Great game
Good price and great quality. This game it by far (in my opinion) the best game I’ve played in a long while, and the graphics are great! A definite play for any Star Wars fans!
4.0 out of 5 stars Good when you get into it.
Purchased it for 20.
A number of reviews have flagged up that there is a lot of jumping around and ledges which gets annoying. I started to find this early in the game, however as it progressed this seemed to be less of an issue and you get to enjoy all the new powers that open up as the game progresses.
Enjoyed playing through, but I’m not sure it’s worth replaying through again.
A must buy
Quality game.
Brilliant level design.
Great visuals.
Superb combat.
Excellent and varied environments.
Nice difficulty curve.
Likeable protagonists.
Interesting villians.
Amazing story that fits into to the starwars timeline. Certainly a better story than the last 3 movies.
Best cheap divorce since Witcher 3
It’s the only game that’s kept him occupied like this since W3, so it must be good. From what I can see when passing, the graphics look beautiful, and it seems to have a nice plot that doesn’t get tired when playing up levels.
5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant story amazing dark souls gameplay
If you’ve heard it once you’ve heard it 100 times. This game is the dark souls of Star Wars.
That isn’t just a simple description it literally is.
But that is not a bad thing in fact it is a great thing.
The combat is some of it not the best lightsaber combat I have ever played.
Taking down groups of storm troopers feels amazing.
The exploration and hidden collectibles around the maps are great.
The story is very engaging and a good addition to the Star Wars lore.
One of my favourite parts of the game is I really felt like a Jedi who overtime became a better warrior the progression and story matched perfectly.
It is about 10 hour plus game depending on skill level.
If you like Star Wars and dark souls get this game.
5.0 out of 5 stars Lightsaber Tomb Raider.
Treated myself to a new game for Christmas and was not disappointed.
The puzzle aspect of the game is straight out of Tomb Raider, but that’s not a bad thing. Those games kept me good for hours, so this is good use of the format. The addition of a lightsaber is excellent! Listen closely to the Storm Troopers as they psyche themselves up for combat… Then chuckle as you strike them down!
Star Wars fans will like this game and there’s plenty to like. The combat can be repetitive, but you can adjust the skill level, so there’s enough challenge, for me at least, and the story is good enough to survive the first run though. It could use a skip cut scene option though, as I’d not found one and would have liked to get on with the game. Some nice celebrity appearances littered throughout the game too.
For the 19 the game is up for now, treat yourself. It’s well worth it.
Very good story led star wars game!
I didn’t know much about this game even after it was released. Then I saw a snippet of gameplay footage and thought it looked interesting. I was really glad I bought it. The game is fantastic. It is set between movies 3 and 4 and has a really nice story led by the main character wanting to restore the Jedi Order. I think what makes it a compelling story is because ultimately as fans, we know his quest is essentially for nothing right from the very beginning. I won’t give any big spoilers away but to me I didn’t understand the ending and it didn’t go where I thought it was going which was disappointing for me but it was still a great story. The game is really user friendly and there are a lot of customisable functions for the main character.
This is more Tomb raider than Star wars.
This game is good and I have enjoyed playing it, but it doesn’t really feel like a star wars game at all. It plays like a tomb raider that happens to be loosely star wars based. There is alot of climbing, jumping and searching and a bit of action. A good solid game. Just don’t expect it to be like “The Force unleashed”.
I’d heard a lot of bad things about this game before I played it. My expectations were low, alas it was lockdown so my requirements for entertainment weren’t exactly high either! Still, I think it’s great game.
The story is really well paced and enjoyable. It’s an incredibly cinematic game which is blighted only by frame rate issues (occasionally, sporadically and only on some consoles – read about that elsewhere!). It also has a nice little turn of events towards the end which I didn’t see coming. I like star wars, but not one of those who cries about things they don’t like, but to my mind this is a proper star wars story.
The graphics are pretty good, the worlds are fun and, I must admit, I got a bit of a “mass effect” feel – the sense of adventure I had in the original.
