    The good: Story (although i'm not at all a SW fan i kinda liked it), visuals and art direction, the various planets, puzzles, enemy designs
    Not that good: Fighting (annoying enemy attacks), platforming (mostly jumping and grabbing ledges).
    Bad: Constant frame rate drops and some times the textures don't load in time.

    Una excelente jugabilidad, muy divertida y constantemente en cambio, un arbol de habilidades bueno, sin embargo un punto malo es la historia que no es atractiva, la musica obviamente es muy buena, los jefes son retantes.

    기존에 나왔던 다크소울이나 세키로의 전투를 스타워즈에 접목. 전체적으로 흠잡을 곳 없는 게임이지만 캐넌이라 그런지 무난하게만 흘러가는 스토리가 살짝 아쉽다. 이해는 가지만 역시 불편하기는한 빠른 이동의 부재도..

    Lara Drake: Souls Wars
    A massive corporation taking a tried and true formula and the most popular pop-culture franchise in history and they STILL manage to ruin it.
    Fallen Order is a Tomb Raider and Uncharted rip-off where you happen to fight with a sword with a blade made out of light. It took me a couple of years to commit to buying this game and I'm glad I only paid around $20.00

    It took me a couple of years to commit to buying this game and I'm glad I only paid around $20.00 for it.
    The positive is that its a single player Star Wars game and at times its pretty to look at, but that's it.
    There are 2 overarching issues with this game, and if there was better play testing and quality control at EA this game would have been much better.
    1) The protagonist is awful. He's boring and utterly uninteresting; AND
    2) The combat. Holy Jesus f'n Christ the combat is atrocious. Its so badly optimized it renders the game unplayable. I am a veteran of the SoulsBorne games and Sekiro, and Respawn has blatantly plagiarized the gameplay and it is as clear as day they have no f'n clue what they are doing.
    This game is such a shame, such a crying shame, they should have rebooted Force Unleashed and made a more action oriented game, instead of ripping off gameplay perfected by FromSoft.
    Honorable mentions are the onerous, boring puzzles and shoddy platforming and traversal.
    The bright side of this god-awful game is that it has intrinsically changed how I view video games. As soon as they start to suck, as this did in about the second level, I delete it, sell it and move on.

    Much better than it had to be. More narratively coherent than 90% of all other games. A quite striking portrayal-demonstration of the personal sacrifice, dedication and practice required to become more personally masterful. Unusual acknowledgement of "failure as part of the process."

    The gameplay takes you on a very long arc of user competency. You either up your own game skills; or, you get stuck and can't move forward. This competency arc if finely tuned and rises at the end above the skills of average players (like me).
    Its voice acting is above average. It's ambiance of Tomb Raider meets Uncharted in space was a plus for me.
    On the down side is you may find the cycle of the same 12 things to do a little harder next time tedious. Fortunately the story and how combat evolves make it worthwhile. Towards the end a few TRULY EPIC confrontations, one with a giant bat-mouse.
    Looking at the pro critics who disliked this, my bet is they did not finish the game, only played the first few hours on story mode. Play on a harder setting; make it easier towards the end; that's how it's designed.
    As a writer I have a hard time conceiving of where this story could be taken for a sequel.

    Although the maps are not that big and there are not that many places to go after completing the story, It is still just fun to collect all the secrets hidden in places you missed while playing the story.

    The story unfolds nicely and sticks to its characters and their personality. Some characters could have a bit more layers but overall very nice. I recommend this game for a fun story game, even if you have not watched Star wars.

    Gameplay is a mixture of Uncharted like platforming/puzzles with fun lightsabre combat. Some of the cinematic gameplay is epic, there's a few sequences in particular that will live long in the memory. Some of the puzzles are actually challenging! There was a few times when I was scratching my head but got there eventually.

