The game is Single Player action game and you play as Cal, a lone Padiwan setting out to destroy the Empire and re-build the Jedi Order. There's three main aspects to the gameplay parkour, combat, and puzzles. You'll not brutally run over the enemies kill them jump and swing to pass missions,

While you playing Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order you can customize your ship your best buddy BD-1 and of course your own outfit as well. With the experience you get from the missions you can get Improve your characters skills.. There's so much to stay about the game but you'll never get enough before you play it!

I would say the bosses felt a little weak ( I only played on Knight difficulty). They didn't really feel like bosses, just more standard enemies.
    I don't have too many complaints. One is the texture pop-in is absolutely horrendous, please fix. Also your attacks are very long and drawn out, and you aren't able to cancel them, so you are left exposed if you strike even a moment to early. And lastly, some of the climbing sections felt very spotty with their hit detection.
    Overall fantastic game    … Expand

    The game is great, up there with the 2003 Star Wars games. I went into it expecting a force unleashed type game but got something much better. The fighting is very dark souls like, you have to time your blocks, parries and attacks, which is very addictive and fun, I found myself constantly running back to harder enemies after death just to get more fighting in.

The fighting is very dark souls like, you have to time your blocks, parries and attacks, which is very addictive and fun, I found myself constantly running back to harder enemies after death just to get more fighting in. The lightsaber customisation is unreal too, you can change everything about Cals lightsaber, from colour to individual segments of the Saber, and (this can maybe be seen as a spoiler but it’s an item you find exploring) You can find a duel blades lightsaber attachment changing Cals fighting style completely and the way you need to play completely, which adds so much more. The exploration is great too, kind of like charted, fun and addictive also.

    Now sadly, on to the negatives; Sometimes I’m put off but some of the Human faces, particularly Cere, something about it seems unpolished, wether that be animation or Mocap or whatever it’s not massive though. I’ve found sometimes the lighting can be a bit off making the game look worse than it actually is. I wish the lightsaber had proper physics like in the Jedi Knight games, I.E. if your lightsaber touches a wall it burnt a hole in it and I wish we could cut the arms off storm troopers but that’s minor too. The game is a little unoriginal, which to me is fine It still plays and fits so well in starwars. The characters seem really rushed, I know I’ll learn more about them as I play more but I felt as if I could identify as Cal at first because of how fast things escalated, that’s really the main issue for me at the moment.
    Over all great game by respawn, hope EA sees how much people love it and will continue with single player starwars games.    … Expand

    A great mix of the exploration and puzzles of Tomb Raider and the combat of Sekiro. Has several difficulty levels which affect parry time, enemy aggressiveness and damage taken for those usually put off by a souls like combat system.Fantastic

Even if you’re not a Star Wars fan but love action/story games with fun combat and exploration, it’s definitely worth a shot. Gameplay wise, it combines the best elements of combat from games like; the Witcher, assassins creed, the force unleashed and dare I say a little bit of dark souls... The exploration is fantastic, it’s not quite open world but it’s definitely not linear, somewhere in between. There’s a significant amount of customisation options which is mainly focused on finding parts for your lightsaber. You can customise your spaceship and droid companion’s paint jobs which is a nice addition. The outfit customisation could be built on as the only options are your poncho material/design or main outfit colour. These are all found in chests hidden across the galaxy. I have to say I was sceptical of the game when first announced but I am now in love with it.… Expand

    Game looks beautiful and the story is well written. The gameplay is a fresh take for Star Wars, though is not innovative for gaming. It is quiet simular to Tomb Raider with some tombs and puzzle solving elements, which I personally didnt like as it slowed the story pacing. Other that one flaw for me ot was a solid game that is a must play.

I purchased Jedi: Fallen Order.

    And after having beaten it on Grandmaster difficulty and earned every achievement within a single playthrough...

    I can say that Disney, flexing it's corporate muscles by forcing EA to publish a single player focused game (since Battlefront 1 and 2 were flops), managed to give one of the better action adventure if not better Star Wars titles of the last decade... If not more.

    While under Kotor and the Jedi Outcast/Jedi Academy games (to myself at least), which hold a high station for me due to customization and nostalgia - plus, being great games in their execution, Respawn Entertainment's Jedi: Fallen Order is a solid, enjoyable romp through space. With a pretty decent combat system that's enhanced by force powers and unlockable skills.

    While it can be annoying (especially on Grandmaster difficulty) because of the way that they strategically arrange enemies with complementary skill sets, and the game is still new and buggy here and there. In just these last couple days they've been dropping patches and fixes that help fix things like long load times or texture flickering.

