    This game is insane.

    the sequel is perfect, both the story and the writing, the fights, the whole game is perfect. Congratulations Respawn and EA. But i want dark on the dark side…

    I'll start by saying that the hate I see for this game is 100% unjustified.

    Gorgeous, rewarding, and fun. This game makes me excited for the Star Wars franchise again. Any technical hiccups truly don’t hinder the gameplay experience. It’s very impressive!

    Well, what can I say.
    The gameplay and mechanics are great and fun. However, the game has clear problems: again and again the image stops for a few milliseconds and the frame rate constantly decreases (in quality mode and in performance mode). In addition, there are partly false light effects and false representation of different textures. It's not unplayable and also fun, but especially    Well, what can I say.

The game may have some optimization bug, but once I've played it, I think that leaving aside the possible bugs that I found, it tells a very good story. They have been able to continue the story of the previous game very well, the combat feels very successful and graphically it is very good. I like that they left an open ending for a possible third game in the future.… Expand

One more point to criticize is that you dont know if it wants to be a Dark Souls game in the Star Wars universe or if it wants to be an adventure game. All in all still a very good game. If they manage to fix the performance issues this will be a straight 9/10. I know this is the gaming industry and everyone complains about everything forever but I dont mind that.… Expand

    Overall, fails to live up to the hype and is a prime example of style over substance. It is a shallow and uninspired experience that left me with a bitter taste in my mouth . Save yourself the disappointment and invest your time and money elsewhere.

    Not sure what people are talking about performance, crashes and bugs. Unlikely they're actually playing on PS5. Playing it on Quality mode, never experienced any bugs or crashes. Performance is adequate.
    Other than that, great game.

    Just WOW!!! So I got Game Pass just before this games release so I could play Fallen Order while Survivor downloads. I played FO on my old rig but didn’t have a good time as it didn’t perform well. FO was amazing on my new computer and I couldn’t wait to dive into Survivor… but I never expected this!!!

    Sure I also had a bit of performance issues, but overall the game ran even better than    Just WOW!!! So I got Game Pass just before this games release so I could play Fallen Order while Survivor downloads. I played FO on my old rig but didn’t have a good time as it didn’t perform well. FO was amazing on my new computer and I couldn’t wait to dive into Survivor… but I never expected this!!!

    Sure I also had a bit of performance issues, but overall the game ran even better than FO. I’ve made a ton of tweaks, including capping the game at 40 FPS and honestly it’s seamless now! Tracking the FPS with Rivia Tuner and it literally DOES NOT MOVE no matter what happens on screen! It’s INSANE! Now… truly, the more I play the more I’m freaking out! This game improves on every aspect of the first one, in spectacular ways!!! From the story, to the pacing, to the level design and especially combat! It’s **** insane!!! Every time I think I’m getting the hang of it, a new boss comes along, or I unlock new gear or abilities. Or the story takes me to a moon and back!!! I’m truly so, so amazed by this game. At it’s core, IT’S FUN!!!

    The added insane level of customisation just adds that extra layer that makes the immersion so much better. Every time I am about to embark on a new journey to a new area, I kit my Cal out with an appropriate outfit to enhance my experience. It just adds to the cinematic when Cal seems to fit into the situation with what he’s wearing. I love it!! If I’m expecting a big fight, we do a bun, otherwise we have the hair loose for some exploring. The added physics in the hair and clothes are just supreme!

    From playing the Hologram mini game, to just now unlocking the Bounties… I just had to come on here and share my experience. They fixed my performance issues with the first patch, and I can play with nearly every setting on Epic, at a PERFECT 40 FPS. Which feels buttery smooth and responsive. I have zero stutter, frame drops or lag now. My PC also stays much cooler now having capped the frame rate to a nice middle ground. I do wish it had DLSS though, as then I’d be able to max everything and turn on Ray Tracing. I have a 3070 in my MSI laptop. But honestly that all feels like overkill as my current experience is flawless.

    I’m not even a Star Wars fan, like at all. So this whole world and the lore is all new to me. And it’s AMAZING!!! From the performances by the cast, the EPIC music, the detailed and beautifully constructed worlds. This game is an absolute joy to play! It’s challenging in all the right ways, the rewards feel meaningful. And exploring almost always has a nice pay off.

