    Very good game in my opinion. Story is OK, nothing special.
    More importantly the gameplay is really good. I love fighting, even though perfect parries and evading got harder than the last time. I remember playing Grandmaster difficulty in previous Jedi installment and Jedi knight in this one and it feels harder to do defensive moves.
    It has so much more content and way to get extra

    It has so much more content and way to get extra force/healt/skills and usually you enjoy addressing the challenges related to it. There's one nice open world that you keep exploring.

    Some challenges for skill points are extremely difficult and you should prepare few hours to finish them and potentially some backup controllers in case you break some ;)

    Bosses are reasonably doable, not really frustrating if you come prepared. The only real problems I had were with one particular lizard like creature, and some Jedi bosses at the end.

    I didn't have problems with gameplay, although the game could look a bit better. I had to scale to high level of detail and turn off raytracing with GTX3060 and 32gb ram, 13th generation of Intel processor. It wasn't running that smooth if not done.

    There are lot of bounties and collectibles. Customization was very nice and I enjoyed it.

    Generally I would say this game was better than the last one. It took me 66 hrs to finish. I didnt pick up all the collectibles though.

    This game is good, I came into it pretty much blind aside from the original trailer. And came out feeling like I just played an AD for the high republic era, regardless of stormtroopers being everywhere it honestly feels like the empire takes a complete back seat until the very end.

    Right now I have very little care for the high republic, and inserting a full on high republic storyline
    This game is good, I came into it pretty much blind aside from the original trailer. And came out feeling like I just played an AD for the high republic era, regardless of stormtroopers being everywhere it honestly feels like the empire takes a complete back seat until the very end.

    Right now I have very little care for the high republic, and inserting a full on high republic storyline in what is supposed to be an imperial survive as a jedi on the run story just felt forced to some extent. I think if they did I similar story like this and left the high republic out of it then it would be much better.

    The writing starts to fall apart in the very end, but the story overall was good, but it's really hard to not feel like I played a high republic AD, some may like that, but it could've been it's own game. Not inserted into this. I didn't come to play a high republic game, I came to play a jedi surviving from the empire. For a game called jedi Survivor, I didn't really get that vibe, which I did playing fallen order.

    Also this game seems to really become unbalanced in the parkour/puzzel department, fallen order had a nice balance of puzzle and parkour, and the majority of this game is parkour. Not sure where the balance went.

    I gave fallen order an 8. I am giving Jedi Survivor a 7

    Performance issues the whole game. But I can't give it a bad rating because im still so blown away by it. Had a blast playing it. The customizations are unreal and there is so much to do!
    10/10 without performance issues.

    I recommend waiting until the issues are fixed.

    Better in all aspects of the game than fallen order. Very beautiful, interesting story filled with emotions. Gameplay-wise, some of the mini-bosses were too easy to defeat. Occasionally met with some bugs.

    I think the story was great, the gameplay was good and almost every aspect of Fallen order was improved upon. The performance on the other hand.... Jesus. The game would've easily been a 9 for me were it not for the performance issues. And the price is totally unjustified. If you want 70$ for a game, earn it.

    Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is an amazing game and a must-try for Star Wars fans. Even though the game’s release was one of the worst in 2023 due to its clunky performance, the story & gameplay did give a perfect example that single-player games are far from dead!

So, you can’t get bored because if you bored, you can change your stance and continue your game with a new combat style. Also, storytelling is better than fallen Order. I played these 2 game and i can tell you that storytelling in Jedi Survivor is very good. Of course not like a GOW or Last of us but still survivor’s storytelling is good absolutely final parts are amazing. Expand

