    The game finally got patched on PS5 and made playable.

    Gotta say, it is indeed the best Star Wars game ever created. The gameplay is fun and the story is intriguing.

    Now that the game has been patched, I can recommend it.

    * there are still some minor bugs that need fixing, but nothing too major nor game-breakibg.

So, I was extremely excited to see everything new that this game had to offer and it didn’t disappoint. Many things have been added or expanded upon from its predecessor and are mostly worthwhile additions. It adds more enemies and abilities, a huge main world to explore, side quests (rumors), challenges, an immensely fun mini game, and more. Holotactics is now one of my favorite mini games ever. You also get an outpost to interact with and recruit intriguing NPCs to. This game also has one of the coolest action sequences that I’ve ever played through (when you escape the Pilgrim Sanctuary with Merrin).

    This game has some flaws though. First, the beginning of the plot feels like happenstance, more so than I can recall in any other game. No spoilers, but is Cal the luckiest Jedi in the galaxy? Also, the villain’s motives seem naive and are not fleshed out enough. Second, you obtain some gadgets very late in the story, which slightly discourages exploration, even after 25+ hours. Last, sometimes the controls are unresponsive and there are minor glitches that caused me to restart the game (R1 button not working, couldn’t change stance, or couldn’t cycle targets.)

    Combat in this game was slightly frustrating too. I played on Jedi Master (Hard mode) difficulty, for context. The ranged enemies are irritating. Whether, attacking them or deflecting their shots back at them, they are highly evasive. The targeting controls are messy, so when targeting someone, if I get attacked, the game will switch targets. There was also one instance where I had an enemy trapped in a corner and he dodged all of my attacks, despite my lightsaber clipping through his body. Finally, some mini bosses have one hit kill attacks (not present in Fallen Order), which adds another level of frustration.

    I personally enjoyed Jedi: Fallen Order slightly more. I found it to be simpler and better paced. The vast amount of combat options in this game is frankly overwhelming and unnecessary. And, maybe the story could have been told better. Regardless, this is an amazing sequel that I still highly recommend. The plot gets pretty dark towards the end and I can’t wait to see the payoff in another entry. - 8.5    … Expand

I would even put this game on the level of God of War Ragnarok, if it wasn't for two important issues. First, the game is still not optimized performance wise even after all the patches (and it already got it's share of review bombing here for this). At the moment on PS5 it's not game breaking any more, but you can often feel the substantial frame rate drop even on performance mode. And second, while the combat is really nice, it is not at the level of God of War or Sekiro, it's not very diverse and the skill tree is not very useful, there's little variety in moves even with the different available stances. However, overall it's a great game and if you are a fan of the Star wars universe it is definitely a must for you.… Expand

    Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is a game that truly stands out and could very well be a strong contender for Game of the Year 2023. Playing it on the PS5 was an absolute delight, as the game took full advantage of the console's power and capabilities.

The    Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is a game that truly stands out and could very well be a strong contender for Game of the Year 2023. Playing it on the PS5 was an absolute delight, as the game took full advantage of the console's power and capabilities.

    From the very beginning, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor managed to capture the essence of what it feels like to become a Jedi in a video game. The gameplay was immersive and engaging, making me feel like a true Jedi as I wielded my lightsaber and used the Force to take on enemies. The introduction of Stances added a whole new layer of depth to the combat, giving me more options and strategies to use in battles.

    The visuals in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor were nothing short of breathtaking. The environments were beautifully rendered, and the character designs were on point. Whether I was exploring the vast landscapes or engaging in intense lightsaber duels, the graphics always managed to impress.

    While the story of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor did a good job of picking up from its previous title, I couldn't help but feel that there was something missing. The narrative felt a bit empty at times, and the ending left me wanting more. Perhaps the developers were saving some surprises for future content, but I couldn't shake the feeling that the story could have been more fleshed out.

    Despite this, the overall experience of playing Star Wars Jedi: Survivor was nothing short of phenomenal. The gameplay, visuals, and the feeling of becoming a Jedi all combined to create a truly memorable and enjoyable gaming experience. This is one of those few games that excel even when they drop a sequel, and it's a testament to the skill and passion of the developers.

