- Star Wars Outlaws reviewed by Tristan Ogilvie on PlayStation 5. Also available on PC and Xbox.
"It’s ironic that Kay’s ship is called the Trailblazer, since there’s actually not a whole lot of ideas in Star Wars Outlaws that haven’t been done before in other action and open-world adventures. Instead, it’s quite like the Millenium Falcon: a bucket of bolts held together with repurposed parts and prone to breaking down, but at its best it’s more than capable of jolting your pleasure centres into Star Wars fan hyperspace. A clever syndicate system brings real weight to almost every task you choose to undertake, some of which have creative quest designs that can often conjure up some genuinely stunning blindsides. Having a pal like Nix at your side the entire time not only adds an extra dimension to Kay’s fairly generic smuggler character, but also gives her an enhanced set of useful abilities. But even he can’t quite make its stealth and combat feel any less rigid and repetitive, and the odds of avoiding the many glaring technical issues present at launch are 3,720 to one. But you probably didn’t want me to tell you the odds."
Oh the classic ‘7’ rating from IGN. It’s their way of saying, “We want to rate it less, but we don’t want to piss off Disney and lose our media benefits.”
That's not remotely how it works
@@titularherothen you are lost -obi wan
Ah Lord grant me the confidence of UA-cam commenters, the vast majority of which spout absolute fantasy of how the real world works. Grow up, children. Get a job. This isn't the way videogames reviews work. And it isn't the way corporate media works. And it isn't the way corporations work. You think a 7 is the big smash review Disney wanted? Go watch some of your favourite UA-camrs and streamers, individuals actually granted gifts and exposure and media access but whom you clowns would trust and you would believe everything they say as 'independent media' 😂
Exactly
or maybe most AAA games are mediocre...
If IGN gives it a 7, take away 2 points, everyone knows the rules
Not always they gave stellar blade a 7 but this deserves a 5 i agree on that one.
@@WarrentheGunnersomebody remember SB lol
They gave Black Myth Wukong an 8 and that seemed to make a lot of people mad. If they had given it a 6 it seems like there would have been riots.
Love the Portnoy reference!
@@Garrus1995These days people are always mad about everything. For those of you who were babies 15 years ago, back then mostly people just wanted to enjoy games, and only started a pitchfork mob for something truly awful. (See: Daikatana)
YT has given content creators a reason to make angry indignation a business model. I’ll stick with Mortismal and Gameranx, they just review games without weird political agendas or sheeple hate mobbing.
Great, I'll buy this next year when it's $19.99 and most of the bugs are fixed.
The character model will be fixed ?
@@Radjamminuse mods
@@Radjamminwhat's wrong with the character model?
Took the words right out of my mouth.
Thanks for letting us know when nobody cares you clown
Giving this a 7 is the best example of why no one takes IGN seriously anymore. What a joke.
It has that strong female protagonist though!!! 💀
@@MangoTroubles-007 its + 6 point
Remember when they gave Days Gone a 6.5 and the reviewer sounded like she hardly even touched the game? Now they're giving this crap a 7.
They doing this so disney won't be mad
Let’s be reasonable. Why doesn’t the game deserve a 7? When there is far worse games
You gave this and Concord a 7, while giving Wukong an 8...
We truly don't hate you guys enough.
"You think that you hate game journalists, but you don't hate them enough."
The power of 1
The power of 2
The power of *7*
Lmao
Lmfao 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
LOL
Power of PS plus extra 😂
😂😂😂
Spent the whole video saying how many issues there were and how lacklustre combat and stealth are. Gives it a 7. Why??
💰
He also said the sidequests were fun, graphics great for the mostpart, and fun overall.
Just watch bombastic, hes basically showing the game instead of rare bugs and glitches.
@@ElkCreed so it a meh game at best
Mr.krabs has entered the chat
Because its IGN.
If wukong is 8 then this should be 3
Otherway around.

