    Poor performance, no DLSS, unoptimized and unplayable PC port.
    Even with the latest hardware you get 40-50 fps.

    Bought Game on EA Store. Due to the PC performance issues I have not started playing the game because if you don't play the game you have 14 days to refund versus 24hr. I wanted to be playing the game not reading performance reports and check for patches.

    Fun game for the first few hours I could play. I can't get it to stay up long enough to get to a save point anymore. 7 hours in and I can't play now. I'd wait a few months on it. I wouldn't be so disappointed in being unable to play if I didn't think the game was good bc it is. PC specs: i9 13900 KF, Asus Prime Z790-P, 32 gig DDR5 6000 MHz, RTX 4080.

    Once again EA delivers a terrible PC port. The game that already suffered from unlikable and ugly side characters now is a ugly terribly performing game overall.

    The professional critics giving this a 80 or 100 score should be ashamed of themselves. They can't have actually played this.

    This could've been an amazing launch.

Tried lowering the resolution to 1440p and it didn't help improving the FPS much - got closer to 48FPS, which is super odd. Also FSR settings did not make any difference.

    The poor FPS seems to related to the scale of the scenes and how open world is. I can only achieve 35fps at most in the open world scenes but managed to get 60+ FPS in smaller scenes. In other world - this team is very inexperienced in building Open-world games and this might the the core of the issue. In this case I'm not sure if any patch would be able to fix it.

    Low FPS is not even the most annoying part - the camera stuttering making this game unplayable at the time being. Every time you turn the camera more than 90 degree you'll see major stutter. Again - this is particular painful in open world scenes, you can't really do any fighting when it just constantly dips below 30fps.

    Don't buy it now, wait for it to be on sale and fix these issues.

    Another disastrous AAA game launch.

The first game ran smooth on my previous system but this is an abomination. The prologue was tolerable but in Kobok or whatever it is called. The game crawls. Cant experience this in this state. Dont buy this. Vote with your money and dont give this a chance at all. Aparantly, some people have such low standards that they are happy to play a game at 15-20 fps with stutters. Reminds me when I was a kid and had no money to get a proper system with a graphics card. Expand

    Technical state of the game is too terrible to recommend it now even for players with top tier rigs.
    The game itself is not bad, in short - if you played Fallen Order, this game makes has similar gameplay but makes everything better.
    Just wait for the fix of technical issues before buying, it could be worth 8-9 points one fixed, but is unplayable completely for most players at a moment.

    The game's performance is inconsistent, dropping frame rates to as low as 0 and fluctuating between 35 to 70 fps in native 4K + Ultra + RT (FSR disabled). Enabling FSR gives just +20 fps boost, but doesn't solve anything.
    There are many who says it CPU hungry, but I never saw it exceeding 30% of my CPU, so I believe it's not the main issue, it's more about loading resources. But the game only uses 8-10GB or RAM and I have plenty, why not use more?

    Additionally, the game freezes for a few seconds whenever any internal loading starts and it scares me each time I jump somewhere.
    Furthermore, the game does not support the PS5 Dualsense controller at ALL!!!
    Not even with Steam Big Picture, demanding to work only with an Xbox controller compatible controller or emulator (thanks heavens, I have 8bitdo SN30 Pro+)

    I attempted to obtain a refund but failed due to closing the game just before the two-hour mark, resulting in a UE crash window that prevented the game from closing and exceeding 2 hours, and as a result, the refund request was declined.

This thing CLEARLY needed more time in the oven, and it’s a shame that couldn’t be afforded the developers here. The previous game in the series had performance issues also, but was manageable. It feels like they just built a way more complex game on that already shakey code base and here we are with something that looks 1.5 times better, and runs 1.5 times worse. I’m sure there’s a brilliant game hiding behind these technical issues, I just hope I get to experience it. For now I’ll be refunding the game pending news that the performance has been ironed out. I’m not even confident about buying the PS5 copy after hearing some negative performance reactions over there.

Memory leaks and general multicore optimization issues are also prevalent (a 78003XD is a massive bottleneck and only manages to get a GPU to 60% utilization, which is ridiculous).

    The game itself feels wonderful, but it was released in an alpha stage.

    EA also raised the price to 80 bucks for the normal version, and then spits you in the face with a bugfest.

    This game, as of now, deserves 0/10 rating.

    I would recommend buying it on sale for ~10 bucks in a year for the story. I cannot recommend this game right now.

    No DLSS, no buy. Stop stifling innovation and next gen features because you got a bag of cash from AMD.

    It's a good thing I didn't buy this game but got it for free with an AMD processor.

    Another game ruined by a DRM malware such as denuvo and lazy developers leading to horrible performance issues unless you own a 4090 -i9 13900k build. Nothing to be surprised here, EA is doing what EA is best by being an anticonsumer company.

    You should release a game in early access or have a beta if serious about being taken serious. This game should never of launched like it did.

    The state in which this "aka game" came out and the fact that the first part came out with similar problems at the start, shows how disgusting they behave to the players and to the product they create. And once again, I am amazed that (hamsters) do not learn from their mistakes and continue to pre-order and pay for air and damn promises.

