From IGN's review....

I Like Big Hutts and I Cannot Lie​

 

[Topher]

Reviews are good enough for a month long sub to Ubisoft+ so I'm in.

 

[YuLY]

Lower please, Ubisoft needs a factory reset.

 

[Tomi]

Not good for Ubi
Stocks going down for sure :/

 

[finalflame]

Yah this is starting to feel (has always felt?) like a bargain bin pickup. I guess that spares the wallet.

 

[EMR]

This is a game with the potential to be enjoyable and entertaining, but it is terribly limited by a super "Disneyfied" creative direction, high goals with a lack of polishing, awful writing and identity policies...

 

[Sethbacca]

I'm looking forward to playing, didn't preorder the fancy version to play 3 days early so I'm waiting with the scrubs till the 30th I suppose.

 

[Denton]

More videogame junkfood from Ubisoft, as expect. But for 20 eurobucks, I will try it out. It can't be more boring than Avatar, can it?

 

[saintjules]

ACG says wait for a sale or get it on the Ubisoft subscription upfront.

"This is a game with the potential to be enjoyable and entertaining, but it is terribly limited by a super "Disneyfied" creative direction, high goals with a lack of polishing, awful writing and identity policies..."

So it's a playable streaming show?

 

[ByWatterson]

Literally exactly the most predictable review scores of all time.

Competent and unnecessary.

 

[Draugoth]

All big releases this year were from freaking asian developers.

Incredible how western studios have been pumping mediocre games.

 

[jm89]

Maybe reviews aren't the best judge of how the story is.

But reading anything about that story is putting me to sleep.

 

[touchfuzzy]

Predictably competent / mediocre. Easy skip.

 

[Valedix]

I like Star Wars games so I'll happily wait a year and buy it for 20 bucks.

 

[tommib]

Identity policies? Never heard that one before.

 

[damidu]

"wait for patches and deals" the game

 

[R3TRODYCE]

Weak…What a shit year for gaming.

 

[Topher]

What review is that from?

 

[Sanepar]

Meh game with beautiful visuals = Ubisoft standard.

 

[Luipadre]

Tech issues again especially on console... Im sick of this. Waiting for patches and a sale then.

 

[AtomicStarving]

Yaaay

 

[Ogbert]

All they needed to do was remake The Division and set it on Hoth.

 

[FewRope]

What review is that from?

The review is probably 80% IA generated as a native spanish speaker, it's pretty obvious

 

[Ozzie666]

Not sure why people are bitching? Scores seem pretty okay? Did anyone really expect and 8,9 or 10 games? It should do reasonably well with Star Wars name.

 

[EMR]

What review is that from?

Star Wars: Outlaws Review

2024 ha sido un año relativamente leve en términos de lanzamientos prominentes de video juegos. Exceptuando lanzamientos como Helldivers 2 y Black Myth Wukong, casi todo lo que se ha presentado ha tenido cierto nivel de trivialidad y poca a ninguna anticipación. Las noticias de hace unos años de...

I would not be surprised that investors are pressuring western devs to get games done quickly so they can get their money back.

Thats what happens when devs focus on DEI, quality of ppl in dev team hits rock botton and their products become much worse too, which is obvious when top priority isnt quality of the game anymore but pushing agenda

Yes some people here expected a game they would be proud to preorder for day one and if you suspected it would be a mid game worth getting for 15 bucks after updates you're a shit Star Wars fan that wants the IP to fail

 

[splattered]

About what I figured it would average... seems worth playing especially on discount

 

[kazuyamishima]

EB Games has it for 2 eligible games traded in (minimum $10 value each) + $39, I might bit.

 

[adamsapple]

My gamefly is ready.

This is a great reason for a crash to eventually happen. Nature.

Wouldn't count it as big, but Ubisoft put out Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown this year and that game is fantastic.

 

[Topher]

And.....preloaded

Guess I'll find out if it is worth $18

 

[BaneIsPain]

sounds about right. see you in deep sale

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

You’re not wrong, my friend. Japanese games have had the edge so far this year. There are some good Western-made games as well, though they tend to be more indie and AA rather than AAA.

 

[Fake]

'Red Dead Redemption in space'. My ass.

 

[balls of snow]

Good review. Interested in the open world stuff. Looks like they stripped a lot of the checklist system and you just go out and explore Elden Ring style.

 

[Reaseru]

The reviews feels like a uppercut in that manly jaw.

 

[Kathanan]

Looking forward to be playing it tomorrow.

 

[FatallyYours]

It'll be 20% off within a few weeks, Black Friday will see it have a 33% price cut, and if you can wait until May next year it'll probably be half price

 

[Karak]

I honestly enjoyed it, at times, way more than I expected. But mission hard fails and a story that just was WOW not enticing held it down, as well as some crashes and a friggen savegame bug. BUT I do feel this one will hit a bit better than I expected across actual gamers.

Is it true you can't reset the stealth once broken and it's an auto fail?

Coming Soon: 8/10

Star Wars Outlaws Review: The Force Is Strong With This One

Star Wars Outlaws review for PC, PS5, Xbox. Is the new open-world Star Wars game from Ubisoft and Massive worth playing?

www.comingsoon.net

 

[sigmaZ]

Jedi Fallen Order and Survivor are excellent.

Yeah. After reflecting on things, I've noticed that all the Star Wars that I found the coolest and appealing all had a darker more somber tone.
The Empire Strikes Back
Rouge One
Andor
The Jedi games.

So far, this gives a more "What should I have for dinner?" kind of vibe. I dunno til I see more.

 

[phant0m]

IGN gave it 70 with the degree Disney is trying to ensure the reception of this game? Jesus.

Not woke enough to earn big points there.

Or Ubi’s check was a little lean

 

[diffusionx]

This is a major missed opportunity.

 

[Dr. Wilkinson]

As expected, it sounds safe, somewhat short for an open world, and the usual all-around Disney-style safeness that has made Star Wars into something that's still fine, but maybe just a bit boring.
