This game really did not live up to expectations. The only reason to play this game is to just better understand the story of the brilliant swtor. I have no tolerance for games that waste your time and this game is a master at that. Way too many boring repetitive main missions, way too much running around empty maps back and forth on another pointless fetch quest, way too many copy pasted corridors and the gameplay is nowhere near strong enough to support this game for its run time. If this game were like 12-15 hours it would have been good but at 24 hours it is insane.
The best part about this game is clearly the story and the lore contributions it makes to the sw universe. The old Republic era is my favourite time period in star wars and I am glad it is no longer cannon because that means Disney can't ruin it. Infinite Empire, star forge, mandalorian wars, Reevan and Malak all of these are great and worth learning about I am just not convinced this game is the best way to do that. Honestly just read a wiki entry on these and skip this game.
The main issue is that the gameplay is just not strong enough to support this game through its runtime. Everything is copy pasted, combat is mind numbing, all quests are fetch quests, half the lines are not voiced. Progression amd skills are bad qhen they work and when they dont work most of the systems are broken anyway. Glitches galore. Broken quests and soft locks. Nothing of this holds up.
It is worth highlighting that the game is entirely playable right out of the box on modern system without any need for technical wizardry.
Overall the game is very weak as a game but as a lore study and as a decent story it is definitely worth at least watching the cutscenes of