You think IGN is bad?

never heard of them
They're just doing that for clicks no one actually goes there for journalistic integrity

@@deenman23bro what!
@@deenman23 You have amine girl as your avatar, the majority of people are nothing like you, we already know..
Calls out a load of technical errors, bugs and lack of innovation still gave it a 7 🤨
But muh GRAFIX!!
It has a little something for everyone
Can't lose those media benefits.
Remember guys 7 is bad that’s what I’ve gathered when they give 7s to other games and people complain
Dropping secondary weapons is so lazy
And crazy in 2024.
Feels like they were too lazy to make animations to let you holster them.
Yup, that definitely felt disappointing to me !
My guess is that they were trying to remind you that this is a Han Solo type character and needs to look badass while wielding a blaster most of the time
It’s meant to keep you on your toes and to make sure you see all the weapons. Not lazy. Just a decision.
If IGN gave this game a 7 then it's really a 5
Yeah, not sure why but people seem to not understand that 7/10 is actually a very solid rating as it's well above average (5) but this game doesn't seem to be that at all. 5 would probably be the best it realistically can get.
The Starfield effect
Its amazing, you will see
That’s being generous
So elden ring is an 8?
IGN: Execute order 7
everyone else: Again???
Best comment haha😂

Watching the slow, painful, death of Star Wars has been surreal.
You can thank Disney for that
It’s only happening in your imagination.

Just people being boomers and whining about non white, non straight characters

Sounds really funny😅
Sprite is better
😂
Why does everything Star Wars have to take place on Tatooine? "If There's A Bright Centre Of The Universe, You're On The Planet That's Furthest From”
Because sand.
Same reason they brought back Palpatine, the Death Star TWICE, Tarkin and Vader in Rogue One, Leia in Rogue One and Kenobi, Luke in Mando, Boba in Mando, etc… to quote Rich Evans: Star Wars is creatively bankrupt. They need nostalgia to sell stuff, and that’s never been more true than at this point where we’re at the absolute rock bottom of Star Wars as a brand.
Because they're lazy
@@bencarlson4300Boom
The Jed games from Redpawn are the only ones that use new planets (aside from Corruscunt)
Three things in life are certain; death, taxes and a 7 from IGN.
Of there last 10 reviews only three have been a 7.
Its Like that Cyberpunk game called: Nobody Wants To Die 😅LOL
Only if you're in the back pocket of the corporation and named IGN
@Philpot1992, that's a lot of 7s, btw.
@@harmansidhuMU you want one of each number?
7 is the most versatile number in the IGN scoring system. Some say there was a time when it had actual meaning, but the meaning is long forgotten.
Unbelievable that this would get a 7. The review itself would suggest a 5 at best.
So basically “it has so many problems, most of which make gameplay extremely frustrating, and at some points terrible, but we love Star Wars and She Hulk, so it’s still a 7/10”
Bro you’re so ragebaited
@@MagicalSkyWizardlol ok? Sounded like a normal criticism.
@MagicalSkyWizard your comment makes no sense
@@MagicalSkyWizard go watch acolyte kiddo
@@MagicalSkyWizard oh someone criticized my dear IGN, must be ragebait
Why do modern games look worse than the stuff we got 15 years ago.
Because their rushing more to get games out
because u are delusional
Lack of talent and the creative spark
There's no soul and passion put into a lot of them nowadays. Just greed or a quick cash grab.
Because before it was about passion and love for making a game
Today it’s only about the Money.
Omg the way this guy speaks is driving me mad, one sentence picks up and ends with a high inflection then the next lowers and ends with a low one, on every single 2 sentences! Argghh
Wait till you learn that everyone else has their own repetitive cadence they use while speaking
They don't. @@romilrh
@@ohJettzenThey absolutely, without question, do. This is not an opinion. It is fact.
Australians talk like that
That's how your posting strikes me! Argghh!
7!? really!? you pointed out every bad thing about the game and yet you gave it a 7. What a joke!
there was zero mention of the sound/music as well
How did Wukong only get ONE more point than this?
Lack of diversity 😂
Not inclusive.
Because it's just like any other boss rush game
Wokong is extactly a 7 to 8 MAX that game is overhyped
@@joseduarte2146 it's still a lot better than Outlaws
Free Disneyland trips couldn't save this mess.
Glad I'm not the only one to remember that. That's exactly where that score came from lol
Lollll
Every freaking spoken sentence ending in the same tone by the reviewer, unbearable to listen to
What do you mean ?
Blah B-lah lah b-lah-lah, b-lah lah blablabla
Not as bad as Sunny V2 though! He drags the last word out forevaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh
@@noctislucis5862 But not as bad as Chills!
Get a hearing aid then, so u can make out those tones
The quote at 6:28 is brutal 😂
I've come to expect that kinda thing from Tristan's reviews. I'm sure he's a great dude...but he has the cringiest reviews of just about anyone at IGN. Tries WAY too hard to be witty/clever, uses alliteration like it's going out of style, etc etc hahaha
Sounds like something GmanLives would say, especially in the tone and inflection.
@@digitalpayne8287 He's literally by far the most normal guy that reviews games for IGN. The rest are riddled with A, and wear bowties to family dinners.
@@digitalpayne8287 You Americans really hate humor and want everything politically correct and sanitised huh
Highlight of the video
How is IGN still in business
Nobody trusts them lmfao
Because UA-cam comments do not accurately represent the majority of people. It represents a small percentage of people who like to complain endlessly. The vast 95% of people don’t care and just go to their website and watch the video and click off when finished.
@@joebillage3578you are incompetent
Well for starters, people like you visit their UA-cam channel and watch their reviews (despite saying no one trusts them, here you are, along with over 750,000 others who “don’t trust” them. 🤣) and you even comment to generate some engagement. If you really didn’t trust them or care what they had to say you wouldn’t even be here. But you come here, just to make a fuss so people will be aware that you exist.
Not all Australians sound like this. We apologise
Only one point less than Wukong... With all the glaring problems it seemed like this should be a 5.
Exactly smh
You already know the score
Can't beat the classics! 7 and the 7 sevens...
10/10? My Gawd
7 lol?
guessing 7. Everything is 7. But will he whine about inclusion and diversity?
Ign only gives 9 or 10 to gta or red dead
The biggest turn off for me is when you shoot a blaster to an enemy in the head and it doesn't kill the enemy right away, even without a helmet. Like how do they expect us to be immersed when a laser gun is comically worse than IRL guns?
Not even talk about she's beating all the soldiers and stormtroopers while not wearing any armor. It's really hard for me to be immersed and believe that I'm actually fighting against Stromtroopers when they can't even beat a woman in a leather jacket.
Stormtroppers are canonically clowns
Stormtroopers couldn't beat Han and Leia either.
You don’t instantly kill people without armor using a lightsaber in Jedi survivor or fallen order
@@blacksheep6415
Be a lot cooler if it did
@@blacksheep6415well you can if you play on a decent difficulty...
Yeah this feels like he wanted to give it a 4/10 with all the issues he mentioned, but, IGN wouldn't allow it and made him make it a 7/10.

