    This is such a pale shadow of the older Lucasarts Jedi games, Jedi Knight II, Jedi Outcast.. This feels on rails and repetitive, despite the production values.

    Fallen Order: When being a Jedi feels worse than a stormtrooper.

    Prepare for a galactic disappointment with Fallen Order, a game that leaves you questioning if you've truly mastered the Force or just mastered the art of sighing heavily. Picture this: stormtroopers, notorious for their inability to hit the broad side of a Bantha, somehow manage to survive not one, not two, but a    Fallen Order: When being a Jedi feels worse than a stormtrooper.

    Prepare for a galactic disappointment with Fallen Order, a game that leaves you questioning if you've truly mastered the Force or just mastered the art of sighing heavily. Picture this: stormtroopers, notorious for their inability to hit the broad side of a Bantha, somehow manage to survive not one, not two, but a mind-numbing three to four lightsaber strikes. It's as if they found an armor upgrade at the discount space station. Someone call a Wookiee because this logic needs some serious fixing!

    But that's not the only thing that'll leave you scratching your head faster than R2-D2 in a sandstorm. No, no, my friends. In Fallen Order, you can't simply run through a level like a Jedi on a mission. Oh, no! You're forced to explore every nook and cranny, as if the next step forward could be hiding behind a space slug. It's a game of hide-and-seek, and you're stuck being the seeker.

    And let's talk about jumping, shall we? Apparently, Jedi leap distances are about as impressive as a Jawa's vertical jump. You'll find yourself tiptoeing on the edge of ledges, praying you'll make it to the other side. It's like they forgot to equip Jedi with space boots that actually allow for decent jumps. Who needs smooth and effortless when you can have heart-pounding and edge-of-your-seat, am I right?

    Now, here's where the real comedy kicks in. Picture this: you, a Jedi, capable of slowing down humans in their tracks like a Jedi traffic cop. But when it comes to monsters, well, let's just say they're immune to the Force. It's like the game creators believed that giant, menacing beasts have some kind of anti-Jedi shield, while conveniently forgetting to distribute the memo to the human villains. Nice going, guys. I'm sure the monster-sized brains came up with that brilliant concept.

    And hold on to your blasters because we're just getting started! All the levels are chock-full of tantalizing places you can't access right away. Oh, the anticipation! You'll have to revisit those areas once you've gained some Jedi abilities to upgrade your character's health and force. It's like waiting in line for your favorite intergalactic theme park ride, but instead of thrills and chills, you're rewarded with an upgrade to your character's life bar. Oh, the excitement! Or lack thereof.

    Now, let's chat about upgrades, shall we? Prepare for disappointment, my fellow Jedi wannabes. About 99% of the upgrades you'll encounter are as useful as a thermal detonator in a pillow fight. It's a parade of meaningless cosmetic changes that'll have you questioning if Jedi knights were secretly fashionistas. I mean, really, did Obi-Wan Kenobi ever lose sleep over his wardrobe choices or pondered a new shade of lightsaber color? I think not.

    But wait, there's more! The fights, my friends, are as underwhelming as Jar Jar Binks trying to tell a joke. The lackluster upgrades and battles make you wonder if you accidentally picked up a plastic lightsaber toy instead of the real deal. Sorry, Jedi, but you'll have to look elsewhere for that authentic lightsaber-wielding thrill. Fallen Order seems to have misplaced it among the stars.

    And speaking of misplaced, how on Tatooine did this game manage to earn such high ratings?

    But the main plot? Well, let's just say it's like navigating an asteroid field blindfolded. We're chasing the footsteps of a late Jedi researcher who apparently had a penchant for leaving cryptic clues like a Hutt leaving a trail of crumbs to his secret stash of snacks. It's a plot twist that leaves you with more questions than a protocol droid at a trivia night.

    In a galaxy far, far away, one would expect a Jedi adventure to be filled with awe-inspiring moments, epic battles, and a sense of mastery over the Force. Yet, Fallen Order manages to deliver an experience that feels more like being stuck in hyperspace traffic than embarking on a legendary quest.

