    The game looked great, it had good reviews, exciting trailers, and they said it had good gameplay.
    All of that is not true when you actually play the game. The story is boring, the characters are NOT onions, they have no layers. and the gameplay, oh god. movement is clunky, the controls are bad, and most parts of a planet are incredibly boring.

This game is more uncharted than star wars, because 75% of the time you're doing puzzles or doing platforming sections. This game is a platformer, not an action adventure game. If you want a difficult yet fun experience, play sekiro or the soulsborne games, not this piece of garbage.

    I was excited to see a new singleplayer star wars adventure, but it really disappoints.    … Expand

    The controls and gameplay animations are clunky and infuriating. Anything to do with traversal is horrendous - trying to grab vines, running on walls, grabbing ledges is not fluid and breaks the pace of the game. In some parts seems like the character just misses an obvious ledge or rope resulting in death and loss of health.

    The meditation / health mechanic is irritating and also breaks the pace of the game. I wish they had just stuck to a traditional health replenishment system. eg. just find or craft health 'stims' as you go around the game instead of revisiting meditation points which resets enemies, resulting in you having to re-kill them all.

    You'll like this game more if you are into the animated Star Wars TV shows - the aliens, creatures and motion in this game feel cartoony and exaggerated to me. Understand the stylised approach from a technical perspective but feels too much.

    A few design decisions are a bit out of place in my opinion - like having huge, portly aliens dressed in imperial guard uniforms with no shoes. But I guess if you are accustomed to things like the Clone Wars animated show you wont find this strange.

    They've mixed in some Uncharted-esque tomb raiding levels but without the same fluid traversal as something like Uncharted 4 these segments are aggravating to play. You just want them to be over asap.

    You spend most of your time fighting seriously overpowered fauna that appear from literally nowhere and get stuck in 'boss fights' with 'Tolkien' type creatures. I don't want to spend my time fighting Orcs and ogres in a SW game to be honest, I'd prefer more one-on-one / group lightsaber battles.

    When you do get to fight a group of troopers, fighting multiple enemies can be a bit of a nightmare. You can only really focus on one at a time and that seems to leave you exposed to blaster fire from other troopers quite easily. Constantly evading and not being able to transition smoothly back into attack mode because there's either clunkiness in controls or animations.

    Kind of disappointed overall but appreciate the effort to make a single player SW game. When you can figure out a rhythm and obtain more skills in the skill tree, the lightsaber gameplay gets better. I just wish they'd focused more on that overall and less on puzzles and alien fights.    … Expand

    Too much platforming without reason , movement is awkward and combat repetitive. Its a jump simulator with backtracking.

    Good history and characters and thats about it. Dont buy it for the gameplay.
    EA set the bar so low after all the bad games that people are giving 10's for a below average game. Good job EA

    There has been a lot of praise for this game for righting some wrongs from other Star Wars franchise games. However I do not consider that it does enough to become a great title with it's lacklustre, unimaginative and bugged gameplay.

However I do not consider that it does enough to become a great title with it's lacklustre, unimaginative and bugged gameplay.

    Fallen Order continuously takes elements from other games, this is not necessarily a bad thing but where other games with similar gameplay have pushed and refined gameplay, Fallen Order keeps on coming short on the aspects that it explores. Combat can be at times interesting but it doesn't feel polished or memorable enough. There isn't enough enemy variety, there are only a handful of notable boss fights and the gameplay can feel sloppy or unresponsible, especially when the game just throws a big number of enemies your way as a way of escalating difficulty.

    Parrying is one of the main aspects of this game, but unfortunately the game doesn't understand that once you break someone's guard you should be able to deal significant damage so all of that risk that you took finally pays off. All you get is some stagger time to damage an enemy after you've successfully parried their attacks for long enough.

    Platforming is another aspect where the game tries to emulate games like uncharted or metroidvenias but falls flat. The upgrades feel like things that could have been implemented from the beginning of the game and don't really blend well together. We see time and time again the need to wall jump, double jump and slide but it's never done in a way that is challenging, fun or intresesting. Just modes of traversal to get you from one point to another.

    Finally I wanted to note a lot of technical aspects that I experienced whilst playing this game in the base PS4:

    Clippings
    FPS drops (significant enough to hinder gameplay)
    Crashes
    Bugs (including T posing, enemies floating, enemies fighting each other)

    All of them had a significant enough impact that it affected my enjoyment of the game.

    In conclusion, Fallen Order feels like a game that uses all the correct elements from other genres trying to blend something unique but falls flat on every turn. I still feel like Star Wars fans deserve better than a Dark Souls/Sekiro clone that isn't even bold enough to refine or experiment with the gameplay or take a stance on it's difficulty.