    Well, now about the game itself: graphics, music, character animation - everything is fine. The interactions of the characters are even interesting, and it seems that it is better than in the first part ("actors acting"). I liked the puzzles here too. The general idea of the game with the "Sanctuary" and the sub-idea with the protagonist's understanding of what he wants from life, all these psychological dilemmas, etc. it was a good idea... but the fact that they didn’t give enough level in all aspects and made these ideas somehow sterile and too safe/sparing ... well, by God, I’m tired, where are the normal strong stories already?! Only in the indie segment?!
    Oh yeah, adventuring part... well... still not interesting at all. With the exception of improving energy and health level, everything else is useless cosmetics. For all the fashon-players, it's probably a thrill, but for the rest, it's just STILL USELESS.
    Combat: In a way, it's been made better by adding some innovations and retaining the abilities of the previous game, but otherwise, everything that looked silly in the combat in the first game has migrated here. Nobody fixed anything.
    In short, in this state, well, let it be the maximum red rating. And if they fix it - 7 is the limit. But if the next part will not differ much from this one or be also buggy, then it will receive rating zero from that moment and forever.

    Good game, abysmal port. Even after several patches fps constantly drops in almost random places. The fact that the combat was inspered by Dark Souls makes it even more laughable - fighting one-shot bosses on Grandmaster with basically random fps is pure torture.

    Games like these should be withdrawn from the shops and re-released after a technical rehaul.

    I've had this game installed and waiting to play for 127 days now but still no performance fix in sight and no news of one on the way so it's probably never coming. Another backroom AMD deal gone bad.

    Few months late, but didn't want to join a bandwagon of review bombing until my head cooled off.

    Started playing at launch (PC), and after seeing the state of the game tried to get a refund. Since it couldn't be refunded after playing for 2 hours 45 minutes, I missed my refunding window. It was some shady tactics that the first two hours of the game seemed to be the only optimized part
    Few months late, but didn't want to join a bandwagon of review bombing until my head cooled off.

    Started playing at launch (PC), and after seeing the state of the game tried to get a refund. Since it couldn't be refunded after playing for 2 hours 45 minutes, I missed my refunding window. It was some shady tactics that the first two hours of the game seemed to be the only optimized part that didn't have any critical issues.

    So, couldn't refund it, only option was to finish the game or admit I'd just thrown 90€ to the bin.

    The rest of the game became a slog of avoiding bugs, ignoring screen tearing and fps drops, taking off my headphones whenever the audio glitched on cutscenes. Fights were tricky with fps drops and resolution dipping to 480p. Sceneries were cool - the few seconds they lasted until textures disappeared - if they loaded in the first place.

    The first impression ruined the rest of the game for me totally. I hear the PC-version is nowadays mostly fixed, but I have no interest in ever going back to this game. I've seen the story, experienced the fights, so why would I? It was a horrible slog to get through in all its unfinished glory, and all the more frustrating because it would've and should've been a good experience, if only they'd bothered to release an actually working product. I feel scammed.

    This game soured me for any future sequels or DLC's.

    And I'll not be giving EA or Respawn Entertainment more money until user reviews are out and mostly positive on their upcoming releases.

    So, trying to be as objective as I possibly can, I'll give this experience a 4/10.
    Not a shovelware like Gollum, but still not a very good value for its high price.

    Good game, poorly optimised on PC which could have been averted had they implemented DLSS but no, these backroom deals with AMD ruin and limit the potential of games.

    edit: as of may 12th they've release 2 patches. 2 patches in 2 weeks, and it has done absolutely nothing for my performance, in some cases i still dip into the 10-20 range on lowest settings with FSR on ultra quality at 990p resolution. it's actually insane.

    If you get this game, get it on a console if possible, the PC version is a waste of time. you'll get polygon textures with 30fps max spikes even playing on the best hardware you can buy right now. complete disaster. Hopefully this is remedied in the coming days, but the damage is already done to Respawn, and this will go down in the same way Cyberpunk 2077 did for CDPR.

    I will not even talk about the terrible optimization of the game, everyone knows about it. I want to say that this game is many times worse compared to the first part. I don't understand why the writers made Degan Gera and Rayvis the main villains, they are the most boring and not charismatic characters. It was not interesting to follow their story.

I'd rather see a Sith villain, or Inquisitors, someone connected to the dark side of the force. And it would be better to reveal the life of the galaxy during the reign of the empire. I also expected that we would see Saw Gerrera again, but this unfortunately did not happen.

    Liked that they improved the combat system, added a lot of finishing animations, but dudes why there is so much parkour in the game, I don’t understand. It looks like I'm playing Ratchet and Clank but not Star Wars, it's kind of absurd in places.

    I would not recommend buying this game, it's better to replay the first part.

    It's so broken I can't even play it, Ryzen 2600X with RTX 4070. No matter the graphics settings I use, performance is crap. I could live with degraded graphics, but the most annoying part is that the game suffers from massive traversal stutter. On Koboh, I just can't make a few steps without having the game freeze all over the place. With RT disabled, medium quality (not even high). It's even not a matter of above 30fps at this point, we are talking about 1 frame every 2 seconds !!

    I really wanted to enjoy the game, but in it's current state... It actually performs far worse than Cyberpunk 2077 did at launch on my old RTX 2080 Ti.

    EA, you really need to up your game here, and fix the damn game. I'm not buying any more game from you until you have proven you can deliver a game that performs as advertised

    Respawn Entertainment still looks up to Dark Souls, but at the same time they try to make a hardcore game with the most softcore experience. For example, there’s always plenty of shortcuts, so Cal never loses much progress after his inevitable demise. [Issue#262, p.58]

    Deep and tantalizing combat, enticing exploration, smooth platforming, and strong narrative moments lead the way in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor. This sequel improves nearly everything and only the suboptimal framerate leaves a sour taste.

    The best Star Wars game of recent years is unfortunately plagued by serious technical problems that dampen the enjoyment.
