Not specifically SW: Outlaws, but they were given something that previously only EA made meh games with, and they decided to also make a meh game. Ubisoft really likes their meh games. See also: Assassin's Creed #25, coming out this year!

And even EA made some decent games with the IP. I loved Jedi Fallen Order. Haven’t played Jedi survivor yet but from what I’ve gathered, it’s definitely not a total flop and even Battlefront 2-2 was decent enough.

Jedi Survivor is awesome. If you liked the first you'll love that one.

Even outlaws isn't bad, it gives me Jedi Survivor feels but more stealth and crime.

I’ll definitely play Jedi Survivor (as soon as I get around to upgrading my graphics card to something that can actually play the game).

I might try outlaws once it’s on clearance or so. But as someone who hated most of what Ubisoft did in the last few years (they ruined my beloved Assassin‘s Creed and made a mockery out of Watch_Dogs), I will stay sceptical.

I loved Fallen Order and I loved Survivor even more. It's the perfect follow up to Fallen Order. At launch it had quite some issues tho, which is why it wasn't received well. Not sure how much better it is now since I never really had issues to begin with.
