This is actually a phenomenon known as "Cute Aggression". You see, cute things remind us of babies, which our brains have conditioned us to want to take care of, usually in physical expressions such as holding and comforting. However when we are somehow prevented from being able to physically interact with the object of cuteness, our brains essentially misinterpret this as if something is preventing us from being near the baby, which we've evolved to interpret as if the baby is being taken or threatened in some way. Thus as an unconscious side-effect of our hormones pumping, our aggression receptors actually also get pumped up and we subconsciously want to take it out on something, which may often end up being the cute thing itself because all of the hormones just get mixed together and confused. Because we now have a lot of ways wherein we can see something cute, but cannot physically interact with it, we often experience Cute Aggression on occasion.
Yep, I loved this game and would really recommend it to any Star Wars fan. But yeah all the criticisms of it being uninventive are pretty accurate. It takes all these aspects from other games and does them all just good enough that they work but not good enough that it stands out on it's own.
I was about to call her out for saying "best Star Wars game in a decade" because Force Unleashed but then I looked it up and holy shit that game is 11 years old
@@mikesannitti6042 but is it doe? Unleashed is a platformer with poor man's God of War (GoW 1-3) combat system, Fallen Order is a platformer with poor man's Sekiro combat system. They are both on "meh" level. Thanks to a strong Star Wars brand this 2 games are not forgotten. But tbh I enjoyed both of them.
Mike Sannitti combat is not deeper for sure. Fallen order is just slower and more precise, while unleashed is fast paced with o lot more combos and force abilities. One system is about surviving the opponent and another is about killing hordes of enemies in style. Ps: honestly I can’t say unleashed had any exploration at all, but games are like 10 years apart. It wasn’t a thing back then.
Oh you missed there something my buddy. It was fun to swing 30 minutes straight on a rope because he didn't wanted to catch on the next rope I think you should play it again maybe you have luck and you can swim through the floor too :D
you're getting absolutely no bugs at all? that's hard to believe. this is one of the buggiest games i've played in awhile. granted unity wasn't buggy for me so i guess its possible.
It's hard to believe you ran into zero bugs... Even the most polished games have plenty of bugs on release. I played on PC and I ran into a lot bugs in this game and it crashed multiple times too. I think every time I booted up Fallen Order I ran into at least a bug or two or the game would crash at some point and I would have to reboot it. She's right though a lot of people are applauding this game cuz it's the best Star Wars game in awhile but at it's core it's a buggy mix of Uncharted and Sekiro gameplay.
I only get the frustrating glitches like not being able to finish a mission or having to reset because Hammerhead and Mr. Negative literally cannot die in Spider-Man, whereas my brother gets the fun ones like getting stuck inside buildings or swinging forever in the same game... How come no review mentioned those bugs holy crap. Makes you knock the score down a few pegs.
This is the most bug filled game I've played in years, I still like the game though! Completed it the first week, started it again on Grand master a couple of days ago and there's still a crazy amount of bugs
I love this game but she’s not wrong. I was literally playing Shadows of the Tomb Raider before buying this game and felt like I was Lara with a lightsaber
@@emPtysp4ce It's the same tiresome automated platforming we've been getting for the last decade, just move forward and press A . Platforming, like in the first Tomb Raider games was not so automated and game play wasn't so injected with cinematic cut scenes, that kept you in the game. We have been getting the same cookie cutter games with all these big AAA releases and it's getting old, I'll just stick with older titles, vote with my wallet.
I played this on PC and honestly the bugs and performance issues were not apparent. Once or twice I had a buggy landing animation, but other than that mostly smooth. As for the A.I, again I didn’t have many issues, some storm troopers would act a fool, but nothing truly immersion breaking. The cosmetic fluff is a bit much I will give you that. I’d have preferred more tech or life upgrades spread out throughout the game to balance out the boxes. Overall 8.5 out of 10. Stig Asmussen and Respawn did great for the time they were given to make this game from the ground up. I think the next one will be even better.
I'm the middle of playing it (with an underpowered PC mind you) and haven't really had any major bugs, the most notable is that some enemies are stuck in one place when they don't see me and a handful of wonky landing animations but only that, heck even graphical and texture bugs are almost non existent with my RX 570 4GB playing at high and epic
Shelby's opinion on fallen order seems a lot like my opinion of dresses with pockets lol. All my lady friends gushed over them, and i was like "youre telling me it took them this long? No. Dont applaud that" lol
The script and delivery is excellent, helped further by 1st class editing. I haven't laughed so many times in a 10 minute video for a long time. Please don't stop.
not only Dark souls, Vaatividiya is Lore master of all Fromsoftware games, and we praise him like we praise the sun to enlighten us Tarnished Ashen ones
Shit like that is why I kinda hate Star Wars as a franchise. No one would care for the prequels if they weren’t Star Wars and I get the feeling the same is true for Episodes 8-9.
