Not finished with all episodes yet, but I feel like I can already give a review.
tl;dr: Good experience for people who played the oldschool games, but also for younger gamers who discover a Lego: Star Wars game for the first time. But it has some flaws that personally annoy me.
Damn, the nostalgia kicks in. If you played the original Lego: Star Wars games in your childhood, this game feels like a dream coming true. Modern combat, very good graphics and overall a really polished experience.
BUT, for personally, the "open world" approach doesn't work out. Although it's nice to explore an area for a bit, I never felt the motivation to actually grind again through the levels. I would have liked it more in the classic way, with more elaborated levels.
Also, the cutscenes and story in general are very short, you will experience big jumps between the scenes. That might also be because of the open world approach, but sometimes it feels a little too fast for me.
And what also bothers me is the german voiceover. Some voices are decent and sound really good, and others feel like low-budget randoms who decided to speak a few words because they were asked to.
