    Way too many frustrating glitches that make me want to play any other game than it. Average combat with fun ways to solve puzzles that get old very quickly, ranges from stupidly easy puzzles to needlessly complicated. Cringe!

    The bugs make this adventure unfathomably tedious at times. Though both the story and gameplay were trite, they were good enough to deliver a decent experience. It's disappointing that it barely added anything meaningful to the Star Wars universe we all know and love but what else can you expect from a developer that is known for making first-person shooters?

    Tedious platform game. Horrible save point system. Enemies regenerate after every save. You have to explore to find things, but most of what you find is just cosmetic and doesn't improve your weapon. To add to this frustration, some areas are impossible to go back to. $14 is the maximum I would pay for this. Games should be fun, not frustrating

    I didn't finish the game because of infuriating gameplay. Spent most of the time dying, falling off ledges and also missing the ropes. And combat is kluncky. The game looks great and has cool story but I do not have the patience for it.

    I don’t normally quit games. There’s only 3 games I put down before completing, this is one of them. Just about everything in this game is infuriating. When I first picked it up it was my 5th or 6th playstation game I’d ever played. I put it down and played a ton more games. I decided to come to this hoping I’d have gotten better at games and the Playstation in general. NOPE!

    This is the    I don’t normally quit games. There’s only 3 games I put down before completing, this is one of them. Just about everything in this game is infuriating. When I first picked it up it was my 5th or 6th playstation game I’d ever played. I put it down and played a ton more games. I decided to come to this hoping I’d have gotten better at games and the Playstation in general. NOPE!

    This is the second game where I lowered the difficulty and only the first game where I then KEPT the difficulty at the easiest level, and I did this after picking the game back up after months of playing and beating other games.

    What’s so difficult? Let me count the ways:

    1) COMBAT I can’t parry or block, almost ever! Regular enemies are like bosses in their power when on second difficulty. Even the easiest difficulty some are super difficult. At least I can get to a save point and restore health right……?

    2) HEALTH Meditation regains your health but respawns all the enemies so more often then not, having to get back to the ship means going through the same extremely difficult challenge! It makes moving so slow and difficult! I could get more health stims but many of these are so hard to get to, it’s like an entire level just to reach it, multiple climbing challenges and puzzles and enemies and trying to find your way through the maze-like location. Maybe having a map would help…..?

    3) MAP The map is garbage! It’s semi transparent for all areas you’ve been too, all overlapping each other and their all in a blueprint format so all areas have the same color and texture. You have to figure out by shape where things are and where you’ve been. It still doesn’t show you where collectibles are nor does it show you areas you haven’t been to. There’s no way to know those areas exist unless you somehow can navigate through the maze of a world, battling countless near impossible enemies to find them. There’s also no way point for objectives other than yellow markers for where you can start to enter an area you haven’t been, green highlighted objects for shortcuts you have to find on your own and the ship. It’d be so much better to fast travel…..

    4) NO FAST TRAVEL When you finish the main storyline, you have to walk/run all the way back, usually having to fight the same enemy as you had already fought. And hopefully remember the way you got there because the map isn’t helpful in the world is quite the maze, occasionally you can’t even go back the way you came down. But really with all the parkour it should be fun to get back on foot….

    5) PARKOUR / TRAVERSAL As I said, getting back is painful enough with the enemies and trying to figure out where you are and need to go. I’ll add here that when going from the start of the map you’ll have several areas you slide down. It’s near impossible to steer myself. I’m always flying off! And I’ve beaten Mario Cart 8 Deluxe! I’ve beaten the mini races in the Mafia games and Rage 2. I can steer, okay?? Just not in this damn game. 6) Graphics looked okay at first on my original PS4 but after playing other games like Hellblade and Last of Us 2… these graphics have frayed edges all over the place. Facial animations are lacking. The character design sometimes looks REALLY phoned in like our lead characters childhood trainer. The game freezes at certain parts ALL the time. It’s one of the longest to load games I’ve ever played (which sucks when I keep dying!)

    It’s just really NOT a fun game. I am only playing it now to complete it so I don’t feel I waste of my money. But I’m not having a good time. I’m not even trying to follow the story anymore. Most of the time it’s on mute while I listen to a podcast or something else to keep my rage at bay.

    Screw this game.

