This was a good game, but your launcher is taking that fun away.. one of the most useless and annoying feature ever that no one even asked for. Do better...

Disappointing

Nothing to complain about this game at all: great combat, stunning visuals, great controls, convenient menu, it just feels so good to play that I don't wanna put it down. Furthermore, this game somehow manages to capture the soul of the souls-like genre even much better than Nioh 1 and 2 do in terms of exploration. Very recommended if you love souls-like like myself

An amazing game crippled by a mandatory EA app that will not work a good portion of the time, and even if it is working you can't play Mass Effect or SW Jedi Fallen Order (single player games) without an internet connection and the EA servers being responsive. The EA app is utter trash and makes me contemptuous of this purchase of a game I otherwise love. If you do buy anything from EA, expect playing it to be more difficult than it has any right to be, and to simply be unavailable to you half the time because of issues with their app and servers. Find some other way to play it if you can, EA want's your money but does not care about your convenience or ability to play what you have paid for.

I personally liked the game, it contains a variety of alien worlds and fauna which I found appealing. The utter lack of directions was something I disliked. All in all, a solid 7/10

Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order really surprised me. I’m not a big fan of the Star Wars movies, but the universe has always intrigued me. I had no real expectations for this game, but I just couldn’t stop playing.

Jedi Fallen Order delivers an immersive experience from start to finish. Let’s start with the story. The story is interesting and has some nice plot twist and good cinematic's. You meet interesting characters along the way with which you build a real relationship. The story brings you to some unique and beautiful locations and although there are not a lot of planets you travel to, that’s not necessarily a bad thing. As the story progresses, you unlock new mechanics to travel to places you couldn’t before. This makes it so that each time you come back to a previously visited planet, you can travel to completely new parts of the map and the maps itself are quite varied in terms of environments.

Jedi Fallen Order is a Souls-like game but not nearly as hard as the famous Souls-like games like Dark Souls, Elden Ring etc. You notice it mostly in the fact that you need to find mediation sights to save the game and refill heals, which will also act as respawn points for when you die. and of course there is some focus on blocking and learning enemy movement patterns, but it’s really not that hard in this game. The focus of this game is more story with some bosses, instead of bosses with some story. So the times you really encounter a boss that takes multiple tries to defeat is countable on 1 hand.

Throughout the game you earn skill points, get stronger and learn new moves and mechanics. You can find cosmetic items to customize your lightsaber and ship and all of this together combined with the earlier mentioned environments, gives the game lots of progression.

I really enjoyed playing Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order. It's not often I play a single-player game this much in such a short amount of time, but I just kept coming back and every time I had just 10 minutes, I found myself booting up the game to just play a little bit.

This is the Star Wars game I was looking for.

Everything about this game (well except traversal in zeffo) is amazing. The highlight of this game would be the gameplay, never having played a souls-like game before so it took me some frustration at first to figure out how combat actually works. But once you master more abilities, fighting through waves of enemies is way too fun (and challenging). The platforming and camera angles can be annoying at times but is fun when they work. The story and lore is interesting especially in the beautifully made worlds to explore. It presented me with different aspects of the Star Wars lore I was never aware of. Soundtrack is nothing special but the good sound design made the game more fun on my 5.1 system. Game runs well and is graphically amazing.

With about 20 hours for the main story and about 80% of the collectables, I wish there was more. Nevertheless, I would highly recommend this game to any Star Wars fan or anyone who loves action games. Looking forward to Jedi Survivor.

Pretty cool story, great characters. It has souls-like combat with puzzles and climbing mechanics that are reminiscent of the God of War series.

Jedi knight still way more fun.
I wanted to be a jedi, use multiple powers and go on a adventurem intead i get a cardboard mc on a lame plot that we all know how its going to end.

Sure, Star Wars overdose is a thing and EA deserves some (a lot) of dislike, but this is a genuinely good game. The story is engaging if simple, the characters are decent and the gameplay is good, making you feel like your skills are getting stronger throughout the game. Playing a Jedi is fun when it's well done, and the game achieves that. No complaints, I had a good time.

Using the saber and parrying feels satisfying. But everything else is just meh.

Hopping from cutscene to cutscene.
Collectibles on every corner, needlessly fueling FOMO.
A story that did not catch me after 2h of playing it.
Glitches and visual artifacts in a game from a "AAA" studio.
And of course a RPG system with XP and unlocking new abilites, how creative.

