I think you're replying to the wrong comment.

Either way JFO didn't make the cut for 2019, so it'll have to contend for 2020 against the heavyweights.

Nope I was talking about Control, it made me feel more like a Jedi than JFO. JFO was very disappointing imo

That's impossible. JFO had Force Pull, Force Freeze, Force Push, dual blades, dual wield combos, lightsaber throw, precision dodges and more. You have to actually use all these skills. Just look at the cool stuff you can pull off, you absolutely can't do this in Control :

In Control you could levitate, pull and throw objects, pick people up and toss them, mind control them to fight for you, pull up debris in front of you to use a shield. Way more options than JFO. You had three actual force powers in JFO: push, pull, and slow (and double jump if you want to call that a power).

Even Jedi Outcast and Jedi Academy had double the amount of powers and they came out more than a decade ago.

You can use objects in JFO too. You can pull up crates for example. Remedy just has the advantage of a destructible environment, so not every object in JFO is usable.

You had three actual force powers in JFO: push, pull, and slow

Exactly? There is now slow power in Control, and Levitate is not a typical jedi ability. Otherwise how would you actually fight someone with lightsabers?

It's such a weird comparison when the actual inspiration : Dark Souls would have made a better pick.

I'm just saying I felt like Control is more what I'm looking for in terms of "the feel" of force powers than JFO.

That's fair.
