- Should You Buy Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order in 2023?
Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order is the first EA produced single player star wars experience from the developers at Respawn that was critically acclaimed when Jedi Fallen Order released back in November of 2019.
Now it's 2023 so lets find out if Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order really is that good and ultimately worth buying in 2023?
We will be focusing on the story of Jedi Fallen order and then the gameplay to really see if Jedi fallen order was that good.
This is my Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order review in 2023.
0:00 Intro/previous review
1:10 Story
5:53 Gameplay - Ігри
It was so weird seeing Ian Gallagher in a Star Wars video game
As someone who hates puzzle platformers, I was pleasantly surprised. Definitely getting Jedi: Survivor.
Really looking forward too it myself, I just hope they expanded on everything while leaving a few surprises for us to discover :D
Got it on sale and played three hours yesterday. I was impressed and it was a joyto play. The story kicks off shortly after Star Wars episode 3 and they really capture the Star Wars feel and aesthetic. The visuals are stunning and I have found myself just admiring the vistas.
I'm not a Star Wars fan, but I really enjoyed Fallen Order's story. The dialogue, acting and in particular the facial expressions are great.
@@scrubmatic yep, mass effect andromeda could learn a thing about that lol 😂😂
I picked it up a few weeks ago and played through it 3 times already, really enjoy it. I wish they had more Empire enemies and less creatures and more troops to enemies after you complete it. The maps are pretty baren when you roam around afterwards. Looking forward to Survivor.
Yup. Towards the end of the game you fight "zombies" and creatures, which I also found tiresome. Fortunately, the final act goes back to fighting the Empire.
i picked it up on steam and it is my first time playing it right now, i agree with you, more humanoids, less fauna.
I really enjoyed this when it first came out and have fond memories. You just encouraged me to revisit and enjoy it again. thanks and happy 2023 🙂
I hope you have a even better time Elselcho :D hope lifes all good for ya lad
Timing couldn’t have been better with this coming on ps plus this month thank you!
Glad I could help grandpappy
Timing on your comment couldn't be better as I was considering buying this, so thought I'd watch a review, seeing your comment saved me some money!
@@ruzhyophoenix4370 little moments like this makes me happy I made the channel for everyone to save some money :D
It is made by Respawn .
That’s why it’s so good .
EA was just the Publisher
Yep always mess up publishers with developers
Me being dumb lmfao
I got this on Steam for like 5 dollars on black Friday sale. Haven't played yet but watching your review got me little excited.
Give it a shot lad let me know if you enjoyed it :D
My only real gripes with this game are that the traversal could be more smooth/fluid feeling (although it's not bad, it just could be better), and that the level design can sometimes just be ATROCIOUS. I understand they were going for kind of a Souls/Metroidvania feel with shortcuts, backtracking, etc, but many of the level layouts are so confusing with so many twists and turns, dead ends, hidden areas, places you need to come back to with upgrades...I feel like I was constantly having a hard time figuring out just how to get to my next objective, even when frequently checking the map
Yeah, the map did the best it could, but when backtracking for secrets and 100%, it revealed the need for fast travel and/or a waypoint system.
That said, I think our gripes only effect completionists.
@@scrubmatic nobody wants waypoints
@@scrubmatic yeah, i used the flying glitch to get it 100% lmao
Those sound like positives honestly. The game forces you to explore around and find secrets and shortcuts, then makes those locations still relevant in the end game by having secrets that can only be unlocked after a certain amount of progression. It can be a bit tedious, but it's immersive and doesn't hold your hand
My exact same complaints. So frustrating just trying to get to the next objective.
this game is too good, it actually is so much fun and clean to play. Im hyped for the second game
High expectations for the sequel just hope they don’t disappoint
This game made me a fan of star wars
@@gabrielmitchell9562 Me Too
@@gabrielmitchell9562 then you havent played lego star wars skywallker saga
thanks for the lore, was looking for a good video , i am suprised i never played it , but figured i’d start yesterday since i’ll be getting survivor in a few days … and i’m lovin it! i am already geeking to play survivor knowing it’s gonna be GREAT.
