Will this satisfy us Andor and Last Jedi fans Or will it be more “fake Star Wars?”

[AndrewM]

I loved Andor, but hated, hated the last jedi, so be careful with who you assume agrees with you.

[myfathersbastard]

I’m with you, Last Jedi was terrible. Andor was genuinely great though.

[Pocahontas]

Best of the new. People are stupid and love bandwagons.

[chrisx]

Andor was great, the last Jedi was trash and is definitely in the category of fake star wars.

[cheetah]

“Trash” you mean.

I really dig Fallen Order... cant wait to play this one.

[masterfox]

I hope there is a galactic improvement in the main character way it runs, been playing alot of fallen order lately and each time the character sprints Im like why the hell it runs like that?lol, maybe a jedi technique who knows nonetheless great game so far.

[MeatyUrologist]

Lol, why the hell it runs like that! Classic. Gotta agree though, it's like "it" got something stuck up its rear!

Hopefully checkpoints and load times are fixed
Walking through 2 corridors and a 40 elevator ride to try again is just unbearable

[MeatyUrologist]

Being that it is next gen only, I don't see any reason this wouldnt be fixed. If there are still long hidden load times, they clearly don't know how to develop games.

I love that there's a lot more customization this time around. It was one of my biggest gripes in Fallen Order. You can make Cal Kestis look like a scruffy looking nerf herder or make BD-1 look brand new or in need of repair. The light saber is also given more TLC with the options you are given. I've been looking at the previews of the game on youtube and its blowing me away. I'm even more excited for the game because of them.

Who's scruffy looking?

I was not a big fan of Fallen Order. The game felt buggy and the map design was at times confusing. I played through the game in 2020 on series X. Despite patches I still experienced lip sync issues, awkward clambering and climbing and some frame rate drops. My friend who just played through on Fallen Order on PS5, said he experienced the same issues I did. However, I found the gameplay and story of Fallen Order to be generally good.

I’ve played on PS4 Pro and PS5. I didn’t experience any of that. I had the odd visual glitch but they were rare.
The map is designed to be a little confusing. It’s a metroidvania inspired design.