I'm about two hours in, in which time I've gone from grinning like an idiot, to being utterly fed up and crestfallen. After Disney disappointed us all with Episodes 7, 8 and 9, I so wanted this to be a return to form for Star Wars, a welcome addition to the franchise like The Mandalorian.

    However, after a few hours with the combat system, it's with a heavy heart that I uninstalled the game, mainly due to the combat. If you've played any form of third person action game with a block or parry system (Assassin's Creed, Shadow of Mordor etc), you'll appreciate that when a game suggests that 'if an enemy flashes red, this is an unavoidable attack, so dodge', that dodging will in fact see the enemy miss you.

    In Fallen Order, an enemy will signal that they're going to carry out a heavy attack, and will then lunge to where you've dodged to, thus defeating the point of dodging at all. I've played games with a dodge mechanic, and it should be a case of dodging, so that the enemy's attack lands where you WERE. On the first planet (forgettable name), you fight a monster after leaving the temple. This is not the larger, 'come back later' boss, just a tougher enemy. To be honest, why in a Star Wars game are we fighting huge lizards and frogs with a lightsaber? How often did you see that in the films? While fighting this monster, I died time and time again, due to an absolutely shambolic and shoddily designed combat system. The game prompts that pressing 'up' heals you - it doesnt. It takes a few presses before the game finally responds, at which point you've died anyway. All commands are delayed, so that parrying is a painful task, and Cal has the controlability of a **** on an ice rink. Occasionally you will find yourself up against multiple enemies as well. Now, in other games, if you're carrying out a pre-scripted parry with a cool flourish, other enemies won't attack. Not in this game. You can be mid-parry, locked into an animation of Cal finishing an enemy, and a second enemy will begin attacking you. Combine this woeful combat system with a yawn-fest that is world traversal and you've got yourself a truly **** title, one which only received such high reviews due to the Star Wars brand. On the subject of traversal, I realised how poorly designed it was very early on, with the first planet. After returning to the ship, I realised I had an 'unexplored' area, right beside the start point. I thought I'd check it out, and I got a third stim pack for doing so. However, I then realised I had no way of getting back up. After looking at the horrendous 3D map, you realise that you now have to traverse all the way to the end again, just to reach a ledge that'll lead you back round again.

    Oh, and the cherry on this mud-pie - loading times are abysmal, especially considering I'm running a PS4 with an SSD, and the frame rate drops frequently as you move around the environment. Avoid like the plague.    … Expand

With a story and gameplay beginning that starts off bombastic and interesting it quickly simmer’s down that as you’re getting familiar to the clunky controls and uninspired speck of enemies. Every platform jump is shaky at best with plenty of instances where sudden loss of control of your character happens. Luckily enough you just get put back into place with a sliver of health lost and can get back into it quickly - just to try the goddamn ice-slide again to randomly sway away from the point you’re trying to get to... The combat and controls in battle are yet again clunky, unintuitive and sometimes down right stupid. You’ll be having multiple targets attacking you at once trying to parry something just to have the game completely disregard the parry command and depleting your stamina meter faster than you’ll see a hidden blaster shoot you in the back. It’s like Sekiro had a fat, westerner uncle that wanted to join in on the fun but didn’t take the time to learn anything before hand. Dodging is... Dodgy at times with a tiny side step or awkward roll that’s not fast enough to recover before most opponents starts whacking you with **** again. Force skills are weird and uses way too much of your meter for the usage coupled with annoying applications. If I were to slow most opponents in the game and try to move into a advantageous position behind the enemy they literally spin around with you in the same speed and sometimes in their attacking animation just slowing down the inevitable. Animations are janky and very unpolished, take the running animation that spazzes out constantly together with plenty of instances where it almost looked like I started T-posing because I got stuck in random terrain.

    In all fairness it is a game, a game that tries its best with what it’s got. I’m just feeling that there either wasn’t enough time, budget or back up from EA to help make this the amazing title it could’ve been.

    En plus de souffrir d'un syndrome bien connu du Triple A, c'est à dire un jeu techniquement pas fini, problèmes de collision très fréquents, physique douteuse(le perso ne semble jamais toucher le sol...), textures fades à ce rtains endroit et animations cassées(ça fait bcp pour un jeu vendu 70 euros). Pointons surtout de gros soucis de framerate sur console. Le jeu ne tenant pas les 30fps sur console clasique (!) et disposant d'un faux mode 60fps sur modèle pro (gageons que le 30fps soit au moins stable sur console pro.)

