Star Wars Jedi: Survivor was easily better than its predecessor, Fallen order.
That being said, it was by no means a perfect game.
That opening third dragged on an awful lot before things really kicked into gear.
If there’s one thing I’d like to see from the franchise’s third and final instalment, it would be an improvement to pacing.

Thankfully, that final instalment is confirmed to be on the way.
During a recent EA Investor’s Call, the company’s president of entertainment and technology Laura Miele said, “Respawn is working hard to bring the final chapter of this thrilling story to players.”
Beyond that, it appears that Cal Kestis may make the hop into the live-action world, as many of us assumed he would.
This tidbit was revealed by Daniel Richtman, also known as RPK, who added that the appearance would likely be as part of a Disney+ series.
Whether this is a Cal-centric series, or whether he would appear in a cameo role, we don’t know.
ICYMI: We sat down with the cast of The Acolyte earlier this year.
Whenever Cal does make his Star Wars live-action debut, picking his actor is a no brainer decision.
Cameron Monaghan doesn’t just bring Cal to life in the video game series via his voice and motion capture, he leant his likeness too.
Cameron is Cal so if they don’t cast him, I’m going to have some questions.
The actor confirmed that he’s certainly interested in the prospect.
“It would have to be right ... it has to continue the story or the character in some way. I don't want him to just kind of show up to stand around and be there,” he previously said, via The Direct.
It’s what fans want after all.
“They definitely knew to get an actor for mo-cap that could also do live-action very well. I think it’s just a matter of time until we see Cal live. I hope it’s soon but also hope it’s done in the right way,” wrote iceoldtea.
“Been waiting for this,” added burtpark76, while Felgrand3189 said, “I genuinely adore how much Cameron loves Cal and his story.”
For now, we’ll have to remain patient but Cal’s live-action debut certainly feels like a case of when, and not if.
