Making her way through a dead Sarlacc to get a pristine Sarlacc tooth, Kay is ambushed and her prize stolen. She chases after the thief and retrieves the tooth she needs to pay the Jawas to install a turret on her ship.<\/p>\n<p><noscript><iframe title=\"Star Wars Outlaws: 10 Minutes of Exclusive Gameplay - IGN First\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/U-M1Lu6iVhg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p>The reaction across several different platforms has been critical of both the graphics and the gameplay. The negative sentiment about the graphics has been so bad that IGN has pinned a comment on YouTube advising views to ensure the video is playing in high quality rather than defaulting to 420p.<\/p>\n<p>However, even after issuing this warning, people remain largely unimpressed. \u201cMy video settings say \u2018quality,\u2019 so it must be something else\u2026\u201d\u00a0 said one skeptical viewer. \u201cSo we\u2019re gonna ignore the frame drops and San Andreas-like explosions?\u201d queries another. Another user cut straight to the point: \u201cLooks like an alpha version that needs at least a year to be polished.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As well as the graphics, people are skeptical about the gameplay itself. \u201cVery wrong for them to showcase a fetch quest,\u201d said one user. One on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/Games\/comments\/1e5lzpp\/star_wars_outlaws_10_minutes_of_exclusive\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a Reddit thread discussing the video<\/a> said \u201cThat was holy.. painstakingly awful, the sequence of events. meme quality.\u201d Another user was concerned about what this choice of preview says about the rest of the game, \u201cThis looks so dull. Can\u2019t believe this is the 10 minutes they chose to market their game\u2026how boring and slow is the rest of it??\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Will there be a Star Wars Outlaws delay? Ubisoft responds to the criticism<\/h2>\n<p>The backlash was so bad it made it to Ubisoft via a Bank of America analyst, who raised the issue during a <a href=\"https:\/\/edge.media-server.com\/mmc\/p\/atyzrozr\/\">conference Q&amp;A call<\/a>. The analyst asked if the response would trigger the studio to delay the release of the game, but chief financial officer Frederick Duguet had a firm response: \u201cThe game has gone gold, so the date is well confirmed for August 30.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He added, \u201cWe\u2019ll shortly be seeing more content of very high quality and multiple hours that will really show the depths of the open world that is a key element of the promise to enjoy the exploration of the galaxy with multiple planets, so that should bode well for the game in terms of high-quality delivery.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The CEO, Yves Guillemot, also chimed in: \u201cAs we\u2019ve said also for Star Wars, the level of quality of the world and the experience is really very high. We are really leveraging our engine, and I think people will love it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Star Wars Outlaws will be released on August 30.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>[ad_2]<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/readwrite.com\/no-star-wars-outlaws-delay-despite-lukewarm-reaction-to-gameplay-footage\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[ad_1] Ubisoft is gearing up for the release of Star Wars Outlaws and recently released a ten-minute gameplay video.
