Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order

Hey it's the actor who plays Joker on Gotham.

 

According to the Microsoft Store the game runs at "4K" on Xbox One X with support for HDR and Variable Refresh Rate (VRR).

 

It' s a 3rd Person mellee action game ala Force Unleashed.
Trailer looks underwhelming and art direction not that hot.. But it's just a trailer so..

 

No Multiplayer
No Microtransactions

 

Effin jelly. I wish I had a C9

 

Trailer is underwhelming without gameplay footage but with the latest UE4 here's hoping it looks as good as 1313.

 

With a release this year one would doubt they're iterated on the engine anytime recently.

 

True but since it's customized for this game there might be some in house effects or features that could surprise us.

 

Gameplay > graphics. It would be nice it had cutting edge visuals, but I'm mostly intrigued by the way the combat has been described.

 

I actually liked the story beats of the trailer, would of liked some gameplay though. I don't think Respawn has any third person experience?

 

Other than cool looking eviroments and the Lightsaber combat tease, there is nothing exciting in it. If they're confident about their project then this is good news because it means they reveal the good stuff at a later stage.
The only thing that hypes me in a indirect way is that next-gen games should look this good.

 

After the eye rolling revelation that somehow Palpatine would make his way into episode IX, that tiny shred of hope I still had for the films is now completely gone. So the fact that getting spaced is no death sentence in SW was apparently just a means to prepare the audience for the fact that the force can literally do anything. And that includes protecting someone from death when he's right in the epicenter of a thermo nuclear explosion. Seems like Disney is now DC-level desparate.

 

There's a reason I never bother with expanded universe crap. It all seems like fan fiction nonsense to me (because it is I guess. Didn't Boba Fett also fight his way out of the Sarlac's stomach?). Besides, didn't Disney declare all that stuff non-canonical a while back?
Not that it would matter anyway, because removing stakes is pure poison from a story telling perspective no matter what.
I think the fact that everyone seems to become a force ghost is already pretty annoying, but at least those cannot do much more than recite fortune cookie wisdoms. At least in the movies.

 

Gooood. Gooood. Let the bran hate flow through you!


*not really interested in the new trilogy. Rogue One was great though.

I don't know what to make of this game, if it's going to be akin to The Force Unleashed games or... something actually good.

 

Actually, I've never been into Star Wars that much, save for SNES games that I loved, but this could be the game that make me return to the Star Wars world, if it turns out well.

 

Totally forgot about crazy-Yoda in TLJ. Sonic The Hedgehog's Casino Zone and woke pink lady's terrific idea of not sharing her plans tend to overshadow things.
