Jedi: Fallen Order.

I love Star Wars. I hate this game. I am unbelievably frustrated with the gameplay, the map, the UI. This game could be a 10/10 for me, if it wasn’t so frustrating. I do not like rage games, this is not a rage game, but it has brought me to a point where I do not get any enjoyment playing it. The combat feels unrefined, whenever I feel like I am finally learned it, and creating important muscle memory reactions, I will die, or fail, or whatever, and learn nothing.

50% of my deaths are because an offscreen enemy jumps me from across the galaxy while my camera lock is doing… Whatever the fuck it wants, parries and dodges seem more like a suggestion to the game, and traversing the ‘map’ during combat is an absolute nightmare.

This is my 3rd time trying this game, I get further and further every time, but with how it is designed, every obstacle does not feel like a hurdle to overcome, but it feels as if the game is just throwing things at you to slow you down, to make the game seem longer.

I wish I could recommend people this game, I just can’t. I can’t recommend it, because it’s main appeal, is what is killing it. I never feel in control, the game is just so clunky and still buggy somehow.

I have recently been replaying many games I used to consider ‘hard’ or ‘rage games.’ And I do fine in most. But this game has just done something that makes it more of a chore, than something I can play to unwind.

I’m probably alone on this so, flame me all you want. It just needed to be said.
