Star Wars Outlaws review
Meh
by BloodScorchedSun

I enjoyed this game for them most part but I do wish they would have focused more on the outlaw and scoundrel side of the story instead of falling back into the Rebellion vs Empire trope that just about every other SW game has. I will give it credit for not having any jedi in it. There was a lot of potential in the systems that didn't really go anywhere. Most of your upgrades will be maxed out fairly soon in the game, especially if you do a good amount of contracts. I found it annoying that a lot of the ship upgrades only had one or two levels to them, leaving you a fairly basic toolset. The story was meh for the most with Nix carrying most of the weight. I am surprised the platforming and climbing weren't better seeing as this is Ubisoft who has an entire franchise built on climbing walls. Granted this is Massive, you'd still think some of that would trickle down. What really ruined this game for me was after getting a little over half way through the game it started crashing like crazy. I think I had to have experienced at least 25 crashes in as many hours, if not less, when finishing the game up. I haven't had technical issues like that on console in a very long time.

leave aside the hatred towards ubisoft and the bad choices they have made lately. the game is good, it is a good game especially for a star wars fan, especially after the last update. don't follow the flock of sheep who hate games without playing them