Also: A level design that suggests freedom...but only where EA allows it, e.g. only being able to climb at specific spots, even though other spots look climbable, too.

The game tries to be several different things at the same time and does a pretty decent job.
So let's review them each of them on their own:

as a Soulslike:
Since you are a Jedi, you fight a lot of comparably weak opponents, eg Stormtroopers. Therefore the game usually throws a bunch of them at you at the same time. This works.

The soulslike is very accessible (a necessity for a game with such a wide focus), that includes difficulty settings. Those are not merely damage taken and dealt, but also a slider for how strict your timing needs to be. (I have not played Another Crabs' Treasure yet but all future Soulslike should copy at least that).

There is barely any "RPG" in it - there are upgrade points, but they are mostly tied to learning a few single moves or make a few of them a little stronger. New abilities are mostly learned by progressing through the game. You can upgrade your health and Force points, and can find more refillable healing items.

Dodging did not really work for me - you have a "small dodge", which often was not enough, and a roll dodge, for which you have to press the button price. Then you are too far away for a counter attack. Blocking/countering with the light sabre was more fun anyway.

as a Tombraider-like/3D-Metroidvania
You explore exotic planets, learn new things and access new areas. Many locations have to be visited at least twice, so you can use the new ways to access new areas.

There are very few puzzles included. Those are either rather easy or can be solved by just trying the things the game allows you to do. There is also a hint system (you can ask your robot for a hint), which I did not need.

The backtracking has been critized often, so I expected much worse. Yes, you have to go back after finishing whatever you came to do. In soulslike-fashion the paths somehow loop back, so it is usually not that far and sometimes the new shortcuts are fun themselves or you are chased while hurrying back. Sometimes it is unclear what is the best way. There is a map, which helps. (The sequel has quick travel.)

as a cineastic Star Wars spectacle
Lots of cameos, cross-references and what not to other Star Wars media, from Rebels to whatever the last trilogy was called.
Various types of stormtroopers, AT-STs and many more really fit well into the game.

There is a bunch of "videogamey" things, which do not mesh well with the setting. And I do not mean that you find in enemy bases parts you need to upgrade the robot, could not get in any other way (you have a spaceship), recognize in an instant and upgrade the robot while stormtropers are around the corner, which should be looking for him. This brings me to my biggest - although still very mild - gripe: Most places include a lot - and I mean really a lot - of bottomless pits. Everywhere, even inside villages and bases. And then you have a single storm trooper standing around on a floating island in the air, unclear how they could have gotten there without double jumping or jetpack. While 3 island further 5 more storm troopers are doing exactly the same. But as I said, it has to work as a video game, and that it does.

In regards of cineastic quality, it has in the beginning, the middle and the end very good scripted parts, and all the locations look very good, scenic and different.

The story is also good, the ending is coherent and makes sense, although it is without much fanfare. The inner conflicts of the characters are plausible and fitting, although lack on the narrative side.

Resume
As said, it does many different things, all at least decent.
So overall, it is a clear recommendation. It does not really excel in anything, but it does not have any weaknesses either.

It was okay. Never lets you forget you're playing a game. Extremely middling story and characters. Lack of fast travel is frustrating. Finished the main campaign and about 90% exploration in under 25 hours. Don't pay more than five bucks for this.

games cool, plays great, graphics look amazing, but dont get if you arent into puzzle games. Plus the game is HORRIBLE on telling you where to go, even straight off the first planet if you go one way, you will be put against a giant frog boss you cant kill instead. if you go x or x you will just go in circles. Had to look it up and its apparently pretty common for others to be confused, and theirs a lot of puzzle ish annoying minigames you have to solve, which is just kinda stupid to advance on imho.
if you dont mind puzzle-type games in between or puzzle solving, then its a really good game, and the whole lack of direct routes to take, and having to figure it out on your own. I personally hate wasting x amount of time out of my day figuring out puzzles or routes on a combat based game, so i say not a recommend.

It was much easier for me to play this on Xbox controller. I really don't know why. I owned the game on EA, but bought it here on Steam since it's so cheap atm for the holidays. i had struggled a bit with it on keyboard and mouse, so this time I thought I'd try controller, and wow, as I said, for me it is definitely MUCH better!!! I played it through a bit rushed because my friend Oghurd and I are playing Jedi: Survivor in the evenings atm and i wanted to know the back story. Finished the game last night. :) It was pretty good except for one big question I have, but it's a spoiler so i will go do an external search to learn more. :D Anyway, definitely worth a buy while on sale!