    Combat and character growth is done really well. Instead of levelling like most RPG's you only grow your character by learning new skills (some being extra health and force; what you need to use special skills). Apart from a few skills, you don't automatically gain extra 'HP' or 'strength'. I was a little sceptical at first but by the time I'd maxed Cal I was so much stronger with the use of some fantastic abilities. Using the force to knock troopers over ledges or pull them towards you for a lightsabre insta kill never got old.

    The game is naturally challenging. As a casual but PS4 veteran I went with Jedi Master difficulty (3rd highest out of 4) and the game always kept me on my toes, occasionally shouting expletives at the TV. Some of the boss fights are VERY challenging, so only choose this difficulty if you class yourself as a decent gamer. There were several bosses that took me 6 or 7 tries before I got it right, partly because healing isn't straightforward, it needs good timing. I'm glad I choose the higher difficulty but I am a determined gamer.

    The storyline is good. Characters are decent without being memorable and there's some good humour to boot. The main characters grow well throughout the game and you learn more about the adversity that they've been through in the past and how that shapes their journey.

    I won't spoil any storyline but the end sequence/storyline is absolutely jaw droopingly epic. What a shame then, that you can't replay it without going through the entire game again. With it being an autosave game, this is such a disappointing choice from the developers.

    And so to the drawbacks of the game, which I'm sorry to say are elementary and I felt worthy of deducting 2 stars. Firstly, no fast travel in a game with only 4/5 worlds that are largely linear is insane, particularly as you HAVE to revisit them all to get towards the end of each world. Yes, this means going from the start to the end at least twice, fighting the same enemies, going through the same platforming. This is CRAZY. I feel like they did this intentionally so that you progress your character but this is a lazy way of ensuring adequate levels of combat. Don't cop out and do more worlds. Most veterans will revisit anyway for collectables etc. I had my character maxed with an additional 5 unused skill points at the end, so there's no shortage of character progression (granted, I did bag all the collectables).

    Then, there's no way pointing. Couple that with the holomap (map) that's extremely difficult to navigate (imagine the classic 3D map of the umbrella company in resident evil and making that into a maze). What this means in practical terms is that it's so easy to get lost. Then, there's occasional paths you take where you can't go back, so if you take a 'wrong' turn, you have to go all the way around to get to where you were before, to try to take the 'correct' turn. This gets infuriating.

    To top things off, the game opens up 'shortcuts' as you progress through a world with the intention of saving most of the above. The only trouble is....they're not marked on the map once you've gone through them once! So you have no idea where they are.

    Another frustration is having a world where it's unclear where you can drop to and where you can't. I'd estimate I intentionally died over 100 times to see if I could drop/climb to a particular ledge. Some look identical to the ones you can. Basically, there's too much that you can't access. Fortunately dying in this fashion puts you back instantly where you were but does punish you by taking a little bit of life away.

    For a game where they got so many things right, particularly the hard stuff, like combat, characters, cinematics, music, tension etc to fall down on the very easy things of navigation and maps is unforgiveable.

    Other minor gripes include occasionally getting pinned by weak melee enemies and not being able to move/block/attack and getting tickled to death. Also on PS4 the running dynamic is terrible. You have to keep L3 pressed down and forward simultaneously to run. This is more difficult than it sounds as if you stray slightly on the button you stop running.

    Overall, a great game that's made monotonous at times by some very basic errors. This could have been 10/10.

    I generally enjoyed this adventure. At its peak the game feels and looks fantastic. The maps are super detailed and convoluted. I loved how the game tried to teach me the lore as I played - small chunks of info, well digestible. Visually it's stunning, especially the scrapyard. PS5 controller support is almost perfect.

Can't say the same about the fight mechanics though. I'm not a huge fan of Souls-likes but I feel like FO hasn't reached the same level of responsiveness. It's an animation-led fighting game which makes it hard to time your actions. Input lag is also there which makes it even more painful. I've lost too many basic fights because of how unresponsive the whole system was which felt demotivating. Also, the fact that your stamina/force level doesn't recharge all the way up unless you hit enemies and only gives you enough for one force punch/pull before you run out makes it really infuriating. I'm a jedi, let me use my force whenever I want. Cool with having to recharge it, but why limit me? Give me the ability to do cool combos whenever. Make it harder for me elsewhere.

