Bloodborne in space

The game tries to be several different things at the same time and does a pretty decent job.
So let's review them each of them on their own:

as a Soulslike:
Since you are a Jedi, you fight a lot of comparably weak opponents, eg Stormtroopers. Therefore the game usually throws a bunch of them at you at the same time. This works.

The soulslike is very accessible (a necessity for a game with such a wide focus), that includes difficulty settings. Those are not merely damage taken and dealt, but also a slider for how strict your timing needs to be. (I have not played Another Crabs' Treasure yet but all future Soulslike should copy at least that).

There is barely any "RPG" in it - there are upgrade points, but they are mostly tied to learning a few single moves or make a few of them a little stronger. New abilities are mostly learned by progressing through the game. You can upgrade your health and Force points, and can find more refillable healing items.

Dodging did not really work for me - you have a "small dodge", which often was not enough, and a roll dodge, for which you have to press the button price. Then you are too far away for a counter attack. Blocking/countering with the light sabre was more fun anyway.

as a Tombraider-like/3D-Metroidvania
You explore exotic planets, learn new things and access new areas. Many locations have to be visited at least twice, so you can use the new ways to access new areas.

There are very few puzzles included. Those are either rather easy or can be solved by just trying the things the game allows you to do. There is also a hint system (you can ask your robot for a hint), which I did not need.

The backtracking has been critized often, so I expected much worse. Yes, you have to go back after finishing whatever you came to do. In soulslike-fashion the paths somehow loop back, so it is usually not that far and sometimes the new shortcuts are fun themselves or you are chased while hurrying back. Sometimes it is unclear what is the best way. There is a map, which helps. (The sequel has quick travel.)

as a cineastic Star Wars spectacle
Lots of cameos, cross-references and what not to other Star Wars media, from Rebels to whatever the last trilogy was called.
Various types of stormtroopers, AT-STs and many more really fit well into the game.

There is a bunch of "videogamey" things, which do not mesh well with the setting. And I do not mean that you find in enemy bases parts you need to upgrade the robot, could not get in any other way (you have a spaceship), recognize in an instant and upgrade the robot while stormtropers are around the corner, which should be looking for him. This brings me to my biggest - although still very mild - gripe: Most places include a lot - and I mean really a lot - of bottomless pits. Everywhere, even inside villages and bases. And then you have a single storm trooper standing around on a floating island in the air, unclear how they could have gotten there without double jumping or jetpack. While 3 island further 5 more storm troopers are doing exactly the same. But as I said, it has to work as a video game, and that it does.

In regards of cineastic quality, it has in the beginning, the middle and the end very good scripted parts, and all the locations look very good, scenic and different.

The story is also good, the ending is coherent and makes sense, although it is without much fanfare. The inner conflicts of the characters are plausible and fitting, although lack on the narrative side.

Resume
As said, it does many different things, all at least decent.
So overall, it is a clear recommendation. It does not really excel in anything, but it does not have any weaknesses either.

games cool, plays great, graphics look amazing, but dont get if you arent into puzzle games. Plus the game is HORRIBLE on telling you where to go, even straight off the first planet if you go one way, you will be put against a giant frog boss you cant kill instead. if you go x or x you will just go in circles. Had to look it up and its apparently pretty common for others to be confused, and theirs a lot of puzzle ish annoying minigames you have to solve, which is just kinda stupid to advance on imho.
if you dont mind puzzle-type games in between or puzzle solving, then its a really good game, and the whole lack of direct routes to take, and having to figure it out on your own. I personally hate wasting x amount of time out of my day figuring out puzzles or routes on a combat based game, so i say not a recommend.
