Ughhhhhn at least THIS Battlefield title got it right: Star Wars Battlefront II: Starfighter Assault looks gorgeous, balanced, and super fun to fly in your favorite TIE Fighter or X-wing. TAKE A HINT, BATTLEFIELD 1, WE WANT AIR SUPERIORITY. Considered a mode, Starfighter Assault players can live out their ultimate Star Wars fantasies by becoming an ace pilot in epic space battles set across authentic locations from all three cinematic Star Wars eras. Space combat has been vastly improved and expanded with superior controls, deeper customization and role-based team play featuring an all new class-based system.

Yeah, Yoda pilots a weird-looking Old Republic TIE Figher-esque ship, it’s not canon, who gives a shit, I bet he wrecks mad kills and gives you the finger with his three-fingered hand and tells you to kiss off. AIR SUPERIORITY, BABY!