Gameplay is not challenging really, although I was a bit worried with the “soulslike” elements at the beginning (people who like Dark Souls are not so much gamers as sadomasochists in my opinion!!) but, thankfully, this can be overcome in settings. Actually, the ability to adjust difficulty throughout is good because it allows the challenge of getting better when you want it, with the option to just crack on when you don’t want to reload a level 100 times, to kill some bugs, to unlock a marginally better move, and you know… Get back to enjoying the game.
It’s a good size game – not too brief and not an amateur opera – and all in all I highly recommend it.
Things that could be improved, frame rate issues asside, just two I think:
1. Star Wars fans want to escape tedious reality and feel the can be a Jedi, swing a lightsaber around without cutting an ear off, and generally be a part of that world. With that in mind, I’ve no idea why the main character is so utterly fixed – the beauty of a game rather than a film is that YOU can play it. It would have been great to have had a Mass Effect style ability just to make “Cal” (or even “Cas”!) your own.
2. The making your lightsaber bit felt actually kind of pointless by that stage and had nothing of the significance it had in, say, KOTOR.
Otherwise, the force is strong with this one!
Thanks to EA for bringing the world a Star Wars game that is more than just a bitty, online-only punch-up. As a fan of old titles like ‘Knight of the Old Republic’, a single-player, immersive adventure like this was just the ticket for me. That said, the game is not without its problems. If EA is planning more like this, I’d like to offer some constructive criticism.
First – combat difficulty levels. I’m an old fart and my gamer reflexes are very mid-table by some standards. That said, I’m generally far above the easy-peasy modes, which is where I spend a lot of my Fallen Order time. It’s just too difficult to time parries and use force powers – particularly against animals – without getting killed, a lot. I learned the game’s ways eventually but I’m still mostly limited to ‘Jedi Knight’ level. Even on my second run-through, I can’t nail a boss scene without taking it all the way down to kindergarten level. An unfortunate effect of all this is that a cagey, defensive combat style which avoids frequent death and tedious back-tracking also stops you generating and using the force powers which are really the key appeal of the game.
Second – interminable cut-scenes that go on and on and on and can’t be skipped. Please give the gamer the choice about whether they want to watch the cinematic links. They don’t always enrich and can simply frustrate.
Third – puzzles. As an Assassin’s Creed aficionado, I quickly learned that the third-person mayhem of Fallen Order is only superficially similar to AC Odyssey, et al. Not only is the combat trickier and less intuitive, but there is far more head-scratching and problem-solving to be tackled simply to get from A to B. I learned to enjoy this aspect – apart from one or two scenes I simply couldn’t crack without YouTube. I’d ask EA to make the cutesier problems a bit less obstuse. Examining one room for twenty minutes isn’t my idea of a good time, nor is repeatedly failing an impossible jump because I’m new to the game and don’t realise I’ll be coming back to the location later with more powers.
That’s it. This game comes pretty close to classic, but the frustration needs to be dialled down.
4.0 out of 5 stars Great game with some problems.
A game that is both excellent and frustrating. Fun to play and quite a lengthy game which will take considerable time to fully explore. However it does contain a number of annoying bugs so I would recommend regular saving. Also trying to find your way back to the Mantis spaceship can be frustrating and annoying. However none of these things significantly spoil it. Lots to do, planets to explore, monsters to kill, empire forces to defeat. The force powers you gain as you go along really help. One word of warning. After visiting Bogano for the first time you have choice to go to Zeffo or Dathomir. Do not go to Dathomir. You don’t really have necessary skills that early on in the game and you can get irretrievably stuck at one point Especially if you have just saved the game at this point. In which case you may have to start all over again. Go to Zeffo after Bogano. Also on my Xbox One X there were performance issues in 4K. Not too many and apparently there is an option to run at 1080p with only a slight reduction in graphics. Never done this but I’m told it helps.
Better than most Star Wars films
The storyline on this is fantastic. It’s up there with many good star wars films.
The gameplay borrows a lot from Tomb Raider -scavenging, climbing and levelling up. In some ways it’s better with the huge mega world moving scenes with massive monsters and ships, in some ways it’s worse as your character is very happy to just walk off ledges.
The 4K HDR is fantastic, especially on the cut scenes, the lights on the back of the robots head look superb in HDR.
I watched some YouTube videos before buying, but the game feels much better than expected.
