I came back to Cal Kestis journey with some slight trepidation, I enjoyed the previous game but felt it dragged in a couple places and frustrated me in others. I'm happy to say I'm very glad I decided to re-join the Mantis crew, this is a thoroughly enjoyable game, movement feels fluid and extremely satisfying, combat is sufficiently difficult while still making you feel like you really are crossing sabers with formidable foes, and the story and characters are incredibly well written, this outpaces Episode IX's clumsy pacing by a huge margin. Highly recommended to those who played through Cal's previous outing, fans of Star Wars and anyone who knows just how damn good Respawn are at designing levels that are a joy to traverse.
