I hope the staff isn't involved in too much of the gameplay, I get bored of gimmicks like that really quickly.
Of course, having some sort of 'mystical power' is lucasarts way of competing with themselves in that "The Force Unleashed" showcases their physics engines much more than a guy with a hat and no magical powers.
But, imo, I'll enjoy a meaty brawler/adventure much more where your opponents can actually hurt you, in contrast to having basically godlike powers and being able to throw a hundred guys by flicking your wrist, and then shoot lighting at them, then fly at them, and cut then in half with a lightsaber.
seems a little unfair to me lol
I still hope to Jebus that there is some actual puzzle solving in this game that require an IQ higher than that of your average goat