    It also offers a thrilling and challenging experience, much like a Souls-game. The difficulty level truly put my skills to the test, and I found myself facing formidable foes and intense battles throughout the game. It's not a walk in the park, but that's what makes the victories all the more rewarding.

    The game's combat system, inspired by Souls-like games, requires precise timing, strategic planning, and a good understanding of enemy patterns. Each encounter felt like a true test of my abilities as a Jedi, and I had to adapt and learn from my mistakes to overcome the challenges that lay ahead.

    While the difficulty may be daunting at times, it added a layer of excitement and tension to the gameplay. Every encounter with powerful enemies or intimidating bosses kept me on the edge of my seat, knowing that a single misstep could lead to defeat.

    The comparison to Souls-games is not to be taken lightly, as Star Wars Jedi: Survivor truly lives up to the reputation of its challenging counterparts. It's a game that demands dedication and perseverance from players, but in return, it offers a deeply rewarding and satisfying experience for those who are willing to take on the challenge.

    In addition to this, customization actually has its edge on its one. I prefer the customization value this game has given me. It made obsess on how Cal should look for every part of the game I am in. With that, It really made me explore the world even more to find materials, and other cosmetics the game can offer me. How I wish there is a Poncho!

    In conclusion, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is a must-play for any Star Wars fan or anyone who has ever dreamt of becoming a Jedi. The gameplay is engaging and varied, the visuals are stunning, and the feeling of wielding a lightsaber and using the Force is simply unmatched. While the story could have been more fulfilling, the overall experience of playing this game is one that will stay with me for a long time. If you're looking for an epic and immersive Star Wars adventure, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is the game to play. May the Force be with you!    … Expand

    This is a great single player game with great gameplay. I love how it evolved from the first part. The combat evolved a lot and there is a lot of variance how to fight enemies. I finished the first part on Grand Master difficulty. And now already spend ~15 hours on Jedi survivor also on the hardest difficulty. It brings a lot of joy once you master the parry mechanic and understand how to defeat different enemies (spend 40 minutes on Rancor).
    If you like challenging single player game with great combat - just pick the hardest difficulty and the game will bring you a lot of fun.
    The only negative part is performance, it's not terrible, it's ok. I play on Xbox series X on 4K TV, I have some noticable fps drops time to time, but that is 4k and the console is already 3 years after release, it's analogue of rtx 2070-2080. So if you have rtx 30**/40** series and full HD monitor - I believe there wouldn't be any noticable issues with fps. I mean Witcher 3 had good enough 100+ fps only after many years of release and the game was still good. So this one is great as well.    … Expand

    A narratively engaging and mechanically sound game that defies its infrequent bugginess to be something quite excellent.

    Survivor manages to trump its prequel, Fallen Order, by adding content in a truly additive fashion. It also presents a more mature and powerful story - one that manages to subvert common tropes within the Star Wars universe, and injects its messages into its gameplay in ways that are both powerful and inventive. This story is also carried by solid acting and extremely well-animated cutscenes.

    Sadly, Survivor does have some issues with performance - while not nearly as abysmal as I have heard the game's performance on PC is, there were some issues on PS5 with stuttering, lengthy framerate drops, mistimed lip-sync outside of cutscenes, and three crashes to the home screen within a single area. These issues did not ruin my experience by any means, but they did leave an impression.

    Overall, Jedi: Survivor is an excellent follow-up to Fallen Order, which is solid in its own right, and I would argue it even manages to surpass it. I urge anyone who feels wary about purchasing it (based on criticisms of its performance) to be cautiously optimistic, as I believe there is more than enough good here to encourage players to look past some choppiness in its performance.    … Expand

Quick travel from meditation points is very welcome. Story pacing is not a problem; if you want to explore between main quests and knock out some collectibles/side quests you get the opportunity. As you progress in abilities more areas open up, even on worlds you've previously visited - so there's some reason to revisit "completed" worlds. Overall it was just a good fun game. Not a 10/10, but 8 seems reasonable (if I was forced to go over/under 8 it'd probably be slightly under).