    Pour ce qui est du gameplay, comme évoqué plus haut, le jeu est un mélange assez médiocre de Tomb Raider/Uncharted, avec des phases de plateformes pas franchement réussies, peu précises et assez répétitives. Phases qui seront couplées à des combats clairement inspirés de l'univers de From Software, et plus précisément de Sekiro et sa barre de posture. Pour ces derniers, encore une fois, le jeu propose une adaptation assez médiocre des jeux From Foftware, avec des combats imbuvables et ultra bordéliques dès qu'on dépasse 2 mob à gérer. Un personnage d'une lourdeur insupportable à déplacer, et des situations où l'on comprend clairement que Respawn ne maîtrise pas la virtuosité de la firme japonaise en terme de level design. Le plus pénible étant le disposition des mobs qui semble avoir été décidée de manière complètement anarchique.
    De plus, alors que les combats contre les humanoïde en versus peuvent s'avérer plaisants, la gestion du spacing et des parades contre la faune sauvage est encore une fois complètement ratée. Il est très difficile de lire les coups des bestioles sauvages dans le jeu, la gestion de l'espace est tellement catastrophique que combattre ces bestioles relève plus d'une punition que d'un moment de plaisir.

    Reste le côté classe d'incarner un chevalier Jedi, de personaliser son sabre. Il faut tout de même saluer la tentative de Respawn de nous proposer un vrai RPG solo dans l'univers de Star Wars, de créer des situations divertissantes avec les pouvoirs de la force, mais le copie finale semble bien lacunaire.

    Such a disappointment... Maybe it's because I'm old enough to remember playing dark forces and jedi knight... Mechanics are crap, gameplay is crap, just crap... Meh. 4/10 because at least it's star wars.

    Disappointment of the year.

    While characters and plot are decent and gripping, it all falls down to atrocious controls and one of the worst game mechanics I've seen in my gaming years. The game doesn't register input from your controller half of the time so combat is basically always with a handicap. One wrong step while in combat (which happens 99% of the time), stagger animation triggers and before it plays out, enemies usually shoot/club you to death. Difficulty in this game is represented by throwing as many enemies at you as possible with a random rocket launcher wielding stormtrooper shooting at you from a distance to top it off. Every enemy is faster, their attacks reach further and they always block everything. Bosses are overpowered and boring AF.
    You play as the clunkiest jedi in the universe and it doesn't get any better even after 10 hours of gameplay. And the people who claim it's super easy even on the hardest difficulty either lie or they played it on story mode difficulty.

    I am shocked by the many good reviews of this game, especially from publications.

    I started playing the game on the second to hardest difficulty and had to lower it after I made it to the end of the second planet. The game puts you in unwinnable situations and I would be ok with this to some point of the resspawn times were not horrendous (on PS4) and take upwards of a minute.

Controls can be clunky and are sometimes unresponsive.

    The negatives of the game:
    - Do you like snowboarding games with poor controls? Then you will like much of the beginning of this game as it has you sliding down areas repeatedly.
    - Characters are few and boring. I think the Nightsister was the only one that had a personality.
    - Story is weak and the parts that are supposed to enact some sort of emotion fall flat. Maybe this is Disney's influence. The ending is interesting but far too little to make up for the rest.
    - "Metroidvania" is not an excuse for a confusing layout.
    - As I said before the controls are clunky and sometimes unresponsive. They released a new patch for this but it has not improved.
    - Lack of attention to detail. For instance when underwater it completely skips an animation when you open a chest. This just shows you how little they cared to polish this game. Graphical bleed through happens constantly.

    Positives:
    - The few boss fights exist are enjoyable.
    - Art design is good.    … Expand

Replay factor = 0, combat sooooooo repetitive, and what I hate more than anything: the game asks for you to look for everything! You search for seeds, boxes, echoes even for paths.

    Not sure how this game has such a high review score. The controls are incredibly clunky and fighting is a laborious chore. When fighting multiple enemies it is almost impossible to not get hit due to the lengthy parry animation and much of the game is frustrating and tedious. Levels are unnecessarily long and convoluted to the point that finding your way back to the ship is a nightmare. INot sure how this game has such a high review score.

I think the worst thing about this game is the reload times, oh my god the reload times, after you die it takes about a minute to reload the game, bizarrely if you fall off a ledge the game reloads you instantly to the last safe ground but even if you are right next to a save point and die to an enemy yep go make a cup of tea because you have time to kill. In its defence the graphics are very good and the atmosphere within the game is great, lots of cosmetic items to kit yourself out with and it has a very "star wars" feel but this is not even close to enough to save this from being mediocre. Many people have likened this to dark souls in terms of fighting and feel, dont be misled this is a very poor imitation of a very poor game. Don't waste your money… Expand

This is the same for the average look of the game too. Loading times also feel retro, appalling in fact. Story ok though, but that's only because I am a huge star wars fan.