    Knowing that there's definitely a sequel coming up, I wish they work on the fighting mechanics all whilst keeping doing a great job with their level design, traversal, puzzles and stunning landscapes.

    UPD I don't mind the story that much. It's not going to win Pulitzer for writing, but, let's face it, all SW movies had super basic narratives. Dichotomy at its purest. So all the comments shaming the game for not having a better story - valid, but kinda stupid at the same time.

All other attacks including a heavy regular attack uses stamina that takes forever just to recharge one cell. Physics:

    Physics: Trash. The physics in this game are so wobbly and loose it is beyond easy to fall off of a cliff just by walking though an area. It makes the unnecessary platforming even worse.

    Nothing about this game offers a "decent challenge". It's just poor game design.

    Only positive side to what is one of the worst Star Wars games ever is that visually it looks a decent. This slog fest is not at all worth playing a 2nd time. It's barely worth playing once.

    the story is simplistic which I don't mind. When going through the set open world it can be frustrating. the map can look confusing at times, leaving you not knowing where to go, or when revisiting. There's no fast travel, which can also be frustrating. when finishing a level you'd have to run all the way back to the ship.
    Also on new game plus, the only thing you would keep is the cosmetics. This ruins the replayability experience.
    Overall a good game, good bosses, and amazing combat

    Lara croft meets dark souls combat (if you crank the difficulty up) meets star wars theme. I enjoyed this game quite a bit but they were absolute taking the piss with how short it is. Even if you're an absolute completionist, you'll struggle to squeeze more than 20 hours of content out of it. At a £60 price tag, it needed to be be 50-100% longer.

    Masterpiece all the way to the end!! Im not a fan of star wars but this one hook me up right from the start. The gameplay system is flawless. Combat becomes addictive as soon as ypu start getting the timing and buttons right. You need to play it on jedi knight difficulty otherwise is too easy. Sometimes checkpoint system can be punishing but you learn to love that too.

    Truly underrated game by many. The title perfectly embodies the soul of Star Wars. The story is far superior to what we saw in the latest film trilogy. The sound, graphics and AI are of a high standard. The only problems are the repetitive movement with the spacecraft and the fact that it is not open world.

    This game makes using lightsaber boring somehow! The combat system is probably the most important part of the gameplay and it isn't really impressive.

    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.

    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.

    ***The Gameplay is CLunky!
    Even once you master the movement and attacking and defense= it's still clunk or sluggish..
    Maybe it's the mediocre animation in the attacks/movements i dunno.. This usually ISN'T a deal breaker and usually only cost a game score of 1 point give/take.

    ~~Setting= Well atleast they avoided the awful non-canon mdeiocre Disney sequel story..
    THIS is the problem with Disney murdering the EU/Legends.. All the great heroes & villains o the books who would be great story pieces are not available.
    ~~The Seventh Sister/Brother is 100X worse in every way compared to the original Imperial Inquisitors or Dark SIde Acolytes.
    These Dudes had fleshed out stories.
    BTW~ Many of these stories/character are from years before EPisode 1-3 prequel era books..
    They we're the popular young reader books of the 1990's that are still floating around out there..
    *Check out "The Glove of Darth Vader" ~or~ "Kenobi's Lightsaber" " Lost City of the Jedi "
    These books set the story of The Empire being alot darker and Sith like compared to the more modern Evil corporate dictatorship.

    ~Comparing this game to The Force Unleashed & Jedi Knight Games(Academy,,Outkast)
    because they are both ARPG like adventure games w/ jumping etc.

    Well The Force Unleashed is a tad more arcadey where Fallen Order tried to be more realsistic/Sim like...Well when you go realistic Sim it's ALWAYS ging to be less fun and clunky because they are removing the uber parts.. which is nonsense considering force sensitivity and a trained Jedi apprentice close to the trials at that.
    ALSO,,TheForceUnleashed played around with a "what-if" story of what-if you had a Super super force powered Jedi who was born of TWO(not 1) Jedi parents.. This is something we never had before. esp since Jedi weren't allowed to father offspring and if they didn it wouldn't be with another Jedi.