My PC is a $900 pc and im playing it just fine with my setting and i had ray tracing on the bad thing about the ray tracing is that it will cause graphical glitches when on. a the only thing I've seen that suck is when i first started the game at some part the game struggles to load the pause menu other then that the game doesn't stutter or lag on my pc. This game is 100% worth it the game feels very slimmer to the last game but there are some differences that changed what need to be changed and kept what was like and like that cause a lot of game like to change a lot of thing up with the second game title cough cough ea but luckily they didn't do this time so far i would give this game 7.5/10. Also i play with a controller the game even recorded to use a controller i haven't tried to play this game on keyboard and mouse but most games like this playing with a keyboard is going to be more trouble then it worth.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Falando em jogo, o jogo continua incrível, uma história excelente, profunda, porém EU ACHEI longa mais do que o necessário, dava para ter encurtado, foram 26 horas para finalizar e mais pro final não via a hora de terminar, pois estava massante, a gameplay segue as premissas do anterior com adições de novos estilos de combates chamado de postura, achei muito bom poder variar, e cada vilão exige uma postura/uma forma de combate diferente, isso é excelente.
    gráficos, achei aquém da geração atual, os cenários são lindos, mas a modelagem dos personagens muito ruim, pior ainda a modelagem dos personagens secundários, os cabelos parece cabelo de anime, que não tem fios, a barba do Cal não tem fios, é um serrilhado que fica piscando, é muito estranho.

    falando de otimização, desde o lançamento consegui colocar uma configuração que era capaz de jogar sem muito engasgos, após alguns Path, hoje o game já está muuuuito melhor.

    Minha nota é 7 não devido apenas a otimização, mas existem mecânicas horrorosas no Fallen Order e que mantiveram, não corrigiram mecânicas que poderiam melhorar a experiência in game, acho uma putaria essa câmera largada e que vai pra onde quer, morri várias vezes pq a câmera simplesmente deixava de ficar centrada no oponente, as vezes ela parava dentro das paredes, eu não via nada, aí era só o oponente me golpeando.

    Personally this game ran quite decently for me and I never crashed once from start to finish. The story was definitely worth seeing and I am not even a Star Wars fan. You can see video of my performance at its worst here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RrGMdWP-mGs

    Don't worry, that's just the first part of the game!

    Now, others have had a terrible time with the game and its performance depending on many factors. Some cannot play the game. Steam refusing refunds. All scummy so I have to knock some points off. BUT if you are able to play the game it is worthwhile, and this is coming from someone who doesn't complete games.

    This game is NOT buggy in the way like The Last of Us (I gave that game a 0).

    But the bigger question, is it worth 70?

    NO. However I must commend the care, attention, and otherwise thought put into the game's story and setting. Definitely one of the better games in recent release once the performance issues are fixed.

    Some will be put off by the traversal. I hated it at times, but it did add a sometimes comedic element to the game when I was like "where the heck do I go?" If you like that kind of thing and solving puzzles, the game might have higher value for you there.

    XBox and PS5 works perfect but on PC is the Performace Bad. Console Versions are better optimized.
    The controls are the same as in the predecessor and the graphics are also better (consoles) than in the predecessor, so I can recommend everyone to buy the game, it's worth it.

    Sounds like a lot of whiny people complaining! I have a 1660 Ti and it runs almost perfectly, so I don't know what's up. Sure, there's some stuttering when entering big areas, but nothing like what these people are saying. When it comes to the game itself, it expands on everything the first game did well. So far I've been having an absolute blast with it.

    It’s an incredibly fun game but crashes a lot. However it didn’t annoy me as much as I thought because as I said it’s such a fun experience, especially when you played Fallen Order before.

    I have to say that the PC port isn’t optimized that well. I’ve experienced some dramatic frame drops at some areas. I suggest to play the Xbox or PS5 version, if you have the opportunity to do so.

Yes, there are bugs and crashes here and there I myself encountered 4 crash and some fall from map issues, but that doesn't shadow how great the game is. The music, the voice acting and combat are great, also the story and surprises were good too. the game inspired from dark souls, uncharted and assassins creed play styles. Recommended.

    I didn't get too bad performance issues and the game generally runs fine, with some minor shattering, so some polishing is in order of course. It is generally "more of the same" game, compared to the 1st part. The story is good, but I am not the biggest fan of constantly and endlessly respawning enemies. Luckily there is story mode, so thanks for that.

    Good game, but it shouldn’t have released in this state.

    I normally dedicate a good portion of my reviews to PC performance and for Jedi Survivor here I cannot ignore the poor state the PC version still is.
    The game launched with very poor CPU and GPU utilization issues, which after thee patches after release, five in total counting the ones implemented right before launch, has improved a bit, but not enough to call it a smooth experience, at all.

