I agree with all of this. I will say that Battlefront II is an excellent game NOW. The loot box stuff nearly killed it, but it has bounced back nicely and is a nice game now. If EA wasnt involved here, I would not have any reservation, but I'm with you that I immediately think negative when EA is involved. Anthem burned me bad, but honestly that was as much if not more Bioware than it was EA. With all that said, I am really hoping for the best with this game because it could change things IMO.I really want to like what I am seeing. But I just can't trust it.
1. It's a Star Wars game. They have sucked hard since Kotor.
2. Its EA, they have sucked worse for decades.
3. It's an EA Starwars game. Which have recently redefined suckage, both on the game itself and how they run it.
Agreed. I will just wait a couple months. Let the newness wear off and let the EA white knights go quiet before making a decision.I agree with all of this.

like you spend the first ten hours having no effing clue what to do and the game punishes you for not instantly being a master player and knowing what an enemy will do before it one shots you?Im in love with it..............................for the 2 hours I have played it. Story has me and combat is pretty good. Its uncharted/souls/tomb raider in the star wars universe with saber combat
Shame that this wasnt a nomination for Game of the Year (due to its release time). The combat is well done and the game mechanics brings in Uncharted, Sekiro, and metroid prime with a great story. Really hope that they release some sort of NG+ or DLC for the game.
Reviewers didnt get it in time for it to really be considered.It released on the same day of the deadline for the game award nominees to be submitted. Technically it COULD have been part of this year's awards but I'm willing to bet it will get a reprieve and be allowed to be voted on for next year.
As much as I want to play this, I've pretty much shut it down for buying anything new the remaining of this generation. I'm just focusing on getting caught up with my backlog, all while still playing GAAS games like Destiny 2, Fortnite, Apex Legends, etc until next gen starts. I will definitely play this but it's going to be on PS5. Same goes for Red Dead 2, Days Gone, Death Stranding, Cyberpunk 2077, The Last of Us Part 2, and Ghost of Tsushima.