Don't understand the hype around the game.

Played until the end a while ago but utterly forgettable. I do remember I was pushing myself in the final third of the game of how repetitive it was - shallow environmental platforming everywhere which bored me to death which makes it a repay unimaginable. I was rolling my eyes by the 10h time you have to squeeze between some gap with slowed movement, and I can't understand what was the point of it all. Surely there's better ways to make you feel like a badass Jedi exploring the planet instead of holding the analog stick to climb and squeeze through at a snail's pace.

Everyone talks about the difficulty of the game, but the difficulty is fabricated by inflated health bars and increased damage taken, not by any complexity or strategy of the combat itself. You can have some inter-connectivity with the moves or enemy density, but not so much.

It feels like a much worse Souls game, and the story, exploration, characters all pale in comparison to a FromSoft game. Even though the Souls games don't have necessarily complex combat, there's at least a lot more going on in terms of strategy, preparation, statuses, enemy types and move sets, surprises, spells and your character's growth. Although there is a cool boss near the end for SW fans, Cal is boring, the cast is boring and the writing is boring. I didn't have fun and felt as though I wasted my time.

the graphics were amazing i set everything to max at 1080p and my games still ran smoothly. the story were masterpiece I LIKE IT. unfortunately the game was hard to beat for me maybe because im bad, i barely beat bosses fight on jedi knight difficulty. i could reached 25+ hours if i dared to explore every planet but no im too lazy for that. great game but i would't play it for the second time. 8/10.

If you like jumping, jumping, and more jumping, with about 10% combat. Go for it, otherwise, don't waste your cash nor time.

This game is so good that it doesnt even seem an EA game, beautiful graphics, nice performance, very fun gameplay and nice story.
This is what a Star Wars game should be, recommended if you like the franchise and, if u dont, u sure will have a great time if u like souls-like.

EA play prevents offline play for my steam deck. Gatekeeping my purchased singleplayer game. Otherwise pretty fun game, from now on I won't be supporting EA.

So far it feels like a chore to play, but I had expected to love it.
Sure it looks amazing, but it feels like a dev checked all the boxes to make players collect check points and items but that in itself feels empty and void of the SW magic. Aside from that you could say that its more realistic that there are very few encounters in the wilds on visited planets. But it takes so long to run from your landed ship thru a series of caverns and puzzles till you finally arrive to the seemingly half way point. It just feels like a slog fest of boredom. It hurts to play this.

Instead of as in the movies where they arrive at the scene of the action, they instead film the characters landing and walking across the planet to prepare to get to Jabba's Palace. You parked so far away, even though there was plenty of room to park up close and no enemies nearby.

TLDR: The other games are fast paced action. This game is a walking simulator with platforming elements to slow you down even further. Your character likes to take the long route as a negative character trait.

Poor mans Sekiro. It really scratches the star wars itch though; cool alien worlds, some good lightsaber action, and great atmosphere.

With how stagnant the star wars franchise has become since the Disney acquisition; This game makes star wars feel special and new again. A solid souls-like Jedi game with characters and a narrative that were actually planned out with story arcs and character development that unfold in an organic way.

My only criticism would be that the biomes feel a little small and maze like in an almost contrived way (Zeffo and Dathomir in particular). But this does not take away from the overall enjoyment of the game unless you are achievement hunting.

My first console controller game - I'm basically in this for the story... As an 'old fart' this has been a great introduction to the controls, the skills are introduced at a steady pace while progressing the story, so suits me well as a newby. Only just learnt how to wall run, so a long way to go... I like it so far and would recommend to original Star Wars fans who saw the originals in theatres.

Awesome game. Starts strong, gameplay is tight, combat is fluid, everything looks beautiful and the music is amazing, and it has a satisfying conclusion. Don't let "souls-like" tags scare you off, it's not white-knuckle frustratingly difficult unless you want it to be and set difficulty to the max and there's also a "story" difficulty that trivializes most battles if the game does prove to be too challenging.

I sorta enjoy when Star Wars games are the knockoff version of whatever genre of game they're trying to emulate. Like, Empire at War is "the Star Wars RTS." Knights of the Old Republic is "the Star Wars RPG." There are Star Wars FPSes, TPSes, fighting games, etc.

Fallen Order is apparently "the Star Wars Dark Souls." Or perhaps it's "the Star Wars Uncharted." We're already obliquely hinting at the conflict here: a series of games known for replayability and emergent gameplay butting up against a series of games known for their linear narratives. Fallen Order feels uneven because it can't commit to just being one thing: it tries to be both series and comes up short because the things that people like about those series are either severely constricted or missing.

