I would have thought that the whole point of playing Darth Vader first was so you could experience the awesome power of the dark side. Thereafter the game would give you some limp numpty you could eventually build up to the same level of destructive power. That is how any decent games designer would have handled this I’m sure.


No, a decent designer would have had you playing the whole goddamn game as Darth Vader instead of making you EARN your way to being able to play the full game. Seriously, after DMC4 I am fucking sick of action games forcing the player to accumulate experience points. Enough of your half-assed limp wristed attempts to sneak in a scoring system under our noses! Either have one or leave it out.

Actually, the real reason I think leveling up and experience points have become so out-of-control in recent years is to give console players a reason to buy the game instead of just renting it. Which makes such features a zillion times more obnoxious in computer games.
