Eisenfaustus 261 Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 7 hours ago, Feathered_IV said: Assassins Creed: Jedi? That's what I fear - Ubisoft's open world formula has grown old for me... A few years earlier I had jumped at ac:valhalla - but now... However - it'll be a well crafted star wars game and I'll propably nag a little more until it comes out and then play and enjoy it nevertheless Link to post Share on other sites
kestrel79 262 Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 It's from the dev team that made Far Cry 3, and both The Division games...so my guess is something similar to those but set in Starwars. My guess is an open world Bounty Hunter type game. Link to post Share on other sites

Don't confuse publishers with developers. I haven't seen it discussed here, but I’m looking forward to giving Fallen Order a go after my new system is built. Link to post Share on other sites

I never bothered to get it but then it came onto EA Play so gave it a whirl and ended up completing it. The main character is bland but some of the side characters are interesting enough. Doesn't do anything particularly original or memorable but once you get a few hours into it and expand your powers a bit it's a nice enough mix of combat that isn't frustrating & exploration/puzzle solving that won't melt your brain trying to figure it out. I also spent a disturbing amount of time customising my lightsaber and poking around places to find shiny new bits to dress it up. Link to post Share on other sites

Trooper117 2582 Posted January 19 Author Share Posted January 19 For me, my dream SW game is to be a soldier of the Empire, being sent to various systems to quell the rebellion. Working my way from the basic classic Stormtrooper to Squad Leader, then a special forces role. Thing is... it will never happen as it's always flippin jedi based and how the poor rebels always win over the nasty Empire... (sigh) 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Gambit21 5416 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 As a special forces operator, would you get to upgrade your armor to a cotton t-shirt, thereby making your kit more resistant to blaster fire? Link to post Share on other sites

I expect I'll like it when I finally get around to getting it, but with all EA Starwars games, I expect it will be slightly disappointing in what it could of been, which is certainly the case for me in battlefront 2, and jedi order, both of which I like, but could of been so much better (I've always loved Starwars!). Personally I would of preferred something like squadrons gfx but with a much more story line based game like the masterpiece that was LucasArts x wing alliance. Now, that was a great game.

Feathered_IV 6994 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 I always rather preferred to play as Rebel Scum. You don’t have to conform to dress code and you get to be friends with people from all over the place. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

(sigh) While that‘d be an instant buy for me - the empire has become a lot more evil in the new Disney canon... Harder to sell fighting for those guys now. However started TIE fighter special edition again - that’s just an awesome game. And still surprisingly playable... maybe I should give modded x-wing alliance another try Link to post Share on other sites

You mean the "woke agenda" et al? Check this out: https://www.wargamer.com/articles/wargames-2020-diversity-inclusion/ I guess they are right, there is an unproportional number lf women represented in games dealing with Napoleon's invasion of Russia. It should be half, given that half the population is female. And don't let us catch them earning less than their male grognard counterparts. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
