    I've finished all nine movies and moved on to post-game, and this game has been fantastic for every minute. The gameplay is changed enough compared to past Lego games while still feeling familiar, the lightsaber combat is fantastic, the open worlds are great, this is a collectathon to end all collectathons with more unique Kyber Bricks in the open worlds than there are unique moons in all of MARIO ODYSSEY (1166 Kyber Bricks total, remove 270 via 6 in each of the 45 individual levels and you have 896 unique open world bricks vs 880 unique moons in Mario Odyssey), you can buy the freaking Death Star, all of it is a Star Wars fan's dream, and a Lego game fan's dream as well. I don't know if it's my personal favorite Lego game, that could easily go to one of the older ones like Complete Saga or Lord of the Rings, but this is certainly one of my favorites, and definitely one of the best ones I've played. I should note, I was locked out of progression in my initial file, I was going to do the level 'The Hunt for Jango' in Episode 2 (I started with the prequels), and I had what I can only assume was a loading glitch, and it kept me on the previous questline with no way to progress to the next quest, which locked me out of completing the rest of the prequels. I don't know how common this is, I don't know if they fixed this in a patch somewhere, but it's something to note. Even then, that didn't ruin my enjoyment for the game because it was so early into my playthrough, I only beat Episode 1 at that point so I just rushed through that in a new file and continued the saga like nothing happened, and it helps that this game is just fun to play. If it happened after I got through the prequels though, that might've killed my want to replay it with needing to recomplete so much of the game. Still, great game. Very solid 9/10, just a few technical issues and lackluster performance on Switch compared to other consoles, although it's still solid performance on Switch.

      At least you're honest. And in fairness, while disappointing, it's not the worst I've experienced on Switch. Usually, a single repeat is all I need to make the level perform as it should.
      Lego City Undercover has a bug that can completely corrupt your save. WWE2K18 is nearly unplayable if you don't choose a one on one mode with the smallest possible audience.
      Plus, they're still updating the game. They fixed the Maz glitch that was ruining a lot of people's progress in episode 7, and that was probably the most requested item.

    There are three properties I could imagine working great as Lego games:
    The Northern Lights, aka the Golden Compass: since all the characters have daemon spirit animals you can have unique abilites for each animal. Plus the first book/film/series have a ton of locations you could traverse: Jordan college, Gypian boats, Bolvanger, Svalbard and more.
    A series of Unfortunate Events: If made today, it'd likely be based off the tv series, but either way each Baudelaire child could use their character traits: inventing, reading/research and biting to aid them in a number of things: chores for Olaf, stopping a fake wedding. Then if doing the Netflix version, have whole side missions alongside VFD.
    The Chronicles of Narnia: I think the series has a good charm that would adapt well to Lego. You could have the hub world be the Professor's country mansion, then enter the different stories through the Wardrobe. Even if you just have the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe's plotline there's plenty to cover, from exploring the snowy forest, Mr Tummnus' house, Aslan's camp, the White Witch's castle, then all culminating in the epic fight at the end. If Lego can do Lord of the Rings, I'd love them to cover Narnia.

    Alex, I appreciate your comments at the end. Well, I always do, but even more so for this one because I feel the same way. I own many Lego video games, but haven't finished any of them. It's fun at first, and unlocking new characters is fun, but I think there's something about the level design that always bothers me. The levels are very repetitive and, somehow, both too linear and too open, as well as being too long. The Lego games are fun to play for about 30 minutes but after that, I feel like I'm doing chores.

    It certainly looks better on the series S, but I was expecting frame drops and downgraded textures.. which simply didn’t occur. This is more smooth than breath of the wild, and in switch form you can take it with you. Some games are just better handheld and SWS on switch is a perfect example. This game is stupid easy on all consoles. If you’re a decent gamer, you’ll have to put effort into trying to die. None of the challenges will ever make you sweat, and being heavily disadvantaged isn’t enough to make you fear dying. Honestly think this game is too easy.

    Seriously? Your reaction to this was "Oh great more Star Wars" my reaction was "Finally, more good Star Wars" sure the sequels pull this game down a little but after all the crap that Disney has made, and EA only making 3 Star Wars video games since Disney gave them the rights to the IP, with this game being the first non EA Star Wars game, I'm just at least happy it is what it is

    I’m in the middle of playing this really quite incredible game and enjoying it for the most part, but the flaws are so painfully obvious that I tend to get a little frustrated. The “it’s just not there” and “that object doesn’t move the way it’s supposed to” glitches that make me have to restart the game are infinitely annoying. It just seems to have weird little ticks that make it somewhat of a hurdle to overcome to enjoy. Regardless, I haven’t stopped playing it since day 1, and am very excited to run back through and 100% this monster.

      Yeah it is. The cantina and Dexter’s diner are both in the game and explorable though
      There are instances where characters roam around the world
      For example sometimes you need to do a mission to unlock a character (let’s just say a stormtrooper as an example)
      You have to talk to said stormtrooper to do the mission. Once it’s done you unlock the stormtrooper but the character stays there after unlocking it

      In my opinion I would give it an 8/10
      It is a good lego game but the reason why I give it 8
      1.) Same as all the other lego games (nothing really hugely new in my opinion)
      2.) As of now has some bugs and even some where you can get softlocked (luckily I never had any softlocked bugs but I have run into some other ones)
      3.) Most of the levels are really short and some major scenes in the movies feel rushed or are just a quick cutscene rather than level/focused more on in the story
      It is still good though as it improved on the previous lego games and the open world is better as there are more places to explore and more puzzles to solve

  • @alecbormia4523

    Def picking this one up if that’s good. I was unsure about whether it’s worth it bc I love the original I have on the Wii and I don’t like the sequels enough (or at all really) to buy a new game solely for those movies but it sounds like they changed enough to make it worth it. Also it makes me very happy they have a mumble mood for cutscenes as that just gives me so much nolstagia for the original in its stupid goofiness.

    • @landlighterfirestar5550
      @landlighterfirestar5550 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      It’s absolutely worth it. Every single planet you can remember from the saga is explorable in some capacity, and the space combat is genuinely phenomenal.
      The other thing is that from what I hear, mumble mode is not that good. It just turns the dialog into gibberish but doesn’t give you the visual gags to compensate for the lack of speech. This is probably in the top 3 most disappointing things in the game, though, which is really saying something

I’m not a fan of those movies but that doesn’t mean those levels can’t be well designed, and Lego games always tell stories differently and poke fun at the source material so they might actually make decently funny versions of the movies through this so the movies weren’t entirely a loss, but still you can just ignore the levels from the sequel trilogy, they aren’t essential to unlock the first 6 movies.