For example. I play Dark Souls because I enjoy the possibility of experimentation with different playstyles, weapons, different stats on level-up--things missing from Fallen Order, as Cal is given a very paltry upgrade tree that's the same for every player everywhere. I play Uncharted because I like a focused narrative, passable writing, memorable characters--things I also find are lacking in Fallen Order, given how small and rinky-dink the stakes and plot are. Multiple inflection points in the story really pissed me off (Vader showing up, the smug ending, the fact that Cal has no say in anything he's forced to do, how lousy and useless your companions are) that it became an exercise in attrition to make it through to the end. Very disposable.

New to gaming and this was my second game I’ve played all the way through and beat. Some of the puzzles were a bit challenging, but overall a pretty fun game!

Too much unnecessary, repeating puzzle solving that adds no value to the game and is only there to pad the game hours. In between these puzzles are rigid rock paper scissors combat with enemies that are either way too weak or wholly overkill for the progression.
Also if you don't have a controller, this game is a hard pass.

First of all, I'd like to provide some background: I'm someone who has played almost EVERY star wars game. From star wars on the snes to the most recent ones (apart from survivor and that starship one that came out a few years ago), which means I have plenty of knowledge to judge the universe. Not just about the games, but even about the legends stories and other things. That said, let's get to the review:

Gameplay - The game has an... intriguing gameplay. The parry and dodge systems are amazing, however, when it comes to those regular enemies (not bosses), they don't provide a good experience for the player. I've played the game on grandmaster and without picking up any extra regen items (I've only played with the original 2), so the game was probably harder for me than it will be for you, however, something I felt throughout the journey was the unnatural lack of real danger while exploring the worlds. Everything is rather... If the enemies aren't packed together, regardless of who you are, you won't have any trouble facing them, but as they are stuck together, it's not so strange that you choose to run away rather than fight. Apart from that, all the bosses that use the force, i.e. the ninth sister, second sister and Malicos, provide great fights. I enjoyed them all. You really need to understand each of their attacks and their patterns. Parrying an entire sequence and killing them as if it was a no damage run was kinda normal for me, but that's because the gameplay was intuitive enough in those situations. In short, the gameplay is good for bosses with lightsabers, but it doesn't work properly on other occasions (not to mention that apart from the second sister, the rest of the bosses are a bit easy too. It took me about 3 hours to kill the second sister, but I didn't even come close to needing a similar amount of time for other bosses).

Soundtrack - It's okay. When they play the 'classic tracks' from the franchise it's amazing, but those that are 100% original to the game are... okay. You probably won't remember them once you've finished, but they're good enough not to put people off because of that.

Story - The game's story is simple and effective. The cast of characters is small and there's a lot of room for development but... apart from Cal and Merrin, the others hardly 'matter'. I mean, Cere is important to the story, but the dialog with her is so 'inorganic' and forced that I honestly couldn't see her as a 'character'. The same goes for the ship's owner. They had everything to develop this aspect properly, but in the end they didn't manage it.

Game design - I usually don't talk about this, but I thought it was necessary to mention it here. The game design of this game is HORRIBLE. The planets aren't intuitive at all and getting lost in some places is NORMAL. It's all very ''similar'' and '''bland'''. There are even some interesting areas within the game, but overall, I would never recommend it because of the game design (I hope the survivor has improved this).

Overall - It's an average game, with a functional story and good moments. Unfortunately, most of it is mediocre, and the characters, apart from Cal and Merrin, aren't charismatic at all and some of the dialog is... God, I can't believe a human could write something so crude. I'd recommend playing it if you're a Star Wars fan or want to do those 3 incredible battles that I described earlier. In any case, buy it on a good sale.

A lot of backtracking, at first it's not a problem but after few hours it's just tedious, combat is okay but you dont really feel like jedi when you fight frogs and other little creatues. Story is meh, once you complete it you don't want to play anymore, even if there is new game+. I don't recommend but if you are star wars fan you should try.

Not optimised for PC
AMD Ryzen 5 3600X
AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT

Low graphic settings running at 90%

Fun game. Surprised how the level design rather stole the show. The lighting is very well done in this game and is a big player in the gameplay. Fallen Order is allso pleasantly challenging, even only on the 2nd hardest difficulty. An experienced DS player will find it very easy on 2nd hardest, but the hardest setting feels like it's in a good place, to me.