Из минусов, мне не понравилась музыка, её прям дохуя и не по теме , да и очереднярская, мало планет , не интересные лутбоксы , за которыми не хочется исследовать локации полностью, впринципе кроме кастома оружия и пончо там ничего не найдешь, кроме некоторых усилений которые редко встретишь, а, и не интересные отголоски.

    I LOVE STAR WARS, BATTLEFRONT 1 AND 2 BY EA WERE GREAT. BUT THIS GAME HAS A FEW ISSUES.

    VISUALS
    the visuals are stunning I love how this game looks, they translated characters from clone wars to this game well.

    COMBAT
    The combat is frustrating. You have to block and dodge like 4 people while trying to focus on one enemy. you get hit multiple times and die. even if you win you don't heal, and will likely die very soon after that. And with there being so few saves during the mission, you must travel to the same place over, and over, and over again. And the AI is very dumb and only has a certain radius before being reset.

    CONTROLS
    You can tell that this game was not meant for the PC. Pc controls are just outrageously bad. If you connect a controller they are tolerable, but all in all mediocre.

    STORY
    the story ties in really well with clone wars, rebels, and revenge of the sith, and does decently well on its own. the characters are....alright.

    MOVEMENT
    this may not be a regular subject but I just had to bring this to attention. Cal, the character you play feels SO SLOW. when he runs,climbs,rolls,gets up,crawls,squeezes through spaces. He just isn't exciting to play as.

    WORTH THE PRICE?
    no, it is not worth its price...now. I say if you bump the price down to at most 35, it would be worth it. And don't even think about getting the deluxe edition unless it's on sale for below $20. It's just cosmetics.

    ALL IN ALL
    it's a pretty good-looking game with a great story, just needs fixing with the game mechanics...

    Игровой процесс Fallen Order понравился, но советую играть на легком, в крайнем случае, на среднем уровне сложности, т.к. на высоком всё прохождение превращается тупое дрочево, которое убивает все фишки игры (На высоком уровне сложности, чувствуешь себя проклятым из Dark Souls, а не всемогущим джедаем. А это, неправильно).
    Игра, вообще, очень похожа на последний God of War, и это здорово.
    Графон понравился на PS4 практически нет лагов. Так же в игре нет подгрузок (Кроме Кашеика, там они, почему-то постоянно возникают, как будто не успели эту планету доработать до релиза).
    В игре много секретов, есть скрытые боссы. Одного я отыскал уже после окончания сюжета. Кстати, в игру можно продолжать играть и после прохождения сюжета, набивать очивки и т. д.
    Сюжет тоже, я думаю, не подкачал. Не противоречит основной канве вселенной Star Wars, и нормально вплетается в нее. К тому же может спокойно иметь продолжение.
    В общем, игра обязательная для поклонников серии, так же всем игрокам советую!

    - 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

Not to mention some nice customization for yourself, the ship and your lightsaber (dual wielding pink for the win).

    There were only 2 things that brought down this score a little and the main one is NO FAST TRAVEL!! Man, I woulda loved to 100% this game with all the chests and secrets you can find but with no fast travel it is an insane chore to do, bummer. Also not necessarily a bad thing per say, but the difficulty spreads are rough. I absolutely love a challenge but even on the easiest difficulty there were many frustrating moments.

    EA shocked the hell out of me with their work on this with Respawn, but now that EA owns them, one can only hope they will make a sequel. Absolutely worth a playthrough.

    Jedi Fallen Order was a game I was excited to play, I had really good hopes for it. It turned out, however, it was just an average game. Critics gave high ratings appearently because EA did just a tiny bit more of what they'd normally do, which isn't much to be fare. I'll review some points of the game, detailing exactly what is good and what is bad.