    PS: The opening scene was incredibly fun! The first 15 - 20 minutes are greatly missed and feel like they were designed by someone else entirely.    … Expand

Хотя рубишь не совсем правильное слово, потому что световой меч почему то никого не рубит и ситуация когда ты лупишь штурмовика пока у него не кончится стамина случается постоянно. Боссы отдельная тема, кроме жира у них нет ничего. несколько абилок между которыми ты пытаешься пробить их блок и нанести урон, так проходят все битвы с ними. Персонажи картонные, кроме капитана корабля и ведьмы интереса следить за ними нет никакого. Сюжета можно сказать нет, просто летаешь по планетам, рубишь все живое, потом улетаешь, находишь что то и опять возвращаешься. Планеты разнообразные, но их мало и на самом планете всё из одних и тех же ассетов склеено, в итоге когда второй раз возвращаешься уже хочется скорее оттуда свалить.Всю игру с тобой ходит робот, который может три вещи: лечить, взламывать врагов и двери и открывать сундуки. При этом если ты хочешь хила, то нужно стоять как вкапанный, иначе можно пол часа просить его о хиле, но фиг там, убьют быстрее. Сундуки это просто сказка, куча раскрасок для пончо, корабля, робота....все они ничем кроме цвета не отличаются, бафов никаких нет и не понятно нафиг это вообще нужно, кроме того чтобы продлить прохождение тем, кто любит собрать всё.

The only cool parts were the sith fights, seeing darth Vader, and controlling the AT-AT

    They use a medication point as a checkpoint. So even tho you enter a cutscenes it doesn't save. Only that stupid medication poi t is your checkpoint. And it's not like you see it everywhere. You barely see it and then u can die fast because they give you very little health and only 2 atoms that has an animation in healing like it's last of us.

    This game is so not for me.

    What I did like:
    - BD-1
    - Comes free with EA Play subscription
    - backtracking

    What I didn't like:
    - bugs, glitchy, boring combat
    - characters
    - story is basically erased with the ending
    - voiceover
    - you collect freaking ponchos
    - the collectibles don't add to the game
    - boring platforming
    - you have few moves in combat, every better move requires the force

    Controls are super unresponsive!!! The main combat strategy is to parry but it feels extremely sluggish and slow and many times I’ve requested a stim (health regeneration) and the command goes unheard. For a triple A title all they’ve done is still loads of elements from other game mainly dark souls and implemented into a boring and predictable star wars story. Visuals are amazing though

    Short version: This is a mediocre button-mashing arcade nightmare that doesn't even have the common decency to wrap any kind of interesting story or characters around the core gameplay. This game already exists 1000 times over, and has probably been done 1000 times better. The only difference you're getting here is the "Star Wars" label & some slightly Star Wars-ish skins to go over top of the steaming mediocrity.

    A little more detail (but not too much because any time spent on this game is a WASTE):
    It's a pure platformer. For those (like me) who were hoping we'd get something more akin to KOTOR, you will be massively disappointed.

    The story that goes along with this game is flat out boring and superficial, straight out of the "Disney SW for Dummies" manual . Every silly cliche you can think of is smashed together in a haphazard way that ends up giving you a really bad taste in your mouth. Because of the childish and trite story, the characters you interact with are just not that interesting...before any "reveals" happen, you already know their backstory and you also already know the big "OMG" surprises that are to come...and yes, they suck.

    After the disaster of a story, there's not really that much left to talk about. Gameplay is boring and overdone. As many have said, Uncharted and other games have done many of these mechanics better. There's nothing new here and nothing that's actually done well here. Graphics are ok but nothing special, and most of the controls are just clunky. I couldn't even finish this game because it was just so damn boring

    Final verdict...I can usually kind of let this kind of thing slide and say meh whatever, boring, mediocre game, don't waste your time. BUT...the way EA marketed this trash and the way it soils an already hurting yet beloved Star Wars universe is the final kick in the b*lls that makes me say no, this is trash and EA should be lambasted (again) for doing this kind of crap to people. This is an obvious "let's get cash" hacked-together piece of garbage that takes advantage of SW fans who have been hurting for some GOOD material for a while. Screw EA, Star Wars fans deserve better than this steaming turd    … Expand

    This game has great visuals and can feel great but as a video game it has no ambitions and accomblish nothing. Every aspect of the game is ripped off from dark souls or shikura shadows die twice and done so poorly. the story is simple and forgettable.

    there can be a great atmosphere and the lightsabers look cool but that is it. the way this game works is that you can travel to different "planets" and then explore the place and do missions. The maps are designed so that you can go to these save points and doing this will reset any enemies in their original positions (perhaps the worst decision in any game ever, it completely breaks immersion and makes no sense in the world) the combat is simplistic, parry and slash and done. it got boring quick and the game has ABSOLUTELY ZERO replayability. play this once or twice and you have seen it all.

    The lightsaber is the most important thing in any star wars game and in this one it can feel pretty good, you can design it yourself (quite late in the game in my opinion) you have no decision in whether you want a double lightsaber, witch i found to be a childish weapon. Here´s the kicker though, all the parts of the lightsaber are based on a real world experience in disney world or something like that wich gives it a bad commercial feel to it, and it makes you look for parts in the worlds which is a chore to do because of the **** level design.

