• Star Wars Battlefront 2
• Campaign – Disappointment, the character’s change personality and character
within a blink of an eye; somehow. I don’t understand how this happens: iden virsio
(spoiler) becomes a rebel from being a commander of her elite squad named inferno
siding with the Empire, she does this because she is tasked with a decision, she
would obviously pick the hero choice, you know, because the villain always has to
become the hero. She does this within about 20 minutes of a game with a 5-hour
story, if that! When she does this the world is being attacked and it’s her home
world being destroyed, she walks past all the innocent civilians dying and doesn’t bat
an eye, she just watches them die. As soon as she gets through some door which
clearly has magical powers, given she decides to change character and save a few
people that are going to be killed, no real reason for this other than EA needed a
story mode for more money. The story doesn't create something new, instead it
relies on its films as for the majority you play as different characters apart from the
“main character” in the story. You will play as: Lando Calrisian, Han solo, princess
leia, Luke Skywalker and Kylo Ren. Although this is fun and a nice touch it fails,
mainly due to how short the story of iden virsio is. She is not in the story enough
time to pull this off. No. sorry she is in the story enough; her story is that bad and
doesn’t contain anything with meaning to her backstory. What is there in her story,
you don’t really care about, mainly as there is not enough character development to
make her an interesting character. A man on her squad called Hask turns against her
and chooses the Empire after praising Iden Virsio repeatedly moments before, there
is only a simplistic, one word, explanation for How I feel about this; disappointment.
It follows the generic narrative, making the villain turn good at the end and although
this can work as narrative, the fact that it happens so quickly and is poorly executed
it’s Just sad to watch at this point. At the end of the story near the last mission you
meet Hask again after he betrayed you, it’s been a while but you don’t know as you
played as other characters for the majority of what you would call EAs gaming
experience. You shoot down Hasks ship with no effort providing the idea that he is a
irrelevant character, however he manages to come back to life at the end of the
game managing to survive the crash. I’m now going to change topic, a bit like they all
change characters its out of the blue. They don’t build on the empires story after
return of the Jedi, one minute they still have the power to destroy worlds and the
next lose everything they have when they randomly decide to go to jakuu with no
explanation to have a final battle simply because the rushed story needs a rushed
ending. At this point the rebellion is treating the entire thing like it doesn't matter.
At the end of the game she makes her way to the bridge of her father’s ship (oh yeah
her dad is in charge of the empire now, forgot to mention that, a bit like the game.)
as she gets to the bridge with him he (after disowning her as a daughter trying to kill
her on multiple occasions and wanting her dead) miraculously changes his mind, he
tells her to save herself while she (after wanting to kill him for what he did to her)
went up there to save him and pull him off the ship, Instead of killing him he tells her
to run and save herself while he goes down with his ship, because he now for some
reason thinks what he did was wrong, with no real explanation as to why. The
character who did get more development then the main character was called del, he
was another member of inferno squad who decided to do the right thing however
when he does the right thing it, makes sense as the best told story in the game was
