This game was INCREDIBLE. I played it all the way through and collected everything. I was blown away by how good the story was.
It's so good to hear that! After all these years of EA developing a new Battlefront and disappointing the fan community so hard, it is a true relief to hear that they actually made a STORY for this game. It's good to have another good Star Wars game, now. If you asked me they can take as much time as they need to develop a
good game meaning that they include a story, a campaign, believable characters and a balance between them. Battlefront was just thrown on the market and added on with all those DLCs you even had to pay for.
.... Please share your thoughts and experience. I don't play the games (not since Jedi academy or battle front II... But I did eventually get the force unleashed games for DS under $5 hahahaha)... And would love to hear all about it WITHOUT watching some random nerds walk-through with un-needed inane commentary.
Jedi Academy and the old Battlefront games are just epic...as said before I also enjoyed playing The Force Unleashed (One). Nice score on your DS versions! I will get Jedi: Fallen Order, too! I'm going to get it used for about 15€.
Yesterday I won an auction for EA's Battlefront 2 for 10,50€ shipped. Can't wait for it to arrive to play it with my brother on his PS4. I'm also going to pick up Battlefront 1 for 5€ tomorrow. I hope it works this time around (no scratches on the disc).
My favorite SW game to date still is Revenge of the Sith. There are so many other good ones as you mentioned already, but for some reason I fell for this game when it all started.
Btw I feel the same about the let's play videos on YouTube. I watched a few to learn how excellent the game actually is. But I can't watch them for long because they make me want to play it, too!
Plus too much random talking...
This game takes some of the best gameplay mechanics from other games and puts a Star Wars spin on it. You have wall running (Titanfall), Puzzle Solving (Tomb Raider reboot), boss fights (Dark Souls), and timed light saber/force using combat (street fighter). If you like the concept of being a Jedi survivor after order 66, this is the game for you.
There are also several secret locations to explore, hidden bosses, and random bounty hunters who will fight you on all the planets.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience, RC! I will get this game used later on. Instead I just got both Battlefront games from EA and can't wait to play them myself. I'll spend days exploring each detail of the maps!
It seems like many players recognized that Fallen Order makes use of other games' features and controls. It's precious that you have so many references to compare. I got some serious Assassin's Creed vibes while watching a gameplay. AC is the only game I know for reference.
Please, correct me if I'm wrong, but I got the impression that Fallen Order focuses more on the lightsaber battle, climbing and finding hidden paths rather than force abilities?
I really enjoyed the unleashed force power of Starkiller, but maybe it was a little too much power. The balance of force power and lightsaber skills were just right to me, though.
But as far as I know Cal has close to zero force abilities, which makes total sense since he's a padawan. Does he develop his skills throughout the story?
