Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Dev Created This Enemy Only to Annoy Players
In Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, players face a wide range of opponents. Among them is one seemingly inconspicuous type of enamy that gets under the skin of many. Interestingly, this was the developers' intention.
Like in Fallen Order, the creators of Jedi: Survivor have introduced into the game varied enemies that Cal Kestis faces during his travels. In addition to the well-known threats from imperial forces and aggressive fauna, on which we can test our lightsaber skills, there is a certain type of opponents, designed to piss off the players.
Cal Kestis' arch-enemy
It turns out that at the very top of the hierarchy of opponents are the most cunning and elusive... droid scavengers inhabiting the planet Koboh.
Interestingly, the so-called scavengers pose no threat to Cal. In fact, as soon as they see our hero - they run away. And that's the whole problem, because they carry rare treasures that are worth acquiring. In addition to being remarkably fast, the droids are capable of burrowing into the ground as soon as we try to use Force pull on them.
In connection with the problems caused by catching the robots, there have been a lot of threads on the web, in which players pour out their frustration at the annoying tin cans. The whole thing made enough waves to reach the designer of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor - Mitchell F. Wolfe.
This is how it was supposed to be
The creator admitted on Twitter that these droids were created only to cause frustration. The fact that they are doing a great job in their role is great news for the developers.
Considering the aforementioned droids and technical issues with the game, one has to admit that the developers at Respawn Entertainment sure know how to annoy players.
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor made its debut on April 28 on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S.