@Dan Fallen Order is still better than dark souls 2 (but not better than the rest of soulsborne games), and Fallen Order at least is a ok game, even though it is a lump of games with a splash of Star Wars, even though it is but a mere ant compared to KOTOR 1 and 2. Plus, Fallen Order proved to EA(Evil Assholes) that we want god damn single player shit, and on top of that Fallen Order wasn’t done for the money to a extent, since EA and Disney both kept trying to halt the project, but Respawn still was able to release a fun game, even if it isn’t anything to write home about. So I hope you enjoy gripping over the best Star Wars game in a while, since the good ones all got cancelled, and we have to wait a while for the next ones.
@Meh , yes the prequels aren’t that good, but Revenge of the Sith was ok, and duel of the fates was badass, and the clone wars show came from it, making Obi Wan and Anakin’s relationship have more of a meaning, and also, you are way off of 8 and 9. 8 and 9 are far more vile, and just downright unlikeable, the characters are bad, and unlikeable, the plot is shit, the idea of Palpatine even being alive is bad, making Vader’s death meaningless, and rippingI can go on and on about how much worse they are than the prequels, and how glorified you make them look.
@@jarrarwinks8470 I haven’t watched 8 and 9 yet, I’m about to watch them (just re-watched 7). I’ve been seeing so many references to them lately that I figured I needed to watch them.
From someone who only recently got into video games again and missed all of the games Fallen Order apparently borrowed from, this game blew my mind. I’ve played it three times now. I love the story, and the exploration was a lot of fun. And maybe there’s been a lot of patches since the review, but I didn’t really notice glitches like these. Either way, this was a fantastic, honest review! Subscribed!
It's definitely been fixed since GFReviews played it. I went back to it a couple of weeks ago and I think I only encountered one or two small glitches. Normally, patching a game isn't something to applaud, but this is EA so it's a big deal when they actually spend time and money to go back to fix something lol. I CAN NOT WAIT until the sequel comes out in March (until the inevitable delay announcement comes and it gets pushed back to June). As long as the story is good and they've improved the areas where Fallen Order was lacking (force powers, customizations, PONCHO'S, etc...) it's got huge potential.
Same, and I actually play all the games this one is borrowing from. I loved it. Played it last year and there was only one area that glitched on me. I went up an elevator. Could hear sound effects of a battle going on but it was completely empty. I ran around confused in this empty place that apparently had a war going on and slowly storm troopers loaded in. "Oh?" I said. Then wookies. "Whaaaatttt...". Then a freaking AT-AT. The game had put me up there before anything else was properly loaded in. It was a wonderfully, confusing, out of body experience.
This was one of the worst reviews I have ever seen. So clearly biased and just plain stupid. Every games takes from others and also no one would play the Arkham games if they weren’t Batman but she didn’t have any problems with them.
@ First of all, since you're new here, I'll let you know that this is a comedy channel. It's all for fun, not for serious critique. Also, they do-often-offer great insight and genuine critique during the lolz. Second: This is about a video game. And video games are fun, not serious. Third: That's just, like, your opinion, man. Try stating opinions as opinions. People might actually pay attention to what you're saying. Boisterously spouting insults like this is a good way for people to not care what you say or think. I loved the game, AND I loved their review of it, even if they didn't love it as much as I did!
Watching reviews of the falle order I feel like Battlefront 2 now is in a better state than fallen order. Battlefront 2 is very very enjoyable with friends, especially if you're a star wars fan
@@assnassassins7395 That's not the point. The point is that her "character" shouldn't know that. The videos are of a girl who spectates her boyfriend playing games and comments on it in funny ways while knowing nothing about games. We know her Boyfriend actually makes these videos but that's not a part of the fiction. In order to be consistent, the video should have had her be giddy at everything because it all looks so good rather than calling it out because her character doesn't know it
@tincho it wouldn't be a bad thing if they improved upon those formulae in any way... I'd rather go play any of the games that this game borrows from rather than this game.
@@kyleweir689 Improving upon a formula would mean that you'd bother centering the game around these mechanics in the first place. The only real mechanic it really needs to improve upon is the exploration and the combat. The Metroidvania traversal doesn't need anymore shit tacked on.
Ok I’m gonna be honest, when I bought this game, I didn’t have one issue, no glitches, and I enjoyed it. This game reminded me so much of the original Star Wars films and it was original. Sorry if you didn’t have that same experience
I had a blast with the game and ran into virtually none of the issues they experienced. I got stuck against a wall in an infinite fall once and that sucked, but that's the only time something like it happened. The game doesn't do anything "new" but to me that's like dismissing every FPS in the last 15ish years for not doing anything new. This game combines a lot of concepts I enjoy into a single game with a story I found compelling. Hopefully you have a similar experience. Cheers
@@MindlessZ I experienced a glitch with a no bounty hunter play through. But I didn't know that was a glitch til now. Other than that it was pretty flawless lol
Contra is a word, contrast is a word, con is guess what? A word. Most people will say con or contrast, not look up an arbitrary pronunciation or altogether different word to sound smarter.

