Put aside the game itself, because i can barely play it: 1. Launch the game (which launches ubisoft connect on PC) 2. Select Continue 3. Play for 2 minutes 4. Game exits itself 5. Ubisoft connect tries to sync and fails 6. Go back to 1. 7. Sometimes don't even go back to 1, it goes to 0, where i lost most recent saves and have to do even more work to get back to where i was, so that it crashes again This is constantly happening to me, and I am on an AMD RX 6600 & Ryzen 5 3600, with 32 GB of RAM and an SSD. Not the best but also should be able to play this game just fine.

First of all, this review is objective as I am not a Star Wars lover or hater, I got this game as it seemed interesting to have an open world experience in the Star Wars universe. TL;DR: if you are looking to be immersed in a Star Wars universe, this game lets you do that, if you are looking for a game with amazing gameplay, this isn't it. It isn't worth the full price at AUD99.95, but would consider for 60-70% off or via Ubisoft sub. The storyline is good but also very predictable, not that it is a pro or a con, just a statement. Personally, trusting someone you barely met with your ship (albeit stolen) is a very big leap of faith, as everyone has an agenda. I played on an AMD RX 6600 & Ryzen 5 3600, with 32 GB of RAM and an SSD, and whilst I could play a recent game like "Black Myth: Wukong" without any issues, Star Wars Outlaws was a bit of a let down: - dropped frames during battles or driving the speeder - crashes once per day - loading sometime takes 30-60 seconds Admittedly, my setup isn't the best but I also didn't expect to have so much issues with this game. Now comes the bugs, every game has bugs, but for AUD 99.95, I expected less bugs: - as mentioned above, crashes at least once per day - going up some terrain causes some weird stuttering on the MC - some slicing don't open the door / computer, you have to restart the game entirely for it to start working, by then you have to redo the whole infiltration - sometimes you die from falling from less than 2m Then there is QoL that are also not great: - skipping the take offs or landing doesn't skip at all, the whole sequence is about 30-35 seconds, and skip maybe 5 seconds as it still goes through most of the take off of 30 seconds, and skips only when you are already in space - requires a constant connection to Ubisoft servers, which isnt such a problem but sometimes Ubisoft fails to sync whilst you play and it immediately just closes the game - riding the speeder locks the mouse movements to the speeder, so you can't just look around without making a sudden turn, which is very annoying, you have to deal with a 2second animation to get off the speeder so you can just look around. Other things I found a bit weird: - when you "knock out" people from stealth mode, its a bit silly that you punch storm troopers helmet with your bare fist, but they resist a blaster headshot - you can use your blaster, and NPCs within 100m might come around, but beyond that, they dont really give a shit even tho part of their based are getting attacked - no way to disarm / disable / destroy AT-ST Walker, you pretty much just have to hide and run, grenades or machine guns do nothing against it Probs more things to write about but this is the gist.
