  3. Overview • Action-adventure game • Ronin Engine (combination of Havok, Digital Molecular Matter by Pixelux Entertainment, and Euphoria by NaturalMotion • Pros: innovative storyline, numerous customizations, all Force powers usable, good graphics • Cons: incredibly short story, poor in-game camera

  4. Story • Takes place between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope • Vader kills a Jedi on Kashyyyk and takes on his son and raises him as his apprentice. He is given the name Starkiller and sent around the galaxy to kill the remaining Jedi as training for the ultimate goal: assassinating the Emperor so Vader and Starkiller can rule the galaxy together.

  5. Story • Begins as villain’s journey but then switches to hero’s journey near the end • Storyline has numerous cut scenes that aid the story • However, story once again is quite short • A gamer who flies through the game could complete it in a rental period • Emotional attachment is almost there, but only occurs at the end

  6. End of Story • Decision between good and evil • Seek revenge on Vader • Become a Sith Stalker and kill more Jedi for the Emperor • Save Kota from Emperor Palpatine • If you pick the Sith route, there is DLC to download to complete the story
