Hello everyone. Hope everyone has had a good week. I've had a busy week (3 job interviews) but still found time to play a lot of Binding of Isaac since a muscle injury has kept me out of the gym. Hope everyone has a good upcoming week.

Which Lego Star Wars?

All of them? One for each main series movie. It calls itself "Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga"

Ahhh the new one

yeah it's huge but to be honest it doesn't have as much of the 'lego games' identity about it as previous titles

obviously I have a lot of nostalgia but for me Lego games peaked when they still had unvoiced characters - or at least they were voiced but only spoke in gesticulations and hmms and ahhs

also the new one doesn't have character creation which is bollocks

I suppose it's not really surprising that Disney Lego Games are more commercial - that era of Star Wars games in particular when video games were still a bit of a wild west were amazing. LucasFilm licensed Star Wars out to anyone that had a fun idea, and let them go nuts. Some of it was totally shit but it was all smaller studios, it was fresh and attempting to innovate.

Like I said, I haven't played a Lego game since 1997, so those things flew right over my head. I have no expectations of a current century Lego game, I am in full blob-no-thoughts mode over here.
