add "skip" option for platforming on story mode

On the lowest difficult, perhaps make some of the platforming easier, or maybe add a skip option?

I'm old, and my reflexes (and thumbs) are not what they used to be.  There have been several platforming points that I passed but I wish I would never see again:  One, on Kashyyk had about 5 wall-running spots that require a double-jump between each one.  The Order 66 "reach my position" platforming was likewise very hard for me.  I've seen videos of plenty of people who make it on their first try, but it took me awhile for each one.  There was one other, but I can no longer remember it.

Anyway, I just think a skip option on the lowest difficulty would be nice.

  • with story mode enabled, I could see wall-running being the hardest part of the game, and lowering the difficulty doesn't make it any easier. There's a spot on Bogano (towards the end of the game) that I have spent a good amount failing at! I also spent about 30 mins in the tomb of miktrull rappelling from one climber vine to another to another, only to keep failing the last jump and falling. Failing at boss-fights is still challenging and entertaining. Failing at e-parkour is really NOT. Suggestion: Perhaps after like 8 falls, a skip option could be presented in the easier modes.

    I met a guy in a game store when I first got into gaming that only played adventure games. He said when they started adding things like falling to your death while platforming many adventure gamers complained about it.

    The thing is though, you have to realize this is not just a mere adventure game you're playing here. I realize "Story mode" may very well be misleading to some, but I think they made it clear it's main distinction is that the combat is very easy.

    In any Action Adventure game with lots of exploring, it's common that you'll face perilous platforming at times, especially one as actiony as a Star Wars Jedi title.
