Is Jedi not considered open world? I get that it has closed off parts and progress gatekeeping but you ae free to ram entirely and travel between planets. Most planets are not linear levels and have other stuff to do.
Geez, I wish it didn’t all come down to which sold more. They’ll probably over-learn some grand arbitrary lesson from this. Outlaws was an awesome game. Granted, I had very low expectations, but it blew them away with the main gameplay and the minigames.
It felt genuinely like Star Wars, and they managed to pull that off without lightsabers or Jedi. Kind of like Andor did to be honest, though they’re not really comparable.
The locations were unique and variable, but very familiar to fans. The combat was simple and nobody is overpowered, and you feel like you’re part of a massive anonymous galaxy filled with scoundrels trying to survive.
And again, the minigames…I lost sooo many hours to Sabacc.
I also loved both Outcast and Survivor, but they’re very different, and I really hope not everybody judges Outlaws with those games as the only reference.
Edit: I don’t understand the downvotes. This is just, like, my opinion, man.
From time to time I go to the steam page of Jedi Survivor. Loved Fallen Order but apparently they shat the bed with Survivor and STILL haven't fixed the dogshit performance. At this point I'll probably have to wait for a RTX 7000 series to be able to play it
It plays fine on my three-four year old rig, with a 2070 Super.
I know it all depends on everything else though.
Not a fun experience on my desktop 1070 Ti
Depending on your luck, it's not as bad as it seems. I was able to play fine on an 6950 XT except for one location that I only ever was in for 3 minutes or so. Didn't even had to use any upscaling settings, played it native at 1440p and it was consistently above 90 FPS iirc.
It was way more fun than Fallen Order and I already thought Fallen Order was hella fun.
Apparently the way they coded Dead Space remake, even future upgrades might not be able to solve the stutters, because it involves loading levels as you walk towards a door.
I just don't want a massive open world game all of the time. I'd already played ffvii rebirth and put 90 hours into it. After that I want something different for the rest of the year. No matter how much I enjoy star wars