    So, how did this game manage to achieve such lofty ratings? It's a mystery that even Yoda would struggle to decipher. Perhaps the Force is playing some cosmic prank on us, or maybe there's a secret Sith conspiracy at play. Whatever the case may be, Fallen Order's high acclaim remains as baffling as a Gungan trying to pronounce "lightsaber."

    In conclusion, brace yourself for a lackluster Jedi journey with Fallen Order. It's a game that will have you questioning the logic of lightsaber strikes, exploring every inch of the galaxy, tiptoeing on ledges, and facing off against monsters that are somehow immune to Jedi powers. With underwhelming upgrades, lackluster battles, and a plot that feels more convoluted than navigating an asteroid field, it's no wonder this game falls short of capturing the true essence of being a Jedi. May the Force be with you, because you'll need all the help you can get to find enjoyment in this galaxy far from greatness.    … Expand

    From the start the game shows you "strong and independent" tehcnical workers (that talk a lot just in case you didn't notice them). It also has female characters in key leandership positions. They are all strong, intelligent, etc. While guys are goofballs. Also all the normal enemies that you kill by the ton are guys. Guess equality ends there.

    All in all: Its above average. It uses alot of modern game tropes like metroidvania semi-open world and progression, no health regen, bonfires(i dont know how else to call these), and a more or less fleshed out combat system. The thing is that Fallen Order does none of these to the fullest. And its actually very annoying at times, when for example, you can only wallrun on specific walls,All in all: Its above average.

You think you could just free fall and double jump into a shortcut? No can do. The game pulls away the rug under your feet, everytime you just attempt to think outside the box. On PC, the game has some input lag. Atleast maybe its because i played with the mouse rather than controller.

We are waiting for good CGI videos and several beautiful, but boring levels where we have to look for chests and solve puzzles. Hello Zelda.
    It seems that the levels are striking with variety, but this is not so, the path, albeit winding, is one. It gets boring very quickly as if you are swarming in the baby playground.

    Sword! The sword has cool on/off sounds, it glows beautifully. It can be customized, but why? In the heat of the battle, there is no time to look at it. Fighting with swords is very simplified, there are big questions to the sword itself. Sword damage is not thought out. On some surfaces, no marks remain, and in passive mode, it simply passes through surfaces without leaving any marks. If that's still forgivable in LEGO Star Wars. But in a game like this? And this is a super Jedi weapon?
    I do not believe it. Rather a Toy from Amazon.

    It's weird that the developers took the time to draw dozens of costumes for the protagonist, but they were not enough for the variety of levels and the mechanics of the lightsaber.    … Expand

    I made an account just for this game.

    In short, this game is garbage. I run a RTX3070 and yet it manages to stutter all the time, moreso than Cyberpunk if that was even possible. It's a complete buggy mess with gamebreaking bugs that force you to restart your whole game, even a year later with "patches". Don't buy this game, there are multiple other games to spend your money on.

    In general the game is a platform genre game, where you have times where you have to look around the map to see how do you have to get to the next area, but nothing difficult in general, but a few puzzles takes some time to resolve.
    There are also lots of fights, that are well executed. The "normal" fights against a vast variety of stormptroopers and creatures are difficult enough to make them entertraining. You have also abilities you learn through out the game by a level buying system (idk how its called). The boss fights will take your time. They are hard and you will have to learn through a lot of tries how to beat your enemy. Patience is your friend.

    The levels/planets takes their time to be completed, and at all moments you feel like you are really in a Star Wars adventure movie. They made an excellent ambientation, and the levels are well designed in my opinion. All of them are quiet unique. Graphically, this game is beautiful.

    Levels are poorly designed and have no logical sense to them. Am I supposed to believe in this world? it's not a living breathing SW universe. it's a bunch of standalone levels with some platforming , puzzles and combat.

    Story. Lazy writing right from the start. silly characters with silly dialog and no depth. it's filled with excuses.

    There's a lot to discover via the in-game wiki thing which is more laziness. instead of actually having content in the game you read about most of it.

    They have tried to take what they think makes Souls-like games great, combine it with a loot, puzzles and that SW magic and hoped it would make a great game. it didn't.

    I could forgive the obviously bad level design, that makes no sense if this was an actual universe, if the story was brilliant but nothing in this game is exceptional.