    I can't speak to the performance issues others seemed to have. I bought this upon release on a PS5 and didn't have any noticeable issues. Some gamers have trouble with games under 60fps; I prefer 60fps but I can enjoy a game perfectly well at 30fps. YMMV here.

    The level of difficulty is a bit uneven. While I beat the final boss the first try on "normal" (Jedi Knight) difficulty, certain bosses took dozens of tries. One I even had to give up on and lower the difficulty to get past. Maybe I just need to "git gud", but it just seemed out of sync with the rest of the game.

    If you prefer bigger open worlds and exploration, this teases that a bit but I certainly wouldn't buy it for that; the story and game are mostly linear. There is opportunity to explore each area after, but basically you're just hunting down collectibles. It's satisfying enough if you like that sort of thing.    … Expand

    - Incredibly fun combat (especially in boss fights).
    - Compelling narrative with some real stand out moments, particularly towards the end.
    - Fleshes out the main cast far more than the first.
    - Excellent soundtrack.
    - Solid visuals/overall presentation.
    - Massively improved customization options.
    - Includes far more side content and secrets.

    Negatives:
    - Performance isn’t that good (even as of June 2023).
    - Certain important characters unfortunately didn’t get enough involvement or screen time in the overall story.
    - Various bugs were present in my play-through, some blocking 100% completion, requiring a NG+ run.
    - Many mysteries surrounding the game’s main location were brought up and then never revisited.

    Its important to note that i also 100% completed this games predecessor, Jedi: Fallen Order and liked it but didn’t really love it. But in my honest opinion, Jedi: Survivor is an improvement in every area that matters, except performance of-course (though it’s not nearly as egregiously bad anymore). Making this a worthwhile sequel and one that gets me excited for the future.    … Expand

    Having said that, I am honestly a little blown away by this game. I'm a gamer in my 30s, and quit more games than I finish because there just aren't that many anymore that really, really float my boat. Games in recent memory that I got truly hooked on were Elden Ring, Hollow Knight and Cuphead. I considered Fallen Order to be mediocre in many ways. This game improves on Fallen Order in every conceivable way. I have hardly a negative thing to say about it apart from the fact that performance is not great. A month later, texture pop-in, some minor screen tearing and performance drops are a fact of life. Presentation-wise, the game somewhat pales in comparison to the likes of God of War: Ragnarok. However, there are some truly visually stunning moments as well.

    Gameplay here is freaking awesome, and despite being a somewhat narrative heavy game, this is a game you truly play. Guardians of the Galaxy, this is not. I have played most of the game dual-wielding on Jedi Master difficulty. Grandmaster would be doable. I'm not having much difficulty. I play this game very similarly to Sekiro, with attack rebound to R1. It's a rhythmic dance of parry, attack and doge, with some telekinesis thrown in. It's consistently satisfying, despite enemies offering up no loot. Movement is fun and free feeling, hugely improved over Fallen Order.

    The homeworld of Koboh and the way that it opens up as the game progresses ought to satisfy any Souls or Metroidvania fan. Worldbuilding is clever with characters you encounter in the wild who will then return to a saloon which is satisfying to watch as it grows. Sense of place and player impact on the world is significant and satisfying. The map is much more useful this time around and the lack of a compass, minimap or icons keeps the sense of exploration feeling organic.

    Characters and voice-acting are genuinely really good here. The script is good too. Not just by videogame standards. There are emotionally affecting moments, and organically funny stuff throughout. There is a literally a character names Skoova Stev, and it's genuinely fun and not an eyeroll.

    I'm giving this game a 9, because I would still love to see some actual gear and a bit more player customizability in the next installment. This game is really fantastic. i hope that they can release the next one with more polish.    … Expand

It doesn’t rewrite the rules so much as massively build upon, improve and expand on the formula in numerous ways. It offers a human story about home, family and moving on while presenting a likeable cast and memorable locations.

