In other words, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is a game that’s an absolute joy to play. Exploring these worlds, slicing through enemies, customizing how Cal looks, uncovering the game’s lore: it’s all done perfectly here, in a way that should appeal to anyone, regardless of their familiarity with Star Wars itself (though being a fan probably helps). There are minor flaws, to be sure, but they’re so minor, they feel like nitpicking. In a year that’s already featured some outstanding games, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor still manages to stand out.
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is a game that, despite a few launch bugs and inconsistent jumps, genuinely delivers an engaging experience for fans. The level design and personalization options for both combat and character appearances are definite highlights. It’s an adventure that lets you explore new corners of the Star Wars universe while building on the foundations laid by Fallen Order and tells another excellent tale of a galaxy far, far away.
Despite some bugs and a little jankyness in terms of movement it's the most fun I've had with Star Wars ever. The story is awesome, the characters are well developed and likeable, the graphics and world building with all the little secrets is absolutely stunning. I f**king love it!
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor does what any successful sequel should do: it expands on the foundations of the first game and does everything better. Combat is just as enjoyable and offers more options, exploration is on a whole other level, and the Metroidvania elements make for engaging puzzles and satisfying rewards. Easily one of the best Star Wars games ever made, it hands 2023 yet another crowning highlight.
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is a textbook example of what a sequel should be. Bigger, better and flashier than its predecessor. The action will titillate any gaming Star Wars-fan and so will the excellent (Star Wars) story. Yet the enthralling Jedi fantasy this game offers is sometimes bogged down by lackluster performance.
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order built a solid foundation on which to build a sequel, and Respawn Entertainment has happily obliged. Star Wars Jedi: Survivor takes what worked in that first game and expands it significantly. It’s bigger, grander and more ambitious, with a few trade-offs.
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor does so much right in continuing Cal Kestis' story, delivering the best lightsaber combat in a game to date along with some huge environments to explore. Sadly it's also launching with a bevy of technical issues and frame-rate problems that will provide the worst experience for early adopters. Players deserve better.
Better installment than Fallen Order in every **** the time I got to play it, it was patched up, and I experienced much fewer bugs than those who played on day 1. Open world suits the game, but I preferred the more linear metroidvania style. That's me. And I'm not a fan of soulslike games or combats. That's me again.
While the game looks good and fun to play, there are several flaws to address that can't be omitted.
It's very fast paced, encouraging the player to move forward and advance rapidly; However, at many times you can get lost due to poor design and the holomap doesn't help that much.
Gameplay is very linear and repetitive, it's always the same premise : You land in a planet, given a task to complete: go to point A, where you'll have parkour, then fights, then parkour, then fight, then parkour and finally, usually an end level Boss fight.
Puzzles are pointless and boring, almost feel like a waste of space and time.
Graphics look nice, however one'd have expected a little better since now the crossgen period is over, being released only for next gen consoles.
I have many bad things to say, the majority have already seen them, the story is good but my God, 70 dollars a broken game.
edit : It becomes very difficult to enjoy but at the same time the story is great... but everything is very poorly done, the indicators, the game crashes and forces you to go back to where you saved in a crap place etc.
I was going to give it a 5. But this game is sadly almost unplayable with this **** map and still buggy.
