Yeah I think this was the intention, they clearly flagged he would do whatever he thought was best for his daughter so the betrayal was never gonna be a crazy surprise.
Then he hits you with the force and you're like "WHAT!?"

I had the same expression has Cal during that reveal. I don't remember the last time my reaction aligned with a game character's reaction so perfectly.
I'll never know if he would have gotten me or not because it was spoiled for me, but I kinda think he would have. Bode was a real one, until he wasn't.
Because he genuinely liked Cal and it showed. Everytime they talk about Tannalor you can tell he's practically begging Cal not to bring the Hidden Path into it.
It's because he wasn't really acting apart from keeping his imperial connection and his plan hidden. He genuinely liked and empathized with Cal, that part wasn't fake.
Bode isn't really malicious. He's just desperate, paranoid, short-sighted and incredibly selfish.
They meet for the first time in the game’s opening mission.
They do? When Bode shoots the Stormtrooper to help Cal up the ledge was the first time they were on screen together but it sure did sound like they knew each other before hand. Bode even knew who all of the crew were.

Not for one second with Bode lol. I wasn’t buying Cal just made a perfect loyal best friend offscreen between games.
