Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Previews Tell of a Promising Sci-Fi Action Adventure

The hodgepodge of different genres sounds a little like what Insomniac did with Spider-Man and that worked out well — Taking elements from successful games to create your own formula. I’m looking forward to this.

the previews of Battlefront 2 were also good and told of a promising game and look what happened there

Super excited but yeah... still trying to keep expectations in check after some of the more recent SW games.

@FullbringIchigo
I loved those games 1 and 2 haha

@JJ2 BF2 is a great game now but back when it launched it was a huge mess and it's lootbox practises are still causing waves even today

Still can’t definitely saying I’m getting it but cautiously optimistic. I will read some of the reviews diligently.

I'm still not feeling it, and that bums me out. I want this game to be fantastic because I love Titanfall 2. But I just haven't seen anything that's blown me away so far. Then again, I said the same thing about Titanfall 2, and that wowed me.

@FullbringIchigo
I'm just thinking of going back to it soon 👍
Yea I know the story. I still played day 1 and for quite a few months without any mts in the game.

Edit
Unpopular opinion I KNOW haha

I'm cautiously optimistic. Of course, there'll be the typical EA nonsense but I hope the final result will be solid, if nothing else.

Does sound very promising. Was planning on getting it regardless but great to hear it appears to be solid!

It shows how much damage EA has done to the Star Wars brand when "game promising all these features actually has all these features" is a news story.

Genuinely can't wait to play this. It's gonna be so wizard.

BF 2 the story mode was amazing. So many people just clearly wanted multiplayer and got so caught up on loot boxes they never played the story which with the DLC expansion was great. This sounds like the focus on JUST solo play means things like customisation will take it to the next level.

Can’t wait

@Stocksy The story was okay. I enjoyed it, but there wasn't a lot of depth to Iden and it needed more story. I did like the best part on Jakku--flying about and landing to do ground missions. That felt more immersive. I like Iden and her storyline and I hope they continue on where it left off.

@JJ2 I still play SWBF 2. Some of the new additions have been really fun. And the new co-op mode lets you level up gear/cards as well. It's a good place to work on some hero stuff or to upgrade those special vehicles and troopers. DICE still sucks are balancing, but they eventually get it. If SWBF 3 is a combination of 1 & 2, I'll be really happy. SWBF 1 was so much faster than 2. I'd like to see some of that brought back in.

@starhops
Yea tbh when I first played I found swbf1 a lot more difficult to upgrade, unlock card etc (was surprised you could get your favourite cards in 2 from the get go so to speak) so I though a lot of bs was going on in the press. Granted loot boxes were a very bad idea and annoying Haha.
Still got great fun with friends with the two games.

A star wars version of uncharted sounds good to me. But I hate 'metroid' style backtracking in games. I don't mind if it's occasional to finish up import long story elements. But these days, more often than not, it is just away to lengthen the game and the reward is just a room with another point crystal or other minor things like cosmetics.

@LN78 If it helps, I'll be taking the risk at launch regardless and will therefore leave some spoiler-free, bias-free thoughts around the place. In the meantime, I hope you find Death Stranding as wiz... er, as bombad as it looks.

@LN78 Oh, so you did... apologies, didn't realise. I just saw the email notification earlier and remembered to come here when I logged on. Want me to just erase all this?

You came across fine, by the way!

@LN78 Ookie-day.

Sorry, I'm doing it deliberately now...

@LN78

@Gumbopudding “…other minor things like cosmetics” Blasphemy! All cosmetics rule!