My comment was actually more for the state of Star Wars in general. I feel this video perfectly encapsulates the quality spiral the series has traveled down (for years now). But that's a larger deeper reflection. I come here to enjoy the ever awesome humor. :)
This is late, but I feel the response “I’m sorry I couldn’t give it to you sooner” is sorely slept on. It’s an excellent comeback, and personally fits based on my own feelings on the game. I loved the game honestly.
I've been sitting here, watching your videos for the past hour instead of studying. Just know you've won a new subscriber thanks to your great content, unless I fail my upcoming exam
It is a good game! It's just not a GREAT game. It's a pretty good metroidvania with a neat, enjoyable story, definitely worth playing, but I'm kinda happy I didn't pay full price for it.
6:48 the poncho collection is disappointing af. I remember when in kotor and kotor 2 or even swtor mmo you had a lot of different and beautiful costumes to choose from. This? This is just horse s**t tbf
I love Fallen Order and I'll admit that the collectables SUCKED. Really the only cosmetic items I actually liked were the kyber crystals (because who doesn't want to change their lightsaber crystal) and the New Game + Inquisitor outfit, because at least THAT was different and looked cool.
@@TheAwkwardGamer kybers are cool but it isnt anything new. i know im reapting myself but kotor had the same thing. even better bc crystals gave you better stats in kotor 1 & 2
Stopped at the spoiler chart, bought Disney plus, watched all 4 episodes of the Mandalorion, then came back to this vid 😂 Edit: didn’t need to but oh well, I’m glad I took the dive and watched the show, it’s really good
You'll want to watch "The Nerd Crew." It's cute, but also a satirical comment on the gullible masses who think placing things they recognize in a new property deserves praise.
The only thing I disliked about the game was the buggy climbing, places where you think you can jump but in reality you missed the point by a few inches.
Games don’t need a button to make you grab anymore or honestly ever. If my character is dumb enough to not grab something and fall to their death then they’re too stupid to be the protagonist.
Also all the jumps in the beginning that are JUST out of reach is insanely frustrating and only made worse when you realize sprinting then jumping doesn’t add to the distance jumped.
I only played this game this past month feel like it really benefited from some patches 😂. I didn’t experience any of those glitches. I really enjoyed it but it was deffos a rip off type of game
I love how this video has enough memes, Star Wars and even a motherfucking Videogamedunkey reference, and yet it's one of the most honest reviews of this game. Great job, as always I died in laughters
Just finished this game on Grandmaster in one week (34 hours, found every collectible). Only got a real glitch once after dipping my toe into New Journey +, likely fixed up via patches. If you can get this game for $30 or less and like Star Wars or From Soft, go for it. I would love to see some of those Giant Leaps implemented in a sequel, but yeah. This game is far from fantastic, one of my biggest issues is there are only about 5 actual bosses that aren’t just nastier regular enemies.
This is what I love about Girlfriend reviews, even for a person like me who doesn't know anything about the history of games or history of star wars games in general, they tell you everything in the beginning clearly and entertaining and set you right for the video. Good job Shelby and Matt, Keep going...
@@redassassian did Bioware also force themselves to work with EA's engine on dragon age cause pretty sure that was EA's idea and performance and general game design suffered for it also Andromeda was made by Bioware Montreal a smaller dev while main Bioware worked on Anthem which i can agree they can take full credit for that being said i would also say it's not a coincidence that tons of devs EA has acquired went to crap under them and have since been shut down (maxis, blackbox, pandemic, visceral games, etc) all that aside all shelby said was they had them work on anthem and said that as a joke still doesn't make everything else they said about EA being crap wrong :p
@@theninjamaster67 engines are expensive to make so that is understandable. Anthem whole idea and execution is on bioware and ea is only to blame for not being big brother ea to them. On andromada, bioware went full sjw so go woke go broke. She is wrong that ea made bioware go to shit.
Tons of games have optional collectibles. She didn't even mention the light saber customization parts you can collect. One of the few collectibles in games I actually went back to make sure I found all of them.
I totally agree with you, after failing for the 50th time on one of the sliding challenges, I rage quit, uninstalled the game, and gave it to my friend, hoping it would torture him. Unfortunately, he liked the game and finished it.
@@jrelyea ik, but qe work with what we have, like battlefront is shit and the other one with space fights even more, at least hope for Jedi Survior to inovate
@@ZeR-nr6if Yes you're right. Nothing against people who like this game, it was just super frustrating for me. There have been so many great Star Wars games, and I know a lot of people like this one, but I don't.
Same here, it's perfectly reasonable when you get all these glitches and you demand more polish tho, but me watching these videos with AC Unity levels of glitches when I had barely none is like... what the hell is going on did I get a special copy or smth?
Love these reviews. At first I wasn’t sure, but soon came to realize how perfect these two are for each other. How both of their input works together to make a unique voice. Also the editing is so on point.
What... I'm currently playing it and it's a giant smoking ball of shit. Hopefully I'll be done with it in a few days. I seriously thought it would be a good game when the Survivor sequel was announced, but holy crap was I wrong about that.
I like how she gives a fore notice that she isn't going to spoil anything about the story, and then mentions a character that appears in the final 10 minutes of the game
the first 3 and a half minutes of this review were an emotional roller coaster. RIP Lucas Arts. Did you play it on PS4? I heard that one was far more glitchy. I only encountered one... I fell through the world for an eternity.
didn't have many issues on the One X though I think there may be some kind of memory leak? the longer I went playing without actually fully closing out the game it got more jank
I don’t know, I didn’t deal with any of these bugs or gameplay issues like I saw in the video. Don’t know if there was an update or not but my experience was super smooth

