I've been playing Star Wars games since the early 90s, starting with X-Wing. So that being said, I'm an old guy now, and maybe all of the microplastics that they put in my lunchables finally ended up giving me the skibbidy woke mind virus, but honestly this is a genuinely entertaining game. I’d go as far as to say it’s the most fun I’ve had with a Star Wars title in quite a long time (besides maybe Squadrons which actually ripped). I’m not sure how “Outlaws” was on launch, but I can tell you that so far it feels better than almost everything Ubisoft (not a high bar) has put out since AC Origins (the last time they released something better than “meh”). The atmosphere is fantastic, audio is great and the open world(s) feel alive and unique but still very much “Star Wars”. Yes, some of the animation work is what you'd expect from a modern Ubisoft title (D-Tier), but movement and exploration are actually surprisingly enjoyable. The progression systems are a little bit shallow but the absence of the typical “90000 branch skill tree” and the bloat that comes with it has been very refreshing. The quests/missions feel nicely varied and I am constantly finding interesting side content and little surprises hidden everywhere. Overall the game just feels really good to play. TLDR; If you are a Star Wars fan I would recommend giving it a try. If you are on the fence I’d still recommend giving it a try. You will get a good feel for it before the 2 hour refund window. A very solid 7/10

Great game, I didn't play before the update so I don't know how bad it was before the update, it's far from the best games but it's not nearly as bad as people are saying right now. It has interesting characters, a beautiful atmosphere, a story that will keep you hooked even if it's not amazing, and in my opinion pretty decent gameplay. I also love the idea of working for different factions and choosing who you want to do good for and upset the other. If you're looking for a star wars game where you can explore and experience the star wars universe in an open world as a normal human and not a jedi, I would recommend giving this game a try.

With the overhaul, it is a good game, especially if you're a fan of open world adventures. There are a lot of issues though. The biggest detriment (for this alone the game would be a thumbs down for many) is the overall writing direction, which ruins a lot of the enjoyment in two ways: 1) The beat-by-beat moments taking place in the main story are unbelievably silly at times, not Star Wars campy fun, but actually just complete soap opera nonsense (one of the antagonists shoots a combat droid, and then tries to punch it with her fist as a major event) 2) Side quests don't even try to tell any meaningful stories. Games like Witcher 3 and AC Odyssey are titans of the exact same genre in this regard - they're known for hours long side quest storylines, with interesting characters, meaningful events, and memorable gameplay experiences. The side quests aren't bad in Outlaws, because they practically aren't anything at all, it's the definition of filler fluff. Tens of hours of soulless busywork. Whoever decided that this was the way to go should have a serious performance review, simple as. On a positive note, Ubisoft does shine here with what they're known best for: crafting the most detailed and immersive open worlds out there. Regardless of what the sentiment may be about any given Ubisoft game's other qualities, their artists along with the Snowdrop engine are absolutely carrying the experience. This is a game where you can just walk around in any given location for fun and see all the details while listening to an incredible ambience mixed with a fantastic soundtrack. One significant issue that stems from having the biggest game zones at this point, is a bad case of "how the f*ck do I get up there" - cliffs and higher terrain in general have radiuses of whole kilometers. Without having the Assassins Creed parkour system, you will spend a sizable chunk of the playtime riding your speeder around in circles looking for that one tiny climbable surface, which is incredibly frustrating and sucks the joy out of exploration. Other notes: + People said AC is too RPG these days, now they took the RPG out and streamlined it. Suddenly there's not enough RPG - impossible to make everyone happy. IMO there is a good mix of rigidity but enough unlocks to customize your approach to the various combat and stealth situations + Sabacc, absolutely love gambling we do + The overhauled shooting feels very good, although the initial blaster configuration just simply feels by far the most powerful if you can pull off headshots reliably + Speeder is good + Spaceship gameplay is decent, they didn't oversell it, purely there for some gameplay variety, it's solid + Considering how detailed the locations look, performance is pretty remarkable. You'll have 20-40 NPC-s on screen in the cities at times walking and talking and barely feel a hit to framerate, while Dragons Dogma 2 will choke to 20fps with 10 NPC-s + Audio is top tier, absolutely every beep and boop sounds how it should, combat effects sound impactful, mixing is mostly great + Great soundtrack, no notes + Customization is quite good for what it is (not an RPG), a wide variety of clothes, bike and ship paintjobs, and Nix details + Nix + Main crew of characters are likable + Most of the dialogue writing can be quite good + Hacking minigame is creative and one of the best I've experienced - simple, intuitive and fast + The faction system is well executed and having rewards and consequences always rewards you for making different decisions + With the overhaul, stealth really is quite good, there aren't obnoxious detection issues, it's not overly punishing, etc. + The main story/narrative itself is pretty fun - Dank farrik - Moving across any terrain that isn't flat ground can be incredibly wonky - Quite a few bugs, even unable to finish a quest - When the game works well, it can feel like something straight out of a movie, but when it (inevitably) breaks, it is very frustrating and a massive problem - clearly things were not playtested enough - Kay doesn't have any real personality, well over halfway through the story, and she is exactly the same as she was at the start, basically just serves the purpose of propelling the story forward - If you save in a mission and reload later, the enemies all respawn, what even is this? - The side content truly is just absolute burnout inducing fluff - If you're in a negative reputation faction's territory, the game spawns gangs of 6 speeders to chase you down like every 60 seconds - why is this necessary - They use one female NPC model for like 5 different quests in the game, is that really where you ran out of budget? Really breaks the immersion - Just jank and more jank, it is by far the jankiest Ubisoft game I've ever played Sabacc/10

If Ubisoft got rid of DRM, and didn't link this game to Ubisoft Connect, it would get a lot more love. The game itself is GREAT after the 1.4 patch. Outlaws does things that I expected of Starfield, minus a first person view. It gives you seamless transitions from space. Open areas to explore on your speeder or on foot. And the speeder is one of the most fun vehicles to drive that I ever used in a video game. Your weapon and vehicle upgrades are meaningful. Kay and Nix are likable characters. Etc, etc. It's a shame some people hold a bias against the main character or Ubisoft, and won't allow themselves to enjoy Outlaws. It's interesting how that didn't happen with Hogwarts last year.

EDIT: 11/22 they added a comparison chart today, yay! I thought Steam required developers to clearly outline the differences between Standard, Gold, and Ultimate editions on the store page. Unfortunately, I had to dig around online to figure out what each pack includes. For those in the same boat, here’s what I found (though it’s not officially listed on Steam, so buyer beware): Standard Edition: The base game. Gold Edition: The base game, the Season Pass, the Wild Card and A Pirate’s Fortune DLCs, the exclusive Day 1 mission Jabba’s Gambit, and the Kessel Runner Character Pack. Ultimate Edition: The base game, the Season Pass, two cosmetic bundles, and a digital art book. Hope this helps! With all the noise surrounding every AAA game these days, I’ll reserve judgment on the content until I’ve had the chance to play it myself.
