Star Wars Outlaws - it's fine. It's seems I'm about 20% done, it's mostly fun. It's also kind of clunky. At certain times there's no clear direction on what you should do, which is fine but in a big open world(s) that leads to getting halfway up a cliff then hitting an invisible barrier.

Also a decent amount of stealth, which is not my strong suit. I'd say that's kind of messed up too but it might just be me. Fear not, if you are sneaking in someplace to steal a specific object and get caught - make a mad dash for it. If killed-caught you'll still have the object.

Also the data spike door opening (lockpicking) is awful. I turned it to easy for a while then turned it off. Just not fun and super annoying

I finished this tonight. Overall I liked it, it got better towards the end. Basically looking back - main story missions were mostly fun with a variety of things to do. Side missions, contracts, etc - pretty boring. Decent story too, but it takes a while to get going.

Also for some reason I got the season pass, the first DLC was one of the better quests in the game IMO.

Cool I'll pick it up thanks for the playthrough experience

Good game then?

The opening was great, pretty much a shot by shot recreation of the opening of Raiders....Troy Baker's Harrison Ford impersonation is great