    Hello everyone,

    Let me start off by saying that I have put multiple hours into this game. I have achieved 100% completion at grandmaster difficulty and I have unlocked every achievement available on this game for the PS4 system. PSN: MiamiChampagne (In the event you want to verify achievement completion.) Before I begin my review I would like to thank the story creatives that    Hello everyone,

    Let me start off by saying that I have put multiple hours into this game. I have achieved 100% completion at grandmaster difficulty and I have unlocked every achievement available on this game for the PS4 system.

    PSN: MiamiChampagne (In the event you want to verify achievement completion.)

    Before I begin my review I would like to thank the story creatives that thought of the storyline and I would also like to thank the artists that created such a beautiful experience for us. I feel that this story has been phenomenal and has far exceeded my expectations especially since it takes place between both episodes 3 and 4.

    Unfortunately like every game the player spends most of the time playing and not soaking in the story, and for that this game is getting a 4/10 from me.

    Bugs/Glitches:
    The amount of bugs and glitches that I have experienced while playing Star Wars has left me with a very sour taste. There have been times in game where my enemies are levitating in the air and I am unable to reach them, there have been times while exploring my character seemingly falls into the map and continues to fall until he dies. The frame rate and the speed in which this game operates is very upsetting and frustrating. I have experienced over 30 game crashes and close to 40 times which my game freezes for about 15 to 20 seconds mid swing of my light saber and then the game continues to work, this was very upsetting and frustrating. Playing on a grand master difficulty there is no reason why I as a player am able to cheese my way through the entire game. This game has had poor planning in regards to enemy location. While playing I have been able to prevent my enemies from crossing through a threshold/doorway, all I need to do is just strike them and go back through the doorway, rinse and repeat and I win. There's no reason for any game in 2019 should be released like this to the public in this condition. It's not new news that EA has had a very bad reputation in regards to creating any Star Wars affiliated titles. This was EA's last opportunity to redeem themselves and they failed. It pains me to write this because the story and the details on creatures and enemies and just where it fits in the timeline was so well planned that I as a Star Wars fan greatly appreciate it, but the mechanics in the gameplay which I have to experience majority of the time has ruin this experience.

    Game Price:

    EA has done it again. Every time that any game releases under this organization they somehow, someway scheme a plan to make the most out of the consumer instead of providing them great content and great quality for the money. I paid $76 for the deluxe edition of the game, what did I get? I received a garbage skin for BD-1 and another garbage skin for the Mantis. It's fine and I understand why the game is worth $60, majority of games that are now released fall within that price range especially when we were speaking about a game that is affiliated with Star Wars. But that does not justify the bundle that we as consumers are receiving from you the game creators and game developers. This game does not feel like $60, it's unfortunate that I am such a Star Wars fan and I fell for this trap. My advice for those reading this is to save your money and wait for it to be released as a free game on PlayStation or rent it out at Redbox or get the game on Game Fly.

    Summary:
    If you like Star Wars and are only interested in knowing the story, please look up a compilation video on YouTube of just cut scenes. Don't waste your money on a game in this condition, if you do want to play this game please wait 2 to 3 months so that updates can be worked on because in its current condition you were going to be very upset and unhappy with your decision.

    I tried to leave a very detailed review, this is my first review that I've ever done. I hope that someone takes what I said into consideration and help someone making the right decision and I look forward to hearing from anyone's feedback regarding my review.

    Thank you.    … Expand

    The level design makes no sense at all. This game wants to be Tomb Raider but in Tomb Raider, you don't end up in front of a puzzle to start it, realise you don't have all the force abilities required to finish it, go somewhere else and then get back to the puzzle. I did not play for 2 days, when I got back, it was just a nightmare just to remember what to do, because the game does not tell exactly what to do, I don't want a game to hold me by the hand but at least be clear about the reason why we are here in the first place.

    Everything is VAGUE, it's a nightmare. And there are like 3 or 4 light saber fight, what is this ? This is a suppose to be a STAR WARS GAME, light saber fights should be ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT THING TO DO IN A STAR WARS GAME !!!!!!!!!! NOT WANDERING AROUND IN A TOMB WITHOUT ANY REAL OBJECTIVE !!!!!!!!!!!!

    I won't even talk about the story, what story? There's no story. Oh yes, there is a ex-jedi knight that decided to withdraw from the force (WHAT ??????????????? ISN'T THE FORCE SUPPOSE TO BIND ALL LIVING THINGS AND...OH NEVER MIND !!!!! )

    I tried and tried and tried and tried to play this game, but now after 4 tries of more than an hour each, I just can't stand this game more than 30 minutes because of HOW BAD IT IS,

    it's DULL, it's VAGUE, it's EMPTY, it DOES NOT KNOW WHAT GAME IT SHOULD BE, it's A COMPLETE WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY, it's ONE OF THE WORST GAME I'VE EVER PLAYED.

