Star Wars Battlefront Review | Game Over

GO:
For a guy who was a teenager in the 80’s, who saw Star Wars in its prime before the re-edited versions and the mess of the second trilogy, Star Wars is in my blood. Oh, I’m not planning to convert to Jedi anytime soon, and if pressed I’ll confess that I like Star Trek more than Star Wars, but from the very first bars of John Williams’ music and the Lucasfilm logo, Battlefront had my adrenaline pumping. A multiplayer FPS with blaster fire! Fly X-wings, ride speeder bikes, drive AT-STs! The opportunity to play as Han Solo or Darth Vader! That excitement however was quite short lived. Beyond serving as tutorials, the single player experience is almost non-existent. The multiplayer, boasting a number of variants but not a lot of maps, is for the most part a Star Wars veneer, a very thin veneer, over extremely ordinary gameplay.

And certainly not worth the obscene $100+ pricetag.

Game that isn't worth of money, but is worth of one hour...just to be sure that is not worth of playing:) Kidding. If someone is a casual player and like SW Universe it will feels like heaven. If someone is more than casual player, well, it will feel jus strange playing this game. It will feel better, when it will play Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 soon, in 2016. Really mature game with realistic feeling. It worth to check this out...when it comes out:)

Hope more developers do this.

I thought that was kind of obvious they were incorporating mods to piece this game together. Maybe not, but that's made me worried about one thing:

They also planned on adding the modded ending to KOTOR 2 but were legally blocked from doing so, even after they advertised that to help sell preorders for the game on Switch. Could the same happen with this? Any opponents have 3 weeks to bring down the hammer.

Wish these games would just get remakes.
