Proof that there is no OSHA in the Star Wars universe

Post by Iceberg »

Just play fuggin' Jedi Knight II!

Holy living fuck, is Bespin dangerous!!! No handrails ANYWHERE, an outdoor walkway suspended over a thousand kilometers of NOTHING, DIRECTLY exposed to a high-velocity air vent, an elevator with absolutely NO safety systems whatsoever...

Jesus H. Christ, OSHA would have a fucking hissy fit over Bespin...

To get good frame rate, I stepped down the visual quality to "Fast" and then turned off most of the bells and whistles.

Bespin is nowhere near as dangerous as that night level on the streets of that gangster planet, if you ask me.

You gotta love the comm/sensors area of the Imperial battlecruiser though :D

Nar Shaada I can see being an insane jumping puzzle. But Bespin, no.

Okay, not that I don't agree with you, but this was a secret entrance and the walkway could just as easily have been a leftover from old construction jobs.