I don’t really get that you’d power up your Force by hitting monsters, doesn’t feel right, but hey whatever.
A must buy in my eyes 👀
All time amazing game would highly recommend this to anyone the games quality is ace and the story line draws you in I bought for my partner who loved it but of course me being a star wars fan had me watching him play the whole thing loving every second and he played the game with no trouble. don’t waste time deciding if this is the game for you because trust whats not to love.
EA finally made a star wars game.
Released in a finished state, no in game slot machines, no prompts to spend more money.
Looks good, plays well, completed the game 100% and only one crash. Satisfying combat and a story that gets much better as it goes on (much better than the new trilogy)
If you have a spare 24-28 hours I would highly recommend the sh*t out of this game. Want to be a jedi?! Well hold on to your butts because that’s exactly what’s going to happen. Storm Trooper shooting at you? Force push that guy down a revine! Nasty spider trying to web you, throw your light saber at that MF! You better believe there’s a sh*t tonne of chests to find. Best be subscribed to youtube because you will be on there trying to find the solution to the mad ass puzzles these guys throw at you! Looking forward to the next one, hopefully Cal’s balls would have dropped and have a better getup than those dandy ass ponchos he’s so keen on wearing. May the force be with you!
Read the force
Gameplay is really good but there’s more you can add to it. There is not a lot to do outside the main story line. Considering it is the first good star wars game it is a bit disappointing. Side quests would be nice for an open game like it.
his game is awesome and fun on the xbox one! and also revives the star wars inverse in a interesting way also adding new character’s to the game weapons upgrades how to use the force ETC its like your actually there! i recommend this game if you enjoy star wars as a fan or if not a fan give it a good don’t rush or get mad! some levels are hard (had to sometimes watch youtube with some of the levels driving me crazy) anyway it was tones of fun gonna finish it when i get the chance!
Blurred lines.
Not perfect but some beautifully created cinematic sequences. It’s a game that is blurring the lines between movies and game play.
Controls are easy to get used to, even for younger players and the storyline is long enough. Unlikely that there is much replay-ability.
Incredible game
This game is quite possibly the best game I’ve ever played! I would still recommend it to people new to Star Wars but the game is more enjoyable when you understand Star Wars as a whole. The storyline and free play are so much fun and the game is just beautiful to walk through. You grow to love and understand every character just like an actual Star Wars movie. I would definitely encourage EA to make more Star Wars games like this!
Never Felt More Like A Jedi
Game is absolutely fantastic. I would only have one criticism. As I’m generally used to rpgs I did finish this game in a weekend. Granted I did play it about 18 hours a day. Lightsaber Combat is fantastic. Graphics are great.
This game is awesome! It has everything : beautiful graphics, action and puzzle solving situations! You get to fight with light saber and preform some cool moves! You also get to learn new moves as you play along and use the force! You also get to learn new force moves as you go. I think the company did a greatjob with this game, love it!
The Best Puzzle Solving Star Wars Game To Date
If you enter this game expecting a revamped force unleashed, prepare to be surprised. This game takes the core combat elements of that game such as developing force abilities and new lightsaber skills and merge this with the puzzle filled story. There are occasional boss fights that are difficult to the average gamer on higher difficulties.
All in all I would absolutely recommend this game.
The Best Star Wars Game since Republic Commando.
The combat is great and the story is even better.
I loved the darker parts of the story that show you how ‘they lived’ and how ‘they died’.
The best Star Wars game I’ve played since Republic Commando.
The game does take a serious investment of time if you have it on a higher difficulty.
It's OK
Bought two, it is what it is but NO ONLINE PLAY which I didn’t know.
Played most this on Jedi grand master level ( hardest ) just couldn’t get past the ninth sister on it and had to drop levels lol.
Excellent game
Bought as a gift for my partner he was really happy receiving it, I’ve watched him play and it has great game play, very well designed and as you become a Jedi warrior u gain more skills, it’s similar play as Tomb Raider finding clues and interacting with other characters, it has a huge game map and is also great to watch being played with all the Star Wars sound effects and great graphics I would 100% recommend this, if u love Star Wars this is a must have game!