Boring as hell...
Combat is dull, customization is a joke and the story is poor.
Even at 5$ it is a lost of money!

This game delivers an immersive experience that blends exploration, combat, and storytelling into an unforgettable journey, capturing the essence of being a Jedi by balancing intense lightsaber duels with deep lore and emotional storytelling.

tomb wars souls. imagine tomb raiders exploration, with star wars lore and world and souls combat and shit optimisation. solid experience with a quality story (as expected from the star wars IP). there's alot of sekiro influence in here which i really like, but i wish that the parry was literally the same as in sekiro. parrying feels like shit in this game, dodge instead. more locations and less backtracking wouldve been cool too.

I could never understand why Star Wars has been so popular for decades. Lucas created a generic world by copying everything he was exposed to in his life. The only thing I find cool in that universe are the lightsabers and, to some extent, the Jedi. Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is exactly about that. And when you add the Dark Souls formula, you get a great title. The game looks beautiful, and the characters are likable. I’d especially highlight the relationship between the boy and the little robot; they are really charming and credit goes to the writers for how well they wrote them. Aside from The Empire Strikes Back, this is the only thing I’ve liked in this mega-giga franchise so far.

4/5

Good story, hard bosses, and lots of time wasted.

Excellent game. I streamed it to the steam deck and played it start to finish with no issues. Really enjoyed all aspects of it. The sound, game-play, gfx are top notch and the ended was excellent. I recommend this to anyone looking for a controller game to chill-out with.

the game is good, level design is great and fun to explore.
must play in jedi master or jedi grandmaster difficulty for souls-like experience

the worst thing is just EA Launcher, its fckin annoying
overall good, worth to buy when on sale

This game is truly a masterpiece, from the immersion to the graphics to the gameplay. There are some bugs, but nothing extreme that would make you dislike the game. I recommend this to both Star Wars fans and non-Star Wars fans. 8/10.

Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is an engaging action-adventure game that masterfully blends lightsaber combat, exploration, and storytelling. Developed by Respawn Entertainment, it follows Cal Kestis, a young Jedi on the run after Order 66, as he grapples with his past and the Empire's relentless pursuit.

The game excels in its combat mechanics, offering a satisfying mix of skill-based lightsaber duels and Force-powered abilities. The exploration is reminiscent of Metroidvania games, with expansive, interconnected worlds that reward curiosity and backtracking as new abilities unlock. The narrative is well-written, filled with compelling characters and emotional stakes, capturing the essence of Star Wars.

However, the game isn't without flaws. Some platforming sections can feel clunky, and occasional performance issues, like frame drops, may disrupt immersion. Despite this, Fallen Order is a must-play for fans of the galaxy far, far away and anyone who enjoys a story-driven action game.

Rating: 8.5/10

Awful user experience. Why does a single player game require me to have an EA account to play? And I definitely don't want to install another bloated (and not to mention buggy) launcher on my PC just to play a game I purchased on Steam. Even if there are workarounds for this, it's not worth it. EA has completely ruined what may have otherwise been a phenomenal game; I'll never know. I can only imagine once I got into the game, it would have been filled to the brim with micro-transactions. Bought this on a deep discount, and I still didn't think it was worth the annoyance.

EA Games are like an abusive relationship.
You forget why you broke up, convince yourself it could not have been that bad and try again.
And very soon you remember again why you broke up.
The EAApp is a pain in the ass.
It also does not tell you that you need to have it installed in order to play this on steam.
20 Euros of the prices right there.
The game itself is beautiful but optimized for controller, making it somewhat more difficult, and frustrating, on keybaord and mouse.
-5 Euros.
You cannot realize customize your character other than cosmetics, i.e. the skilling is limited to what force abilities you select. I would have like something more like KOTR.

Anyways, quite shallow game that would have been called "jump and run" decades ago.
Got this for 4 Euros.
If you have to pay more than 15 € don't.

I'm a big SW fan and dont really like the FPS trend that everyone else plays 24/7. So the solo playability of this game is something that I really, really enjoy.