    The worst thing is that, I did not encounter bugs or any other stuff that could explain my reaction, there are no bugs from what I've saw but the LEVEL DESIGN IS SO BAD, you feel you are turning in circles all the time, you feel that you don't move FORWARD.

    The second time I played, I realised after an hour that I had forgotten what my objective was, IT NEVER HAPPENED IN ANY OTHER GAMES I'VE PLAYED IN 21 YEARS and not because there is not a written indication BUT BECAUSE OF THE LEVEL DESIGN AS YOU ARE GOING BACK AND FORTH AND BACK AND FORTH AND BACK AND FORTH YOU END UP NOT KNOWING ANYMORE WHY YOU WERE HERE IN THE FIRST PLACE AND WHAT YOU ARE SUPPOSE TO DO IT'S INSANE !!!!!!!

    This game should be taught in gaming school for its superiorly bad level and game design, it's full of mistakes, they have invented the Deus Ex Machina Gameplay concept it's INSANE.

    Other things that makes no sense at all :

    - Ennemies respawn if you medidate ON ANY DIFFICULTY LEVEL , WHAT IS THIS ? WHO THOUGHT THIS WAS A GOOD IDEA ???????????? It's immersion breaking and it's infuriating, you rest to get your life back ONLY TO HAVE TO LOSE IT AGAIN OHH WHAT A BRILLANT IDEA !!!!!!

    - The holomap is unreadable , it's as VAGUE as the rest of the game

    - The way the character remembers his abilities is COMPLETLY RIDICULOUS, it gives that feeling of a Deus Ex Machina Gameplay that I talked about before, IT'S THE WORST IDEA EVER.

    The rule is pretty simple in game design : DON'T PUT YOUR PLAYER IN FRONT OF A PROBLEM THEY CAN'T RESOLVE YET BECAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE THE ABILITY TO !!!!!
    THIS GAME IS THE FIRST ONE TO NOT RESPECT THAT RULE AND LOOK WHAT IT ENDS UP BEING : A COMPLETE WASTE !!!!

The biggest thing going for the game is probably the combat system with the light saber strikes being mostly satisfying although the light saber sounds could do with some more work. I am dying for a game like starwars battle front 2 (2005). A proper starwars rpg set in the fallen order time frame would be ideal, like say cyberpunk 2077 but starwars if you get what i mean, how cool would that be! Anyway i might stick with death stranding for now and play this on the side. Hopefully there will be a full fledged starwars rpg one day because that would be exciting! Imagine being able to play as darth vader in the time where he was eliminating jedi when order 66 was executed. I can only dream i suppose.… Expand

Hit boxes of enemies are absolute magic. Dodging and rolling are bad too. This game is not interesting neither on hard, nor on easy. Enemies are just stupid rats half of the time, which somehow are stronger the jedi and quicker than jedi. Parkour is the worst part of the game. 1) Puzzles in game are boring and not needed. They are worst than tomb raider. 2) Parkour is just bugged. You often see some place where you should do some jump... and this jump sometimes happen from 10th-20th times. And not because you can't do it, but just because it is stupid and buggy and your hero is not catching everytime when he should. Or maybe because noone tested them more than once. Story is boring. Graphic is not bad, but nothing impressive. PS4 loading time are enormous. Better play it on easy, cos every death is 2-3 mins of loading time, anyway nothing interesting is there except trying to parry bugged hits from mele. Zones are extremely boring and empty. They are looking the same way as Dragon Age Inquisition. If you liked Inquisition, than you will like this game too. Loot in this game... it just doesn't exist. Everything you find are skins for various stupid things in the game. The only noticable is color of the droid and color of the lightsabber. Absolutely no other items exist.

    I can't understand what is happening with EA single games. Why they are doing them at all if they have no clue what to do. Both Bioware and Respawn are doing some mediocre single player games. Than EA are saying that games as a service are more profitable. Of course... no one want to play such junks. Ubisoft are doing boring game too, repetitive sometimes, but at least gameplay is fine in their games and somehow games are completed and not looking as stupid demo. I don't want to blame that EA is the reason for stupid single player games, but somehow this is happening again and again and again...

