Star Wars Actor Sam Witwer Says A Darth Maul Game Could Be Something Special

Star Wars Actor Sam Witwer Says A Darth Maul Game Could Be Something Special https://ift.tt/LNgtHQJ With a new spin-off animated series coming out this month, Maul is back in the Star Wars spotlight. Since his first appearance in 1999's Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace, the former Dark Lord of the Sith has become one of the series' most popular characters and has appeared in several video games over the years. Even though Maul has never starred in his own game, his current voice actor believes there is a chance to tell an "incredible" story if given the chance. In an interview with Discussing Film , actor Sam Witwer shared that he would love to see a Maul video game happen someday. "I've become convinced we could do an incredible story, yeah," Witwer said.

The game's intentions are clear right away: This isn't the sort of game where you'll need to worry about ammo reserves very often. This is a power fantasy, though not without plenty of tension, too.

As mentioned, at first I found this so difficult that I assumed I failed to account for something--a skill move, or a control option, or something. It turns out I just needed a little practice. Like a lot of VR shooters, you can do yourself huge favors by mastering the reload animation. Initially I fumbled around with that mechanic, which caused me to take more than a few bites to the jugular, but it didn't take long before I mowed through undead like a John Wick Halloween spin-off.
