Is anyone else like, seriously looking forward to this game? I wasn't expecting much, but everything I've heard so far has been music to my ears. Hopefully the reviews are decent.

Hoping it'll finally be what gets my daughter into star wars 😅
Yes, i'm playing on 60 fps.
My impressions are pretty good. I've been having fun with the humor, but I will admit that they move the story along at kind of a fast pace. I guess since there are 9 episodes to cover, makes sense. But the game does feel pretty open at most times, and there's been a good variety to the gameplay with a good amount of side content as well.
Here is a quick vid I took of a side mission from Ep IV.
Shame to hear about the speed of the story but certainly understandable. Thanks for the video. Certainly looks more involved than the OG. The resolution is concerning, if only digital foundry had access to games prior to release.
Also Luke's facial expression is 10/10. I am filled with joy just watching. I am excited for a chill game.
How long would you say the individual levels are so far? I'm guessing around 20 minutes or so, perhaps even less.
Does the story go at a faster pace than the original Lego Star Wars games?
I'd say thats a fair assessment. Depends on if you take the time to pick up collectibles while you're in it.
I think it does, but I haven't played those in a long time.
It makes sense for the game to go with a faster pace with the story, here we have all 9 episodes. With an average time of 30 min per each chapter (and that without looking for all the collectibles) we would be talking of a game with more than 20h of content. And it seems that there is also story progress in the open worlds, so even more time.
It's not a review based on playing the game, it's a collection of paragraphs that say "the game will probably have…".
A mode like this. I haven't heard anything about it returning so I'm not expecting it but it would be my most wanted feature if there is ever any DLC!
Oh wow, I've never heard of that! That's really cool, I don't see anything like that available, unfortunately. maybe something unlockable? My son is almost through the game, should be done by tomorrow at his current pace.
As someone above stated, 5 per movie.
Split screen is fun. The performance is a little worse and i think i see more tearing there than in single player. Frame rate on PS5 is solid in split screen though. A few minor hitches like if you are initiating a cutscene or dialogue with one character, the other character will start moving on its own.
I'm excited for this. I did a tiny amount of work with the studio as a user researcher many years ago on this game when it was in very early stages and the concept excited me even then. The LEGO games are always good fun.
I don't know if I can pick it up at launch day because PS5 games are pricey and I just bought Tiny Tina's Wonderlands but I'd like to jump in a little down the road.

I'm very interested. Seeing if remote play may be a viable option for online, should be fine but depends on connection so I'll have to find out with those I'd like to play with specifically.
Needed a palette cleanser after beating Elden Ring (woohoo!) so ended up making a few more gameplay vids. Edited in share factory so i'm not sure if that messes with the quality at all.
Episode VII Intro cutscene and gameplay. I like how the cutscenes mimic the cinematography and camera movements of the movies
Episode IV Leaving Tatooine and some Death Star gameplay and cutscenes
Episode IV - Funny Segment. I'd say this might be a bit of a spoiler, but it caught me off guard and I thought it was pretty hilarious.

seeing this, and remembering how cool this was, i now just want lego island 3 with skywalker saga gameplay
I have a 7 month vacation, this will be a perfect start, i think i will buy it tomorrow, will wait for rewievs though.
I want to wait for some reviews as well before I buy the game. I hope, they will have reviews before tomorrow. So far, I have only found one in Google cache:

I guess this was released too early. The article is not on the actual site anymore. Score is 4.5/5.
LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga Review | Hey Poor Player
The Skywalker Saga is a triumphant return to form for TT Games. Covering all nine big screen Episodes in one game has presented players with a Star Wars sandbox like no other.

Anyone that already has their hands on it, is it possible to remove certain elements from the HUD? Damage number, health bars etc. I am finding the HUD to be very intrusive.
Seems like you can!
Waiting for some more reviews, but tempted to get for Switch (frame rate and graphics on early copies seems to be ok)
I'm confident this will review really strongly, but I'm curious that no reviews have gone live yet.
copy arrived today, just upgrading it atm. looking forward to a bit of a chill game after elden ring!
It should. It will unlock in about an hour in New Zealand, I'll check then.
Doesn't look like it yet. I'd expect (not certain) reviews to start showing up in 25 minutes since it's releasing in New Zealand then.
Edit: I'm wrong, see the meta critic tweet.

Idk about Marvel, but this game wouldn't work with the dynamic splitscreen since it has a over-the-shoulder controllable camera.
seriously asking this question too. game went from 'ill buy two copies' to 'im good' when i found out theres no online co-op
I really want to try this out. I have always liked the LEGO games, and this looks to be the best one yet.
Its usually an unlockable (different lego city type stages) by finding red bricks iirc. It appeared in most lego games (dont know if all of them).
Man.... Just read up on Character Creation being cut..... 🥺
That's easily my favorite aspect of Lego games. DC Supervillains revolving around your custom character was why that game was so great for me.
Damn that sucks. I'll wait for a deep sale, and hope the feature makes it back for future games.

Cool! Excited for this and I've been contemplating picking it up, but not until reviews drop.
Weird, the several videos I saw looked pretty good, even if only 720p docked.
I saw some videos too. I started with episode 1 and as soon as I got to the Gungan city, the pop in and framerate issues were very noticeable.
