Lego Star Wars The Skywalker Saga!

I remember when this game had a rumored February 2020 release...

Should have the unofficial title "Skyber Brick 2077"

 

How orginal... anyways, I have morbid curiosity of what the game looked like in 2020; especially since it'll be two + years since Feb 2020.

 

Just making a joke man, yikes.

I'm sure the delays are for the best. I just with studios would communicate with more realistic release dates. And of course, it's almost certainly execs who pushed for the Feb 2020 rush, I'm sure the developers did their best to make sure the game is released in as good of a state as possible.

 

As someone who is a fan of the game of said joke, they get old fast. Anyways, but yeah I agree. 2021 saw so many delays.

 

Oh, I gotta get that!

 

A long time ahead in a galaxy far away, this game will eventually get a release. And then I'll be there...

 

You'll need rest, Master.

 

I’m hunting for that Deluxe Edition too, and even if and when I do find it, I won’t have access to my TV or console for most of the next month anyway. Still, I’m hoping to find it in store, I really want to have that Blue Milk Luke figure and the DLC without having to buy it separately. What luck, I’m probably one of the biggest Lego fans around here and I won’t really get to play for a while!

I would have had the game pre-ordered if it weren’t for the constant delays.

 

Just when u think the world has reached maximum-overdrive on all things stupid, rubbish like THIS appears in your in-box to reset the meter. Feel bad for you & your kid, nothing worse than letting them down.... especially when the fault lies outside of your control. Hope u can get a copy soon.

 

I'm having a great time with Lego Star Wars so far. It's clearly made with a ton of love for the source material, and it's really infectous. The humor works most of the time, and it feels good to just lean into a self indulgent love letter sometimes. So much energy is spent on criticising and analysing the saga at all times, but it's important to smell the roses too!

 

The Darth Maul ultra Lightsaber; in whatever version it was, is a solid gold rose.

 

I think that they are creating new character packs for the game like andor, kenobi, book of boba fett, and clone wars character packs

 

So I've been playing through LEGO games lately because we just had our first kid and I want to have some options for him to game with us when he gets older... and I'm really liking the Skywalker Saga so far!

My main experience with LEGO games is the very original Star Wars one, and I had some experience with the Complete Saga (though tbh, I always thought that game's take on the OT was pretty boring).

Then this summer, I played through the LEGO Marvel and Avengers games, which were cool. But man, I just really like this Skywalker Saga one. I know it sounds silly, especially for a person like me who games pretty regularly, but sometimes the puzzles in LEGO games can be pretty hard (or, at least it's hard to figure out what you're supposed to do or where to go in some areas). That's really not been an issue for me in this new game, though- it's just a fun time.

And tbh, I feel like this won't affect the replay-ability too much of the game, since a lot of the puzzles in older LEGO games are just kind of busy work anyway- once you figure out how to do it, it's just a bit of a slog to actually do the work to get it done.

So, I'm going through Episodes I-IX, and am on A New Hope right now, and am super excited to play this one with my kid some day. I think we'll watch the movies, then play the episode in LEGO after.

And yes... of course I'm getting way ahead of myself with this, considering he's a newborn. But man, I've been waiting to introduce my future kid to Star Wars for a long time now!
