Do NOT BUY Star Wars OUTLAWS! Please Save your $$$!

WARNING: This video is back up so people can see it. This video DOES NOT reflect my current take on STAR WARS OUTLAWS- altho in part it does. It's confusing. A video going up tonite will make it clear and a new, final 'Star Wars Outlaws Review/Impressions/Whatever' is going up tomorrow. Thanks for understanding- JAFFE!

+++++

NOTE: I played for 3.5 hours. That was enough for me to make this call. Your millage may vary. Played it on PC- ran fine.

*For now, DO NOT sign up for the GOD OF WAR tier membership as it will be changing very soon. You can always upgrade if you dig the new perks for that tier but for now, any tier will get you access to Warstories!

PATREON VS. YOUTUBE: OH, and YOUTUBE is best if you dig the videos and are there for the live chats and want the emojis and anniversary posts,etc. But they are not good for podcasts. If you dig podcasts, I suggest the Patreon as it's a MUCH better experience for listening.

I was so close to pre-ordering. So glad i did my research.

[MrSouthSioux]

Ubisoft titles are strictly Gold/Goty edition purchases at a deeper than atlantis discount.

[TheRealIronMan]

As a massive Star Wars fan, not gonna lie, I would have gave this game a chance if it was released a few weeks earlier, now I just cant help myself but to compare the graphics between Outlaws and Wukong, like from texture quality to SFX to character design, the gap is just insane, I swear even older Ubisoft games were better than this. Now im just gonna wait for Veilguard while playing Wukong, I have fond memory of playing Inquisition years ago and hopefully Bioware will deliver.

If you got ubisoft + and don't like Star Wars Outlaws, please play Prince of Persia The Lost Crown

[RagingUtai]

To think we could have had beyond good and evil 2 by now..

[Dr.SamLoomis]

I have Ubisoft+ so I gave it a whirl. The opening was insanely boring to me and the NPC's look rough. Especially the lip syncing.

[markm]

I'm so sick of this type of game. Checkboxes, tailing, bad stealth, walk and talk, endless side 'content'. I can put up with it if the game is great in other ways, but man do I miss games without bloat. I'd probably play this if it was like a 15-20 hour action game that was linear with a few hubs along the way.

[soiltek]

I had to come back to watch this after I saw your most recent video endorsing the game. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

[ApexLodestar]

It's crazy they're charging $109.99 for the deluxe edition. It's just the base game, season pass and 3 days of early access. Overpriced. Might try it on Ubisoft+ though.

[Wayne-B]

Going to play more monkey, also I remember a journalist or some kind of fart smelling blogger saying outlaws was as good as red dead redemption 2

[admiralalyssa]

It's 2 a.m., perfect time for some Jaffe!

[Shadowwolf-gdcy]

Thank you for the heads up Jaffe. I appreciate it!

[Mikewarrior-]

This I agree with... This game is pathetic. Remember how the OLD Ubisoft made Splinter Cell and how good it's stealth gameplay was? Sad how far Ubisoft has fallen

[HelveticaBold]

Man, I expected a lot more from Massive since I loved the Division.
Depressing.

[HeyMyNameIs...]

Ubisoft is known for giving us the standard checklisty open world game with one big new feature to spice things up. Knowing Outlaws has that same checklist with nothing new and a regression of existing mechanics... . This is not worth 70 bucks or even 130.

[ZombieRommel]

A lot of open world Ubisoft titles have this issue. The core mechanics feel kinda floaty and loose. Hard to describe but you'll know it when you feel it. I think it's an issue with whatever engines they tend to use. It seems like they try to use one engine for multiple genres. For example, the lead dev on XDefiant (which is a competitive shooter) has said a lot of the netcode issues stem from them using an engine that was built for an MMO. Game feel is huge... shooting things, punching things, jumping and running around, driving. And somehow a lot of modern devs completely miss the boat on this when older games nailed it.

[TheOptimus]

It feels like the bigger a company and its games grow, the more those games risk becoming a business or a product, rather than an art form. I agree, it's nice seeing younger generations falling in love with Star Wars and yet a bit of a shame that this is the Star Wars game they're going to remember growing up with. I get this similar feeling with remakes too. For example, I grew up with the original Dead Space, and I'm kinda sad the modern audience is more likely to play and remember the remake instead of the original, because I think the remake doesn't do the original justice, despite the graphical upgrade.

[UToobUsername]

I'm probably going to buy Avowed. This one will be in bargain bins by the truckload. Also need to save up for Kingdom Come Deliverance 2. And yeah the Zelda game.

[hanes]

to be real, when a game like ghost of tsushima exists, what's the reason to get AC shadows.

[Gyuribacsik]

Ubisoft+, is not avaible your country?