    You see, the planet of Koboh is the main area in this game, we spend 80% of the time here and always end up coming back here, also at various times in the day and, particularly when its night time, Koboh exhibits pretty poor CPU performance and very unstable frame times.
    This is even without Ray Tracing, but enabling it makes things even worse, as expected, sin Ray Tracing has that extra load on the CPU side of things too.

    On my R5 3600 and RTX 3060 Ti, I’ve played Open World games such as both Spider-Man games with great performance, even at 1620p DLDSR, but Jedi Survivor here can’t even do stable 50 FPS at 1080p, running around the Harvest Ridge riverbanks in the central hub area of Koboh where the Pyloon’s Saloon is.
    This is even with RT OFF, and increasing resolutions doesn’t really do much to improve the poor CPU performance in this game: the code has serious bottlenecks and I have seen the numerous reports, with frame data analysis, from users with much more powerful rigs than mine, also showing how unstable the frametimes can be.

    Brute Forcing through a bad PC port of a game can only help until a certain point, the game is still under performing for a lot of people no matter how much hardware you throw at it, compared to similar or even bigger current generation games.

    I take my time to test every update that releases, and while I have seen CPU improvements being implemented, which have improved Ray Tracing performance by 20-30%, the starting point for that uplift was so abysmally low that not even a 30% increase feels decent, also because the frame times are still very bad, reaching the 100 ms area quite often.

    So, the game still needs more patches, as of May 21st of 2023, and I have just completed the main story, so let’s talk about that a bit now.

    If you liked Jedi Fallen Order, this game is a must to play, even if you choose to wait for more patches, the Gameplay is fun, the Exploration is a lot better than the previous game, more stuff to discover, cool secrets and encounters, it’s all in here.

    Music is pretty decent, with some really epic tracks for some of the most exciting moments but also many of the more dramatic ones.

    This is truly a game crafted by Respawn for sure, something you may forget while playing until to reach a certain set piece at the end of one of the planets and you instantly go “yeah, this is 100% Respawn, no doubt”, and it feels awesome.

    Characters are very detailed, graphically, and well animated, and when it comes to their writing, I like most of the main cast stories and how they develop.

    Level Design is superb, some of the vistas in Koboh are spectacular, everything is seamless when going from one place to another, so good job there Respawn.
    The game looks excellent when RT is used, and a bit weak on the Lighting side if RT is OFF, which is a shame but nothing major. Asset, Geometry and Material quality is great, it looks like a Current Gen game for sure.

    That said, I have some issues with how they wrote most of the villains and antagonists, I’m not getting into spoilers, but I feel that for the second game in this series, they should have taken a few extra risks, particularly what can be considered the “main villain” through the first two thirds of the game…felt quite hollow in the end to me, how their fate came to be, among other issues.

    That alone would make be just score this game at like 8.5 or 9 over 10, it’s not terrible that some characters are poorly written, overall the rest are quite amazing, but I cannot ignore the current state of this game on PC, and I’m aware it also has severe issues on consoles, which in the end all come from the same core issues, like having crashes on PC when RT is enabled in one of the planets, I’ve seen consoles also crashing, and so on.

    Unfortunately this means I have to score this game at a 6/10, until they vastly improve its code. Yes, to me performance is worth a whole 3 points at least, it is crucial, I’m not asking for the impossible either: plenty of good PC ports out there, including some from very modern and demanding games.

    I hope this is not the end of this IP, and they do more with it in the future, I support Respawn in their decisions and I like this franchise a lot, but they need to fix this game’s performance.

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.

    Some hugely bad issues can be seen while fighting, especially at platform edges. For hard games fight should be most polished, otherwise it is not enjoyable.

    This is the fact that studios are being pushed by publishers to release game. 6 episodes, Jedi Knights, Kotor are better for now. Developers, you should fight for your game.

    Overall, game is mediocre, however if they could change story and polish it, it would be masterpiece. How bizarre game industry has become.

    However gameplay hasn't been changed much from Fallen order, so it feels great to play through.

You could sell decently more copies without being guided by a strange policy. And the second is the technical condition, which could have been much better. The game is of high quality, EA's policy is disgusting to me. Thanks again to respawn for an exciting adventure, and EA is a shame.. Because of all these casual moments, we have to lower the rating.