Normally, patching a game isn't something to applaud, but this is EA so it's a big deal when they actually spend time and money to go back to fix something lol. I CAN NOT WAIT until the sequel comes out in March (until the inevitable delay announcement comes and it gets pushed back to June). As long as the story is good and they've improved the areas where Fallen Order was lacking (force powers, customizations, PONCHO'S, etc...) it's got huge potential.
Same here, I got an Xbox series x recently and picked this game up for Xmas and love it.
Same, and I actually play all the games this one is borrowing from. I loved it. Played it last year and there was only one area that glitched on me. I went up an elevator. Could hear sound effects of a battle going on but it was completely empty. I ran around confused in this empty place that apparently had a war going on and slowly storm troopers loaded in. "Oh?" I said. Then wookies. "Whaaaatttt...". Then a freaking AT-AT. The game had put me up there before anything else was properly loaded in. It was a wonderfully, confusing, out of body experience.
This was one of the worst reviews I have ever seen. So clearly biased and just plain stupid. Every games takes from others and also no one would play the Arkham games if they weren’t Batman but she didn’t have any problems with them.

First of all, since you're new here, I'll let you know that this is a comedy channel. It's all for fun, not for serious critique. Also, they do-often-offer great insight and genuine critique during the lolz.
Second: This is about a video game. And video games are fun, not serious.
Third: That's just, like, your opinion, man. Try stating opinions as opinions. People might actually pay attention to what you're saying. Boisterously spouting insults like this is a good way for people to not care what you say or think.
I loved the game, AND I loved their review of it, even if they didn't love it as much as I did!

