Non-RPG General News - Star Wars Outlaws Gameplay
- Thread starter HiddenX
- Start date
I watched this and the game seems like it will probably be fun.
Gameplay in these plethora of open-world-ish action/adventure/rpg-ish games (AC Odyssey, Hogwart's Legacy, both Horizon games, Tsushima, etc.) is usually at least pretty good, and for me that means story and overall writing take a game like this from pretty good to very good or great (or boring). I'm a big fan of these types of games, though I did skip the recent Pandora game based upon reviews.

The "combat" looks too lackluster, although I like the premise. The release date doesn't work for me regardless, so if I check it out, it will be at a later date.
Seems like it does a decent job of capturing the SW atmosphere. I'd like to see more footage of the space flight system and combat.

Aside from few details it looks good.
The "grenade moment" was quite cheap imho and she is unscathed - they should do better job here to make it look like she run off some distance.
When the firefight starts and everybody is alarmed it doesnt look good if there is a guard just standing in the open doing nothing. It seems that we will see many areas like that "hangar with enemies" and even more "stupid guards that will be easy to get rid off" - due to the nature of Ubi content. But I dont suggest that its bad. It could be pretty good game and the best from Ubi for quite some time.

Yes, by "Pandora" I meant the recent Avatar Frontiers of Pandora game, sorry for the confusion. It looks to have a lot of the fun elements of the other games I mentioned but reviews make it seem repetitive and with a story which is not particularly interesting.

Found another preview about how you gain levels, and it's not EXP.

How Star Wars Outlaws skips RPG conventions like levels and XP to "reward player curiosity" and turn every skill we learn into "a little adventure in itself"
