Maybe you have wondered, what if the good guys were even worse at aiming than the bad guys? That's this game on the Switch. Those who call Fallen Order the Dark Souls of Star Wars games haven't played Jedi Outcast on the Switch.
I originally played the game on PC where it's really good and makes a ton of sense but my god, pixel perfect shooting is excruciating with joysticks, making the game almost Miyazaki-spicy at times. When a door opens with seven stormtroopers on the other side my immediate and genuine reaction is "oh fuck," as I start running backwards through the level blasting in the direction of evil, reminiscent of the gang being chased through the Death Star in A New Hope.
This experience – though not intended by the original developers – turns out kind of interesting in a different (and deeply masochistic) way. But if you haven't played it before, I recommend a keyboard and a mouse for the sake of your sanity. And holy shit, the rats! So many tiny space rats with tiny hitboxes.