I played the game. I enjoyed it. But asked myself “does it live up to the hype”.
These guys summed the game up perfectly.
Watching reviews of the falle order I feel like Battlefront 2 now is in a better state than fallen order. Battlefront 2 is very very enjoyable with friends, especially if you're a star wars fan
@@thilensavignon1999 I could say the same for RE5 and 6
I pretty much agreed with all the flaws accept the performance and glitches I had basically 0 to none but everything else was flawed.
GF Reviews: "It doesn't meet the industry standard."
Disney: "I find your lack of faith disturbing."
How does she know? She only started playing games a few years back.
@@FraserSouris exactly.
@@FraserSouris You do know that there's a boyfriend in girlfriend reviews..? She doesn't do this all by herself
@@assnassassins7395
That's not the point. The point is that her "character" shouldn't know that. The videos are of a girl who spectates her boyfriend playing games and comments on it in funny ways while knowing nothing about games.
We know her Boyfriend actually makes these videos but that's not a part of the fiction. In order to be consistent, the video should have had her be giddy at everything because it all looks so good rather than calling it out because her character doesn't know it
@@FraserSouris It really isn't that important :)
I thought I was crazy. First thing I thought when I played it was “this is god of war , sonic & uncharted.
@tincho It's not inherently a bad thing, no. It's just that they only copy those things well enough to either imitate them or do them slightly worse.
@tincho It's a safe thing. The grey side of the force.
@tincho it wouldn't be a bad thing if they improved upon those formulae in any way... I'd rather go play any of the games that this game borrows from rather than this game.
@@kyleweir689 Improving upon a formula would mean that you'd bother centering the game around these mechanics in the first place.
The only real mechanic it really needs to improve upon is the exploration and the combat. The Metroidvania traversal doesn't need anymore shit tacked on.

The whole intro was an RLM reference, too, basically. All of those clips of Lucas are central motifs of the Plinkett reviews!
Ok I’m gonna be honest, when I bought this game, I didn’t have one issue, no glitches, and I enjoyed it. This game reminded me so much of the original Star Wars films and it was original. Sorry if you didn’t have that same experience
Well..... She didn't review the game, she reviewed how it is to experience it as a backseat gamer. It's her boyfriend who plays it.
I just watched cal T-pose off a cliff in my own game…so… lmao
same its weird when i played it had very few glitches or bugs, none of them game breaking
They're probably patched out. Also played the game a few months ago and there were virtually no bugs barring a glitch or two

Girlfriend reviews after finishing dark souls: Sector Is clear

Girlfriend Reviews : Hol up a minute
I had a blast with the game and ran into virtually none of the issues they experienced. I got stuck against a wall in an infinite fall once and that sucked, but that's the only time something like it happened.
The game doesn't do anything "new" but to me that's like dismissing every FPS in the last 15ish years for not doing anything new. This game combines a lot of concepts I enjoy into a single game with a story I found compelling.
Hopefully you have a similar experience. Cheers
@@MindlessZ I experienced a glitch with a no bounty hunter play through. But I didn't know that was a glitch til now. Other than that it was pretty flawless lol
@@MindlessZ Agreed. "It doesn't do anything new" is an odd thing to say, considering 99% of games aren't exactly unique

My comment was actually more for the state of Star Wars in general. I feel this video perfectly encapsulates the quality spiral the series has traveled down (for years now). But that's a larger deeper reflection. I come here to enjoy the ever awesome humor. :)
This is late, but I feel the response “I’m sorry I couldn’t give it to you sooner” is sorely slept on. It’s an excellent comeback, and personally fits based on my own feelings on the game. I loved the game honestly.
I've been sitting here, watching your videos for the past hour instead of studying. Just know you've won a new subscriber thanks to your great content, unless I fail my upcoming exam

I love Fallen Order and I'll admit that the collectables SUCKED. Really the only cosmetic items I actually liked were the kyber crystals (because who doesn't want to change their lightsaber crystal) and the New Game + Inquisitor outfit, because at least THAT was different and looked cool.
@@TheAwkwardGamer kybers are cool but it isnt anything new. i know im reapting myself but kotor had the same thing. even better bc crystals gave you better stats in kotor 1 & 2

