Ubisoft's open-world Star Wars game, Star Wars: Outlaws, has been criticized by fans for some time, with some players pointing out that the game looks too rough and too mediocre. As Ubisoft's highest-budget game to date, Star Wars: Outlaws has released its final preview, and this time the media has pointed out new shortcomings: the gunplay and combat feel clunky and too simple.


Twitter user Okami13_ shared his experience of playing "Star Wars: Outlaws". He listed many advantages, such as the open world of the game is more "organic" than other Ubisoft games, locations and special events will occur randomly, similar to "Red Dead Redemption 2", etc.

But it also mentioned some shortcomings, such as the core part of the game experience - combat and gunplay were described as "clunky and rather simple". In addition, the game's space battles were also criticized, although this is only a small part of the game experience.


Some players on X also pointed out that the AI ​​of Star Wars: Outlaws behaves like a retard during combat:

Although the IGN editor said that the combat mechanism of "Star Wars: Outlaws" made him very happy, in fact, in the demo released by IGN, it can be clearly seen that the enemy AI has almost no reaction when being shot, and just stands there stupidly. One player pointed out that "this NPC really stood there motionless for a few seconds, while constantly shooting."

If you think this is just a special case, you are wrong. In fact, there have been similar videos on X for a long time, and at least the "final" preview build recently sent to the media is not much improved compared to the previous ones.
