    Not a bad game, but definitely not a 10, anyone that gives this a 10 has to work for the company, half your leg or your arm goes through the wall when you jump near it, you must wait for one animation to complete before changing your attack or blocking, one hit deaths and sometimes blocking you still die, this game needs a patch and quick, no wonder their was an review embargo.

    I was really hyped for this game and I am completely overwhelmed with how good it turned out. The story is good and the combat is great, I love the souls-like touch they introduced to it, it isn't a one to one replica of a souls game but similar. The Uncharted, God of War, Legend of Zelda, Metroid Prime, and Titanfall 2 like game play is also really neat.

The Uncharted, God of War, Legend of Zelda, Metroid Prime, and Titanfall 2 like game play is also really neat. Respawn has done an amazing job at incorporating all these great game mechanics into one solid Star Wars title, that being said the mechanics used are implemented well and do not feel like they are rip offs of these previously mentioned titles. The graphics are really good, not as good as Battlefront 2 though and there may be room for improvements maybe adding more atmospheric/environmental detail like more fog or something like that would be good. There are a few clipping bugs where clothes start clipping through the characters and some of the facial expressions are funnily weird but that's just nitpicking, the reason I only give it an 8 and not a 9 or 10 is because the game does not really add any new mechanics that have never been seen before, it has great mechanics but it just doesn't invent new ones. That being said it is probably one of the better Star Wars games if not the best as it brings the other gaming mechanics to the franchise and executes them perfectly. My score of 8 was also because I think they may have been able to improve on the graphics a bit too. EA has done well to not screw up this title but it does not forgive them for their past faults, this achievement is on the team at Respawn who have done a great job in creating this game. To end on a good note, the voice acting is pretty good, Cameron Monaghan's voice acting is definitely the stand out, he's done a great job and his voice and the way he says things really suits Cal's character, oh and BD-1 is cute.

    Took me over 15 hours the whole campaign on Jedi-Master. Here are my thoughts.

    Pro :
    - Graphics (they are good. Not Super but good enough to be in this section)
    - Free Cosmetics/Collectibles (which is not common for publisher like EA)
    - Story started interesting and i had some flashbacks when i enjoyed the star wars battlefront 2 campaign where you play the story of the 501st that had to go throgh a lot of stuff.
    - Castlevania Like was ok for this one
    - Single Player Game
    - No Microtransaction
    - You get the Deluxe Edition with Premier Access (around 15 bucks a month.)
    - Stunning panorama
    - A small amount of Characters are interesting
    - Characters Animation/Expression are good/ok in little scenes/sequences

    CONS :
    They are the reason why this game has only a 7/10 and is closer to a 6/10
    - Combat System is horrible on Jedi Master and upwards.
    - Extremely dumb A.I.. they stop chasing you after you run out of their "spawn location" and as soon as you enter a new set of the map.
    - You can simply run through the map without killing any troops because they "don't matter". If you want to speedrun the campaign. But nothing will wait for you after the campaign. Nothing.. Legit.. Nothing.
    - The Story itself is completely obsolete if you think about Star Wars IV. Nothing matter at the end because Luke Skywalker is going to smack the Empire anyway. Or have you ever heard of a Jedi called "Cal" ?
    - Camera problems.
    - Most Characters lack personality or have seen only Screen time because "reasons" (Merrin is just there. Cool Character but i have no clue why this character is there at the end. It looks unfinished to me.)
    - The After-Credit Scene is one of the MOST IMPORTANT THINGS in a Single player, and they didn't use this at all.
    - 60€ for a 10-15 hour campaign/ Singleplayer is overpriced at this rate of quality but its worth for 15€ Premier Access. I would pay 40-45€ for the Game itself.

    Star Wars Jedi: Fallen order is a ok to almost good Singleplayer Star Wars Game. Im extremely interested in the Story itself and wish they would have gotten more in depth about the transformation from Clone Troops to Stormtroopers.. Republic to Empire. The First third of the Game is awesome.. the second half is more of a "I need to learn that and it feels like a Sekiro had sex with Castlevania" but the end felt a bit rushed and stopped with an open end but i had not the feel of "I WANT MORE" it left me with a lot of confusion. Unfinished. I want them to continue this Singleplayer and improve certain things. The most important part to improve is the combat system.

    What can I say, I'm loving it so far. Playing on Jedi Master difficulty. Great game.

    Beautiful graphics. Great gameplay, rewarding. Great story.

    No encountered bugs. Runs good. Zero microtransactions.

    Warning - If you were hoping for the FPS of Dark Forces / Jedi Outcast, this isn't it. And if you wanted the RPG fun of Kotor, keep looking. To best sum up this games playstyle is that someone took the time to try and merge the playstyles of Dark Souls and Titanfall2... At first this sounds impressive, but it makes for a rush to wait combat style and at times, horrible pacing on enemies.Warning - If you were hoping for the FPS of Dark Forces / Jedi Outcast, this isn't it.

At first this sounds impressive, but it makes for a rush to wait combat style and at times, horrible pacing on enemies. You can see this with certain world boss fights. And in general, you may do a wall running like in Titanfall into a 1 hit enemy like Dark Souls. Different feel, but not really flushed out (evidenced by camera angles and force power effects). This is a port! This is clear when you as a PC player do things the controller junkies never tested and you get stuck in a wall or have to exit to main screen and reload. This isn't even mentioning the graphic issues when swimming (late stage), the very inconsistent frame rate.

    Cosmetics - Best lightsaber construction to date. However, this is overshadowed by the WORST character outfit to date... An abundance of PONCHOS?!?!?

