Jedi Fallen Order: 10 Star Wars Games EA MUST Make Next

2. Finn's Backstory

When he first appeared on our screens, FN-2187 - better known as Finn - was an intriguing new addition to the Star Wars universe.

A Stormtrooper with free will, Finn deserts his masters and joins The Resistance. He is now one of the main three characters of the new trilogy. Admittedly, he's the one that people care about the least, but it still counts.

Despite being given a rough time on-screen, Finn still has a lot of potential as a character. However, rather than looking ahead with his arc, what about if we looked back?

A game where players controlled Finn during his Stormtrooper days could present a number of interesting story options.

A conscious mechanic could drive the game's plot. If the meter tips too far to the side of good, then Finn gets taken away by the First Order. If it tips to the side of evil, then Finn snaps and becomes a fully-fledged stormtrooper.

Intriguing gameplay, a good story, and a chance to connect with a severely underutilised character are all reasons why this game should be developed right away and, more importantly, why EA should hire me for their creative team.

Worth a shot, right?
