1. I thought the Meditation circles were plentiful. That said, save wise, if you're unlucky enough to get a save corrupted, which thankfully never happened to me in 3 play throughs, you have no choice but to restart the game. Being able to have an auto save in addition to the Med Circle saves, like every time you land on a planet, would have helped avoid this.
2. My only nit pick about the map system is the holomap often doesn't clearly show how to connect from one area to another. Other than that, I saw no need to clutter the screen with a minimap or other HUD elements.
3. While it DOES take a fair bit of exploring to get to know the maps, they are plentiful with quick access routes, especially when you unlock the many shortcuts. I also feel the forced exploration fits with you playing a Padawan on the run.
4. As with the exploration, I think having some trepidation in the platforming is essential to reinforcing the character you play as. I also feel once you get the hang of it, the wall running is easy, even the one on the Origin Tree where you're forced to do several wall run/double jump combos. I am also 62, and don't feel it's so hard that it requires the reflexes and dexterity of a teenage. That would be fighter games and any games that have a lot of boss fights that require quick combo attacks instead.
