10 Things Lego Star Wars Players HATE

I hate that they took away the astromech droids’ glide. That was a core part of R2-D2‘s move set in the prior games and they just said “no, you can’t do that anymore.”

I wish there were more enemies in open world. Such as random encounters on ground. Like imperials harassing civilians or a small faction battle and you choose who to help. Or even better a wanted level like in DC supervillians. I wish there were more enemies. Also I miss Garindan the Imperial Spy 😢

I remember being really disappointed that npcs don’t fight back when you attack them. Some of the most fun I had in the complete saga was starting fights in the cantina

The opening cutscene with Rey, saying “I need someone to show me my place in all this.” This should have been Anakin. You know the main character of Star Wars

One huge thing I was bummed by is big movie scenes like the battle over coruscant and 2nd Death Star that you don’t get to play. I feel like the only cinematic space battle you fight is the trench run

Literally everything said in here were my exact thoughts, but what I REALLY hated was the fact that the jetpacks are literally useless in this game, you'd expect it to actually work to get you around such an expansive world and yet you just get a double jump that let's you float a bit and that's it.

What I actually wish for the DLCs was that they could also have a story. Like if you got the Obi-Wan Kenobi DLC you can play the Obi-Wan Kenobi series in the Skywalker Saga. Or if you got the Mandalorian DLC you can play Lego episodes of the Mandalorian. I just wish that the DLCs had a story mode.

Being forced to change characters in Free Play, not being able to replay side-missions, and no character customization are definitely my biggest issues with this game. I also really hate how little combat there is in the open world; I can walk around dark side locations like Geonosis or the Death Star and just not have any of the Battle Droids or Stormtroopers attack me, even if I'm playing as Luke Skywalker. That is ridiculous.

"I need someone to show me my place in all this." I've heard it so many times... just a few new lines that randomly change would be nice.

This is VERY nit-picky but in the original complete saga, I loved the fact that in Obi-Wan and Anakin’s duel, you could play as both and fight each other and I hate that it didn’t get adapted into the new game

I really liked that part in the story where they initiated Order 66, and enemy clone troopers appeared to attack you in the open world... wish they coulda had more of that, I found it so cool for some reason.

Not something I hate, but more something I miss are the sort of large scale Ground Battles from Lego Star Wars III. I would’ve loved to have a game mode where I could lead an Imperial assault as Darth Vader against the First Order or Separatists, or even just the Rebels, it would’ve been so much fun. I loved the back and forth and progression in those levels, and it felt challenging in the right ways

I've mentioned this under a previous one of your videos, butt I WISH that the npc's would retaliate when you attack them. It would make the open world feel so much more alive!

Planets need more life tbh, hostile NPCs, random fights like the ones in space, and characters you've unlocked roaming around starting fights. That would get me hooked again for sure.

I thought I was the only one fumbling through character selection 😂 My biggest peeve was short missions and lack of flying missions. They left out so many key battles.

I was so disappointed when I found out there was no customization. I only realized once I had an idea to make a protocol but with all of Darth Maul’s pieces so I can play as him split in half. Then I googled where it was and was sad

My biggest problem with the game was it lacked the charm of a lego game. Nothing about this game justifies the need for it to be lego. Theres only a handful of instances in this game where you break an object and rebuild it into something fun and creative. I think back to the first level of a new hope in LSW2 and how there was an entire area where you could build a car by growing and destorying plants just for the sake of it being fun.

i think the character customization is really whats missing, its in almost every single lego game, and now they just deleted it, umph.. the dlcs are good but we definitely miss clone wars maybe rebels, but also Cal Kestis would've been great (even tho its very unlikely)

One thing I don't like is that the astromechs (aside from the BB units) can no longer hover (which is kind of a trade off for being able to do damage and use grapple points) and one thing I like is that the protocol droids are no longer a burden, they move quicker, can jump, and can fight as well as split into 2 completely controllable pieces, no longer do they move at a snail's pace

My first real experience with Star Wars was playing LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga with my older brother on the Wii in like 2008 when I was 9. My brother now has a son, and both of us thought it would be neat if we introduced him to Star Wars via LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga. However, after having seen how disappointing the couch co-op frequently is in TSS, that idea quickly dissolved and we now intend to just play TCS with him instead. I mostly play games solo, so the disappointing co-op isn't that big of a negative for me, but the fact that it ruined a dream that my brother and I had really hurts. (I mean COME ON, I genuinely feel bad for whoever has to be player 2 during The High Ground...)
