    I absolutely cannot recommend Star Wars Jedi: Survivor (PC Review)

    From Skill Up on Twitter:

    I’ll have a Jedi Survivor review up later but right now I can say that it’s a great game that you should absolutely avoid if you’re playing on PC (for now, at least). The port is a total mess, namely awful FPS performance that cannot be improved through any settings changes 1/2

    It struggles to maintain 40 fps on a 2080ti/3700x and my 4090/5950x cannot maintain a solid 60 fps. There’s also a game breaking audio bug atm that ruins every cutscene. There’s a PC patch planned for the 28th. Recommend waiting until the impacts of that patch are confirmed.

    CPU and GPU utilisation almost never go above 30% on my 4090 machine. Very borked

      I tried to play the original Jedi Survivor game on top-end hardware and ended up returning it through Steam because no matter what I did, I would consistently get framerate stutters. I heard they never fixed this problem. I would not expect the PC port of the second game to be much better.

    There are more and more solid next-gen games coming out, and since Stadia died I think I'm going to have to finally bite the bullet and invest in a new console. I thoroughly enjoyed Fallen Order,...

    There are more and more solid next-gen games coming out, and since Stadia died I think I'm going to have to finally bite the bullet and invest in a new console. I thoroughly enjoyed Fallen Order, and the reviews I have seen of Survivor make it sound like more of the same, only better, which I am fully on board for!

      The PS5 w/ God of War: Ragnarok is $50 off right now. And the Series S is always an affordable option. I’m on Steam Deck/Series S right now and planning on adding the PS5 to the family here soon....

      My Stadia Refund more than covered both of those. In the end, it was a pretty great investment—three years of entertainment and a full refund by the end of it. I still do miss it though.

      If you liked Stadia I recommend getting an Xbox. Xcloud is showing great promise. Although you can play the same games with a PC and an Xbox controller.
