Star Wars Outlaws director agrees the early instant-fail stealth missions are "incredibly punishing," and Ubisoft is easing the pain with a patch coming "maybe in 10 days" (www.gamesradar.com)

Is it worth it to buy new? I'm a huge Star Wars fan but the reviews made it sound very lackluster, like an Ubisoft open world game that was slightly stripped down and a SW skin slapped on it.

I dont understand the "Ubisoft Game" comments, it is nothing like AC or Farcry. Is it super complex? No. Is it a large and beautifully detailed world? Absolutely. The story is stellar, loving it so far and still not done. The worlds and environments are fantastic. Would I buy it at the moment? Only if you are a big Star Wars fan, otherwise its entirely single player, you're not missing out if you wait for a sale in a little while

Are there towers to climb to reveal the map?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Not a single one, map points are discovered and marked as you approach them, otherwise they are question marks on your compass and nothing else, the map itself is empty until you fill it in

Okay, just as long as you don't have to play a climbing mini game every time you want to expand the map.

Thank you. First real person take I've read, appreciated.