    This game is 10 times the game Fallen Order was, and that game was GOOD. But this, this is on another level! I can not wait to see where the story goes. I’m only 20 hours in now! I just came back from Jedha. I am sorry to the people who worked on this game to have it review bombed the way that it was. However I’m taking notes from how things have gone with releases the past few years, adding about a month or two after release before I jump in, so the kinks can be ironed out. However with Survivor, you guys pretty much fixed every issue I was was having with that initial patch, which came days after release. So thanks for that.

    PHENOMENAL GAME!!! Holy **** Thank you to everyone involved! This truly is so, so much fun!!! I never expected it to be THIS GOOD!!! Nor that I’d have this much fun playing it. Feels like it’s been years since I’ve played a game where literally every aspect has so much love and care in it, that the entire experience just becomes legendary!

    A truly massive and a grossing experience! There are certainly stuttering issues, especially when the game enters cutscenes, but it's not bad at all.

It's one of those games I think about playing when I am not playing it. Points deducted just because somehow the souls-like elements of this game still feels somewhat half-baked, and I still absolutely dislike the map and navigation systems. Put me a clear path forward if I want it, similar to Dead Space's awesome navigation.

    I have to be honest, the user scores totally surprised me on this one. They've been going downhill for a while but the number of zeros here are just a joke. To think, I actually used to sort games by user review to see something I might have missed! Well, those days are LONG gone. I don't even bother filtering by user scores anymore, it's just two laughably inaccurate based on the complaint culture that's taken over gaming. If you're a Star wars fan, if you like RPGs, if you like action games, you're going to want to check this one out! Don't even think twice. If you're reading this then it's on sale.    … Expand

    Building on everything I liked from Fallen Order, jedi Survivor has been an enjoyable experience for a good 30-40 hours in the Platinumed playthrough.

    Wishing the game ran a lot better, definitely would be a 9 from me if they had it running and looking a lot better. But that did not hold back my enjoyment. Some great easter eggs for myself as a Star Wars fans.
    Definitely recommend for enjoyers of Fallen Order or Star Wars fans in general who enjoy adventure games.
    Does not remind me of a "souls game" at all, however this has no bearing on my score, I did not play it for it to be "souls-like".

    Jedi Survivor is an incredible game. Were there bugs, sure. What game doesn't, especially a Star Wars game. 2 Complaints; #1. It was short and not many planets. Tho not every story needs to jump to so many planets, I guess. #2. Single Lightsaber stance should be double press left or right and keep its own abilities. You should always be able to go back to single stance. So yes, it was aJedi Survivor is an incredible game. Were there bugs, sure. What game doesn't, especially a Star Wars game. 2 Complaints; #1.

    I’ve never written a review for a game in my life, but considering the overwhelming negative reviews this game is getting, I felt compelled to write something positive. I understand people are frustrated that the game has performance issues, but the game itself shouldn’t be getting bad reviews because of that—the game developer should.

I understand people are frustrated that the game has performance issues, but the game itself shouldn’t be getting bad reviews because of that—the game developer should. I played on PS5 and I only had one small hiccup where the game crashed within the first 3-4 hours of the game, and then after that, I never had another issue.

    But then again, I’m sure my opinion is irrelevant since I’m not a hardcore gamer. I don’t spend thousands of dollars on gaming hardware, and I don’t even really know the difference between 30 fps vs. 60 fps. I’m just an average millennial that still gets amazed when I play a game that looks super realistic.

    With that being said, I just finished the game, and…wow. It was AMAZING, in my opinion. The story was great, the acting was great, the gameplay was great, and the visuals were stunning. Throughout like, half of the game (probably more), I kept thinking that even though I liked this game a lot, I preferred Jedi Fallen Order more. However, the ending completely changed my perspective and I still can’t get over how good that ending was.

    If anyone reads this review, I’m sure you’ll think I’m some sort of shill, or EA employee, but I’m really just an average, occasional gamer who thinks this game is getting a lot of unnecessary flak.    … Expand

    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.