    I'd like to move on from the raw meat of the gameplay however:

    Jedi: Fallen Order also touches on some pretty hard subjects, rather tastefully in the relatively short time it has with us; loss - death of friends and loved ones. Failure and the mindset of defeat it creates. And being on a constant narrative backfoot...

    It leans a lot of what I think is successful on compelling characters, while potentially possessing cliches - the cliches of the Star Wars universe are used to great effect in creating believable, realistic characters that exist in a world that feels lived in, and voice acted brilliantly (almost all the time) with some pretty on-point mocap, to the point some quiet scenes with just facial expressions or eye flickering manage to convey quite a bit of emotion.

    It got to the point even I was getting misty eyed during various scenes - especially those that involved the darker subject matter.

    If you've been putting this off because it's an "EA" game, or because it's "Just another white, male, protagonist" I think that you should of course - air on the side of caution, but certainly experience what this game has to offer us.

    This game, despite having the stamp of "EA" on it - and seems to have been sent out to die to fit EA's "Gamer's aren't wanting Single Player narratives" similarly to Titanfall 2, this game - just as with the aforementioned title, feels much more like a Metroidvania Respawn Entertainment Title. EA has made it clear, they want live service games that can make them constant money, I believe that the critical and commercial success of this game has shown that the gaming world, if not just the Star Wars fans therein - will hopefully show all these companies who "know" what we want, that they're not correct - and that they should be LISTENING.    … Expand

The combat is complicated enough to keep in interesting but not as hard as something like Dark Souls. The enemy types keep coming as new with the last new enemy type being pretty close to the end of the game which helps keep it interesting because you have to fight each enemy type differently. The bosses are difficult enough to make you die once or a few times depending on the difficulty until you learn there combos. They change combos throughout the fight so when you get to the end they'll switch it up again and can catch you off guard. The lightsaber battles are probably the best fights though because who doesn't like a lightsaber battle. The story is strong and keeps you invested in the characters even the character who comes in a lot later. The story is probably the thing that makes this game so good in so many ways. The graphics are beautiful no matter what you're playing on, the environments you get to explore and the attention to detail there is is just magnificent. The sound is also good. Not just the ambient sound and sound of blaster fire and all the other sounds that come with wielding a lightsaber against an enemy, but also the soundtrack which adds to so many scenes and really adds to the tension of a fight or the way it adds to the drama of the game. It's all in all such a great game and really shows what happens when EA let's a developer do what they need to do to make a great story.… Expand

    What kind of fireworks will be released towards the end, really strong. Up front, I haven't played Tomb Raider, Uncharted or Dark Souls so far, the game was inspired by all of them.

    Gameplay
    That's why the gameplay was a refreshing experience for me and was really fun. Sometimes it is a bit imprecise, but that didn't really bother me.

    The fights feel unbelievably awesome as the progress continous, all the "combos" you can pull off, coupled with interesting opponent patterns and the right party system, strong.

    Finally there were puzzles to solve again, most of which are quite simple. Coming back to old planets, discovering chests, paths, etc. also motivated me incredibly. I also achieved relatively high exploration percentages in each case. The abbreviations were chosen very well for this, a travel system to the checkpoints would have made it too easy. By the way, the checkpoints are chosen very fairly (I played on the second level of difficulty.

    Atmosphere / graphics / performance
    You really get a lot of Star Wars on offer here, especially connoisseurs recognize some allusions here, which made my heart leap. The mystique and gloom in some areas was strongly staged, but there was more to it than that.

    Visually a stunner, at least mostly in terms of performance, there are a few drops in graphics mode, but found the "60fps" mode really bad to be honest.

    The music used discreetly but correctly. One or the other piece can be heard immediately.

    story
    I'm satisfied, although more depth would have been nice, but then there are some surprises on offer. Respawn has created a nice Star Wars experience here.

    Conclusion
    Finally EA, with great help from Respawn we finally got another great experience in the Star Wars universe, a must for every fan. I am happy and now wish for a great RPG (with a crew) in Star Wars guise and the latest technology.
    Subjectively 10/10 Objectively I fluctuate between 8/10 9/10 but opt ​​for 9/10.

    May the force be with you.    … Expand

    Jedi Fallen Order is one of the best games in the Star Wars franchise and one of the best games of 2019. It has some sore spots, but the story, characters, worlds, and combat more than make up for its shortcomings. Fans of Star Wars will love it. Fans of action/adventure games will have a fantastic time. It is great to finally see Respawn branch out and get a chance to craft something they clearly have a passion for. This is not a game to be missed and gives me hope for the future of the series.
