Solid game so far content wise. No bugs yet, just a slowdown during a fight in quality mode which, since it's dropping from 30 fps it was extremely noticeable.

Why is the userscore 4.4? Just cause of performance at launch?

Just got the last stance, not too impressed since I dont like the Disney sequels or anything to do with them.

Leading GOTY candidate for me - a gem. Unfortunate that it will not be regarded as such by many due to unforced errors by EA's management, both on the physical disc drama and on the polish and bug/performance side (which were rather minor nuisances on PS5 at the very least). For me the game crashed 3 times, and had frame hiccups about 5 times total, around water when engaged in combat. Had to switch from Quality to Performance on the fight that shall not be named cause I was getting my ass kicked and sure enough the higher fps made the fight a relative breeze compared to the previous attempts.

Best single-player Star Wars game and story since, well, ever. Definitely recommend to anyone for keep on PS5. Can't say for other platforms which is reported to be running significantly worse. Vacuum score on PS5 - a solid 9.5.

Plat clean up should take me about a couple more days at most.

Edit: Lmao...