    PS I would advice no one to buy this game at least if it is not on sales. How it have that high score, I don't know. I don't want to say that people don't have rights for their own opinion, but if someone is saying that customizing skin of your lightsaber is interesting and give to game 10 out of 10, better don't believe. Except if you think that changing skin of lightsaber is the most interesting gameplay in 2019. I have some feeling that all 10s reviews are payed, because most of them are just pure lie, neither bugs are fixed, nor nothing.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is tedious much too overrated and exhausting to play... I will tell you why: Firstly, the storytelling and cutscenes etc. is really nice, it reminds me of typical star wars games the atmosphere is ok etc... BUT: at least with mouse and keyboard its about unplayable.. first there are only decent savepoints, and you have only small amounts of stim packs (healing), every time you fail you have to restart from 15 minutes ago, secondly, the movings and animations are annoying, sometimes, your jedi character moves as lazy as a 20ton truck, I don't know why, but some movements when pressing evade or parrying are just not recognised or coming too late. Its just so frustrating. Then, there is unnecessarey respawn of enemies each time you take a rest. Then, the game just does not tell you anything about game mechanics... once I came to a savepoint and I thought there is autosave, nobody told me I had to interact with the save point (aka mediation point) to save the game at this point! I thought it was not necessary coz I had enough health, but the next time I died, I started at the first savepoint at the beginning of the game earlier... its just soo annoying. You really see that people at lucasarts obviously had no intensions to fine-tune this game and test it till the end. You sometimes get the impression you are a stupid betatester. Imho, wait for the next 3 patches and don't waste your time on this frustrating piece of shi*… Expand

Here's my breakdown:

    Gameplay: 4/10
    The controls feel a bit awkward, and you can't adjust the controller sensitivity. Also, when the character moves through the environment, it feels like he's programmed to essentially be a straight line perpendicular to the ground, and when you turn, it just changes the angle of the line. It makes for an odd experience and it always feels like you're anchored to the ground and slave to some strange set of non-newtonian physics. The combat is alright, the respawns are painful.

    Presentation: 3/10
    You'll notice right out of the gate that the graphics for characters are noticably worse than the environments/effects, particularly when it comes to facial animations. It looks like they hired all the animators from Mass Effect Andromeda. Faces look low resolution and lifeless on most humans, although the alien characters seemed to look much better. The only reason the Empire soldiers look good is because they're wearing helmets. Also, this is a light saber combat game that doesn't include full limb dismemberment, which is pretty weak. Textures in general seem to be hit an miss, but many of them look like they are from the ps3 era.

    Story 2/10
    So for a single player game with so much source material to work from, the writing/dialog/story for this game is a steaming turd sandwich. You start off as a scrapper working with your buddy on crashed imperial ships from a recent conflict, oh but you're also a padawan, which you may or may not have been aware of, and your friend may or may not have been your jedi master, but it doesn't matter because he dies about 40 minutes into the game right as your starting to like him. Then theres a sith lord who couldn't tell you were a Jedi at first, despite their entire reason for being involved in the story is to find/hunt jedi's. So you run from this sith lord and while walking on top of some super futuristic monorail made out of metal grates, a ship flies up next to you, a bug eyed black lady opens the landing ramps, says she's your friend and she'll help, then that ship flies off. You reach the predictable end of the train level just in time to have that ship come and save you from certain doom. At this point bug eyed black lady basically reads you the cliff notes for the first several chapters of the games story. She's a rebel leader, and you know each other or at least she knows you, although its not explained why you would be working as a scrapper when you have contacts in the rebel alliance and you're actively being hunted. A talented writer would have written multiple nuanced interactions and dialogues that could have slowly brought you up to speed while letting you identify with, and become attached to these new characters. A talented writer was nowhere near this project. In about 5 minutes of exposition, Cera, the rebel lady basically just dumps out all the bullet points of who you are and why your here, and she does so in a way that's pretty painful. It looks like the same approach to the scripts for recent star wars movies was utilized for this game, which means dialogue is painfully simplistic and lacking any nuance or subtlety. It was written so that it translates easily to chinese and languages from other countries where Disney is trying to establish the franchise, and as a result, it has the quality of a script written by 5 year olds.

    On balance, the game is highly derivative and spends more time trying to channel the spirit of Tomb Raider and Dark Souls than it does evoking the spirit of the Star Wars universe. It fails at almost everything that KOTOR succeeded at leaving players feeling like they were trampled by a brand stamp rather than given a chance to participate in a fictional world.