    Character Customization/Appearance: 8 ⚠️  Spoiler ⚠️ Cons: For the cons I have to say one thing. There isn't too many but some are serious however. Starting with the first con. The game on the PS5 version is getting fps drops here and there. I looked it up and apparently it isn't only for the PS5, but also on the Xbox. The fps drops aren't a big deal for me but I just wanted to let everyone know. The second con has to be the lack of customization when it comes to headgear. Unfortunately there's no cool masks or helmets in the game that you can wear and yes I am aware that it isn't common for Jedi's to wear helmets or wear masks. But they usually wear hoods...which is another thing the game does not Include, in my opinion this is such a bummer since it would've looked really cool wearing a hood. Last thing has to be the fact that there isn't that many good looking outfits. I'm just gonna say that this is a minor con and more of a personal opinion, there's the Jedi robes, Wanderer set and the Commander Set that I actually like. Again, this is just a personal opinion and I wish they will add more armor sets in the feature.
    -
    Pros: For the pros I must say that I am super thankful that we got the ability to customize Cal, to give him a beard and long hair definitely made me happy. There's many other Hairstyle and beards in the game to choose from. Another thing has to be the map improvement. The map displays a little marker on where you have to go. This was very helpful and made it so much easier not to get lost. Speaking of maps. Finally you have the ability to fast travel in the game! This is something I wished we had in Fallen Order. The pain of having to go through the map all over just to get back to the ship was so frustrating and so tedious. Gameplay wise one of the things I liked was the different kinds of stances the game offered. Last thing has to be the cutscenes, the cutscenes were **** amazing.
    -
    Story: Starting off I must say Cal looks absolutely handsome, probably the beard I don't know but I really like it. In the story we got a grapple gun, it was nice and it made the traversal much better. Note that you can only use the grapple on specific spots. The game had alot of plot twists, one of them being that The Ninth Sister returned. She was in Fallen Order and we literally killed her....well so we thought. As we progress further into the game we get to meet Merrin again. She was in Fallen Order. The relationship that they share in Jedi Survivor is very sweet but I must say I do miss her old haircut. The further you get the more abilities you unlock such as dash and other force abilities, speaking of the force it was super fun to use in combos when fighting. Now for the actual story. We meet a guy name Bode. The plot twist with him being a Jedi was something else....I did not expect it and I hate him so much and like him at the same time..also the fight with Cere vs Darth Vader....holy **** that was sooo good. The ending of the game was very sad...and yeah. 10/10 I **** love this game and I'd definitely recommend it.    … Expand

    Don't know how it's going to end, but so far it was an incredible experience, well written and more Star Wars than the latest movies.    … Expand

    Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is now my favorite Star Wars game since Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. There are so many things that this game does just right that you could argue that this game is the best Star Wars game to date. An example that I’ll use is Jedi: Survivor’s excellent combat system and the number of directions you could go with it. You’re given 5 different stances thatStar Wars Jedi: Survivor is now my favorite Star Wars game since Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. There are so many things that this game does just right that you could argue that this game is the best Star Wars game to date. An example that I’ll use is Jedi: Survivor’s excellent combat system and the number of directions you could go with it. You’re given 5 different stances that you can use in combat which consist of single, double-sided, duel wield, blaster, and crossguard. Each one is meant to help you feel like a Jedi Master, as you traverse through each planet. Speaking of which, each planet is filled with so much content that you can practically get lost exploring for hours. I once spent 10 hours just exploring and leveling up my Cal Kestis so much that I also had a huge wardrobe of cosmetics for him after. Even when I thought I explored every corner of the map, there was always a bigger mystery I had not discovered.
    The cast of characters in Jedi Survivor is written so well that it can be hard to choose a favorite. Of course, we play as Cal Kestis, our main protagonist from the last game, however, he’s not the only returning character. Characters like Cere, Greez, and Merrin return, and lots has changed since the last time we’ve seen them in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. We do get new characters like Bode Akuna and Dagan Gera who both play a huge role in Jedi: Survivor’s plot. I won’t be discussing it for spoiler reasons but this story is a huge step up from the last game that it raises the bar for where Cal might go in his inevitable third game. With the addition of the many different stances and new game plus, you could get multiple playthroughs with this game, almost justifying the 70-dollar price tag. One big complaint I have with this game is how badly it runs on console, with constant problems dealing with low frame rate, pop-in issues, and textures not loading. I had my game crash 4 different times, one particular one right after a boss fight that ruined any tension the scene had. Even after all the patches it still ran bad and sometimes even worse than before. Hopefully, this gets patched so that future players can experience this amazing story with no bugs.
    Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is a perfect example of cinematic translation from movie to game. With an amazing soundtrack, action set pieces, and writing that it makes other Star Wars media look lower tier. With its amazing lightsaber combat system that allows you to be your own Jedi that you always dreamed of being, this game gives what any Star Wars fan would want. While the technical issues can be bad, the game itself does a great job of allowing you to overlook the issues and continue playing. In the end, I give Star Wars Jedi: Survivor a 9/10 score.    … Expand