How about the stuttering issue and fps drops? Did you experience it ? Am trying to play it on the PC but its a broken game !
Play it on the highest difficulty and you can have a pretty cool dark souls like experience.
I just want to know do you need Xbox game pass to play Star Wars Jedi fallen order? before I buy it.
Finally completed this week. Didn't like it at launch but came back to it and loved it!
Gotta be in the right mood for it :D
Make no mistake; this game is an action puzzle. You travel to different planets battling the forces of evil. Some parts of JFO will trip you out but it's try not to get lost and draw on experience.
I did find the backtracking a little tedious but for me it was fairly easy to remember where everything was and how to get back too it
Love the puzzle type path ways. Exploring is the best part I think. I just like looking around. The world is spot on. Looks amazing
It really helps that it's $4.79 on steam for the next few days
Very true man, it’s constantly on sale now probably to push for the sequel :D
I just started playing this game. Not really a star wars fan but am really liking this game on the ps4. Looks like a pretty nice game 🤙🏾
I was really surprised they had a performance mode for PS4 pro, that was a great decision :D
I just downloaded this game on pc, was kinda slow at the start but I liked it as it picks up later, also after getting this when I finish it I think I’ll be getting the next one as I enjoy it enough to carry on playing it
Many reviewers have compared Jedi Fallen Order to Dark Souls meets Uncharted, but I hadn't thought about it being similar to Metroid(vanias). I love your take.
I just bought it, finished it, and I had a very positive experience.
Great quick review
Have you tried inquisitor costume? Looks great!
Should I play this first before the new survivor?
I've had my eye on this for a bit. Got a PS5 for Christmas and CGR drops a should you buy about it on the day it comes to PS plus. I think the universe is telling me to play Fallen Order lol
I mean it’s essentially free so why not Mike :D
The universe demands it and now CGR does too
Let me know your thoughts if you do play it mate :)
" *_DEW IT!!!!!!_* "
I mostly play sports games, and rocket league so I was looking for something different. I am not a big star wars fan, I don't watch the new shows, I like the movies well enough but had not played a Star Wars game since literally N64. I downloaded this when it came on PS+ for free, just started playing about a month ago. I absolutely love this game, so much fun.
The puzzles do get a bit tricky sometimes for a novice gamer like me but there is lots of great walk-throughs on youtube that will show you how to solve any puzzle that is giving you fits. Overall though, the visuals, the story line, cut scenes, action adventure, fighting with lightsabers, becoming a better Jedi as you progress, this game is really really a blast to play.
So if your like me and downloaded from PS+ free monthlys, but have not fired it up yet, give it a go. You will not be disappointed.
Star wars fans dont watch new star wars either
@@SolareofAstora still haven't watched the rise of Skywalker lmao
I downloaded it via ps+ but when i wanted to leave the planet after the vault mission it kept loading for ever and ever so yeah guess i wont get further than the first hour
That’s really weird? Never seen that bug before, that sucks man
@@JacksGameReviews yeah re-downloaded it it works now
Just picked it up for $8 on Steam sale. Other than the optimization being messy, it is a fun game and looks great in 4K.
After scouring through PS Plus for a new game to play through, I decided to try it out. I played up to the Oggdo Bogdo boss fight incase anybody cares but it felt like the combat was unresponsive, with the parry mainly being my problem. I recorded some footage of me in the boss battle and from what I can tell, my main problem was the the parry wouldn’t always work and I would die within a minute or two of the boss battle at most. I’ve also played a couple hours in other various Dark Souls games over the past couple of years and the combat was obviously challenging but I could tell it was my timing rather that the game, even if I was completely crap at them. There are forums online that discuss this but most reviews I’ve seen say something opposite. I know people will mock me but is this a problem with the game or just me being inexperienced. I will probably just watch a play-through rather than playing it if the game is this ‘buggy’ throughout.