    Dialogue - The voice actors aren't bad but the script is written very poorly and is boring

    Star Wars Feel - It feels good and gives you a perspective to the size of things.... Definitely a better addition than Solo but definitely not a Rogue One.

    Overall - This game is boring overall and honestly, the main objective is completely illogical. Had they gone just Titanfall2 style or Dark Souls with this I would have found it 10x better. The biggest compliant I have is that they knew they were short on environments and depth of game so they put requirement blocks on planets (example: Need force pull to get a bridge down) you to revisit the same planets over and over after getting new skills. And to further suck your time up, they didn't even use the Dark Souls firepit approach to allow you to fast travel beyond all the fonder so they force you into a time sink for no good reason but to go back and get that secret you couldn't get before...

The Story appears to be at least decent and has some interesting characters, but the game is pretty centered on gameplay, so the story doesn't really get the chance carry this game. The gameplay is an odd jumbled mess of platforming, clunky combat and a walking simulator.
    The platforming is at best serviceable, however it becomes really tedious due to the sluggish and unreliable controls, you can never be quite sure whether your next move will be successful or cause you to plummet to your death, which is rather weird, given how well the platforming worked in Respawn's other releases.
    The same can be said about the combat, it is somewhat sluggish and clunky, certainly not the fast paced combat I'd expect from a Jedi, however it can still be quite entertaining and isn't too bad overall, but it does start to feel like chore fairly quickly, and is not nearly as polished as for example Dark Souls or God Of War, which appear to frequent points of comparison in many reviews.
    However the worst part of the game is that the core gameplay loop seems to be aimlessly wandering around until you accidentally find what your are looking for, while occasionally having to solve some obnoxious "riddles", that can be extremely frustrating because of the aforementioned unreliable movement controls. So the game essentially becomes a walking simulator for a fair portion of its playtime. Not necessarily an issue in it of itself however the worlds that you move through usually feeling quite empty and bland very much is an issue. This is further aggravated by what is a hot contender for the title of "worst map in the history of video games" as well as an almost comical amount of backtracking.

    The graphics are also rather lackluster for the most part, while artificial environments actually look fairly good, the second we are in a natural environment the game looks oddly outdated, mainly due to some extremely lackluster lighting, which is odd because Unreal 4 makes it it pretty damn easy to get this right, so this might be a series of questionable stylistic choices? I dunno but it looks more like something you'd expect to see in the PC port of an end of life PS3 game. Also it is yet another game that uses the scourge known as TAA, so even at 4k the entire screen looks blurry as hell. Btw this cannot be disabled in the options, so you can't even replace it with something decent like FXAA (the irony of calling FXAA a decent alternative to anything should speak for itself) or SMAA through the driver or reshade. At least out of the box, i haven't messed around with the config files yet. The performance is ok, but worse than I would expect given the graphics.

    As a sidenote, while the game does tell you that they recommend using a controller at the beginning (Which is kinda ridiculous but sure whatever) I tried just that and the controls are arguably even worse, probably depends on what input device you are used to. Regardless of personal preference using a gamepad is certainly not a game changer, and the issues mentioned earlier are still there to the same degree.

    Loving this game, taking me back to that old gaming experience where story and game play experience merge beautifully. Minor glitches but nothing that takes away from the enjoyment of the game. If EA keeps this up they can redeem themselves, no pay to play. Not everything is about multiplayer. God of War proved this point. **Note to EA** Learn from this !!!

    The best star wars or not the best space sci-fi adventure game that I’ve ever played! The in game scenery is gorgeous and very detailed and well thought out. Gameplay in particular combat feels very engaging and addicting. Respawn has done a very good job in saving EA’s ass. So wait not more, get the game right away.

    Managed to complete the game after just shy of 18 hours and I can say without a doubt that this is an amazing game. I enjoyed every bit of it (Even me being bad and dying 20 times to the same enemy), combat is fun, the story is engaging, exploration is interesting and the graphics are breathtaking.
    Highly Recommended.

    There are much better examples of the game-play this tries to have - I would rather re-play the Force Unleashed or Tomb Raider.
    I can only imagine all the 10's are either blinded by the fact it's Star Wars, or they're inhumanly patient and forgiving people.

    Just finished them game. This game is combination of Darksouls and Tombarider.
    Graphics and music are outstanding. Did play with mouse and keyboard but had to remap some buttons. Only Dislike about the game is that you need to get back to the same planets again and again.

    First things first, regardless of whether this is good or bad in itself depending on what you like: there is a whole lot of platforming.

If you like that however it is rather well done for what it is (I personally would not have bought the game knowing how much platforming was involved ). Fights are well done though there is nothing original and all has been seen/borrowed from other games.

    The duration of the game is artificially inflated by having to go back to locations due to lack of some skills when you first get there.

    The story is shallow and just a pretext. Some animations look awkward and there are many technical issues. Overall it lacks polish.

    There is no risk taken whatsoever with this game, gameplay or story wise,...it is made to not displease Disney, China and whoever else on Earth and beyond. It is rather bland. The most originality I have found in this game were a few seconds of Mongolian throat singing.

    Also, story wise, there was not a single reason for not having some minimal character customization.It is not like Geralt in Witcher 3 who was based on books. Cal is a blank sheet.

    At $92 CAD for the regular edition with taxes, it is way overpriced for what it is.

Also animations are glitchy sometimes and doesn't look that well in general.

    * Performance. Even though the graphics are quite far behind the top games of this generation, the performance is still quite bad. Playing on max settings on a 2080 Ti, I still get micro freezes and stuttering (using latest drivers). With respect to the graphics being quite far behind top tier games like God of War, Uncharted 4, Red Dead Redemption 2 and Shadow of the Tomb Raider, I would have expected much better performance.