    I'm playing on PS5, it's really fun. Haven't notice a lot of the problems people have mentioned here. It is a big download even from disk, and it resets you back to the main menu when there's an update when you come back from standby which is annoying.

    The story is amazing made. Like the support characters and the different styles of fighting. There are some droprates but put performance mode on and there is no problem with the fighting or the cinematic cutsscenes. Many who complain just want to see full hd door instead of a good story.

    I enjoyed a lot this game. The story was really well written and the dark sides of Cal are really enjoyable. Great artistic direction and action. Really fun to play. No particular issues with a Ryzen 7 3800 and RTX 4070.

    - Bounties are an exciting addition leading to fun fights
    - cutscenes genuinely feel like movie scenes with wonderful direction and voice acting
    - the OST makes the already amazing cutscenes hit deep in moments I did not expect
    - both the returning and newly introduced characters feel appropriate with some definite stand outs (Cal, Merrin, Bode, Caij, Greez)
    - the inhabitants of the cantina are fun and interesting to talk to, making me do the rounds anytime I visited the saloon

    Cons
    - performance issues and crashes
    - anti-consumer practices in selling a physical copy that requires a download to play
    - a motivation for a certain characters actions feel like the worst way to write what the writers were trying to accomplish

    As a sequel Survivor succeeds in improving on everything Fallen Order did and then some. As a game release, survivor fails hard. My god if they cooked this for some more time and released it finished this would be an easy nine with a potential for a ten for me.

    When it comes to the main bulk of the game, Survivor is packed with content and fun side activities. Outside of the main story, the game is a collectathon where you are encouraged to find all of the various outfits and lightsabers you can, to fuel the newly added customization.

    A fantastic feature by the way, supported by the fact that all cutscenes are not pre-rendered which means your customization actually affects how Cal looks throughout the story.

    So what about the story? Bigger, grander and a lot more ambitious. After the first game the characters ended in very appropriate places and are now encouraged to find their actual place in the galaxy. Filled with fun and epic moments, Survivor delivers on character development and adds in some obvious twists that hide some of the less obvious ones. All this accompanied by a stellar OST that makes this game a thrillride.

    Side activities are way more fun as the Bounty and Rumor systems lead to organic exploration while Holotactics is just a fun way to unwind. Exploration is made a lot more fun with such additions as a grappling hook and an air dash.

    So how about the massive elephant in the room? The botched release leaves the game feeling unfinished. Full transparency, played on a PS5, Quality Mode week after a release. Started the game on the third patch and ended it on the fourth.

    From all I have seen and heard, I thought my time would be much worse than it actually was. During my fifty hours with the game, I have experienced three crashes, one within three minutes of starting a new game.

    Quality mode means locked to 30fps. Grew up with a bad PC so 30fps was a luxury to me so that does not bother me, though I believe the complaint of paying 70$ for a new-gen game and getting only 30 is valid.

    I mean you can attempt 60 with the Performance mode but I would not recommend that. Even locked to 30 the game tanked way below that on Koboh, mainly in areas like Riverbed Watch and Untamed Downs. That on PS5 is straight garbage.

    So, Survivor eh? One of the best sequels that almost did not survive its release. I want to stress that I genuinely had a good time with the game while not invalidating the issues other people had. Though I can only rate my own experience. For me, just like the first game, this is a fantastic product held back by some of the most avoidable failures. What a shame.    … Expand

    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.