Oh, that "I clapped! I clapped when I saw Darth Vader" RLM reference... it's so beautiful, it brought a tear to my eye.
oh they stole that from RedLetterMedia, their favourite TH-cam channel.
This moment was delivered perfectly :)
I clapped when I heard "I clapped" because I know that refrence.
I clapped when I saw that TOO!
Rich Evans is the key to all this.
"I clapped when I saw Darth Vader!" Shelby is so cute. I win bye bye.
You'll want to watch "The Nerd Crew." It's cute, but also a satirical comment on the gullible masses who think placing things they recognize in a new property deserves praise.
The only thing I disliked about the game was the buggy climbing, places where you think you can jump but in reality you missed the point by a few inches.
Games don’t need a button to make you grab anymore or honestly ever. If my character is dumb enough to not grab something and fall to their death then they’re too stupid to be the protagonist.
Also all the jumps in the beginning that are JUST out of reach is insanely frustrating and only made worse when you realize sprinting then jumping doesn’t add to the distance jumped.
@@Mocityspirit but you are the protagonist... Or at least their motor function part of their brain
It gives me nostalgia, that shit happened all the bit in the 8 and 16 bit era
They did the same thing in Doom Eternal too. It's slightly subjective. You're being given more control. I didn't mind it once I got the hang of it

what other youtube reviewers fail to accomplish in 30 minute videos, this channel exceeds in 10 minutes with tons of memes. Love you guys.
LichKing786 YES
I only played this game this past month feel like it really benefited from some patches 😂. I didn’t experience any of those glitches. I really enjoyed it but it was deffos a rip off type of game
I love how this video has enough memes, Star Wars and even a motherfucking Videogamedunkey reference, and yet it's one of the most honest reviews of this game. Great job, as always I died in laughters
“Wut?”
Cracked me up everytime
4:32 I’m sorry, that insert of the fresh prince intro was just too perfect 🤣🤣
Just finished this game on Grandmaster in one week (34 hours, found every collectible). Only got a real glitch once after dipping my toe into New Journey +, likely fixed up via patches. If you can get this game for $30 or less and like Star Wars or From Soft, go for it.
I would love to see some of those Giant Leaps implemented in a sequel, but yeah. This game is far from fantastic, one of my biggest issues is there are only about 5 actual bosses that aren’t just nastier regular enemies.
This is what I love about Girlfriend reviews, even for a person like me who doesn't know anything about the history of games or history of star wars games in general, they tell you everything in the beginning clearly and entertaining and set you right for the video. Good job Shelby and Matt, Keep going...
I feel exactly the same!!
Except they are so wrong about bioware, it went to shit by itself not ea. Anthem and andromada was their shit idea, not EA.
@@redassassian did Bioware also force themselves to work with EA's engine on dragon age cause pretty sure that was EA's idea and performance and general game design suffered for it also Andromeda was made by Bioware Montreal a smaller dev while main Bioware worked on Anthem which i can agree they can take full credit for that being said i would also say it's not a coincidence that tons of devs EA has acquired went to crap under them and have since been shut down (maxis, blackbox, pandemic, visceral games, etc) all that aside all shelby said was they had them work on anthem and said that as a joke still doesn't make everything else they said about EA being crap wrong :p
@@theninjamaster67 engines are expensive to make so that is understandable. Anthem whole idea and execution is on bioware and ea is only to blame for not being big brother ea to them. On andromada, bioware went full sjw so go woke go broke.
She is wrong that ea made bioware go to shit.
She just narrates the videos, her bf is the one who actually writes it
"One can never have enough ponchos." - EA
That's why RDR2 doesn't have ponchos... EA stole them from every game.

the first 3 and a half minutes of this review were an emotional roller coaster. RIP Lucas Arts. Did you play it on PS4? I heard that one was far more glitchy. I only encountered one... I fell through the world for an eternity.
Yeah I played on PC and didn't see any of these glitches aside from very rarely (like 4 or 5 over my whole playthrough) like 10-20 second freezes.
didn't have many issues on the One X though I think there may be some kind of memory leak? the longer I went playing without actually fully closing out the game it got more jank
