One of many components I actually favored right here was that in case you ought to ever lose your means, you’ll be able to all the time ask the cute, armadillo-like Nix. Past being cute as heck, Nix’s energy permits enemies and targets to be quickly highlighted, serving to you discover your means via a stage or sneak previous enemies. Regardless of my greatest efforts, nonetheless, I used to be all the time shortly detected which might then kick off a firefight.
Fight feels strong, between throwing a punch and blasting enemies, all the pieces feels fluid and responsive. Kay’s distinctive blaster options three modes: Plasma (deadly), Ion (droids), and Stun (non-lethal). She additionally has a focus-like capacity that slows down time and allows you to mark a handful of enemies, letting her rattle off a sequence of photographs as time returns to regular.
She will additionally decide up any weapon that falls to the bottom from defeated foes to make use of towards them, however gained’t retain it in her stock, dropping it as soon as it has served its goal. I like the choice right here as a result of it grounds the sport a bit in Star Wars’ actuality – there’s no magic backpack that permits you to stockpile a wide range of weapons. So, anticipate to lean in on Kay’s blaster for many of those firefights.
