    10/10 makes you feel like a padawan, highly recommend to veterans of star wars and newcomers alike.
    This is a much better version than the original simply because of the 60fps

    a good single player adventure story we all wanted for star wars games.
    Cal became one of my favourite protagonist very soon.
    story and connection to star wars universe is a good benefit for this game.
    cal and B.D is a fine due.
    game-play & fighting with light-saber has a nice feeling.
    i wanted more boss fights and harder enemies.

    La versión de PS5 de Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order trae diversas pero leves mejoras gráficas y dos modos para jugar: modo fidelidad (4K y 30 fps) y modo rendimiento (1440p y 60 fps). Yo he jugado con el modo rendimiento y, a pesar de que se juega bastante fluido con 60 fps, esta tasa de imágenes no es muy estable y, al igual que en la versión de PS4, sigue experimentando algunos bajones.La versión de PS5 de Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order trae diversas pero leves mejoras gráficas y dos modos para jugar: modo fidelidad (4K y 30 fps) y modo rendimiento (1440p y 60 fps).

Teniendo en cuenta esto, el juego es el mismo que el de PS4 (se puede actualizar gratuitamente a la versión de PS5), por lo que añado mi breve análisis acerca de este juego: Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order es el mejor juego de Star Wars de la década. Buena historia, buen gameplay, gráficos más que decentes y un mundo asombroso para explorar. La jugabilidad también es muy adictiva y satisfactoria, y el diseño de niveles es aceptable. Cabe destacar que al pasarse el juego se añaden unos modos de rondas de enemigos que añaden bastante rejugabilidad. Juego perfecto para los fanáticos de Star Wars. Solo dos contras: las bajadas de fps en algunas zonas y la parte final de la historia. 8,6/10

Taking place after the prequel trilogy but before the original, playing as a Jedi in hiding with an adorable droid sidekick made for a really fun setting and one I was always happy to return to. Gameplay could be rough occasionally and not only because of its souls-like nature, but also because it was clear it was the developers first time making a game like this and struggled a bit with difficulty scaling. Exploration is also fun to an extent but no fast traveling was probably this game’s biggest drawback, as well as planet designs that are cool sometimes but quite bland other times. Overall however this game has more hits than misses, and if you’re looking for a way to enjoy a week with a fun and straightforward experience, you could do a lot worse than Jedi Fallen Order.… Expand

    Das Spiel hat mir sehr gut gefallen. Das Kampfsystem mit den verschiedenen spezialangriffen und so weiter hat mir ebenfalls gut gefallen. Lässt sich sehr gut spielen. Die story war auch gut erzählt und nicht künstlich langgezogen. Einziger Kritikpunkt: man muss auf immer den ganzen weg zum schiff zurücklaufen, wenn man auf einem Planet fertig ist.

    The game is really pretty on a OLED screen. The lights from the sabers are popping, the different maps are well tailored and the graphic aspect is really really good.
    I removed 2 points because the game isn't bringing new mechanics to the genre, and the combats are too spaced with "alright" enigmas in between.

    Overall I want to give this a 7+ but due to the lip syncing cut scenes and and lack of updates or patches from EA this gets a zero. Just a rushed clone of the PS4 game. This game has been out for almost 2 years now and still has sync issues. Waste of money even on sale for $20.

    Jedi Fall Order is a good game. In my opinion, however, there were a few points that bothered me. I don't like the Souls like principle and would have preferred a linear game. I don't dare to say this but the game was quite hard so it was even frustrating at times. The fighting sometimes feels a little strange

I think must of the gameplay is really fun and I found the controls responsive. However, if you have the PS5 version, I strongly recommend that you enable Performance mode and play at 60 FPS. Otherwise, that was not smooth enough if you leave the default options (I think that they should have put performance as the default option here...as the 30FPS ruined my first 2 or 3 hours with this game)

    You will find in this game a few glitches, pop-ins, etc...but nothing too major. I found that there is some inconsistency in the graphics quality. A few planets look really good (Dathomir for example..), the characters clothes, textures are nice too. However, I remember that the grass, the plants were really low textures and seemed like ps3 graphics. Overall, graphics are average and even though it's presented as a PS5 version, we don't feel this way.

    I give this game around 7,5/10 but it leans more toward a 7,4/10 so I won't put a 8 rating here. A few positive aspects to end this review:
    1. The game is not repetitive at all. There is a good balance between combat, exploration and puzzles.
    2. The sword combat is really well done and we have an interesting skill tree and upgrade system
    3. We have at least a 20 hours main story, which is good for a semi open world / linear game like that !    … Expand

    I was really excited for this game, but it just didn't hit the nice spot for me. The game has cool boss fights and really fun combat. The story however is not great, but I am still going to give Jedi: Survivor a try. This is a good game to pick up if you are looking for a game to play.

    Cons
    - to this day it is a bit buggy (infinite falling animations, getting turned around on slides if you land too close at the lip, audio desync)
    - higher difficulties shine a light on both the best and worst parts of the combat system

    Fallen Order was one of the most surprisingly good games I've played. Taking the Star Wars license and running with it, Fallen Order is a fun new start to a franchise I hope continues for a couple of entries.

    The star of the show is the combat. The lack of dismemberment and the lightsaber being more of a lightbaseball bat looks a little weird at the start but it quickly gets overshadowed by just how fun it feels to deflect blaster bolts and cut through anything that moves.

    The best part of this system are the various boss battles and Purge Troopers, as they are specifically designed to play with your melee the best. The worst part of the combat are some of the gankier areas, best seen on Dathomir and Kashyyyk, as it is a genuine struggle to hold out against hordes. The worst part being the two double spider encounters on Kashyyyk, as they enjoy doing their unblockable jaw clamp half a second from each other, which means you are getting hit no matter what.

