Like so many games nowadays this one released as an incomplete product. The first players were beta-testers on a road map which basically made the title unplayable after initial burnout. Now, close to two years later, this game is a treat worth playing.

Pros
+ Mission intro makes sense and the choice of path after seems very good.
+ The multiple modes enable an outlet from what could be a grinding pain.
+ The controls, visuals, and crafting are all good for a player with high expectations.

Cons
- The menus in-game are too busy or confusing in small ways.
- The AI is a little off but not game-breaking.
- Event scripting relating to mission interrupts immersion and feels tower defense-y.

All in all I am glad to have picked this up again after the obvious developer work.
I'd say this has a solid $30-40 USD value.

If you are looking to sit down and play with Lego in a virtual space then this is not for you.

Sandbox mode
- Has a clunky control scheme that is difficult to work.
- Does not contain all of the basic pieces.
- Too heavily relies on pre-built schematics.
- Has a nightmare menu system.

Adventure mode
- Might be fun for a child.

The effort it took to establish a level area using road tiles was enough to make me consider if the sale price was worth it. When I could not find most of the bow & arches in the actual bricks I decided to ask for a refund. I continue to have reasons for keeping my giant tub of the physical.

A delightful and thoughtful game with depth and breadth. The hype is justified in this title with dynamic gameplay and a wide range of activities that will almost make you lose the thread of the plot. An intriguing story which feels unique and compelling.

I beat it before Steam had achievements.
I beat it again before Steam tracked playtime.
I beat it on Xbox 360 and PS3 after.
I've beaten it again today and since that first time it is now starting to show it's age. A bit long in the tooth and a smidgen visually outdated, but, Half-Life 2 is still one of the greats and deserves a play-through just for the experience.

A polished hack-and-slash game with a decent story, good twists, and middling gameplay. Being that it's probably one of the few AAA singleplayer games I've beat in years there has to be something positive said about Jedi: Fallen Order. I found it interesting in the way that I found Rogue One superior to the rest of the movies. Standing outside the typical throes of Star Wars content it had enough mystique to keep me engaged until the end. I'd definitely suggest playing it or watching it but I won't be chasing down the extraneous achievements in it now that it's over. 7/10

This is a delightful little title that I found as a demo during the 'next fest' and I have been pleased with it as a relaxing collection of minigames which are blended to make a complete title. Easily worth $25 USD but possibly not worth more. Works best with a controller and is right at home on the steam deck.

Probably the best $15 USD I've spent in a while and I just had it completely flip the script on me. I'm not sure how my affair with this game will end but I don't see myself uninstalling it anytime soon.

Barely a game. It's not terrible but it's definitely not worth more than 10$ USD. The clunky gameplay is as slight as the story. People who call it relaxing are conflating DOOM with Journey.

A stylized story in a cyberpunk dystopia presented as a game where you don't really do anything and is kind of a bear to play. I failed to enjoy or be hooked by this game. Worth at most $5-10 USD in my opinion. I would've played quick enough to return it.

A slow, overwatch-like, dungeon crawler that really behaves like it has become outpaced by more modern titles. I would own it if I had young cousins or siblings to play with as it is rather benign. There is a threat that those in their formative years may become Furries from playing it.