    Jedi Fallen Order was a game I was excited to play, I had really good hopes for it. It turned out, however, it was just an average game. Critics gave high ratings appearently because EA did just a tiny bit more of what they'd normally do, which isn't much to be fare. I'll review some points of the game, detailing exactly what is good and what is bad.
    Graphics and performance: I'm really not into graphics, but this game clearly has a lazy job on this part. Everytime you enter a new area it tends to take some time to load the scenary. There were loads of cutscenes that had no animations or absence of lightsaber light. The part where you go training your abilities is just ridiculous, really bad execution. In the rest of the game in general, i didn't seem to care that much.
    Glitches: talking about lazyness, there are some points of the game that really drove me crazy due to bugs making me fall from the game world, entirely stuck on a ledge in the middle of the fight, etcs. However, the more frustrating these things are, I didn't find many.
    Story (Spoiler Free): A good story, it starts pretty slowly but gets good at the end.
    Combat: It's tricky to get used to it, speacially if you're playing in hard difficulty or higher, but the longer the game goes, the better you get.
    Story battles: this topic refers to every battle with every mob in the game, including bosses. Starting with the good, the boss battles were pretty satisfying, it really remembers how dark souls works, the one on one jedi duels are great. Now to the downside, encounters like these are pretty rare. The enemies you're most likely to encounter are stormtroopers and the wildlife. The stormtroopers tend to be ok, unless you're against the dark ones, these are really annoying (not challenging) to fight against, it takes several hits to finish them, considering the fact they are normal mobs. The wildlife is the pain in the butt however, it seems 90% of the game you're going up against some random spider of the wild who has insane amounts of health. All the time you get stunned by them in a way they go pillling up on you, stunning you over and over.
    Saving/Healing/Upgrade system: Firstly, who thought this was a good idea? To save your game, you have to meditate (stand) on a circle present in some locations, why there isn't an autosave or a save button in the menu? This is stupid. To heal you do the same procedure, but when you do it, the area will restore the enemies. So combining these, the resulting problem is: you travel an area, get pretty weak, you have now the option to heal yourself, but face the tough enemies once again or you can just continue the path to die more ahead. This is a really stupid decision, because there are bosses who dont have the circle in front of them, once you die to them, you gotta go back all the way to the entrance. Similar to that, there are some puzzles (lenghty puzzles) that you solve after a fight, and there isn anywhere to heal, the result is that you die to the next wildlife and has to do it all over again just because there isnt any checkpoints.
    Lightsaber: is pretty cool, you can choose the color, but it lacks upgrades, it is purely cosmetic
    Movement: wall riding or sliding can be tough here, the game punishes you for not being exactly right while platforming or wall riding, this doesnt make the game challenging, its annoying.

    Final verdict: the game has a great story, but many flaws. EA made an average game, and it surprised everyone due to the recent failures such as Anthem and Battlefront II (with the loot system). You don't feel like a jedi until the end of the game (and it might not even be what you expect). Not gonna say it was a waste of time and money, but, if you wanna buy it, I would highly recomend to do it in a sales period.

    Я очень скептически смотрел на эту игру. Но начав играть - потерялся. Очень увлекательна. Хочется следить за сюжетом. Боевая система приятна, и когда получается провернуть красивую комбинацию - гордишься за себя.
    Рекомендую к прохождению.

    The story mode is awesome, full of references and a good and pleasable experience.
    The problem is the map, terrible designed and a sufferable navigation, forcing the player to spend hours trying to find a way to reach at some point.

    "Nobody wants to play singleplayer titles anymore". That one guy at EA must feel so stupid now. The game's simply amazing. While flawed, the devs made the most of what little budget they had and you can tell the team put their heart and soul into it. It's a shame publishers undercut the funding so much, because a bit more resources and time could have made it a solid 10/10. Let's hope EA"Nobody wants to play singleplayer titles anymore".