    The various worlds you can explore feel massive. The metroidvania style of exploration where you have to come back to certain places after you unlock abilities and gear feels intriguing. And some of the worlds have fantastically hidden routes you can navigate all the way to various secrets and extra cosmetic pieces.

    This is helped by one of the best maps I ever had the pleasure of interacting with. Showing you the various features where you can and can't go since you don't have the ability to continue in that direction is genius and led to me discovering a bunch of stuff myself.

    When it comes to the story, it is a bog standard Empire bad, Jedi screwed, motley crew, yada yada Star Wars stuff. What saves this from being boring is the cast is pretty fun to listen to and empathize with. The performances put in by the actors feel natural and comfortable to see.

    All in all, seeing EA on the box of a Star Wars game had me skeptical, but somehow it ended up as one of the more fun experiences I've had with Star Wars in years. Definitely recommend for anyone to pick this up since Fallen Order is just that fun.    … Expand

    This is a really bad game.

    I thought it would be a mix of Uncharted (jumping and climbing) and God of War (melee fighting) in the Star Wars universe. Turns out it's more like a bad take on Souls-like.

Levels are large and empty and it's easy to get stuck loosing the goal (even with the map, yes).

    I've played around 4 hours, got to the second planet and got the push force, but the best part of the game was first 30 minutes of intro/tutorial. After that the story was very slow and boring.

    I must say tho, that the game looks pretty decent on PS5.    … Expand

    Everything modern Star Wars should have been. Gameplay-wise, think The Uncharted Series meets Bloodborne and Force Unleashed. Very polished graphics, animations and mechanics too. The story, acting and environments are also very much what you expect from a AAA title when done correctly.

The story, acting and environments are also very much what you expect from a AAA title when done correctly.

    Cameron Monaghan's brilliant and believable performance as Cal Kestis is also one of the highlights of this game, and he skillfully weaves one of the most relatable and likable characters since the original Trilogy.

    Whether it is his strained relationship with his new allies, his diminished belief in his own abilities, his fear of the repercussions to others around him if he is found out - to his heartbreaking relationship with his friend Prauf (that is all too briefly cut short at the start of the game); Cal is the kind of unlikely hero you can't help but empathize with, and actually WANT to get behind and see succeed.

    The cast of misfit characters around him are also as layered and broken, and in that you get a feeling that like the original Trilogy, you are watching them overcome their own limitations, fears, and baggage instead of simply existing from the start as some kind of Marry Sue or Comedic Punching bag.

    This game was an extremely welcome surprise.    … Expand

    I have no idea why this game is so well received. It's basically just another highly mediocre Souls inspired action game that also happens to take place in the Star Wars universe.

    Some annoyances:

    1. One of the most uncharismatic protagonists I've ever seen. If you look up the name "Buzz Killington" in a dictionary, you will most likely find a picture of this guy.

    2. The protagonist feels really clunky to control. I expected fluid motions and combat, considering how jedis and siths in the movies usually move, but this guy is about as nimble as my refrigerator.
    He's also got what is probably the shortest dodge in the history of dodging. He literally just takes one baby step to the side (measuring maybe 8 inches/20 cm), which looks absolutely pointless and doesn't really get him out of harm's way at all.
    He can also do a roll by double tapping the dodge button, but it's slow and annoying to use compared to single tap dodges.

    3. Extremely repetitive combat, even if you pick up all the skill upgrades in the talent tree.

    4. Enemies attack you with no regard for their own safety. Expect to have people firing rocket launchers at you from point blank.

    5. You can upgrade your lightsaber, but it's completely redundant. It could've been pretty cool if it would alter its stats, but it doesn't. All it does is change the appearance of the handle in various ways, but you can only see it in the game menu anyway, because it's so tiny and the protagonist is holding it at all times while you're playing.

    6. It's often unclear which way you're supposed to go. You're usually presented with several ways to go, but there's no indication which one is an optional route and which one is where you need to go for story progression. If you accidentally pick the correct one right away, you tend to get locked inside the next area, and all the other routes, with collectibles and whatnot, become inaccessible so you'll need to backtrack through the entire area again at some point later in the game if you want them.

    7. There's no fast travel, meaning you'll sometimes have to run back to the start from the end of a map you've already cleared, while also encountering all the enemies that have now respawned. No fast travel also means that coming back for collectibles you've missed becomes a tedious chore.

    8. You will fall down pits A LOT because you either got knocked down there by an enemy or because the character didn't move the way you wanted him to while trying to jump, wall run, etc.

    These are just a few things I thought of off the top of my head. I might update this review with more later on, but I think I already got my point across in regards to what I think of this game.    … Expand

    The shoved the clunkyness of Gears of War into Bloodborne, and the result is frustrating. It seems impossible to find any rhythm in combat, you'll hear that alot. Bloodborne is my 2nd best game of all time, behind only The Ocarina of Time. There is some fantastic presentation here and some fun exploring, but even turning down the difficulty to story mode, it felt like a chore.

    The best Star Wars game in over a decade gets a revamp on PS5, and becomes a Forceful contender. Minor issues aside, Fallen Order shouldn’t be missed. [Issue#3, p.134]

    The game is stunning to behold, but frame hitches are common – especially on the 4K option. The combat is exhilarating, but the jumping and sliding puzzles leave a lot to be desired. The end result is an experience that is decent at just about everything, and easy to recommend. But as good as Fallen Order may be, if you look backwards in time, it’s not difficult to find superior Star Wars experiences.

    Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order finds its true home on PS5, with Sony's monstrously powerful hardware bringing out the most in Respawn's evocative visual design, all the while reminding us just how good the game is. Even in 2021, Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order is one of the best Star Wars games of the last decade and this is by far the best way to play it.
