thirdorbital,

I know basically nothing about this game but I'm completely burned out on the Ubisoft open world model of a huge map completely littered with mindless collectible junk and grindy side-quests. Is there reason to hope that this will be different than the same junk Assassin's Creed and Far Cry have been pushing out, or are most expecting the same thing in a Star Wars setting?

MrScottyTay,

I'm certain a year or two so they talked about how they had started to amalgamate features from their games across the board and how is stifled in house creativity (I've got no source on this at the moment but I'm sure i remember this) and how they're going to be starting to move away from that.

If this is true then this is likely one of the first games to try and move away from that stone this would likely have been started after that was said.

thirdorbital,

I suppose I'll believe it when I see it. Thanks for the context though!

MrScottyTay,

Found the source

Tl;dr: they restructured their editorial team in an effort to make their games more unique to one another.

I'm not the biggest fan of Ubisoft, which is why it's confusing that I'm a little excited for this one.

That being said, I will definitely be careful and wait for sale, still knowing the publisher.

Also if it isn't on Steam, it'll have to be even cheaper.

farados,

I also have reservations regarding Ubisoft, but this is as close to Star Wars 1313 as we're gonna get now. It's so refreshing to not be a Jedi in a star wars video game.

We must be cautious!

candid,

May the cautiousness be with you.

1313 getting cancelled is one of the biggest disappointments in gaming in recent memory.

MrScottyTay,

It also gives me big star wars ragtag vibes too
