Star Wars action at its finest, crushing the Jedi order under my heels was most satisfactory. A pity I couldn't kill Vader and steal his helmet, though. Removed 1 star for technical instability.

Just finished my first playthrough (Nov. 2017) - so nostalgia couldn't cloud my judgement. Knowing the developer Bioware from the Mass Effect trilogy, I took on the challenge and to tame that beast of an aging game. Never been a retro gamer myself - aside from replaying some Playstation 1/2 classics - but this game spoiled every contemporary AAA release to me. This game features the very best plot twist in video gaming history, and never before have I been immersed into a fictional setting where you can decide every single move you make. No matter your mentality or personal preferences, ethical stances etc., you will get to choose according options in the game and possibly affect relationships to other character or even alter the outcome of (sub-)plots. 50000000000000/10, would give 2857689473568234 stars were it only allowed
Buy this instead of those AAA games plagued with expensive-as-sh** DLCs and micro-transactions. Get "games as a service" back to the ash heap of gaming history!
Early Access died when developers were able to sell us half-assed software as AAA titles. Now, the same applies to pre-orders.
Stop fooling us, you make a AAA game and call it a DLC!!!
I'd call this a very well-made military drama, mainly a shooter. The engine is so powerful, gameplay is smooth even after almost 10 years. A must-have!
Awesome dogfighting controls, similar to the astonishing Star Citizen, though more adapted to arcade and thus more intuitive and predictable. The strafe along the y-axis is very well-positioned onto the WS keys. Dogfighting is fun, combat is harsh but rewarding though the AI's dogfighting capabilities are in need of some enhancement through the final release. Looking forward to see more!
Caution: You may not play online until you link your GOG account to wargaming.net I'd be fine with having to install Galaxy (I use it all time anyway) in order to play the multiplayer, however. Furthermore, accepting EULA will defuse GOG's appreciated customer protection at numerous points.
Seldom have I played a masterpiece like this! The combat systrem has impressed me very much as well as the very well-applied narrative techniques and the credible, living world. We need more developers & more games like this ones!