5.0 out of 5 stars Finally - a decent Jedi game.
It’s been a while since Jedi Knight, Jedi Academy – the Kyle Katarn saga – and while the Force Unleashed series was welcome, it didn’t have the tactical saber combat I was looking for.
The Fallen Order takes it to a whole new tactical level of combat. You can’t hack and slash your way through enemies, healing as you go. Nor can you just hold down block and wait for an opening, then rinse and repeat. You need to dodge, roll, jump, parry, use Force powers and then you get to do maybe one or two slashes before going back on defence again. Enemies are rock hard, even on medium difficulty, and they have a variety of moves to confuse you – some un-blockable and highly damaging. Many times in the first 5 hours or so I was getting killed by a single creature, or two of them – but persevere and it’ll get better.
Saving is done in specific points in the map on a planet, and when you rest to recover health, all enemies re-spawn except bosses. This makes it annoying to backtrack through a planet – and you will be a lot when you unlock more Force powers to get you into other parts of the map. There are lots of collectables for those looking to reach 100% (like me) but they’re not hugely rewarding – some of them increase health and amount of Force you can use – but most are costumes or colours for your ship or droid.
The game length is good – I’d say about 20 to 25 hours if you really explore, and waste time back-tracking like I do. If you blat through the story and not bother exploring then maybe 15. It feels like it has some replay value, but only to experience the combat again rather than finding new things you didn’t discover on the first run through.
I haven’t followed the plot closely – I have a general idea of what I’m doing and why, but I’m not bothered by it. Just the fact it’s based in the Star Wars universe in between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope is enough story in it’s own right. This is an action game above all else – and it does that bit very, very well.
Does the job
I have no idea if this game is any good, but I’ve not heard a peep from my typically moody 14 year old since Christmas, so it has skills of some sort.
You won't regret buying this game!
very good game was not expecting it to be good took me 1 hour to really start enjoying the game and then couldn’t put the game down until finally finishing it. would hope they do additional content as would love to play more of this great game! Loved the story and gameplay 9/10
Brillant star wars game
his game is a wonderful outing in the star wars universe, it reminds me alot like tomb raider and uncharted, excellent story with a great cast. must buy for any star wars fan.
Sick game
It is a amazing game but to short and no new game plus but it is still worth the money and it’s the Star Wars games we have been waiting for years and the story good but different it’s a good challenge with the battles
Finally! An excellent single player StarWars game, it’s been a while since we had one of those! An excellent story, set after the events of episode 3, you play the part of a young Jedi who is on the run after Order 66 and the Jedi Purge. Gameplay combines the best of Assassin’s Creed style movement with DarkSouls type combat. You can backtrack through explored areas as you gain new abilities, revealing new areas and collectables as well as experience a genuinely good story set in the StarWars universe. One that diehard fans MUST experience, but that will be enjoyed by newcomers too, I’d recommend it to everyone, even those disillusioned by recent developments with the StarWars franchise. Don’t miss it!
Great game by respaw
This game is awwwweeesooommmeee
Better that any other star wars game that has come out under EA recently. This game proves to them that single player games are good and sell well.
If your a Star wars fan this game is an absolute must, not only is it probably one of the best Star Wars games ever made but its close to being one of the top games I’ve ever played on Xbox, a fantastic story that captures the magic of the movies in every way, the campaign is very long and will take you much longer than your usual game of this type, (but that also depends on how many hours a day you play for) the story is very well played out with your character building upon their skills as you progress through the game, by the time your finished you will be a fully skilled Jedi, there are several planets you will explore as the story unfolds, every planet is lush to look at with beautiful scenery and art, the graphics are very detailed, all the creatures and droids look amazing as do the characters, you will find yourself pit against stormtroopers and biker scout troopers and new purge troopers sent by the inquisitors who are ordered by Darth Vader himself to find and kill the Jedi’s. You will also be able to customise your look and lightsabre as you progress too, the action in the game is great, lots of combo force moves you can perform as the story goes on too, if you like collectables in games there are plenty in this, tons of things to find hidden over the planets you visit, some are small areas some are huge and you will repeat locations too so its best to remember them, the action in the game is much like tomb raider in a way with some climbing and well timed jumps etc and some puzzle work in places, maybe a little frustrating at times but overall its an amazing experience and by the end you will be blown away, especially the amazing cameo at the end of the game too. A must for fans of Star wars or just an awesome 3rd person hack-em up puzzler action game too.
