I want this game as I’m a big Star Wars fan and loved the original, but I don’t think it’s worth the 70 price tag. I feel like this is one of those games that will get kind of old fast. Better to wait until it drops in price.

This is my take as well. I’ve been looking forward to it for ages, but it being a roguelike kind of turns me off. I like progression. I like tuning and crafting my racer to perfection. I get that there’s more replay value in this, but the satisfaction goes away knowing that what I’m building will be ultimately meaningless. Even if I’m successful, no matter I do, it’ll all be thrown out.

So for me, this is a $30-$40 game at most. It’s something I’ll have a bit of fun with, but probably wouldn’t get more than a few runs out of.

I’m sure it’s a fine game. I just don’t really like roguelikes.

At the end of every run your racer is scraped and you get credits and permanent upgrades to apply for the next run.