    Sure, the game is pretty, and the story seems decent, but I can't subject myself to this torture anymore. The combat system in this game is absolute trash. Now, don't get me wrong, I'm all about a game that is not only difficult, but provides me with a challenge to where I actually feel myself getting better the more I play, but this game does not provide such an experience. The combat inSure, the game is pretty, and the story seems decent, but I can't subject myself to this torture anymore. The combat system in this game is absolute trash. Now, don't get me wrong, I'm all about a game that is not only difficult, but provides me with a challenge to where I actually feel myself getting better the more I play, but this game does not provide such an experience. The combat in this game is awful, and the odd thing about it, is that this is an intentional game design. They literally made the combat terrible on purpose. Dodging does absolutely nothing. Why add a dodge feature when you still get hit no matter what? Taking on multiple enemies is just atrocious to experience. Why? Not because the game is a challenge and I should just "get gud", but because the combat was clearly designed for one-on-one encounters. The field of view provides no vision of anything around you, so when an enemy leaps at you and goes behind you, they can immediately recover and hit you in the back, without you even having time to dodge in a certain direction to avoid this happening. And of course, as I said before, even if you do dodge to make sure you don't get hit in the back, it will still happen. The target lock system is an absolute joke. Targeting enemies is useless because the game will randomly unlock from targets during combat, so when you finally find that open moment where you can strike your enemy, you'll just miss because the target-lock disengaged. And when enemies slightly exit your field of view, the target-lock will just disengage again. This makes combat an absolute absurdity. The fact that I have to lock onto targets to even swing in the correct direction, the fact that when I dodge I still get hit (no matter the direction of my dodge nor the magnitude), the fact that the game just randomly decides to disengage combat while I'm being attacked, the fact that the game pits you against multiple enemies when the combat clearly wasn't designed for such encounters brings me to believe that this game just doesn't deserve a high rating. I haven't even mentioned the navigation. Jumping from platform to platform is an absolute chore, not only because you'll be pressing the jump button every two seconds, but because the character misses the platforms, ropes, edges, rails, etc. constantly, no matter what you do. This is because the camera is extremely inconveniently oriented and also because the jump distance is just barely enough to get you to most of the objects you'll be climbing onto. The game also gets a bad score from me because it doesn't even do a good job of explaining the combat system or the navigation system. It just expects you to figure it out, which, for a Star Wars game where you're literally playing as a Jedi that's already been trained, you'd think it would at least give you a good idea of what to do, but it provides no such service. I can't tell you how many times I had to go through the settings and look at the controls just to figure out what in the world was even happening with my controller. The controls make no sense and are completely different from any other game in this genre and the fact that it pits you against enemies that you haven't even learned the skill yet to take them on properly is just atrocious. I don't expect hand-holding, but I at least expect the game to make sense. You're a properly trained Jedi and you can't even use Force Push at the beginning. Apparently you can freeze objects and enemies, and sense the memories of objects by touching them, but you can't Force Push. Makes absolutely zero sense. If you want my advice, don't get this game, it's just not worth it. If you want the story, watch someone stream it or watch gameplay, but just don't give this developer your money, because this game could have been designed better by a five year old.… Expand

    The game boils down to you being able to hit a button to block / parry at the right time, redoing levels to artificially extend the game length to go to areas you couldn't to get a different color poncho or something that literally has no impact other than being a cosmetic change.

    Would it really have been so hard to have some of the gear give bonus' like +5 attack, +5 HP for the effort of getting the crates?

    Weakest / limited Jedi / Padawan ever. Want to jump up to a ledge just above you - half the time you can and half you cannot. I'm talking like a few feet and you can't do it.

    Rewards are laughable - spend time to get to a hard crate just to get a cosmetic change like a poncho. The only true gear upgrade is the double bladed lightsaber operates slightly differently for large numbers of enemies apparently.

    Most Jedi powers are blah. If you want to play a game to experience being a Jedi - this isn't it.

    His special ability is some ability to glimpse a past event. So you will find these blue shimmering things to connect with it and hear " this person died here" or "there was a fight here". Seriously - lmfao?

    The purpose of these is to gain experience so you can get upgraded force powers that are so so at best.

    They make part of levels inaccessible so you have to do them over to get to some crate that was inaccessible earlier in the game just to get "a new paint job for the Mantis - your ship". An over used method for games to make it seem like there is more content than there actually is.

    Not very open world - very strict / limited to the path you will be taking. I kept thinking of Galaxy Quest when Sigorney Weaver would say "what is the purpose of this stuff in a ship when there were flames and chompers - the writers need to be shot" - the level design is set for plat former but that just really pushes the player away from the immersion as it's just too out there to be realistic on how you have to advance. Stormtrooper losses having to jump and skip around their base must have been enormous.

"Here are some planets you can choose from but unless you choose the linear path, you won't be able to progress because you don't have the powers yet to bypass huge glowing red obstacles". how is that fun? how can anyone think it's entertaining to have to go back and try to find all the places you couldn't access the first around only to find useless things most all of which have no bearing on the game play itself. For example, lightsaber handles? It's gotta be one of the worst and again insulting attempts at giving one the impression they can customize their gear. Ponchos? Colors for your ship which you almost never look at? Switches for your lightsaber? at what point would I even be able to really see and appreciate my ability to change the color of my lightsaber switch?

