    I get lost to much. No fast travel. Good combat. No sense of direction. Game doesn't tell you where to go. Can place down points to go to.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I love the gameplay and the story I give it a 9.5 out of 10 the various environments are beautiful and the difficulty is just right as it gives you a challenge until you get the groove of things THE ONLY THING that drags it down is the ending. The running from Vader was epic but the ending scene when Cal destroyed the holocron made me feel like everything the game lead up to was for nothing I understand what they were going for but that's just me. It left room for a sequel so that's good and I really hope it happens because this game was excellent… Expand

    Why do they keep coming out with terrible star wars games. Why wouldn't Disney/Lucas hire BioWare to remake Knights of the Old Republic into a next gen console?

    Positively surprised with this one. It has a great story that even people who never seen Star Wars (me) will enjoy it, the gameplay at first might be a lil dull but once you unlock some skills it gets way way better. I'd give it a 9/10 but the game (as many EA games) has lots of glitches n bugs sometimes very frustrating. Enemies disappearing for a while and coming back from nowhere.

It happens during cutscenes too. Love the lightsaber customisation. I played it on the hardest difficulty so it took me some time to finish but the boss fights are pretty neat. I felt like I'm playing bloodborne for a second. I noticed a lot of fps drops even on a ps4 pro while playing on performance mode. Overall I think it is a good game. It feels like it was made by the guys who made Dead Space and Mass Effect, the real EA. Not the ones who published Andromeda or Anthem.… Expand

    This game is a buggy, ugly, unpolished mess. From the horrific framerate to the ugly graphics.

    Star Wars makes me want to stick a blaster to my dome. Have fun playing as kid anakin as he becomes one who looks like he has downs. A robot that’s a dog. With a compelling story of a junior Jedi and all the Jedi stuff that they never explain. The force is telling me right now 0/10

    It's star wars, so even if it is a souls clone with cringeworthy platforming, I guess it should get a 10/10? Not sure. But this game fails at what it tries to do very often -Too often in my opinion. The game gives you instructions on how to to play, but then breaks its own rules without warning. The battles are completely inconsistent, even when the same inputs are put in by the player.It's star wars, so even if it is a souls clone with cringeworthy platforming, I guess it should get a 10/10?

The battles are completely inconsistent, even when the same inputs are put in by the player. The framerate on base ps4 is laughable at times, the entire game stopping to to load some sequences. There are just so many times more issues than a normal soulslike that it is impossible to list everything. The pacing of the bonfires is all over the place, the checkpoints completely random at times before bosses, a big no no in a soulslike. Give me checkpoints or dont! Dont tease me! This is such wasted potential. So many little things that should have been ironed out. The main thing is, this game is just not fun, and it should be. The whole time I'm just wondering how the game's inconsistency will kill me and piss me off.… Expand

    Hate everything about this game the bland boring story to the copy and paste gameplay elements i.e. Uncharted, Dark souls. The combat is awful for a jedi game and the souls combat does in no way suit a jedi game unlike other star wars games in the past. How do we make a game long oh why don't we add backtracking ... meh.

    This is a good game at it's core, but it's dragged down by an utterly arbitrary narrative, repetitive game-play, backtracking through explored areas to fill the time and the general sense of frustration that this COULD have been a great title.

    Visuals are ok, music is ok, customisation options are great.

    Sorry but this is just an EA game, once you all buy it a multiplayer with gambling loot boxes will follow, game seems to be an all out copy and paste with the same generic story line, my brother bought it and i watched it till he beat it.... in just several hours so it seemed pretty short. sorry i will never support EA

    A very bad Star Wars Tomb Raider/Uncharted clone. The graphics are sputtery (at best) even on my 1080ti SLI machine. You spend a lot of time climbing, and it isn't any more fun than it was in the previously mentioned games. The controls are very clunky, both in and out of combat.

    It is no wonder they put an embargo on reviews before release.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The beginning of the story is really good, but the last few hours where unrewarding and without a real close. The lightsaber combat is a step down compared to previous entries, it feels more like a bat, and the force powers feel really weak. Graphics and animations are grat, but it has lots of bugs and framerate problems.… Expand

    Very overrated. Graphics on PS4 PRO look outdated. Controls are clunky and janky at best. Way to much back tracking just because. Battles are Darksouls-ish and you can get beat down by three simple mobs. One hit of damage to you and you are stunned it seems.

    Somehow good, but so glitchy and unfriendly to player, I am not talking about difficulty, the bugs and level design is so much worse than Uncharted. Some gameplay moments are almost impossible to walkthrough.

    This game surprised me. I'm not a fan of star wars but this game is very good. It is very reminiscent of uncharted, creed killers and a bit of dark souls in combat. I recommend this game.
    It's graphically beautiful even running at low resolution on PS4 PRO or XBOX ONE.
    Still the game deserves 10.

    Que ganas tenia de un juego enfocado para un jugador y sus mecanicas son maravillosas, bebe de juegos en mi opinion como tom raider uncharted sekiro etc y hace un conjunto de sobresalimte encima en un universo dificil de igualar como starrs wars. Un 10

    If you have a brain, this game is ridiculously boring, even on the hardest, which is completely buggy and meaningless. You pass the lightsaber all over the enemy's body and he keeps acting like it's no big deal.

    Performance on the base consoles are just absurd. It cant even maintain 30fps in many areas with ALOT of freezes and texture load in issues which also happen with the ps4 pro and the one x versons. How did we come from Arkham Knight's amazing looking game on unreal engine to this 20 to 29 fps ****

    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.
