Sad I can't play this until tomorrow. It's been so damn long with the Star Wars video game scene just being completely worthless that'd I'd even take a so-so game at this point, so the fact that this is shaping up to actually be really solid by most accounts has me super excited.

Feels dirty purchasing an EA product, but I'm just so excited to finally be playing a Star Wars game again. It's been so many, many years...

Got my orange lightsaber too heck yeah

Man this game just has so little hype it seems...

Interesting that the PC version is 6 points higher than the console version on metacritic. 90 and 84 respectively.

Honestly, I can see the reason for the little hype. It doesn't do anything new, everything that's good about it has already been done by other games and talked about enough that there isn't much else to say about it.

But it's Star Wars! And it's a new single player story focused Star Wars, so you'd think it'd be a big deal. But I guess EA has done too much damage to the brand. :/

Feels like this might have great word of mouth though between the solid reviews and the Star Wars/EA crowds forgetting what good video games are like

What genre is this? Is it an uncharted type scripted adventure?

You did indeed stab me in the back. However, you are only level one, whilst I am level 50. That means I should remain uninjured.

That's super interesting! The little clip I saw involved climbing at at-at so made some assumptions

This game definitely reminds me of Darksiders - not by actual resemblance but in how it's very clearly borrowing heavily from other games and yet becomes way more than just a sum of its parts.

If Darksiders was Zelda + God of War + Devil May Cry, this game feels like Sekiro + Uncharted + Metroid. So far it seems to be working brilliantly!

Giant Bomb review was interesting. Brad seemed super high on the game in the quick look, then in the review 3/5 because of how buggy it is

Probably on some level, ea doesn't want it to succeed.

Do games that come out right before Black Friday still get Black Friday sales? I want to get this game, but don't mind waiting a week or two even if I only get like 10 bucks off.

if you have a PC you can play it for $15 through EA's subscription service. I think I've seen the console version listed for $35 but I haven't paid too much attention

If I had to guess... they figured Star Wars + Dark Souls would sell itself.

The game seems like an honest effort at making a fun Star Wars game that gamers should like. No microtransactions, no season pass, none of the business stuff that really pisses people off.

It's also challenging. The set pieces (so far, for me - I haven't made it super far tho) are pretty cool. There's exploration. Maybe a little artificial time-to-complete due to backtracking. A skill tree. A worthwhile use of the license.

It's not a perfect game, but it's an EA/Disney/Star Wars game that isn't disgustingly any of that.

I rage quit Assassin's Creed Origins for the last time (for a while), and I started this. Getting my ass kicked because I need to git gud is much more fun than dying because the game decided to spawn a half dozen enemies on horseback while I'm trying to fight someone.