The party timing is way more strict on harder difficulties, also play with 60 fps if you have a PS4 pro or the ps5
So many times I wanted to pick this game up, and I saw that running animation, and I was like: Thank god my money is safe today. 😂
The running is atrocious lmfao
Just bought the deluxe edition on Steam for less than $10...running a special at 86% off
i would have warned you beforehand but most of the deluxe content is free after the 2020 may the 4th update, but you still get the “ making of fallen order “ clips so at least its not for nothing
I enjoyed this game but I didn’t enjoy 100% all the planet since theres so much backtracking and navigating the planets can be a pain but apart from that its a pretty good game and im looking forward to jedi survivor
Accurately summed up everything I thought about myself
The backtracking is a pain but I think the incentives off force and health upgrades along with lightsaber customisation options helped significantly with the backtracking
Since I just bought this game and THEN found thrips review I am so happy to hear and read everyone, more or less, saying it’s a good game! I do love a good open world game so I’m a bit sad to hear this game doesn’t work so well on this. That plus the fact there’s no fast travel... backtracking can get really boring!!
I would say yes if you haven’t played or seen gameplay but no if you have seen a lot of gameplay or played then save up for Jedi survivor
Playing it for the first time right now on the Series X and with the X/S enhanced version and I'm only about 35 minutes in, but I'm enjoying it so far.
I was going to get this game but do you think with the easiest difficulty it would be easy enough for a 6 year old, I got my nephew into Star Wars
Hmmm that’s a tough one, I never played on the easiest difficulty but there are plenty of checkpoints and I’m sure a kid could beat it, will take them a lot of time but nothing better for a kid than a challenge :D
@@JacksGameReviews I got it he played it once and never left the junkyard, Lego incredibles went on sale on the switch yesterday so I got that for him, that was the one game that he’s been wanting to get for a while so he’s still happy
@@w1sefalcon331 damn well at least they found their comfort game :)
As I was just think for about buying this game. Playstation just dropped it with the playstation plus. Now Im here 15 hours later seeing if it’s worth wild!
PlayStation with the best timing possible, they know what they are doing
I Just picked up a used ps4 cd of the game in a bargain bin for $15 Sony gave it the free Ps5 update also on instal .
Very fun game . A mix of dark Soul and Uncharted.
Can,t wait to tray Jedi Survivor Next .
FYI- Sony Stores wants $58 Canadian to download the game. Always buy the CD version Ps5 console , you save money on the short run .
About to play this for the first time on PS5 , btw it’s free on both consoles now if subscribed.
Yep just found that out which surprised the hell out of me
Hope you have a good time with it :D
When this game came out, I was so sour on EA's Star Wars games and the franchise as a whole under Disney's reign, I refused to pick it up. I'm glad to say I was a fucking idiot, and I wish I had played it years ago. A friend gifted it to me a week ago, and I've 100 percented the game. I do not 100% games unless I truly love them. While I think the story and characters could've definitely been stronger, the gameplay is more addictive than crack and the skill progression is incredibly satisfying. I'm really looking forward to survivor and I can't wait.
this was the review i needed to see
Honestly, I thought the writing was one of the better parts of the story. Cal is a potential top 10 candidate for Star Wars characters for me easily. Also, this is by far the best writing to come out of this era after Siege of Mandalor (haven’t finished Survivor yet).
Deluxe edition on sale for $5 on Xbox right now.
Honestly I neverrr play video games but my brother got fallen order so I decided to try it. Ik it was very buggy and could of been cleaner but I finished the whole video game historically fast. Don’t knock it till you try it because the more you play I felt the better it got.
Hoping my bro gets survivor because I miss Cal 😭
Having to backtrack to the ship made me quit after the first mission.
