In fact, one of the themes of this game and its sequel Jedi Academy is that no power is inherently good or evil it's how it's used that makes it so. Bad Powers, Good People: Kyle uses Force Grip and Force Lightning.Back-to-Back Badasses: Kyle and Luke do it late in the game.The supposedly defensive Fast lightsaber style, which was fixed for the sequel so that it allows you to spin around trading really fast blows with a lightsaber-wielding enemy, here only makes you take hits all the time if you try to do the same thing.Many of the more flashy acrobatic moves, despite looking rather cool, aren't actually all that useful.
Artificial Stupidity: The stormtroopers are pretty stupid in general, and Dark Jedi will occasionally gleefully jump into a Bottomless Pit to dodge lightsaber attacks.Apparently, the oft-maligned book's only fan was a member of the writing team. Arc Welding: Bizarrely, the "Empire Reborn" in this game is the very same Imperial Remnant faction as the one led by Lord Hethrir in The Crystal Star.An Arm and a Leg: Even without making use of cheats to enable full dismemberment, the game occasionally allows you to take off a hand or an arm.Always Over the Shoulder: Once you get your lightsaber, the singleplayer defaults to this, while the multiplayer doesn't even allow the player in first-person mode while using the lightsaber.If you're feeling merciful (or a little guilty), you can disarm the troopers by force choking them, grabbing their weapons, and leaving them to run around harmlessly (they may even raise their hands in surrender if you get close enough). And then you come in with your fancy lightsaber, and it's pretty easy to feel sorry for them as they get cut down left and right (Their screams of complete and utter terror as they get cut down, or hurled off a high ledge certainly doesn't help). In other words, ordinary guys just passing the time. It's not uncommon, when sneaking around, to hear them chatting with one another about various things, such as how hard it is to see out of their helmets, griping about higher ranking officers berating them, or even chatting about their new T-16's. Alas, Poor Villain: Stormtroopers have a pretty poor reputation to begin with ( terrible aim, being defeated by walking teddy bears, etc.) but it's surprisingly easy to feel sorry for them.
