Star Wars Jedi: Survivor

The game is great so far. I've played about 3 hours so far and to this point it feels like what a sequel should be. Bigger, better, and I can definitely appreciate the continuity with Cal and his abilities. (Things like double jump, pull, push, etc available right away). Always been a weird nit pick of mine that sequels make you relearn things you learned in the previous game. Although, I can't ignore the frame rate struggles. I've never been one to complain about graphics or a games performance, but playing on PS5 for 3 years now I've been spoiled with little to no frame issues. For a game to finally come out with noticeable struggles is a bit jarring, and a bit upsetting. Nothing too gamebreaking, but it is definitely noticeable in some bigger fights, and for me anyway, cutscenes have STRUGGLED so far. I'm sure this will get fixed in a future patch, so I won't let it affect my score. Can't wait to really sink my teeth into this over the weekend and get it rolling.

This game is the absolute definition of what a Star Wars game should be like. I'm not usually someone who gives reviews on games but AJ felt this one deserved one. There is soooo much to like about this game it's difficult to figure out where to start. The visuals and the graphics of the game were amazing and do not even get me started on the story. It was funny, it was sad, it was entertaining and so much more. The combat performed flawlessly and was a very nice challenge. This is exactly what a sequel should look like because they took everything from the first game, which was already amazing in itself and then improved it and made it 100 times better than it already was and did a phenomenal job doing so. Honestly, don't listen to any of the bad reviews that you see here because they clearly don't know what they are talking about. Being a huge Star Wars fan myself since I was young, I can honestly tell you that this game, the story, the characters, all of it is a true heart throb and worth every single penny. If Respawn can keep releasing masterpieces like this, they might very well be one of the best game developers I've ever seen!!!!

I've been playing for about 20 hours now and I'd guess I'm about half way through. I'll stop and find EVERYTHING before i push on any further into the story but so far - this is an awesome game.

I'm playing on the PS5, amazing graphics and performance - it looks great. Very fun gameplay. Challenging fights with a lot of variety in strategy, there's 5 different lightsabre styles and a nice array of force powers to use. The story is interesting, the acting and cutscenes are very high quality too. The planets all feel very large and Metroidvania fans will certainly enjoy themselves, there's a vast array of goodies to find hidden all over the maps.

Its not perfect, the map is almost painful to try to read and the way the side-quests or 'rumours' are handled could be better, there's one or two game play bugs like you try to avoid a heavy attack, but you cant dodge back because there's a wall there that the camera angle didn't let you see and boom your dead but overall these are minor concerns in the bigger picture.

The writers if the story should win something. It has a lot of emotion and you are rooting for the good side characters. As an expert in Star Wars, I can say the developers of the game know Star Wars better than the makers of the new films. Even the short film sequences are better than any fight scenes that we saw in the sequels.

Spoiler esque: Some negative points: too many collectibles. What I miss is also a visit to the jedi temple on Coruscant, a jedi cloak. Jedi Starfighter flying would have been epic. What I think is unnecessary are the puzzles to gain sonething which takes place in a dream world.

Moreover, I need to say the game is the best Star Wars Game I ever played even above The Force Unleashed and KOTOR (sry Kotor fans).

Amazing game play mechanics, and a wonderful storyline with some unexpected twists. There is a lot to do, event after you reach the end of the main storyline. The characters are well developed, as are their relationships. Many of the characters are new, but there is at least one legendary character that everyone will recognize. Even the principal antagonists have a lot of depth; they are far more complex that your typical "bad guys." The graphics are very nice, and the PC game is not very demanding in regard to hardware. Overall, it's one of the best games I've played in recent years. I would highly recommend it to any Star Wars fan.
