    Star Wars: Tales from the Galaxy’s Edge takes full advantage of Sony’s PlayStation VR2, breathing new life into the game with updated visuals, awesome haptic feedback, and a story worth remembering.

    Whether you love Star Wars or not, Tales from the Galaxy’s Edge is just a damn good VR game. It’s not the longest (at around four hours), and it may not quite have as much “Jedi stuff” as you’d want, but again, it looks stunning, has fantastic feedback throughout, and even if you aren’t au-fait with the universe, you can be impressed by the attention to detail.

    Players should expect a slow start to Star Wars: Tales from the Galaxy's Edge, but will begin to flow better after a couple of hours. Once the pacing picks up, the Star Wars atmosphere, tense gun fights and fun excursions offer an experience that fits PS VR2 like a glove. It's a great game and recommended to owners of the hardware.

    Able to be entirely completed in just a few hours, it's certainly fair to say that Star Wars: Tales From The Galaxy's Edge Enhanced Edition is more of a morsel than a banquet and yet, it still feels compelling because of how lovingly authentic the universe of Star Wars has been replicated here. Though folks who aren't fans of Star Wars won't quite get quite so much from it, Star Wars: Tales From The Galaxy's Edge Enhanced Edition nonetheless earns its keep as an attractive showcase of what PSVR2 can do, all wrapped up in the delectable veneer of a galaxy far, far away.

    Star Wars: Tales from The Galaxy’s Edge – Enhanced Edition allows you to step into the franchise and use a range of iconic weaponry. Fans will love the faithful representation of the world and its inhabitants, however, the uninspiring opening and aging design hinder the experience.

    Star Wars: Tales from the Galaxy’s Edge Enhanced Edition is an excellent way to showcase the best features of a fancy new PlayStation VR2. The first few hours of the story are its Episodes I and II (bad) but then things turn around and immerse us in Star Wars greatness.

    Star Wars: Tales from the Galaxy’s Edge - Enhanced Edition starts out flat but does eventually get a bit better. You’ll need to trudge through a couple of hours of bland shooting galleries to get to the good stuff, though, and even then the title is largely let-down by repetitive encounters and some dated design decisions. The game takes decent advantage of PSVR2’s innovative features, but also underlines its Meta Quest 2 origins at times. And while there’s an unquestionable novelty to existing within George Lucas’ legendary universe, it feels like the license is doing a lot of the lifting for a mostly average adventure.

The game isI did enjoy Star Wars: Tales from the Galaxy’s Edge – Enhanced Edition a lot. It has old and new characters and nice stories. The game is about 2-4 hours long, so it isn’t a fully fledged game, but don’t worry, you’ll not be paying a full price either. Like some other games did (looking at you Horizon Call of the Mountain).

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. star wars tales from the galaxy's edge почти прошел игру. Там ещё длс с размером в игру.

    Что я могу сказать. Если смотреть на эту игру как игру по звездным войнами. То по сравнению от батл фронта там интересно стрелять и есть импакт от оружия хороший. Целиться действительно тяжело. Редко я пока что вижу игры без доводки.

    История начинается довольно не спешно, потом входит в этап некоторой самоидентификации, который потом перерастает в награду к концу в виде общения с с3по и р2д2 и личных квестов от них.

    Да слово квесты сразу выдало тут РПГ. Тут есть брифинг журнал и местной Вики. Сканер, рюкзак, лут, продавцы. Но опен ворлд, мало того, что кишкообразный с спавном врагов, он ещё сюжетно иногда заставляет тебя пройти ту же локацию, из-за чего кажется на бюджете экономили и не смогли создать ещё один уровень по стрелять.

    Но отсутствие бюджета скитается вообще по всей игре. Вначале на тебя вываливают за пол часа вообще все игровые механики и ещё за пол все боевые и потом дают 2-3 часа сюжета вообще без разнообразия в геймплее. Из-за чего вначале передоз, а потом недодоз. Радует что новых врагов каждые пол часа добавлять не забывают. Разнообразие консулось и оружия, потому его всего 3 + модификации нас каждого по одному.

    Чтобы тебе не было совсем скучно стрелять, добавлены разные виды Дронов помощников и гранаты. Но на нормале эти дроны бывает такая имба, что ты вообще не стреляешь по врагам. Как минимум потому что они тебя довольно быстро убивают и тебе нужны аптечки, потому ты часто прячешся, а враги не умеют реагировать нормально на 2 цели, и если стреляют по тебе их убивают дроны, а если по дронам, то когда их много, они сбивают внимания врага и торотлришь им в спину.

    Играть без Дронов можно, но тогда зачем нужна была эта механика?

    В общем, как шутер по за, это лучше что я видел, но из шутеров для вр, это пока худшее что я видел. При том что я не видел ранее РПГ в вр, мне сравнить не с чем, но удобство управления предметов в вр выглядит очень плохо и неудобно. Я за 2-3ч уже придумал как бы это дело упразднил и сделал удобнее, но пацаны спешили.

    Игра довольно сильно окупилась, потому пацаны выпустили бесплатное Длс в которое я ещё не играл, оно по длительности даже больше на час чем основной сюжет. Но судя по брифинг Вики, там просто новые локации и их теперь больше. Лишь один новый враг и одно новое оружие. Очень сомнительное разнообразие, но допустим.

    Игра не из тех, которые стоит включить другу, чтобы он попробовал вр, потому что механик общения с миром как у 2д порта в вр. Такое чувство что про вр люди подумали на пол пути, когда поняли что в 2д игру просто засрут.    … Expand

I tried restarting the chapter, but it wouldn't fix the issue, and frankly I couldn't care less because there was nothing even vaguely impressive about this sorry excuse of a VR experience. The maps are below average, the combat is not engaging, and saying 'you have zero motivation to finish the game' would be like saying nothing. To give you a clearer idea of what to expect, imagine Far Point VR devoid of any imagination, and Far Point to me was one of the greatest titles for the first PSVR.
    Such a shame PSVR2 is not backwards compatible.
    Avoid at all costs.    … Expand