This is the best game of the past few years in my opinion and i have lots of emotions and beautiful aftertaste after I've completed it. And about otpimization. We live in a time when only garbage is released almost polished this is the reality so we need to learn to deal with it. Wait for patches or just enjoy the greatness in the projects we get.... if they have it. I recommend the game for ppl with higher gpus than 1080 Ti and CPU I7 and higher on a pc. I'm afraid on laptop with this configuration will work poorly. And on stream try not to stream to more than one source. And for capture on my pc it captured fine in 40-60 fps the rest was done by obs and davinci. So don't listen to the hate even if it's anticipated, enjoy the moment.

    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.

    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.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. As a huge fan of Fallen Order, I was really excited to play this game and let's just say that I have some complicated feelings about this game, at least on PC. Exploration, puzzle-solving, combat; and customization are the strong points of this game and are all excellent. The game is absolutely huge and there is tons of things to do and places to explore, even after finishing the end of the main story. Story itself was a mixed bag for me. There were certain moments that I really liked such as Cal and Merrin, Cere vs. Vader, and the final showdown on Tanalorr. However the High Republic B-plot was extremely lackluster, not adding much to the story of the game with Dagan Gera and that other Jedi being extremely forgettable characters. Technical department is where things are not so great. While certain parts of the map looked visually amazing (even on a PC with 8 GB ram), there were other parts of the map and (especially the Mantis and Pyloon's saloon) where the texture quality was extremely low or non-existent completely pulling me out of the immersion. This game could have definitely had more time to bake in the oven and it's really frustrating an expensive $70 game had such poor technical issues. Expand

    All in all this game improves almost everything that the first game had. This game has a better story, better combat (mostly), better music and etc. But the issues it has is what makes it slightly worse than the first one instead of being way better.

    First of all, the stances. one handed is not really useful, crossguard is way too weak to be that slow, the pistol stance is not really as good as it's supposed to be and that is mainly down to the ammo being limited instead of a cooldown. I mainly only used dual wield and dual blade in some rare occasions. The skill tree was a little underwhelming if I am being honest, too many situation based skills instead of overall good skills.

    The open world approach was a good idea but not well executed since the maps were huge but not filled with much, yes there were a lot of side objectives to do and make the game feel fresh but the rewards were not worth the trouble at all. This also made the game feel less fun in general and why it is ultimately worse than the first one (by a small margin).

    This game has a much better story, improved gameplay, slightly better antagonists and much much better customization. Yet none of it matter when it falls short on the key aspects, let us take the boss fights for example, I beat the game on the hardest difficulty and instead of bosses being challenging, they were just spam attacking and that's all that made them "hard", you just needed to do the same attacks for 6 minutes to beat them and it became so annoying and boring. In the first game bosses were challenging and fun to beat.

    Performance wise as of writing this review, the game ran very smoothly on a mid end pc.

    I have a few more small annoyances to mention but I think my point has been made. Great game but forgot what made the first game so good and fun to play, this game just ended up slightly soulless and only fun to star wars fans.

    This is a great single player game with great gameplay. I love how it evolved from the first part. The combat evolved a lot and there is a lot of variance how to fight enemies. I finished the first part on Grand Master difficulty. And now already spend ~15 hours on Jedi survivor also on the hardest difficulty. It brings a lot of joy once you master the parry mechanic and understand how to defeat different enemies (spend 40 minutes on Rancor).
    If you like challenging single player game with great combat - just pick the hardest difficulty and the game will bring you a lot of fun.
    The only negative part is performance, it's not terrible, it's ok. I play on Xbox series X on 4K TV, I have some noticable fps drops time to time, but that is 4k and the console is already 3 years after release, it's analogue of rtx 2070-2080. So if you have rtx 30**/40** series and full HD monitor - I believe there wouldn't be any noticable issues with fps. I mean Witcher 3 had good enough 100+ fps only after many years of release and the game was still good. So this one is great as well.

The largest issue this game has was the unfinished state it was released in. I have a reasonably beefy computer, and I had to run this game on the lowest settings to urk out 30 fps. This game SHOULD have been pushed back to a later date on PC. Developers have gotten too complacent in releasing unfinished games. The reason older games didn't have nearly as many bugs and performance issues on release is that they couldn't just release a patch a few months after the game was released. With that being said, overall this game is a massive improvement over the first. In its current state, I would recommend this to people who played the first game, not people who are just on the outside looking in though. Expand
