I played this briefly in my PS4 a little before I upgraded to the PS5, and now is when I actully played it. I was very excited for this game since I'm very nostalgic to the original Lego Star Wars games and I love Star Wars, and to see that they we're going all in for the biggest game Lego has ever made got me super hyped. Now that I finally played all the levels and did a bit of the open world stuff I'll say that... I really liked it overall, but not everything lived up to my expectations. For positives, the game looks stunning and Traveller's Tales certainly delivered their biggest game so far, with tons of big maps with a variety of iconic locations, and the amount of fan service and love for the material really shows. The gameplay is classic Lego gameplay as usual with a few additions and it's a fun time, the amount of collectibles to find is huge and whenever they managed to capture the films right it was great to see, especially because of how funny some of their parodies and jokes are.

But the thing is, for every positive in the game there's always something about that's lacking a bigger punch, and it holds it back from firing at all cilinders. The new gameplay additions are cool but they don't feel entirely polished, going on space with the ships is awesome but you could easily spot the limitations of it, seeing all the films and playing them is great but the levels feel rushed and could breathe some more, and the open world stuff to do gets repetitive after a while. I don't know if that's what happened, but it felt like they needed some extra time to complete the game and WB decided to settle with what they had and release the game as it was because jt was good enough. And while sure "The Skywalker Saga" is most certainly good enough and a solid game, I also think it could've been perfect if they went a little further with its own ideas. For fans of the Lego games or SW this is certainly worth your time and worth picking it up, and maybe TTs can use this base and improve it on their next game.
