Top reactions and controversies

A trailer so real it's mistaken for a movie

Dominant take
25 %

Since the reveal, most comments marvel at the trailer's photorealism — many thought they were watching a movie until they read the comments. This theme has dominated discussion since 2021 and resurfaces whenever the video goes viral again.

« The most impressive CGI I've seen in a cinematic trailer, some parts straight up look live action. »

Quantic Dream storytelling or real gameplay?

Controversy
20 %

Quantic Dream (Detroit, Heavy Rain) splits opinion: some expect a cinematic, choice-driven narrative in the studio's usual style, others fear a QTE-heavy game with little real freedom and want character creation or an open world.

Endless wait: hope or giving up?

Controversy
20 %

With years of silence, rumors of internal turmoil, strikes, and a possible live-service pivot, the community splits between those still hoping ('as long as it's not cancelled') and those who already assume the game is dead or doomed.

The iconic score: drums and Duel of the Fates echoes

Dominant take
12 %

The score — epic drumming with 'Duel of the Fates' echoes — keeps coming up as the absolute highlight, often praised even before the visuals. A near-unanimous consensus since the very first viewing.

« The drumming sequences and the city street scene looked so freaking good that I thought it was live action on my first watch but the best thing by far is the music, it's SO GOOD! »

The relief of 'finally, no EA'

Dominant take
8 %

A recurring sense of relief runs through the corpus: the license is no longer EA-exclusive. This comes up as a symbolic win, often slipped into a single line even in comments focused on something else.

« It's great to finally see a Star Wars Game that isn't being published by EA (with the exception of Fallen Order, that was good). »