I like the action and what not but I absolutely hate puzzles in videogames. Definitely a good game but I'll have to give it another try.
Replaying in 2024 and it still holds up nicely its a fun really good game. Looking forward to playing jedi survivor wen I upgrade to a ps5 will be hopefully my first game
Well it's on sale on Xbox for £5 so can't go wrong with that
Picked it up yesterday for £4.50 less then a cup of Coffey so worth a go.
Epic has it on sale for $4 till 3/16/23
I just got tye game on Steam during the winter sake. I was never a Star Wars fan but heard good things about the game so decided to give it a go. I was pleasantly surprised how good it was right of the bat and I got drawn into it. The excitement lasted maybe 30 minutes and then all of the freaking puzzles started. I haaaate games with puzzles and don't care to spend half an hour in one level trying to figure out what the hell to do to progress. Deleted and won't touch it again. Same with Tomb Raider games. Puzzles are so 90s. 8f this was a pure story/ action game it would have been more enjoyable for me. But as it is this game isn't for me.
That’s very fair
Puzzles aren’t for everyone but I did enjoy that aspect myself, helped pace the game a little better for me but I totally get not enjoying those parts
if you’re stupid just say that
You would probably love Star Wars The Force Unleashed 1 & 2 then, they still have great graphics in modern times. They are like Jedi fallen order, but without the puzzles and start out as a sith (evil) who is Darth Vaders apprentice - you even get to play as Darth Vader too, and it has tons and tons of costumes(even crazy stuff like robots and movie Jedi characters and a force ghost), and tons of lightsaber crystals and colors to choose from(even multiple types of the same color, like regular red, unstable red, and compressed red which added a really cool effect). All the crystals and and costumes are very easy to find, they are a glowing box that is usually out in the open, you don't have to go swinging and climbing and all that to find the, no mazes or puzzles here. It also has a really great and very interesting story.
And If your willing to look over a lot older graphics then Star Wars Knights of the old Republic 1 & 2 are amazing and even better in so many ways. Especially if you *_LOVE_* good story with multiple endings where you can create any character you want, good or evil or in-between. Then you should check out Star Wars the Knight's of the Old Republic 1 & 2. These games set the standard for basically every RPG game that came after it. They even have the games on Nintendo switch and the 1st game on mobile(although PC is the best option for graphic mods and the restored content mod). These 2 games have endless amounts of content and replayibility. So many different characters and paths you can take. Which is why these games are still played today.
I'd recommend playing Star Wars the Force Unleashed 1 & 2 first though. You will not regret it at all.
The force unleashed also has a very awesome force system, so so many force abilities to choose from, and they are extremely powerful too. That is probably the only thing people complain about these games, it is just "too easy" your character and his force abilities are quite overpowered especially in the ending of the game, unless you raise the game difficulty then it actually gets really really hard until you figure out the best force abilities and max those out and unlock them. But it takes a strategy to be overpowered on the maximum difficulty.
The overpowered character makes sense though, since your character is a evil sith lord who was trained by Darth Vader himself since he was a little child, so it makes sense he is so powerful, and the straight forward movie like story makes it so fun even if it is easy at times, it also just feels awesome to be a super powerful sith lord picking up storm troopers and rebels then throwing them around wherever you want and choking them out and shocking them with lighting. Or picking up a soldier and throwing your lightsaber at them while you hold them in the air. The force system in these games are awesome, you basically can pick up everything and have total freedom with it. Which makes it fun and replayable.
If you’ve got PlayStation plus…you don’t need to!! Haha
It’s also on Game Pass
Very very true completely forgot it was getting added to ps plus and gamepass.
Man what a deal
@@JacksGameReviews I know right? ha…
@@JacksGameReviews yeah you just happened to upload this video today the day its added to ps plus
Epic store made it free also it’s the best because it is truly free on epic when they offer it no need to keep paying a subscription fee to play it
I couldn't make it past after the first 2 planets its just way too many puzzles
A truly great game that every gamer should play 👌
Thanks!