    Story is quiet boring and not very interesting to me, but that would have been ok but YOU CANNOT SKIP CUTSCENES
    Very **** from the devs. They also hide the loading screen between planet with very boring and poor dialogue.
    The combat would be good if the enemies were not target locking you following you as you dash aside and still get you. This makes for a very broken combat system where you can ( 2 left click to hit enemy and then right click BACK) and that will take care of ALL the enemies. Every single enemy will let you hit them twice ( with blocking or not)
    The blocking stamina of enemies regenerates to FULL every time you deplete it, making you repeat the whole process to remove another tiny part of their health. Just repetitive.

    The level design is 'ok" maps are pretty straight forward so there is absolutely no exploring around. There are no resources to collect etc, just kill things.

    Overall ONLY buy if you are a MASSIVE FAN and want to bend down for more story. That is it.

    WOW!!
    I didn't expect this trash even from EA. So much bad It's hard to know where to start. First of all, the game is hard...but that's not really a criticism...just an observation; nor its it much of a problem seeing as it has difficulty settings. The good: nothing really atands out here. The bad: clunky controls, bad camera angles you'll have to fight with throughout,    WOW!!

The ugly: it tries to imitate Dark Souls with save points, svae points really?! Is this 1998 all of a sudden? And your character UGH! I have to play as a dumb bumbling ginger ugly kid joe? Why? I wanted to be a cool Jedi not some dumb weak kid whom I hated from the moent I saw him and despite trying to like him just couldn't

    Wow! What a lame game. Lousy gameplay. Feels like platform game from the 90's. The game mechanics and battle system is complete garbage... Even Star Wars games are B-class now at best

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Pros
    + sound
    + lightsaber customization
    + Cool transitions between single and dualwielded lightsabers
    + BD-1

    Cons
    - Blocking system
    - Basic movement
    - Character and ship customization are just reskins with no details (looting chests is just useless)
    - Story is linear
    - Characters are flat and poorly written
    - Unecessary jumping and climbing sequences with buggy controls
    - Fauna is buggy with undodgable attacks (if you can you want to avoid it)
    - Load times on respawn are way too long (Played of PS5 and encountered more than 2 minutes loads)
    - Fighting more enemies at once is just infuriating (they always interrupt your combo)
    - Fights are very repetitive
    - Behind every second corner there is an enemy who attacks on sight
    - Unskippable cutscenes

    It is Uncharted and Sekiro ripoff, but all the things that make these games great are done very poorly. The climbing is buggy and the game forces you to walk/climb the same path several times over. I am not a fan of the bonfire/meditation mechanic.

    If this wasn't a Star Wars game it would have at most 60.

    This game is difficult and I don't mean challenging, I don't mind challenge, I finished Kingdome Come Deliverance on Hardcore with all negative perks. It is so infuriating trying to block some attacks and the attack still goes through. It ruins the pace of the game and you have to stick to the most basic combos which just gets boring. Once you get L1 Square combo there is no point in using anything else.

    It looked so promising but it's a disapointment.    … Expand

This is not it. While the story is slightly above average, and the voice acting and motion capture brings the characters to life, that is where the praise ends for Fallen Order. The traversal is clunky and infuriating, with Cal making crazy leaps and falls off into oblivion and respawning with a slightly lower health bar, akin to the Legend of Zelda but without the charm or tact. The save point system is ridiculous and outdated, suitable for MMORPG's that require grinding of monsters, not a single player story driven RPG. The lightsaber combat is nice and satisfying-if you are facing a single enemy, which is about 20% of the time. Boss fights are boring and unsatisfying, with dark souls-esque gimmicks and patterns, but the overall lack of refinement makes it feel unsatisfying and unrewarding. I felt myself plodding through, just trying to get to the next area to see if the game miraculously started being fun. News flash, it didn't. Do not buy this game. Get a month of EA Play, give it a go for a few days until the charm of lightsaber customization and cute robots wears off, then put it down and move on to something better.… Expand

    The 1 only come from the fact that the fights are pleasent, but the bossfights are generaly deceiving. There's only PONCHOS and the characters seems pretty emotionless. The fight, that are the only good things, are rare, otherwise it's just platform, puzzles and useless collectibles. It's just a 40$ bad platforming game. Don't play it.

    I found this game an absolute chore to play with all the backtracking through the very bland environments and with its unfun combat. After a long time of being patient I case it gets better (it never did) I was disappointed to find out that I was about to finish the game which put me off so much that I ended up not finishing it and deleting it since I hated playing it

    Boring story, too much backtracking, boring, stiff combat, boring platforming and puzzles trying to make up for it, I'd rather have boring combat than utter trash puzzles, this game's a cash-grab and it's just a way to steal money. "What if EA made a singleplayer game?" game.

No sense of map exploring because mostly you just get an additional poncho or a color for a robot. They introduce "bonfires" but don't give you teleport so you can just get lost on the planet.

    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.