Worse than Starfield but better score is crazy
This game already looks better than starfield. And that isn’t saying much.
@@keoki_ well starfield is not a game, its a tech demo/placeholder
@darvamehleran786 more like an empty modding canvas. Every planet is designed empty so modders can make their own content. The big problem is skyrim and fallout are way more popular than starfield, so all the big modders are ignoring starfield and modding fallout 4, fallout nv and skyrim instead.
@@anakinskywalker4596 every bethesda game is a modding canvas, starfield is just an empty one, like u said.

20 hours to complete for an open world game ?! That’s laughably low .
Meaty side quests, explore every planet for points of interest you're looking at around 50 hours plus
Tbh, it's not for most people. I'm tired of 50 long epics. Most people have jobs and a life. 20 hours is like at least a month for the average normal gamer

What would IGN be without the number 7 😂
they will give it then a 6+1
6.9
They'd go get 8🤫‼️
8-1
It's a 4 or a 5 they gave it a plus for diversity.
Man this guy’s cadence
Dry asf
Listening to this guy is painful. He uses the same 2 tones of voice in a pattern throughout the whole video. It's so repetitive like a robot
Every single sentence, same exact inflection. It’s infuriating. First half of the sentence inflection up in the end, second half inflection down.
That goes for every Australian that makes UA-cam videos
IGN needs to understand that is not the Australian version of the channel. If Australians like to butcher spoken language cadence, let them do it,
but don't make the rest of the world suffer through it.
My nephew whos 25 just recommended this to me tonight. He loves it
Clicked just to make sure they gave it a 7 and went straight to the comment section. Was not disappointed
£70 - £120 for a 20 hour main campaign, not the best graphically for a AAA title, Im thinking 5/10 based on the review
This guy says every sentence with the exact same inflection every time.
aaah a UBI game , that means the game will be ready
10 months after the release ..
Factually correct
That's at least 20 months before a CD Projekt Red production :D
On conclusion: Buy the complete version, entirely patched and with the Han-Solo skin mod, about a year from now.
Thanks for operating the review, how much did you receive from ubi?
1:50 is the stuff of nightmares
😂😂
The auto target kill ISN'T from red dead redemption dude. That's the Mark and Execute ability from Splinter Cell: Conviction.
My thoughts exactly
How is this a 7? Its not even a 5
LoL. It's 6 at GameSpot
Didn’t watch the video. Came for the comment section and it delivered 😂
always remembering that IGN gave 7.1 to Doom 2016, and gave 7 to Concord and Star Wars Outlaws; according to IGN, Doom 2016 is a 0.1 game better than both

