Jedi Survivor is a mess from start to finish. For a game that launched at a premium price, it felt more like a beta test than a full release. The performance is consistently bad throughout the entire game. Constant stuttering and frame drops ruin the flow and make it hard to stay engaged.

The story takes a while to get going, and the early hours are slow and uninspired. Combat feels rough and repetitive until much later, and even then it only barely comes together. For a sequel, it somehow manages to feel like a step back from Jedi Fallen Order.

Some of the late game moments are solid, and there are flashes of good design buried under the mess. But by the time anything interesting happens, you are already hours deep into frustration.

It is a shame because the potential is there. The setting is rich, the characters have promise, but it is all dragged down by a game that feels unpolished and poorly optimized.

Jedi Survivor should have launched in a polished and ready state. Instead, it is a technical disaster that never really recovers. Despite all its problems, I still enjoyed the game. Skip it or wait for a deep discount if you are curious.

Hopefully the third game can finally deliver the experience this series deserves without all the problems.
