Although, I'm sure the only reason EA were willing to take the risk is because it's Star Wars they could never have turned a profit otherwise, since publishers continue to insist it's standard practice that AAA games be developed on solid gold desks, with computers liquid-cooled by the semen of prizewinning stallions.

Somewhere along the line, the reaction to AAA hype drifted from 'Ooh, I'm excited for this!' to 'Ooh, it's not immediately obvious how they're going to fuck this one up!' Such was the case with Jedi: Fallen Order: EA brings out a new Star Wars game, and after Battlefront II, I cringe like an abused dog expecting another newspaper across the snout, 'cos I expect them to charge micropayments for Yoda's every last misarranged sentence.īut no! For once, AAA is using its powers for good (by 'powers', I mean 'enormous wealth', but hey, it's never made a difference to Batman): they made a good, old-fashioned single-player action-adventure cobbled together from good ideas cribbed from other single-player action-adventures that people seem to like, and the result is a perfectly solid if somewhat unoriginal game that people seem to like that they barely even try to wring out for maximum cash.
