Star Wars Jedi: Survivor

Unfortunately, on most platforms, the game had a really shaky launch. Sub-30 fps consistently, buggy cutscenes, just poor performance altogether. Note that I'm playing on an Xbox Series X.

Now that that's out of the way, THE STORY. I am 12 hours in and I have been swallowed by this story. Don't worry I won't spoil.

And the graphics are superb, and the worlds detailed and expansive. It is every bit as great as the first game, but is better in every aspect. It is a perfect sequel, which is quite rare in the gaming world.

It adds shopping, fishing, and farming. It has companions that fight alongside you. It has new lightsaber fighting styles and everything down to BD-1's parts are customizable. Truly the greatest game in the Galaxy.

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!!!!

Jedi Survivor improved pretty much every aspect from the previous game, harder and more interesting boss fights, more variety in terms of clothes and customization, the story was Better and lengthier, we were introduced to new characters, more planets to explore and we were able to do more things like gardening and recruiting more characters for the saloon, which by the way is a wonderful place to visit each time I go to Koboh, we also got more stances to use, which is definitely one of my favorite things in this game, all of them felt really unique and fun in their own way, but the game itself is pretty laggy no matter what platform you play on, sudden frame drops, weird glitches etc. But I don't have that big of a problem with that since it doesn't happen to me very often, and the final problem I have with Jedi Survivor is Tanalorr, the whole story was basically building up anticipation for Tanalorr, but when we got to finally visit it, there was nothing to do, a few scans and echos here and there and that's it, I whish there was more to explore, and I also would have liked another outpost on Tanalorr, because they literally called it their new home. Overall the game was incredible, I loved it, it's a 9.4 for me.

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.

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.