    As a lifelong Star Wars fan, this game had a lot going for it with me, and for the most part it succeeded! I feel like the only person who wasn’t truly INVESTED in the story of this game though, it was definitely good & a lot better than Battlefront II’s story (the newer one) but I wasn’t as attached to it as I thought I’d be by the end.

After playing it in normal difficulty, it is not as difficult as compare to other single player game i completed. Overall, its a "must play" it is the most immersive yet in a movie-based or inspired from a historic franchise. It does have its flaws its not perfect but it sure does worth a 60 dollar game. Im a huge star wars fan so i guess its a big factor. The map is so tedious for someone who wants to get the PLATINUM TROPHY like i doesn't have teleporting system. Overall its a solid game.

    Como un admirador más de la saga de Star Wars quede gratamente complacido con este juego, se que ya es un poco tarde para calificarlo luego de dos años de haber salido, pero quería decir que me encanto y que ojalá EA saque más juegos de este estilo y Disney permita sacar historias que relaten hechos que ocurren entre las épocas de las películas o cosas así.

    great atmosphere and characters. Decent graphics and visuals. Very enjoyable story. Gameplay is fun but somewhat repetitive, it lacks variation as all force power feel the same and fighting tougher foes requires you to exploit the slowdown power. The controls are clunky at best and downright infuriating at worst. Pretty much every animation in this game is broken in one way or another,great atmosphere and characters.

On top of all of this, there is an absolute plethora of bugs, glitches and so on which really take away from the experience. There are constant pop ins, sometimes you walk into a corridor that is not even there because the game hasn’t loaded it yet. Loading times are hilarious given that the game’s environments are quite small and uninspiring. I played the game with patches, I can’t imagine how bad it was on launch. One must think whether this thing went through quality control. One last thing I wanted to mention is that the whole souls-like mechanic doesn’t work for this game, I would find it more engaging and enjoyable if it was a linear experience. Overall, it is 4/10, it is not the quality I would expect from a AAA video game experience. A disappointment to say the least. Expand

    The game is really bad though a good graphics but 2-4 times the same to go away just to extend the game time is a weak job and tries to demand money with a aaa title.

    I'm really disappointed with this game. It's very overrated. Ok, graphics are good (not great) but especially at the begining there are too many difficult puzzles, so you'll have to be with a guide in your mobile just in case. Later gets better but I'm telling you. Also, it reminds me a lot Gof of War, and Uncharted. You can customize your lightsaber but it changes nothing.

It could have been a good idea that it could change your habilities or powers in doing so. About difficulty I soon changed it to history mode because if not it's quite difficult (even the history mode could be a bit tricky for beginers). I don't want to spoil anything but I didn't like the how ended (the last scene). Honestly, I think this game wouldn't deserve more than a 7 or 8. I hope some day someone makes a rpg of the Star Wars universe because that for sure it woul be great. It takes about 17 hours.

    P.S: Why can't you rotate the camera to see the face of Cal when you are in your starship? It feels weird.

    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

    At the beginning I really liked this game, but after 4-5 hours I really can't stand it. Controls and combats are aweful. It's almost unreal to fight against 2+ enemies. Level design is good, but navigation sucks. I don't like to return to the same locations because I didn't have a double jump ability but now I do. Even on PS5 there are plenty of freezes and FPS drops.

    Man this game had a great story and this gave me a huge challenge , some might say the dark souls of the star wars universe and I agree to an extent because I can't be a dark souls game but I could be this one , I just wish cosmetics were much much better and idk maybe dlc , none of that though

    Slightly "above average" game. It has its good moments, very nice Star Wars feeling, but... it looks like work in progress, with lot of technical issues, story is flat, characters also.
    There is many awful backtracking sections in it.
    In overal, it was sometimesa nice expierence, but not very good one.

    Very unintuitive controls and clunky response. Many cheap deaths from jumping THROUGH the vine the character is supposed to grab (WTF????) Yeah, love roaming aimlessly because the holomap is useless. He's an effing Jedi: he can't SENSE where his destination is? Bad game.

    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.
