Absolutely dug this game. Gameplay was so damn fun. All the next game needs to do from here is add the ability to grab and throw objects at enemies using the force. Also I understand why the lightsaber is so nerfed compared to the movies, I know it isn't lore accurate but the gameplay wouldn't make sense without the nerf, walking like a force to be reckoned with and one hit killing your enemies with a lightsaber is without a doubt the most badass thing ever but then it would soon grow stale wrt gameplay unless they try incorporating something like Ghostrunner's one hit kill mechanic and make it a secondary game mode like mercenaries mode from all them Resident Evil remakes. Also what is this obsession of Respawn with creating absolutely wholesome and unhateable robot companions, first BT from Titanfall 2 and now BD in this game, just hope BD doesn't meet the same fate. Story wise it's alright but there were so many awe inducing sequences especially during the ending; cinematic af. The graphics and art style is good but something about the vegetation seems a bit off especially kashykk, had the same issue with respawn's previous game titanfall 2, but it's not that big of an issue. All the different planets are so damn diverse with its visuals, enemies and flora & fauna. Barely made it out of the final boss encounter, I know for a fact that my ass would've been cooked without the lb+x move. Also some of the puzzles were absolutely horrendous especially those on zeffo tombs and I really wished there was some sort of fast travel, the exploration could've felt so much less tedious if there was less backtracking and a fast travel feature. The combat and exploration were so addictive, I truly cannot wait to play Jedi Survivor before my controller gives into the dark side. I know the next game's performance is god awful on PC but I hope my pc can somehow run it at 60 fps. I don't think the ubisoft Star Wars game is gonna be this good.
