One little detail I love is around the lucrehulk segment, when we later find out was when Bode was really starting to see Cal as a friend. When playing through that segment he mentions "I Broke into a freighter on Denab once....It was nothing like a Lucrehulk; not sure why I even mentioned it..."

Which when playing felt like such an odd line to include because like, is the writer making fun of themselves? But I feel like it's his actual life bleeding into the persona/history he was portraying for Cal as part of his cover and that is why it caught Bode off guard why he even bothered to mention it. Such attention to little details that only becomes recognizable once you reach the end. So cool.

I never would've pictured him as the final boss of this game, but when you think about Trilla, it makes sense. They were both once good people who were backed into a corner by the Empire, and forced to do terrible things. Once again, Cal was forced to fight not the heart of the Empire, but something that the Empire created.

This actually cleared up one personal issue I had with Bode and I see now it's something I just missed while watching a walkthrough of the game; his red lightsaber was half of Dagon's. When he wielded a red blade I was trying to figure out why he would actually bleed his crystal since he wasn't what I'd consider a dark Jedi or anything like that. Thanks!

Bode was a unique and intriguing character that provided a fresh experience for the game.
It’ll be interesting to see if he pops up in more stories moving forward, given the game takes place right in the middle of ROTS and ANH.

I feel for Bode as this was all for Kata but he ultimately let his choices blind him. That and he almost killed Kata 3 times during the fight snd hit BD. Ultimately im still sad that he is gone but I find peace because Cal had no choice but to kill him as he was never gonna stop.

I really like Bode’s fighting style. We rarely meet a Force-wielding character who uses a lightsaber, a blaster pistol, and explosives in remarkable fashion. Even though Cal was emotionally conflicted when they fought on Jedha, Bode’s victory over him is no small feat.

I wasn’t a big fan of Bode until i learned about these Force echoes. Now I really like the character and wouldn’t mind maybe a short spin-off about how he survived order 66

The added force echos post-endgame were a really cool touch by the devs

If anyone thinks his voice sounds familiar, his voice actor (Noshir Dalal) voiced admiral rampart from TBB as well as Charles from RDR2

Something I love thematically in Star Wars is how darksiders and people who succumb to the dark side always end up doing the same things to others that hurt them. Anakin was a slave who was oppressed and with his fault of the dark side, he ended up supporting a system of slavery and oppression. I love that sort of theming.

Akuna Matata, what a wonderful phrase

This is why I would love either bode comics or an entire novel. He is such a fascinating character. Because we’ve never had a Joel Miller/Rick Grimes type character in Star Wars. Characters that only care about protecting there family no matter the cost. So I would love to see how his story unfolded from order 66 to right before he infiltrates the Partisans.

“BODE! zanny, while pursuing bode on jedha

The shot of Bode's Jedi revelation makes me wish that Cal's blaster stance had him use reverse grip for his lightsaber...

[JohanMsWorld]

I found an interesting force echo in the cantina after completing the game that made me even sader on Bodes part. I had hopes that he might feel revenge and can be redemed later but not so much.

I really wanted a happy ending with Bode alive and being forgiven at the end. I really did. But it is what it is, and I'm happy to have participated in the journey so far. I'm looking forward to the possible final game featuring Cal Kestis and the gang. And I hope to see a teenage or older version of Kata in the next game. If she doesn't die, maybe she'll appear in live-action in future Star Wars TV shows and movies. On a side note, only 35.7% of people on Steam have completed the whole story line of Jedi Survivor.

[KrimsonWing]

This game has gotten me so worried Kata. I’m so torn up about what happened to her. And I’m very concerned about her mental state, having to live with the person who took her dad away from her. She understood perfectly that her dad was in the wrong but that’s still her father. I’m even more eager now about the story in the next game. Overall I think the steaks were higher in the first game but I feel like a story, and Jedi survivor was a little more intimate, despite the grander scale setting wise.

[illyth]

I was worried about Bode from the beginning. His name is literally ominous.
Also, no mention of his murder of Cordova?!

[CraitMerc]

It's so funny to be that FREAKING BOBA FETT, someone who's father was taken from him by a Jedi, was a better friend to Cal than Bode.
