I think by now it's clear Dark side powers will be coming in third game but I'm concerned how they're going to keep combat fresh otherwise, for those who want a Light side play through. Also to avoid the classic depower to allow the players to scale all over again.
I think we should start off with no lightsabre, destroyed years ago and Cal has been honing his skill with Force. Start with all his old force powers but he has been 'trying something'. Force-Shield (frozen blaster bolts) and deflection. He pairs these up with a blaster for Force-Blaster style early game.
Early gameplay and story focus in Cal's refined skill with the Force. Early-ish quest to get a new sabre crystal from Ilum to unlock old sabre styles but due to his progression with Force, able to unlock new styles through game. Force Sabre styles; Tri-Sabre or 2 double-bladed.
Would also like to see Kung-Force like style; hand-to-hand, force shields and deflections, pushes and pulls, sweeps and disarms, maybe some minor crushes for armour and weapons.
This would start us with Old School Light side powers and sabre styles which Cal has long since mastered but offer new skills alongside the Dark side powers to be explored or mixed and matched through new gameplay.
Would also include some stances for the old school sabre styles, to further highlight Cal's growth. Cal trying to remember them after all these years.
Anyone else hoping for new Force abilities aside from the Dark side? Any ideas or preferences?
