Star Wars Outlaws: 7/10. It's nothing special, very low res/blurry (TAA). Same old game mechanics you have already played for last 20 years: you once play something from Ubi, you play them all. This game needs more of "when jabba turd hits the fan"-style game play instead of gameovers as that's when SW action actually starts. i.e. you don't get caught but blaster show starts instead. Also this would benefit a lot from improved stealth mechanics as game is trying but not delivering.

New games aren't just worth buying as it's TAA pixel mush everywhere unless you can install modifications to improve the graphics.
Someone made interesting video showing comparison images (on YT :-D which compresses everything to pixel mush:-)

to be honest, at least blundered DLC launch was there marked as "incident"

Gameplay-wise game feels like I have played this kind of game 100 times before. You have your "traditional" console interface, everything feels like same as in another console port.
Developers even didn't bother to add extra keys for PC so you're juggling weapons to slots in mid-fight! Another game play decision I didn't understand was ammo limit as you can practically craft everywhere.

All in all, this is safe approach: you get a console game, somewhat interesting story which is revealed to be full of loopholes and most likely you're able to stomach this until you play it through. Shame that really exciting feeling & suspense at the start of the game won't last.

2/2
