User reviews & Ratings

Gotta be honest, this game has been on and off my wishlist ever since it came to steam, but every time I was planning to buy it, I saw another less than favourable review and changed my mind. First of all yes the 70 dollars not including the DLCs is a steep price, but I can't say it's any worse here than any other AAA game. That said I picked it up at 50% off sale and I am very happy with my purchase. Went into this without many expectations and I was pleasantly surprised. Jumped in right after finishing KCDII and this was a very welcomed change of pace. The game isn't complicated. If someone expects detailed world and intricate mechanics like in KCDII or RDR2 of course they'll be disappointed, but what the game sets out to do it does well. First I'd like to start with the good. The worlds are beautiful. It's always nice to see more of the Star Wars universe. Of course in bigger settlements and cities it feels like the NPC's only job is to stand around and look busy, but when you venture out into the open world it feels much more alive. I especially like the amount of non-human characters the game has. Also minigames! They are so much fun, especially Sabacc (to the point I bought the card game irl). The only minigame I didn't like so much was the slicing, as it does get repetitive fast. As for the graphics I can't really judge since I never really cared about that, but I think the game looks good enough. Not a masterpiece, but I wouldn't say it looks bad either. For the story I think it's a nice change from all the frontline combat we've seen in most other SW games. Both the main and side missions were fun and interesting, although could be viewed by some as repetitive. Wasn't an issue for me as I enjoyed the core gameplay loop, so the reason for doing it didn't matter that much. Don't wanna say too much about the story as not to spoiler it, so I'll leave it at that. The maps themselves are fun to explore since you have something to find around every corner. I myself am an absolute loot goblin so this is all I need to have a lot of fun. The exploration is also helped by how much fun is riding the speeder. Seriously the driving is so good, it feels heavy and fast, yet you have complete control over it. I've seen a lot of people complaining about the combat. From what I've heard it was worse on launch, but as it is now I think it's a lot of fun. The blasters feel punchy and there's a lot of them to pick up. The enemies aren't the smartest, but feels more like a deliberate choice so the game can have a lot of them thrown at you. They do however hit hard, so it's not like the game's a complete shooting range. Of course a big part is stealth, the same about the enemies applies here. Not very smart, but there's a lot of them so you still have to be careful or you'll be gunned down fast. Some people were apparently also dissatisfied with the takedown animations, but I think they are perfectly lore accurate to the Star Wars universe (if in the last episode of Andor a guy can headbutt a stormtrooper to knock him out and people love the show, I don't see why it should be an issue here). The only flaw of the combat is that with the base blaster configuration (which you'll probably use for most of the game) the damage to the body is awful, so you practically need to hit headshots every time. With KB+M that's easy enough, but could be an issue on a controller. Now we get to the not so good territory. The flying and combat in space. Don't get me wrong the combat is perfectly fine, but same as most SW games I've played the flying just lacks the punch and speed you see in the movies. The game also suffers the same issues as Starfield, since you can fast travel even between planets you have no reason to ever use your ship unless it's specifically for a mission, as even the loot in space is just to further upgrade your ships or collectibles. But at least unlike Starfield the loading screens are made more interesting with character dialogues and fully skippable once the loading is done. When it comes to the cartel system it's a mixed bag. The idea is great, having to carefully balance my reputation with each cartel to get rewards and make sure they don't hunt me for sport, but in practice you practically need to have good reputation with all of them at all times to fully enjoy the game. For that reason a lot of the time I didn't even want to do some cartel missions, knowing it usually means doing mission for one cartel makes me lose reputation with another. The cartels also didn't really feel distinct in any way, as most of the time they were just stats on a screen, all giving you the same missions and overall just behaving the same. In conclusion I think the game is a solid 8/10. Not groundbreaking in any way, but perfectly fine and fun game that will challenge you just enough to keep you entertained. Sadly with how poorly it sold I don't think we'll get much more content in the future, but it also means the game is getting massive discount, so I'd recommend waiting for that before buying.

The game captures the essence of being a rogue on the run, blending space travel, smuggling, and high-stakes heists. While the setting and premise are exciting, the narrative struggles to provide the depth needed to make its characters truly compelling. Despite its potential, the game falls short in delivering a truly transformative character arc for various characters, which affects the emotional impact of the story. The story follows Kay Vess and Nix, a rag-tag duo trying to carve out their own path in a galaxy ruled by criminal syndicates. While the premise is engaging, the execution leaves something to be desired, particularly in Kay's development. Other story narratives typically show characters growing and changing due to their experiences, yet characters feels largely the same at the end of the game as they do when they are introduced. This lack of progression diminishes the stakes of the journey, making major story beats feel less impactful than they should be. Gameplay in Star Wars Outlaws provides a mix of third-person combat, exploration, and spaceflight, offering a variety of activities for players to engage in. Gunplay is serviceable but lacks the weight and fluidity of the best shooters, making combat encounters feel somewhat standard. The open-world elements introduce an impressive amount of freedom, yet the missions often rely on familiar tropes and repetitive objectives. While the ability to interact with different syndicates and choose how to approach missions is a highlight, it doesn't always lead to meaningful changes in the story. Visually, the game is a stunning recreation of the Star Wars universe, featuring beautifully detailed environments, immersive lighting, and well-designed character models. The various planets feel distinct and lived-in, creating an authentic and rich sci-fi world for players to explore. Animations and facial expressions are solid, but some cutscenes suffer from stiffness, occasionally breaking immersion. Despite minor inconsistencies, the overall presentation does justice to the grandeur and grit of the Star Wars galaxy. Overall, Star Wars Outlaws delivers an exciting adventure with engaging gameplay and breathtaking visuals but falls short in its storytelling and character development. Kay's journey, while full of action and intrigue, lacks the emotional depth needed to make her arc truly memorable. The gameplay offers a variety of experiences, though some aspects feel underwhelming or repetitive over time. Despite its narrative shortcomings, the game's attention to detail and immersive world-building make it an enjoyable experience for Star Wars fans. Star Wars Outlaws gets a 6/10.

I've played this game to it's fullest, 150+ hours to complete the main story along with everything I could possibly do along the way. I only got the gold edition for the DLC's. I think it's a great game and to me it is worth the price of the gold edition. Comparing it to other recent Star Wars titles, it may not have the strongest story line but it's still a good story and to me it was very entertaining. The game has copped a lot of shade by a lot of people and I can't see why, maybe they missed the point of the game. Being an open world game you need to explore everything and find as much loot and interesting things as you possibly can, and not all of it will be spoon fed to you. I will say I've hit a lot of achievements that very few other players have achieved before me, like 1% for some basic things like doing 40 contracts (I did 40 before even leaving the first planet) and that tells me most people are just powering through the main story and not exploring all there is to this game, which a shame. I think this game gets worse reviews from people than it should. Sure it's not revolutionary but I think it's a good game.

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

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.
