So the new Axion plains update is out.
My thoughts on it?

Absolutely was not worth the wait.

You get a big empty map filled with like 5 missions which really aren't that unique from any others...
Minus how tanky the enemies are. "no power creeping" my ass nexon.

Still no buffs to the descendants that need it but screw it lets make Valby water stacking even more broken.

Incredibly overpriced cosmetics for the last two releases. Funnily enough, Nier Automata is actually on sale currently for more than half the cosmetic's price in this game, let that sink in.

And oh my lord, the performance problems.
They were bad before but some of axion plains brings me to 5 FPS on a 4070 with a ryzen 5900X.
I have never known a game to run this poorly.
And notably, the new Abyss boss has a move where it fires about 25 lasers in one direction that just annihilates your performance.
Guess it wasnt enough that he was already confusing enough to figure out and impossible to actually hit his weak points.

The only one thing i liked was the cutscenes this time around. But, as it happens, they two have errors and issues so...

Do i recommend this game now?

Would i have? Yes, any version before 1.0 has been miles better.

The main problem with this is of course what everyone else is saying: "Game runs badly" or "has stability problems" as well as "Development for release was rushed"

It is SO depressing to leave a negative review on this nice little game, it truely didn't deserve to be headed in this direction.
Its one of the only games of its kind and it could have potentially provided so much playtime for how much the game is.

Developers should always try to listen to their fans and should never fail to communicate like these guys have.
Countless community posts filled with the game's supporters desprately urging the devs not to release the game yet all fell on deaf ears at the hands of corprate platitude.

Now, looking at the entire game as a whole, it doesn't feel worth its previous price let alone the price increase they did for release.

Lets look at a similar example that was done correctly: Blade & sorcery

Blade and sorcery is a VR medieval fighting game that has been in development for somewhere near 6-ish years i believe. They recently did a full release 1.0 build that introduced so much content ON TOP of all the previously added content in 12 seperate content updates.

The game feels like a complete overhaul of its previous self, really cementing that proud v1.0 "Full Release" tag on its front page images whereas shadows of doubt had not even earned a fraction of the right.

And its clearly visible why this failed other than the miscommunication.
It would have been the fact that the game has only been in development for a year and 5 months and if you think that THAT is long enough to create a crack-shot procedurally generating game? Then you should be stuck in a mental hospital.

Think about this, what exactly do we have thats new content wise to do? We have like 2 murder types and 3 if you stretch it.
You've got:
Murderers that stab or bludgeon a victim and always leave a piece of evidence at the crime scene
Close range firearm murderers which get found easily due to bullet casings
And sharpshooters which could have been the game's difficult case type to solve but its always just "find the trajectory and see what the only line of sight from a window is".

To be fair, i have had murderers shoot from buildings that weren't where they lived or even near it as well has shooters perching on balconies on the 1st floor.

As a counter point, the murderer that i had on a balcony did shoot people through walls and i was only able to solve that case by standing IN PERSON at the location where people were dropping dead. And only then i watched someone drop dead right in front of me and by using clipping software and deducing where the muzzle flash came from, i was able to find him.

What the f*ck. If sharpshooters can just shoot through walls, how do you expect people to figure these kinds of cases out?
I only found him by bruteforcing by standing there for almost a real life hour waiting for time to pass by in real time. And even then, i had to use an external application to figure out your bullsh*t system.

As i said, i would have reccomended this in the past, and i have. But now?
ColePowered better hope this game attracts a good modding community...

110 Gigabytes of wasted time and space.

I have searched around the main area for 4 hours and only now have found the actual way towards the main story part of the game.

The achievement for getting to the main story part has a completion rate of 50%

What a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ appalling game

I haven't played much of this so take my words with a grain of salt.

I does really feel like this is more of a beta-test than an actual game. Though i believe it does give off really strong "fangame" vibes. Whoever made this clearly did want to do as best as they could but simply just didn't give it any of the polish it really needed.

From a game critiquing standpoint: Its very bad
From a portal fan critiquing standpoint: at least ya tried

I have previously made a review on Fallen order about its issues with the game play and bosses.
This game follows suit with being quite unforgiving with its combat on the normal difficulty.
There are a miriad of times where you get stunlocked or unfairly ganged up by about 4 high-tier enemies and they slap you to ♥♥♥♥ and then you die and then you alt+f4 because you cant take the game's ♥♥♥♥ anymore.

I'd say the bosses are better this time around. Except the final boss... Its still just as sucky as fallen order's final boss.
Unblockable attacks having less than half a second of time to react to... the only difficult part being the final bit where you get stunlocked into oblivion and having your guard broken over and over...

Of course its not meant to be easy... but isn't it meant to be fun to play too?

The new stances are... ok? i don't really know what to mention about them...
They are most likely meant to cater towards whatever playstyle you find best or easier but i found that basically the only one that seems to be viable at all is the dual wielding for speed.
Other than that, they ran the double-sided lightsaber into the ground, added the cross guard which was not interesting at all and got me killed every time i gave it a chance. Out of all of the new things they gave us, im glad dual wield isnt restricted to a single move like the last game. I also like how they gave us a gun/single blade stance which utterly deprecates the single blade stance

I do prefer this games usage and point of view in the post empire-ruled galaxy as it is the most packed timeframe of any star wars part.

I just find it funny that im at a loss for things to write about this game because basically all i mentioned about in my review about Fallen order is true here too.
Though if i had to sum it up...

Its the same game, but runs worse and takes forever to load.
I do hate to say it, but this game is somehow the best Disney Star Wars thing to come out in quite a while.
Congratulations Jedi survivor, you somehow managed to raise the bar an inch.
I just wish this game didn't have denuvo so it wouldn't have taken me £30 to write this crap

(Edited due to clowns)

I love Lego games.
I love Star wars

I don't think this game manages to live up at least to 70% of either of those two.

"Lego game shouldn't be third/first person shooter" is a clown response.

Edit for clowns: Let me explain for you dumbasses...
The fact that the lego game is a first and third person shooter is a bad thing. I wAs jUst trYing to sAy thAt the shortened response of [the thing in question] was a stupid thing to say all by its own.
I would have imagined this would be obvious... considering that the rest of the entire review follows this quote"
End Clown explaination.


This game breaks the simplicity of lego games of the past's format with a new, format shattering well... format.

The idea of the lego games (in my mind) being simplified versions of the story made sense. Legos are not very realistic are they?
But with this new format, they've tried to mix their simplistic style with the complexity of star wars as much as they physically could and have managed to create a game that doesn't know how to feel like a game.

It really does feel like this game had an identity crisis:
On one hand - its trying to be star wars battlefront
On another - Its trying to be Force unleashed
and another? - Jedi Fallen order

But the thing it SHOULD feel like, isnt present. It doesn't feel like - Lego Starwars.


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What about the DLC? you might say...

Its not worth it.
Just check the entire list if you want your own opinion.

76 British pounds for a bunch of characters that are not functionally different?
No...

All i see is corporate greed piggybacking on every Star Wars Sub-IP (such as Andor, rebels, book of boba fett ETC) and turning them into characters for almost a literal quick buck.

I was unfortunate enough to pre-order this game because i trusted TT Games as i've played their games since i was a small boi of only 10 years old. God how godamn wrong i was.

For my admiration and pride i showed to this franchise, what did i get for Pre-ordering?
A yellow Obi-wan-kenobi. Thats it.

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ disgraceful

Existence forces me to have bad experiences with this game or because of it or during it