    There should be a rule that you can't include a workbench in a game unless they players can actually craft something, not just change cosmetics half of which aren't really noticeable the entire game while the other half are different colored ponchos.

    The animation and movement really made me feel like I was playing an early PS3 game. it's clunky, counteriintuitive, and just bad. They did reproduce the awkward demeanor of the actor judging by his performance in Shameless. It just really is so so so overdone and not fun. So sick and tired of trying to jump onto a platform, falling, running back and trying again, falling running back and trying again. Why would EA think that's enjoyable? I can only assume the game is getting those higher reviews because of the franchise.

    We are soooooo long overdue for a True, Actual and Immersive open world action/rpg Star Wars game. More genuine abilities, not having to use the force to make a quick dodge to the left or right so that i can boot the enemy doing practically damage. A force ability shouldn't have to be wasted on
    increases to your force meter or health. Leveling up should handle that and points should be save for real skills that really change up play style.

    I agree with others that it tries to incorporate elements from the Souls series except it doesn't pull it off half as well. I also agree with others about the ridiculous loading time when you die, especially having just played Death Stranding, a game with much more data, incredible graphics, amazing movement mechanics and yet takes about 6 seconds to load the screen for just about anything.

    The game is overdone, annoying if not infuriating at times and just plain sucks. This seems like it's little more than EA needing a revenue influx for it 's board members and figures they can turn a quick buck by slapping a Star Wars theme on a washed out version of Uncharted, Prince of Persia, Metroid like game with tiny hints of a Souls game.

    In fact, I own literally hundreds of games on my PS4 and am obviously pretty opinionated and yet it I just now made my metacritic account only to review this game. It's just so frustrating to be reminded that though we've come so far in gaming, that stupid rehashed games like this are still being cranked out. Enough already, we don't need to waste Waaaay too much time jumping onto ledges covered in bird droppings, climbing left or right along a wall, traversing a pipe that bears no risk and is just a different looking pathway or again, having to jump to grab a rope after an icy slip and slide or wait, even more challenging, jumping from one rope to another. These things a good game does not make. Only quick cash for EA Games. Wait till it's released for free on PS Plus, and even that might be paying too much. I gave it a one only because of nostalgia in being able to see the name star wars. that's it.    … Expand

    Fraco demais. Esperava mais do game. Real em pegar esse tosco de Dark Souls pra fazer tudo hoje em dia. Fora ainda que o jogo é uma mistura mal feita de Uncharted e Assassin's Creed. Juntaram várias gameplays diferentes e não deu meio jogo. Uso da Força também é muito tosca e sem graça

    Much of the game is pulled from UC2, which is 10 years old now. It was marketed as a souls-like or something like Sekiro but it's far more casual and the character models are not as good as in games like Death Stranding or other top PlayStation games. The characters are also very bland and I did not care much about what actually happened.

    Basically its uncharted with some mild assassin's creed. What is with all these games where you have to constantly climb? It's too much. I want to play a game, not scale some mystery mountain every 5 minutes. Really bad.

    Awesome game, i mean... for a Star Wars Game. So, it's good but don't worth the $60, maybe you should get it at >$30

    Any game without controller sensitivity settings - trash.
    Any game with full black loading screen - trash.
    Clunky movements.
    Terrible camera movements.
    Enemies combat AI is stupid.
    Serious frame drops - on console?!
    Simply a trash - with ridiculous hype.

    Glitchy game play and slow to respond control inputs absolutely ruined this game! I was enjoyed it for the first 2 hours, however the controls issues and glitched out gameplay make this game near impossible to enjoy. Trying to use a force power and time a jump properly with choppy graphics and laggy control responses is awful!!

    If your looking for a hack and slash Jedi game, this is not for you...this is more of an expiration, puzzle solving game with combat sprinkled in. This is a game built around needing near perfect timing, but with laggy control responses this game is near unplayable!!    … Expand

    If you get over a slower start without powers, we can assure you, that it will only get better and better. An entertaining mix of Uncharted, Tomb Raider and Dark Souls set in the Star Wars universe. You don’t have to worry; the game is worth its full price. [Issue#300]

    As someone with limited time to play games, the shame of Fallen Order stems from multiple frustrations. It’s hard to fight and, worse, it’s hard to move. The game’s timing issues distracted me from both the story and the beautifully constructed worlds; I was too focused on simply staying alive. My many (many, many, many) deaths discouraged me from exploring worlds — all of them beautiful — as did the simple fact that traveling by foot (even a Jedi’s Force-enhanced feet) takes forever.

    Respawn has shown us, and EA, that single player games are well enough alive and kicking and has set a bright future for the Star Wars franchise of videogames if they keep this up.
