    It's a game I wanted to like, but the performance is a joke and the story isn't as good as the original, newly introduced characters with a twist aren't as interesting as built-up ones, this series seems like it'll be one-off slightly connected stories

When you take control of an enemy to make them fight for you, they are still more likely to attack you than your opponents, meaning you just wasted time and force for nothing, and made the fight harder for yourself because you don't expect to be hit from behind and you waste health. The game feels empty, with large sections of mindless parkour followed by more mindless sections, but this times filled with a ton of enemies the size of your foot, but somehow do half your health bar with one hit on normal mode. And the parkour is extremely bad, as well as the puzzles. The puzzles are stupid, either because they are somewhere they shouldn't be, or because they make no sense. And the parkour is either mind numbingly boring, or its extremely hard to do because finding the path is like finding Waldo. If you aren't 2 inches from your screen, it can be easy to overlook slightly differently shaped pieces of rock, meaning you can be stuck on one jump for minutes because the game designers don't know how to distinguish between background textures and important-pieces-to-the-puzzle textures. And for some reason, you can lose hours of progress at once for no reason, and the game will just spawn you in at a random meditation point you visited. Afterwards, the ride-able creatures will float in the air, or rubber-band around when you are riding them. This game came out almost half a year ago, and yet t major bugs like this are still in the game. It is a waste of money to buy, because they clearly don't care about making an actually engaging and enjoyable story and world. They just want your money. But hey, pay them like 20 extra bucks, and you can get a few free skins and colors you can use if you want, even though they don't look much different than the other skins you can unlock. I haven't really noticed the performance issues the others are dealing with, but it does sometimes get really bad for no reason, just not enough to be an issue for me.… Expand

    August 2023 and despite the patches, this is still the buggiest game I've ever played ss it crashes all the time which is really annoying. The game is OK but if I'd known it would perform this poorly I would never have paid for it. A real let down.

    Sadly unplayable, even now months later no performance improvements, constant stuttering, tearing and cant maintain even 30fps on either quality or performance mode. I loved fallen order and from what I've heard the game itself here is an improvement in most ways, its a shame I cant get there because its the most poorly optimised game I've ever played.

    It has many Bugs, Framerate issues and a very Bad Resolution under 720p.. I hope a big Patch comes in near Future .

    The biggest crime of this game isn't the performance. It's the fact that it's so ball-achingly boring. I'm about 15 hours in and losing the will to live. If you love exploring bloated open worlds, falling off things due to pedantic controls, and engaging in shallow combat, then you will adore this game.

The story/writing is at least an 8/10, but I can't give the game as a whole anything more than a 3/10 from how frustrating it is to buy a brand new game and the mechanics ruin the whole experience. If there's another Starwars game, even WITH Cal, I'm going to hold my money until after the release so that I'm not screwed out of an experience like this. I hate you EA and hope all yall shut down soon.… Expand

    Overhyped buggy disaster. Even on graphics mode the game is beyond blurry and looks like an early ps4 game. Not to mention the unresponsive controls and the uninspired combat. Save your money and wait for a sale. Most i’d recommend paying for this currently is $15.

    Very buggy, ranging from crashes, meny stops working, map markers overlap the fast travel and the balloons you have to place will not be placed; forcing you to reload in combination of a horrible autosave made this a less than enjoyable experience.

    Unfortunately one of the worst games I have played this year.
    The game Crashes all the time, I lost my savefile 3 times.
    The peformance works terrible. The game was bugged for Caij Quest for more than a month.
    The gameplay also have major issues.
    The only part for me that was good in this game was the Story...

    Manuel saves only is incredibly disrespectfull of users time. Around 2/3 trough the game my file breaks and becorse i am not allowed to manuel save I now have to start over.
    Insisting on autosave only adds nothing to the player exspirience. There is no good reason for this

    Even with all the well documented performance issues aside (and it can be a struggle to overlook them especially when like me you had the game crash consistently once every hour or so while just walking around), this just isn't a very good game.

    It feels like Star Wars should be a pretty adaptable and easy recipe to master, especially when it comes to game design. Give me a lightsaber and make sure the controls feel tight. Seems simple enough on the surface. Instead - like the last game, it feels like a trend chase; western devs who clearly love and admire the works of the likes of FromSoftware, who don't understand what makes those games special or how to capture the satisfying mechanical feel of them.
    Hits don't feel impactful, dodging feels way too stiff and imprecise, all the while enemy attacks just seem to have a really heavy pull to you; sliding them across the ground even when you dodge correctly. These are the kinds of issues that were resolved in FromSoft games in like 2011, so it just feels unforgivable at this point.

    The writing is as many recent SW outings across TV and film have been: sights and sounds simulators with nothing new or interesting to say. They know that the masses want slop to lap up; seemingly insatiable and rabid fans with an unquenchable hunger for references to some far flung expanded universe book that amount to nothing more than some little freak called Glup Shiddo showing up in the background for them to clap for.
    The last actually original feeling SW content was The Last Jedi. Like it or not it actually tried to challenge the status quo of what SW is and could be, while having genuine character arcs that feel resolved and or clearly inbound for a conclusion.

    Jedi Survivor picks up with the same lifeless protagonist as it's predecessor, a person with delivery so dry that it's impossible to feel drawn in. The supporting cast - like the first game, has one saving grace in the form of Greez, however he is woefully absent from most of the game, leaving you with a cast that feels like the boring versions of the already insufferable Guardians of the Galaxy.

    Just not good. If you see a used copy cheap or a digital sale where it's 60% off, then *maybe* it'll be worth your time, and that's only if you love SW.    … Expand

    The game and story are great but I can’t with good conscience rate this game any higher than a 2 because it’s broken. EA had no business to release the game in this state, they should’ve delayed it because it obviously needed more time to be polished. As gamers we need to start demanding complete games upon release, we vote with our wallets and all of us need to stop buying broken games.

    As of now, I don’t recommend this game to anyone playing on PS5. The frame rate (mostly at or below 50 FPS in a blurry looking 1080p) is still unacceptable for an AAA title on such a capable hardware. Buyers beware.

    There is an amazing game hidden underneath a gigantic pile of bugs and performance issues. I'd recommend checking back in about a year before buying it, or you will not have the intended experience.

    Edit: Patch 6 came out after a month of radio silence, and it only seems to have made things worse. Lowering the rating to reflect that. Please don't buy the game until at least 2024.

    Sometimes uneven, often wondrous, Survivor is bombastic and joyous, though it feels like a middle child in search of a trilogy ending. May the Force be with it. [Issue#28, p.72]

    Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is a much bigger game than before, with plenty of new moves, collectibles and characters to discover. The size of its open-world maps means it also lacks some of the variety of its predecessor, but there is so much to see and do that you'll likely not care one jot. Perhaps the most impressive aspect is how well fleshed-out the adventure is - better even than many of the TV series and films on which it is based. This is a blockbuster in the truest sense.