Thank you Guitarplayer
it’s free on playstation plus this month
Every time I go to buy a game on steam it's always 4.99. At that price why not! It's not that bad, I haven't played to many star wars games since ps1 and ps2 days. I did play the force unlashed 2 and thought that was amazing. I was thinking this was going to be like that but man there is a lot of jumping in this game and wall running. Other than that it's a pretty good game.
I might play this game on my ps5 I beat it for the PS4, but I would love to play it again on my PS5
Started this game as soon as I finished God of War Ragnarok. I know that they are different game, but the Jedi fight mechanisms and gameplay structure overall feel awful in comparison with God of War. I really loved the graphics and environments but unfortunately I left the game after 10 hours of gameplay, it felt too slow and repetitive.
I just got it for $4 on Steam, looking forward to playing it after Sekiro.
I think your enjoyment of it may be relative. Gaming (AAA) is the worst it's ever been so mediocre games seem pretty good right now
For non Nintendo games, I guess.
However, this is far from a mediocre game but not perfect with 100% completion being the biggest offender because of no fast travel!!!! On the flip side, this is by far the best Star Wars Disney era story after the Siege of Mandalor arc (from what I’ve seen. I’ve yet to finish Survivor).
Bought the game after paying $5.
Probably the best $5 I’ve spent for a game. :)
What a deal Nim :D
Its $8 rn blackfriday, ima def buy it
Just got it for 7.5€ (around 8$), from the Playstation store christmas sale, and honestly 7.5€ for this game is worth every penny.
It's actually $5.99 on the US store
It was OK. Somethings I liked but others I didn't. They need too step it up on next one
The unlockables are not interesting enough. They should include more outfit
Agreed. The lightsaber customisation was good but my god the ponchos are complete ass
I just bought the deluxe edition for my Series X for just 5 pounds on the Xbox store because i am a game pass member.
Steam sale currently 4 euros... :D
8 bucks on eBay right before it became free. Yup that's my luck. Great game though so I don't mind
I think I'm just gonna get the survivor 😅
picked it up yesterday on steam for 7cad$ !!!!
picked up 5 minutes ago for 7.50
There are seven planets in Fallen Order, and five can be revisited and explored.
short answer: yes
longer answer : hell yeah!! absolutely worth it!
LETS GO forest
How’s UA-cam going for ya mate?
@@JacksGameReviews Not bad. I've delayed the award show multiple times, because of corrupting and rendering issues, but i finally got it all sorted out so i think i can get it out ny saturdya. glad you are doing well too, all luck for 2023!!
It’s free on ps essentials
It’s free on Xbox game pass too
I’m ok with paying 10 dollars a month to play this and a plethora of other games too
After (finally) playing this. I genuinely think it’s not worth playing it at all regardless of the year ☹️ Hopefully you will do a video on Hogwarts Legacy next month though 🤔
Hogwarts legacy is on the cards, trying to get my ass a review copy 💀
Fallen order is definitely no red dead redemption 2
You just hate Star Wars 💀
@@JacksGameReviews I started playing it yesterday after it was released for free on PS plus, I really enjoyed the Force Awakens game and thought it would be more similar to that but this is definitely an action puzzle as someone mentioned before. This isn't for everyone but I'm enjoying it more as I gain more abilities
Got it free to play with ps premium
Hate the creatures and i hate the map design when trying to get back to dumb ass ship, can't wait for fast travel.
Overall though, it's a beautiful game and i enjoyed it.
£4.19 on steam today!
the only part of the game i dont like is the map.
Just got it on premium, at no cost.. I know nothing about star wars, holy hell it's fun. It feels like a true PS5 experience. Looks and feels incredible so far.
Can’t wait to see what they do with jedi survivor now it’s a proper next gen exclusive
Really hoping to get blown away
I started calling BD-1 as BD-Wan Kenobi lol 😆
Bought it, installed it.
