i thought it was over at the natural end point, but then there was like 10 more hours left SMH. game was bloated as shyt. still, some pretty cool setpieces and environments, i get why the filesize is nuts. storywise, lots of little plot developments for the trilogy overall, but the game itself didn't have much to offer on its own. its like, oh that's a cool payoff from the first game and oh ok so that should be cool for the third game, but all the stuff that begins and ends in this game was mid. still, some satisfying moments and nothing beats being a jedi sometimes.
at the end of the day i'm giving the first game the higher score. hopefully they keep things simpler and tighter for the third game. the combat needs an overhaul as well, you can tell they built themselves into a corner with all these cheap ass bosses that reveal their bullshyt on higher difficulties. most likely though, the third game is going to be even messier technically and plotwise, smh.
