I can't wait for this game, the first game was the only Soulslike game i could get into, it's not usually my game or genre but something about Jedi Fallen Order just clicked with me and i absolutely loved it :)

[@bigzachful]

Did you ever try Bloodborne?

[@James-gj8rn]

@@bigzachful yeah and thats closest I ever got to liking one

[@user-ud6ox4xf3n]

icant wait to i loved the first game

[@ATownMLH]

I absolutely can't wait for this game. Grew up a star wars fan and the original battlefront 1 & 2 were some of my favorites. The fantasy of being a jedi never gets old. I hope KOTOR that releases on PS5 later down the road does the same as well

[@d3mystic93]

"Think DMC with ginger Dante/Nero.".....Yes, please.

[@videobasil9575]

Loved the mix of combat and exploring in the original, so glad to see more of the latter in this. Interested to see just how open Koboh is. Thanks for video 👍👍

[@geraltrivia2124]

Game looks amazing, super hyped for this one!

[@neilscott7102]

You had me at rancor ❤

[@naelmohammed9551]

Only 6-7 days till I get my hands on this game, LETS GOOOOOO!

[@simnell]

My new favourite way to describe beards, “Trousers for the face” 😂😂 Well done Ash 😄

[@Pallysilverstar]

What I need to know is are there collectibles? Are they mostly lore and cosmetic as in the first one or more useful gameplay wise? and finally how hard are they to track? In the last game the collectibles were fairly useless with all the ponchos and only a handful providing a tangible benefit not to mention if you found one you couldn't reach or open early there was no way to mark it on the map. They tracked how many of each collectible there was in an area but gave no indication as to where they might be in the rather sizeable zones.

[@richardanderson9926]

This looks amazing so glad I pre-ordered

[@doomiag]

Only thing you need to know is the lightsaber finally got to grow up. The second I saw a trooper lose a limb I was back on board

[@ArthurCallahan389]

This was the top game I had in mind when I bought my PS5! I want it yesterday 😊

[@jamesedmison2768]

Can't wait to try the blaster stance

[@SideQuestDave]

I’ll be doing all the SIDEQUESTS lol

[@claytonfrag]

[@morbidmike]

Cant wait for my game to look as good on ps5 as it does on KZbin

[@neilclarkwork]

Wow. This is going to be amazing! You should do a BD1 Lego build livestream in celebration. Trust me, it’s a lot easier than the tallneck.

[@MorphMeep-mw7kb]

I want to pet the bogling.

[@cruddi4398]

I’ll be using mostly single and dual, reminds me of jedi academy back in the day… i suddenly feel old

[@LordBonesaw]

Anyone who doesn’t have a tv with hdmi 2.1 VRR etc go and get one, It makes a massive difference in gameplay

[@bigzachful]

Really?

[@ICE10000000]

As a classic DMC fanboy as soon as u said duel wield feels like Dante i was like "welp time to get SSSTYLISH wile i ride an alien chocobo"

[@annsopel]

FAST TRAVEL! YESSS!

[@rudikraus4405]

Do we have any other Jedi abilities? Faster run, higher jump… ?

[@edgonzales5411]

Still waiting for another star wars game with human dismemberment

How many journey slots are in Jedi survivor

[@MikeRKO316]

I saw the setup for "...come out the Rancor's #2 slot"... but it didn't happen :(

Hopefully it will run OK on PC. My Ps4 pro backlog + Persona 5 Royal Dynamic themes won't allow me to get PS5 for a while :D

No.40 : It's on Xbox and Pc

If Fallen Order had fast travel, I would’ve invested more time into it

I hope the hooded sith in the trailer is star killer

Why couldnt dave have done an opening scrawl😢

[@johnyoung5413]

Number 40, clear your hard drives cause the game is about 150 gb

[@MakoyUnggoy]

Yep, those file sizes are starting to ramp up these days!

[@Business101HQ]

I beg for the third game you're able to switch between 5 styles on the fly! Maybe you could do it by pressing R3 plus a D-pad to switch between 4 and then regular single blade is just up on the D-pad

[@Thedemonlord4642]

By the third game there may be more than 5 stances, likely a reverse grip stance and some original type of stance

[@Business101HQ]

@@Thedemonlord4642 that would be dope, but they could easily still make it work with 7 stances and that sorta stance change setup if they wanted! Would be insanely awesome if they made it so we could use different weapon styles (dual, double, single etc) but also switch between different lightsaber combat forms (Shii-cho, Ataru, Shien, Vaapad etc) Would be pretty unreasonable to expect that but it would be so fun!

[@Thedemonlord4642]

@@Business101HQ that would be amazing

[@jamin5417]

There better still be ponchos though

[@Insomniaaron]

Reason 1. It's Star Wars.

I'm glad I'm not in the devils Snake pit. God, thank You for another wonderful day and a game to looks forward to so I can matriculate my time wisely. 420 PS5 and no Snakes.

These are the 39 things that you will need to know if you want to make it as a Jedi survivor

This game easier this time though, cause the first was very tough.

I hope it’s not easier

[@Kovalov112]

The game is actually harder 😂

[@chavamara]

Not a single Chocobo reference. I'm disappointed, PSA.

[@Faydakin-xp7bk]

Or maybe think ezra from ghosts. Not everything has to link to ps games

[@videobasil9575]

I don't get this reference. What game is this?

[@macysondheim]

I don’t want to be forced to play as a redhead in the new Star Wars game…. 😑They have no souls. The pale skin is also distracting, & takes away from the games immersion as well. Bring create a character back plz. Ty very much 💤
