What if the original Lucasfilm/LucasArts developer studio would still exist and could create a new PC-exclusive Star Wars Jedi Knight FPS pushing PC hardware to the limit. How would look like?
It will never turn into a game. Thanks to consoles, Disney and EA we can't have nice things.

bump for interest.
theres about to be some top tier banter in this thread
Isaac Sullivan
Looks cool
Noah Sanders
Unlike console shit release in current year it's a free download! Just get it and see if your toaster can run it!
Or is it beyond your skills, when you can't click ready-to-go stuff on Steam, user?
Isaiah Russell
no thanks.
Jack Ortiz
It's GPU porn, fam. It's supposed to do that.
Nathan Williams
Who cares? It looks like shit.
Ian Richardson
Anybody who has played good Star Wars games during the 90s?
Matthew Collins
And what's supposed to be good about this bloom and lens flare garbage?
Nathaniel Sanchez
Nigga are you blind?
Jaxson Stewart
itt: consolefags mad as hell
Robert Rogers
It does look like someone smear shit across the screen.
Carter Jackson
It would have been shit so who cares
Robert Lee
What I'd give for a new SW game that doesn't suck.

Bentley Wood
7 gb download . i'll pass
Jaxon Allen
Ist a demo map, not a game. It has markers so you can find stuff.
7 GB for a single map, that's how we would do proper PC games. console peasants will get something like this in 2025 earliest.
Colton Taylor
That would be nice. Jedi Outcast was good shit.
Chase Sanchez
Seems nobody knows classic SW PC games, because they all played Pokemon on their Nintendo.
Hudson Hughes
It's not a game moron, it's a tech demo.
Hudson Thompson
Dark Forces 2 > Dark Forces > Mysteries of the Sith > Jedi Outcast > Jedi Academy
I'm not sure a modern Dark Forces game could be good, the shooter genre has degenerated to a point where the levels would basically have to be boring. As graphics got better level design got less abstract and less about gameplay than looks.
Elijah Hill
EA's just gonna steal this idea for Battlefront 2 Star Wars edition while Disney will DMCA him for it.
Justin Lewis
Rev up those dmcas cause I sure do love getting fucked in my ass.
Guarentee this cuck will take the ceese and desist lying down like a fucking bitch instead of flipping the assets with something not copyrighted trademarked just like always happens.
Bentley Garcia
It shows 2 fucking suns. What do you expect you nigger.
Jack Allen
Daily reminder that DICE have begun butchering Dark Forces/Jedi Knight content to help them sell more Battlefront DLC.
Pics related are some of the guns they're advertising now.
Jeremiah Turner
It's a Star Wars locale developed by a bunch of Star Wars fans in Obsidian as a fan tribute to Star Wars. If they were to get rid of all recognisably Star Wars assets, it would defeat the entire point.
Joshua Mitchell
Y.
Hunter Martin
They are overdoing it with those filters to the point it looks like a smudge rather than anything good. Was this made by a German by any chance?
I thought they abandoned EAFront?
Jonathan Wood
Fuck you, EA.
Xavier Morales
Live long and prosper
Josiah Phillips

Dominic Hughes
The best thing about the Jedi Knight games was the light saber fights. Of course, Disney completely ruined light sabers now.
Kayden Russell
The best thing in Outcast and Academy. Dark Forces and Jedi Knight put a focus on shooting and were great. I think the last two games suffered from the focus on lightsaber combat but they were so good at it that I didn't care.
Joshua Ramirez
Maybe it's foreshadowing a crappy new triple-A instalment in the Dark Forces series.
Oh no, wait, I almost forgot that it's all non-canon now. So yeah, they're just scavenging for designs from better games that they can remodel and desaturate until they're as generic as possible.
And Kyle Katarn is worse than dead; he's an unperson.
Austin Morris
I don't think they suffered from that. Was fun as hell, especially in multiplayer.
Jason Williams
Every weapon except the lightsaber sucked in the last two games, especially compared to the previous games.
Robert Jones
That's a bit contradictory, but I think I understand what you're saying.
Certainly I can't think of any games with better lightsaber combat than these ones.
Allowing for the fact that Outcast was the better of the two latest Jedi Knight games in terms of story and level design, do you guys think Jedi Academy wins out in terms of lightsaber and force combat (multiplayer or otherwise), simply on account of the larger range of moves and powers at your disposal?
When compared to the previous games, I'm prepared to agree with you, but I wouldn't say the guns 'sucked' outright.
Owen Green
I didn't play JA as much as Outcast but I felt the perfect balance that existed in Outcast was gone although the new stuff was certainly a lot of fun. It's mostly an issue in multiplayer though, in singleplayer it was only an improvement.
Jack Carter
Improvement in that regard that is, the level design and story was pretty bad.
David Jenkins
I'd almost completely forgotten about this fact, but in Jedi Academy (and possibly Outcast; I don't know for certain), you can use cheats to give yourself Mind Trick level four, which allows you to possess enemies and control them directly (although it does mean that you yourself are left standing around unresponsive like a fucking idiot, so it's useless unless you can find a spot where you won't be a target, but you still have initial line-of-sight on the enemy in question).
There might be other hidden force powers, but if there are, I'm not aware of them.
Adam Perry
I know your underage OP but every Jedi Knight game was ported to consoles.
Benjamin Myers
Star Wars is dead. Enjoy the new Disney Jedi princess.
Carter Garcia
fuck, maybe later.
Christopher Bennett
Show me the console ports of Dark Forces II and Mysteries of the Sith, you retarded fuck.
Thomas Johnson
It's time to leave in shame, faggot.
Alexander Williams
In my post I was implying that even if they just want a star wars tribute it doesn't really matter cause they dont get a choice in that when the dmcas and cease and desists start arriving. Then I the purpose is stupid since fan games are apparently not safe under parody/fanwork/fair use laws. People do not want more star wars we some one to clone starwars and make it better and blow the cancer that is modern star wars out of the water and bleed their wallets, showing them the mistake they made.

Michael Price
What user, you don't wanna play a game where you're a resistance agent who's also a jedi striking out against the Dark Lord Snoke
Julian Martinez
People are getting back at Dark Forces and such. It is a good thing. Those games are better than any of the movies.
Jaxon Morgan
Garbage already does that. Fuck off with this bullshit and make games with actual features instead of yet another template multiplatform turd.
Jayden Rogers
Of course not, since you need actual gameplay and working levels instead of random shitty 3d levels with some models.
Cooper Ortiz

I am Colonel Tobin and the rebooted Star Wars IP is the Ravager
Adam Nelson
See? 'to', not 'from'.
Camden Young
what if everything werent owned by a few huge corporations?
Blake Rogers
Just tested it:
Runs at 35+ fps on my GTX 560 1 GB toaster Still looks gorgeous at the lowest settings.
It's impressive what is possible once you leave out nVidia Gimpworks and PS4 devkit.
Anthony Foster
If you don't have a hardware implementation of something, it has to be rendered as software, and even the strongest GPU isn't as strong as a weaker GPU which has hardware acceleration of something.
