After 5 hours of exploring the galaxy Star Wars Outlaws is finally winning me over (pcgamer)

Ubisoft flipped that SGF demo on its head at a dedicated Star Wars Outlaws preview event held earlier this month in Orange County. No on-screen timers, no segmented missions—I played nearly five hours of Outlaws, and a good chunk of that time was spent chatting up NPCs, taking on side jobs from factions that all hate each other, and full-sending Kay’s speeder off the biggest rock ramps I could find on Toshara, a planet of deep canyons and desert brush where the opening hours take place.

My complaints about unchallenging shootouts, stiff climbing, and dumb Stormtrooper AI haven’t changed, but I learned that Outlaws shares a notable quality with other Ubisoft open world games: no one aspect is exceptional, but when it all comes together, I’m having a really good time.
