Yeah I don't really get all the hate. Is it the greatest game ever? No not even a little. Is it good though? Yeah I think so. The combat isn't all that deep but I'm mostly enjoying it for the writing and world building. It also helps that it's a gorgeous game.

That being said I can't see paying full price for it. I subscribed to ubisoft + for it and plan on canceling once I'm done with it. Playing it that way makes it cheaper than a ticket to the movies but for way more hours of pretty star wars locales.
