I actually do have fun playing this game, I'd just recommend the Complete Saga over this. 6/10

Just... wow. What this game was able to do with a LEGO game was incredible. The universe is massive and there's an incredible amount of stuff to do. It does justice to the films. The space sequences had no business being as fun as there were. The main complaints are the story missions are pretty short and few, especially if you compare it to the TCS game (eps 1-6), but IMO the side quests and bigger universe map more than makes up for it.

Objectively this is a vastly superior Lego Star Wars game with tons of content, new game mechanics and exploration of the galaxy potential, although it does miss the charm of the originals. Inclusion of the mumble is nice and can potentially scratch that nostalgia itch and there's a good amount of the good old Lego humour.

Some of the things I didn't like is that it feels more sanitized in a sense that all death scenes have been reworked to not feel like actual death scenes. Grand Moff Tarkin is not even a part of the story! Then astro-mechs can't fly anymore. Also my personal grudge is that considering they have like 400 characters in the game - they removed Garindan the imperial spy from the originals. He was one of my favorites! Also, having so many characters locked behind DLCs sucks, even if they are completely unnecessary to own. Lastly, one of the requirements for 100% completion is collecting 1300 kyber bricks across the galaxy. That is so much and so tedious, but maybe kids would love it as an incentive to play for as long as possible.

Overall, it's a good Lego Star Wars game, but I'm personally not a big fan of the direction they took. 8/10