"the combat is rigid, the story is stale, and the game is full of bugs. 7/10"
ya, skipping this entirely. Thanks for the review anyway.

"It seems less Bad Batch, and more basic @#₹%^." I died. 😂
Well, more time for me to play Black Myth Wukong !!
Hell yeah brother. Get them multiple endings.
Somehow, palpatine appeared and gave this game a 7
with all of the "marketing" this game got across multiple social media platforms just get a 7-2 while Wukong was kinda quiet ended up breaking records.... oh IGN you've lived long enough to see yourself become the villain
Game looks awful.
Edit: You know this game is awful when a 15 minute review feels like 30 minutes.
Edit 2: @12:10 nothing seems fun or authentic. The animation looks awful how she runs to instant slides, which led to the quirky "wooow, we're going in". Who would ever guess you were going into the pit when you decided to go in the pit. Game is soulless.
How come IGN video reviews aren't 4k?
The bitrate is awful too, almost unwatchable.
Probably wouldn’t use the word pikey so casually
Just a casual ethnic slur but not an ethnicity they care about so its fine
Agreed
mate my jaw hit the floor yikes
Time stamp? lol
We're editing that out. Our sincere apologies - that word seems to be UK-specific, and those of us who worked on this were ignorant of the meaning behind it. We've been informed and have learned from this mistake!
Every single sentence has exactly the same inflection. Every single one. It drives me insane.
high note... low note... high note... low note
Finally a new game for my PS2.
This looks absolutely terrible.
1 day after released : 90% discounts
Not that far, 60% off lmao
So let me get this straight... It's riddled with bugs.. the story is *OK* at best... the gunplay is lazy.. the stealth aspect is slapped in as an afterthought... the visuals drop in and out.. important dialogue may or may not work... objectives won't show when they should, forcing restarts galore... you even highlight 'running from a sandworm' showing graphics worse than a playstation 2 game... and it gets a 7/10? Did you even play the game? Or did a brand exec have your family at gunpoint?
This game is 9 years too late. If it had come out in 2015 instead of battlefront this would’ve been a huge success back then, but today it just feels like another Ubisoft game with a star wars skin on top.
The video review : mostly negative
The rating : 7

I'll get this game next year when Epic games gives it for free.
I’ve seen the gameplay and ain’t no way this is 7/10. This should be 5 or less 😤. So much for unbiased journalism.
Loving this game. Came to see how negative everyone is in the comments. Pretty par for the course. The art and world building, level design and many simple yet effective video game tropes keep it entertaining and addicting. And the level of detail in the world is mind blowing, if you want to just escape into a world that feels alive it delivers. Feels like a real Star Wars adventure, and the developers should be proud of this. Some people complain that things are too simple, like stealth, or shooting. But those are things that are made fun by the many puzzles and platforming segments that tie them together, and make you feel like you're exploring a real place. It really is amazing how good gaming has got, and how hard people are to impress these days.
80% of the video is complaints and bad designs.
Ign: 7/10!
This game is a literal 0 . IGN has lost all credibility 💯
Only ONE drivable vehicle? Wait for a sale
It's a 7. If you feel like not watching till the end.
I’m an iOS developer. The fact that the average competitive salary for a mobile developer is more than a game developer ( which I believe to be the most difficult form of software development ) shows there’s a “talent” issue and the industry knows it. A lot of game developers today aren’t purists like they were back in the 90s - early 2000s… I feel like game developers today are people who love video games, just not making them.
I'm guessing it's a 7. I haven't watched the video yet.
You guessed right. IGN's favorite number