(STEAM)
Game wont even start. Nice
Ps plus going to give it for free for month of January so answer is yes! People should "buy" it lol
PlayStation doing gods work
Anyone played this on pc?
playstation plus 160 a year to play a game i bought for as little as 4 dollars and you can keep you're playstation plus.
The character model itself ruined it for me, playing as Ian Gallagher was kind of stupid
I hate the ponchos as well
Thought the story was pretty good compare to Disney Star Wars it a masterpiece.
That "want to collect colors" farming in most games today is what's ruining the genre
I want to be a mandalorian!
i just did for only 10 dollars
Nice just bought survivor for 45 I bought fallen order in 2019 and ong so amazing to feel that star wars feeling again I specifically remember playing it in a hotel room with all my lil cuzzins watching sucks cuz my account got banned my fault lol and luckily I did the account game share console thing so even know I can't sighn in I still have all my games sucks tho cuz my profile falls with the console wich is the xbox one x luckily so ain't that bad got the series x and had to make a new account and buy all the games wich is why I'm thinking of getting fallen order to it's a pretty good gane but I hears the combat is really good in survivor I only want the 60 fps wich I think it does om the one x I remember it running smooth asf
Love this game!
The story seems amazing but I seriously don’t like melee combat games in general. Had to stop after the first planet because I felt like I was forcing myself through a genre I hate for a story I like
If you didn't get this game. You're missing out.
It's a game with glow sticks for kids. You get no meaningful character progression, we learn nothing about lightsabers except that their appearance can be customized for aesthetic reasons because the Jedi are big fans of vanity... apparently. And the force only replenishes if you hurt people with your lightsaber...?! Yet we're not playing as a Sith, nor do we have the option or threat of turning to the dark side. How do you mess this up so badly?! Even I could write a better game at this point. Maybe Knights of the Old Republic spoiled me beyond measure.
No. The game has a few positive points such as combat, force powers and lightsaber customization but beyond that it leaves a lot to be desired. The main character is a complete dud and the crew you're around most of the game provides nothing but whiny and cringe dialogue. You spend more time trying to figure out the navigation of the ass backward overly complicated level designs than you do actually enjoying the game. The storyline is extremely weak with more focus on having woke "strong" female villains who are an absolute joke and not the least bit menacing at any point. Fallen Order like all Star Wars games by EA looks beautiful but lacks any kind of depth or variety. Anyone in this comment section could have created a more compelling narrative and characters. Kyle is weak little beta who is the most unbelievable force wielder you could ever imagine. Probably the worst protagonist of any Star Wars title, game or otherwise.
The story of the game is about the character development of the main characters by confronting their past and changing their perspective on things, such as greez’s attitude towards friends and shows him slowly changing and caring about the main characters. As for level navigation i can partially agree on the fact that it is pretty difficult to get the hang of and would probably be better with a fast travel design, but we only have two forms of complex level design which are both the poorly built Zeffo temples, but i struggle to see why you make it seem like the levels are so difficult to navigate through that it takes away the enjoyment of the game. As for your sexist statement about the female antagonists, the game is not centered around the female protagonists, but use an ex-padawan to build a feeling of sincerity about her and leads to her brief ‘ team change’ before dieing at the end. The only other female antagonist is the ninth sister, who is barely mentioned after the beginning until Kashykk, where you defeat her to show the player how far you’ve come after being dropped 70ft into a moving train by her. I believe that there are actually more male antagonists than girls, which are as follows: The Haxion Brood’s leader, Taron Malicos, and Darth Vader. Again, the story of the game provides a compelling narrative and CAL (not Kyle) is most definitely not the “ Worst protagonist of any Star Wars title, game, or otherwise” due to his character development of confronting his past, especially during the order 66 scene.
one, two, free
Effy
That’s poetry right there
Yes Yes Yes!!!!
