Star Wars: Fallen Order

Good
  • Finally a good Star Wars game, how long has it been? 
  • The tutorial level is awesome and filled with some huge set pieces.   It nails the Star Wars feeling. 
  • The graphics look great in HDR especially the lightsabers, and I love using the lightsabers as a source of light in dark caves.
  • Of course the music is awesome and the sound effects put a huge smile on my face.  
  • The combat at the hardest difficulty level feels like Dark souls lite, but it's not as punishing which I'm happy with.  I love the Dark Souls games and wanted an adventure game to take some of its ideas and they did it perfectly. 
  • The lightsaber skills are fun to use and the kill animations are awesome.
  • Exploring the world is fun with tons of secrets and shortcuts to find.
  • Voice acting and story is decent and I'm curious to find out more.
  • If you fall off a cliff you come back right where you fell off with a little bit less health.  
  • If you have a good PC just get the Origin Premier sub for $15/month so you can play this game pretty cheap. The length is around 12-20 hours so easily beatable in a month. 
Bad
  • Remember to let go of the block button before trying to attack otherwise nothing happens. 
  • Read reports of long loading times but mine have been quick on PC.
  • Miss R2D2 and C3PO.  
Verdict


  • Can't wait to play this weekend. 
  • Recommend if you like Star Wars or adventure games.