10/10 - Graphics (though it does have a bit of lag on a non-top tier rig. I also encountered fatal errors when
attempting to lower graphics settings.)
10/10 - Combat and Combat Mechanics (all that you would expect from a Jedi)
9/10 - for solo play (Not 10 ONLY because it has no additional content added after release. The campaign
is pretty long, but it could always be longer.)
0/10 - for multiplayer, as there is none (which I frankly dont miss at all.)

quite unplayable (at least on amd, with damn near best in slot). Could see this game being really fun and tried real hard to get it to stay at a minimum 45 frams with mods and cpu settings but the game constantly freezes and stutters in every encounter, cut scene, battle, and anything inbetween. It was incredibly annoying for such a high profile game. Wish I could be surprised but its a common theme for pc ports :/

I debated on whether or not to thumbs up or down, then i remembered its EA and forces u to use the app and all that garbage so yea automatic thumbs down. The game in itself is only OK. NOT great, NOT bad, just mid. I think everyone is so starved for good games that they are quick to say a mid tier game is awesome. Only get this on sale at 3.99, anything higher and you might be more disappointed.

The major gaming industry, represented by EA, is churning out yet another mediocre product. And this is supposedly "one of the better games in the Star Wars universe" compared to the new "Outcast"? If "Jedi: Fallen Order" is considered a good game, then I have no idea what’s happening to gaming. Almost everything here is bad: mediocre dialogues, dumb and illogical scenes, pathetic "mass battles." This game embodies the degradation of gaming over the last decade.

"Mass battles" are nothing more than clunky, one-sided use of an AT-AT walker with stiff explosions and lifeless enemy destruction. A "mass battle" consists of 2-3 enemies and one large beast or a single walker, where all you do is press the same button repeatedly. The fight against an AT-ST on the planet Zeffo, even on the highest difficulty, can be won while standing in one spot.

Look at games from before 2010 with limited technology: Star Wars Battlefront, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. The mass battles there, the effects—those truly felt like war, and you genuinely felt like a Jedi. Here, it doesn’t feel like the Empire is overwhelming or that you are the last Jedi. Instead, a couple of enemies come at you, and on the hardest difficulty, they kill you in 1-2 hits if you don’t dodge or block their attacks. In open areas, you might fight 2-3 stormtroopers, but across the street or on another tower, the other bots won’t even see you and only start fighting once you approach them.

EA’s managers seem to have decided to turn this game into an Uncharted-like experience with puzzles and jumping mechanics. I’d rather just play Uncharted than this watered-down "Jedi Uncharted."

The optimization is pretty poor that there are lags even when nothing is happening on the screen. The game does have beautiful water effects, rivers, and environments—this shows EA’s priorities. The most important thing is GRAPHICS, and then they’ll slap a terrible storyline onto it.

An example of a poor storyline:

You rescue your friend, and he finds out you’re a Jedi on the run. No one else finds out, and you casually return home on a train. The train has multiple wagons, but suddenly, out of nowhere, the train stops, and Imperial soldiers board your wagon. They ask everyone to step out for inspection. In your wagon, there were over 6-7 or more people, plus the other train wagons, but ONLY 5-6 people from YOUR wagon step out in an open space in the hill. Then an Imperial woman from your diversity HR department with a muscular chad appears and starts asking about the fugitive Jedi.
WHY NOW? WHY YOUR WAGON AND NOT THE WHOLE TRAIN? WHERE IS THE LOGIC? HOW THEY KNEW THAT YOU WERE THERE?
Your friend then starts talking like Lenin about the exploitation of the proletariat by capital. He gets killed, and you pull out your lightsaber, BUT INSTEAD OF KILLING YOU, THEY THROW YOU OFF A CLIFF SO YOU CAN SAVE YOURSELF BY GRABBING ONTO THE TRAIN AND THE STORY OF YOUR MEIN KAMPF BEGINS.

This nonsensical string of "coincidences" happens constantly. They didn’t even bother with the script or dialogues. Also the cutscenes CAN’T BE SKIPPED and they obligate you to watch it. The battle seems more like Dark Soul with 1-2-3 stormtrooper rather than a Jedi battle.

In short, a complete waste of money, and I will never buy another EA game again. I fell for the "very positive review" without checking the gameplay and the story in youtube. The put characters from the movie for the hype. At level of gameplay, cutscenes and stuff -- it´s a degradation compared to old games from 2000-2012. You have just a fancy graphic.

Urgh, no wonder it was $5.... Backtracking galore, repetitive gameplay, typical DS clone

FANTASTIC opening, which is a COMPLETE LIE for the gameplay that follows... which is typical DS boring bullshit. Horrible placement of shrines/grace/meditation/other bullshit names which require pontless traversale, before death, and repeat. Fucking boring. Slow loading between deaths further frustrates any sense of progress.

Barely worth the price for the actual gameplay
