Reviews aren't everything. It's possible to form you own information based on gameplay demos etc.
This game sounds like it's right up my alley. EA really have done a poor job of marketing this.
I am doing my part: I very rarely pre-order games. The last two that I did? ME: Andromeda (OH NO!) and No Man's Sky (divisive at launch, to say the least!)
Despite being very excited about Fallen Order, I am not pre-ordering it, and you all can thank me for not putting my hex on it when it turns out great.

You should read the guy I quoted. Instead of researching, they'd rather spend $60 for a game they didn't care about originally. Like, why bother preordering? It's not like it won't be available after launch day.
I don't understand why some of you are having a serious change of heart for the game, I mean nothing they've said and shown since it's reveal has changed, everything the guy mentioned here was spoken about in interviews and impressions. Yes some of the finer details were released during the preview event but Respawn never denied it's Soul-ish inspiration.
That game sounds amazing since it's reveal, I'm puzzled as to how anyone thought there's been a shift in the game's offering.
Perhaps it's the anti-EA sentiment, but it might be time to reflect on how such knee jerk reactions can end up working against yourselves.
Game has always been day one for me. It's the SW experience I've been waiting for since KoToR.

Media outlets hype games for clicks, there is a huge difference when someone who's got no strings to anything gives impressions on a game, this is why.
The first video reveal was underwhelming to most people (especially since they advertised is as high level play). The way they announced the game by sitting in the audience and just saying it was coming with no logo or video. All sorts of things have been messed up in the marketing of this.
Respawn themselves said that they weren't happy with how E3 was handled, and they've handled things better since then. That being said, I preordered it day one.
Everything they showed up to the story trailer looked awful to me. That is worth more than interviews and written previews saying it's good. There are a bunch of 90+ on Metacritic games that I think are trash, so other people liking things I don't like isn't anything new.
Then, since that story trailer the game looked great and I'm interested. It's not that complex.
It will, death stranding is a very decisive game. You can see that alone in the design, it's definitely not meant for everyone. But it doesn't take away what it has accomplished. Star Wars reviews will be more tight due to its design......I expect it to rate higher
I'm just glad I can finally spend a good month+ playing two great and very different games
Man, I'm legit hyped for this, It comes out two days after my birthday but I won't be able to get it until way later (I'm still secretly hoping I will win the era giveaway hahah), maybe I'll be able to jump in with premier plus, will see. But after all the previews it looks like the SW game I was waiting for :D
Thats a bit too much hyperbole for me to take seriously. Everything about the game is AWESOME!!! I'm hoping its good and that last trailer was way better than anything before but this sounds like the kind of review you get from early test screenings of a movie.
I'm not saying you're wrong, but it kinda reminds me of when the reveal for 2015 Battlefront came out, and no one thought that the final graphics could look that good, and they did.
This is an opposite situation a bit though right? Every preview I've seen I don't think the graphics look impressive at all and have a very early CG lighting look to them where the skin textures look flat. Granted it might really come together when you're actually playing it but the visuals have never seemed like a strong point for the game. Kid just sound deservedly excited for getting the chance to play a game early.
Sorry, I meant in general, saying that x can't be/ won't be that good. Saying that I think the graphics are good, and apparently people that have played it, say it's a gorgeous game (as in game reviewers, not just the Reddit person lol).
Man the decision to get this or Pokemon is hard.
I'll probably end up getting Pokemon since this should go on sale sooner, but I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if I ended up liking this game more. It seems to be doing so much right.

Huuu
Not surprising after current Battlefront II ? Every single update is free and significant, no paid DLC. Not even cosmetics.
They have been on damage control and doing things right after the huge backlash. Not sure about their other games but at least SW is doing better.
Ehh..you could also make an argument people will hate on something for clicks. In fact that tends to get more clicks in general. But there were only a few outlets who weren't as glowing about the game as everyone else. I think the fact what rhe redditer has said matches up with what the media has said just means people were honestly impressed with the game
In fact most of the media was just as underwhelmed with the game as Era before the preview event. Edge and Gameinformer were some of the few outlets who saw its potential early on
Seriously, I don't understand why, if people seem to love Fallen Order, they're shills, but if they dislike Death Stranding, they're idiots etc etc.
Spot on, but I feel this happens on here from time to time. I would not be at all surprised if this game ends up being the real thing, something great. I've been pretty sold on it from very early on.
Why not just pre-order like, a day before release? To grab all the goodies.
Yeah, tbh, if I hadn't found it for cheaper than the standard edition, I would've gone for standard.
Yeah, I don't mind paid DLC when its in the vein of expansions like the Witcher 3 had. A lot of the time it's like 2 boring missions and pointless side quests. Like Watch Dogs 2.
I mean are you forgetting that this game had a really bad E3 showing that didn't actually explain what the game was? It just showcased some awkward-looking combat and a very linear play forming segment. It wasn't until some people saw the longer behind-closed-doors demo that we started getting "no, wait, this game might actually be great" buzz.
