Star Wars Jedi: Survivor: Second Mission to the Shattered Moon
What is it ? : Having overheard Dagan Gera send the Gendai leader of the Bedlam Raiders to the Shattered Moon to retrieve a compass to Tanalorr, Cal follows.
He explores further parts of the station on the moon, finding the laboratories where Cal has a vision of Dagan Gera losing his arm to his Jedi friend, Santari Khri, who believed he had taken a dark path, but summons a droid to take him to a bacta tank afterwards.
Cal reaches the control tower where he confronts the Gendai, Rayvis. He tries to recruit him, defeating him in combat. But Rayvis wants a warriors death like the one denied him by Dagan, and Cal kills him in combat.
On the way back, Cal confesses to Merrin that he thinks he is following the same path as Dagan, falling from the Jedi Code, but Merrin assures him that his friends won't let that happen. But back at Koboh, Merrin remains at the outpost to ensure the Bedlam Raiders don't attack and get revenge on the innocent people there.
High Points : Cal getting to speak and try to recruit Rayvis is a solid moment, instead of just hacking at an opponent unti, they're dead we get them fleshed out somewhat. Their warrior code put them into service of Dagan Gera, but when offered the chance again, they'd rather put an end to their own life than keep being the puppet of a Jedi. And we get further visions of Dagan Gera himself, discovering how he lost his arm and ended up in the stasis tank we originally discovered him in, we're getting towards the end of his story so all the gaps are being filled in and it's quite compelling.
Low Points : Cal suddenly doubting himself, wondering if he's falling to the Dark Side for the same reasons as Dagan Gera doesn't really hold water. Dagan totally over-reacted to the situation where this world he wanted to protect fell to the Nihil, unwilling to see the rest of the galaxy needed protected as well, especially more populated worlds. And Cal is trying to save some Jedi from being hunted and exterminated by the Imperial Inquisitors. It's not the same, Cal's only fault might be that he wants to hide during the Imperial Era rather than help the struggle against it. Although the Rebel Alliance really isn't a thing yet, so he doesn't really know of any unified resistance he could join.
So what do you really think ? : Another good level, there are some frustrating sections, where it's really not obvious where you should go next, and I ended up running up and down the same couple of corridors looking for a platform to jump on, or ooze to blast away. And there a couple of sections where timing is ridiculously tight, so I got killed and replayed and got killed and replayed a dozen or so times to get through, but that could just be me.
Final Words : So we're getting towards the end of the game, but there's the twist to come, so it's not as obvious as we think.

I don't remember Merrin getting revenge on the Bedlam Raiders.

She doesn't, I perhaps phrased it weirdly, she remains to protect the settlement from the Bedlam Raiders who are disorganised after the death of Rayvis.
Or for storyline reasons so she is not really present for the next couple of levels for the shocking and unexpected twist.
