I bought this game on Steam and linked it to my EA account, as required. After about 3 hours of playing Jedi: Fallen Order, my EA account was suddenly banned without warning or clear explanation. I’ve never cheated, and I only played the game on my own PC and via GeForce NOW — both of which EA officially supports.

The ban completely blocks access to both this game and Jedi: Survivor (which I launched once I got an EA pop-up message that I am not allowed to play it!), because EA requires account authentication even for single-player games. Steam refuses to refund me because my playtime exceeded 2 hours — even though I legally can’t access the game anymore. EA support is unresponsive, and this feels like a violation of basic consumer rights, especially under EU law (Directive 2019/770).

⚠️ Be extremely cautious before buying EA games tied to external accounts. If your EA account gets flagged — even by mistake — you could lose access to your games permanently, with no recourse.

Wish I had known that simply using GeForce NOW or a VPN could trigger a permanent ban. This is unacceptable customer treatment in 2025.

The game by itself seemed fine for as long as I was able to play.

*UPDATE:
Following a vague and unexplained account ban by EA — which blocked my access to this single-player game — my account has now been reactivated. I can play again, but EA never explained what “rule” I allegedly broke. Their response simply mentioned “toxic behavior” without any details.

For the record: I’ve never played EA multiplayer games, never interacted in their forums or communities, and never received a warning. My only activity was playing Jedi: Fallen Order through Steam, on my own PC and GeForce NOW (both officially supported platforms).

I lost my entire weekend trying to understand what happened and was denied a refund because my playtime slightly exceeded 2 hours. Steam couldn’t help, and EA support gave a copy-paste reply referring me to their Positive Play Charter — which mostly applies to online interactions I’ve never taken part in.

Bottom line:
While my account is now unbanned, the fact that a single-player game purchase can be revoked without warning, for unclear reasons, and with no recourse is deeply concerning.
Buy with caution — especially if you plan to play via cloud gaming or VPN. This system isn’t as reliable or consumer-friendly as it should be in 2025.

I was really unsure about this game. I see "Very Positive" and think it's going to be a sure thing. I can't tell you how hollow this game feels. Constant platforming, very little fighting. Finding chests just gives you more cosmetics. There's no real reward for exploring. Every new world is the same kind of puzzles.

The characters are not engaging. I feel nothing for Cal. Nothing for his companions. I'm glad I got this on sale, otherwise the full price would have been so excessive. Ignore the hype. Play Uncharted or Tomb Raider instead.

This game could be good, if it wasn't for the astonishing choice to add a truly terrible map to a game with no fast travel.

WHY?

Who thought this was a good idea?

Why would I want to spend an hour backtracking through a confusing maze of paths to get back to my ship??
Who would possibly enjoy that?

The set pieces so far are gorgeous, and the plot is weak but functional ("Lets go find all the force sensitive children in the galaxy to raise as Jedi to overthrow the evil empire" is a terrible plan for many practical reasons in addition to the whole "child soldiers" angle, but is exactly the sort of thing a Jedi would come up with, so fine) and the traversal is fun at first, but gets incredibly repetitive with the constant forced backtracking!

Having played some more since this review I thought I'd update it with a review of the combat; it sucks.

Its clearly aiming for a souls-like style, but just ii not very good. Its not difficult per say, but it feels awful a lot of the time with input lag and janky movement making fights feel terrible.

One of the worst games i have ever played. Most stupid storyline. You travel around planets that are basically reskins of one another, parkouring in the meantime and killing stupid mobs. You travel to a planet and the only thing you discover is double jump ability or some other stupid thing. Chests are useless, bosses are almost the same and overall game feels stupid useless and not worthy of your time. The only thing this game is good at is at fighting insomnia. 3/10. Do not recommend

Awful tedious map design uninstalled after second return to zeffo, impossible to navigate and map unclear

fun but zeffo should have been nuked instead of alderaan

This was one of the most boring games I've played in a long time. I may not be the target audience, but I expected them to use some of the amazing combat their benefit. Most of your time is spent jumping and wall running. I played it for a few hours and I just got so bored I just put it down. If it wasn't too late to refund I would and never look back.

The only thing reliable in this game is BD1.