The game can be played on easy to difficult settings
plenty of collectables to find throughout for the extra generous achievement of 100g
most achievements are collected through playing the story but you will certainly want a second play through to mop up the others, you do have the opportunity to continue exploring after the story ends if you missed anything.
Great game! Probably the best Star Wars game out there, plus BD-1 is super adorable. Only 4 stars cause the game kept freezing at the beginning so I had to reinstall the game.
One of the best Star Wars games
Thanks to Respawn Entertainment for bringing a decent Star Wars game in a decade, and also proving that single-player games are still viable, to EA and to the whole gaming industry. But this might not be for everyone. Think of it as a mix of Soul games and Unchartered. The game can be challenging but you can switch the game difficulty at any point. Some potential of replicability with different paths and tree skills. Downside a lot of backtracking, and some fps drops but nothing major.
Great feel to the comba
Love this game, not been able to put it down all weekend. Great feel to the combat using lightsaber and force powers, button bashing won’t work, (at least on Jedi Master difficulty). One of the best Star Wars games I’ve played since the days of KOTOR. I was worried that this game would disappoint but happily not!
After years of disappointing & mediocre games (movies too) EA have finally nailed it.
Plays like a mix of Uncharted & Sekiro with great graphics, acting, music & gameplay.
No infamous micro transaction & no in-game loading screens. The way the game takes you from planet to planet is a joy to behold. I wasn’t even put off by the hero being played by & modelled on Cameron Monaghan (Jerome from Gotham). Highly recommended.
Was so looking forward to this game. At first a couple of hours in I was not sold, however after you pick up for second “Force” action the game really clicks. It’s not a Battlefront an all out action type game, its more Titanfall (same developer) meets Tomb Raider set in a Star Wars Universe. Listen to my review on the Gamers of the Lost Spark Podcast.
Got this game today and have got to all the different planets etc. This is game is amazing! My favourite mechanic is ability to customise your lightsaber! I highly recommend this game for Xmas or whateve
This is the best Star Wars game I’ve played since the force unleashed from back in the day, I know there is concerns about EA putting microtransactions within the game but fear not there isn’t any thank goodness just solid single player gameplay..
So if you’re a star wars fan then this is definitely a must buy.
Update at the end of this: EA have pulled some ground back with this game. Its really good. I love the souls franchise and all of its clones. But this is the best star wars game i have played in years. Good story great gameplay and alot of fun. I been playing since release and i cant turn it off. I am playing on jedi difficulty and it is abit of a challange but easy to get through so far i am about 15 hours in and i am trying to do everything.
If you like star wars this game is worth it trust me! If you like souls and hate star wars this is still worth a try.
What you would expect from a souls clone, you gain xp ans loose it if you die, however this game unlike dark souls is forgiving. If you fall of an edge you pop back on the map with a chunk of hp gone. To get your xp back you have to strike the enemy who killed you once and you get full force and full hp.
So far i have unlocked 4 planets and the missions on them have been long going back and fourth. The fighting is good i would say the speed is inbetween souls and sekiro.
Update: small spoiler non involving the story…. i have 100% all planets. 6 in total 5 you can properly explore which is a shame i hoped for more. There is no end game sadly so now its like once i have done everything this game will collect dust.
Still it is worth a play but with no end game i would proberly wait until the price drops. I have dropped my rating from 5 to 4 just due to the end game.
Also i wouldnt expect much from the upgrade system, it is rather small… i guess i was expecting the same as dark souls level up bahhh go as far as you want lol
The force powers are of few but they get the trick done during combat, cause you are a jedi you get less in that perspective. I think if they did multiple endings and a light and dark choice this game could of been so much more but i guess they want it to tie in with the movies.
To sum up if you like star wars buy this game it is a great addition to the story, if you like a challenge wack this game on jedi master and have a blast, although it is still pretty easy.
I wiuld prob replay this in a few months just because it is decent just lacking on certain aspects.
