Reading around various sites, this is definitely splitting opinions. There seem to be two major camps: FPS fans and Star Wars fans. The FPS fans, whether also fans of sw or not, think it's dull and boring.
The Star Wars fans seem to enjoy it more as many have admitted they rarely play FPS games, so don't realise quite how far the bar has been set in recent years.
It's a shame really, but then I read somewhere on this forum a while ago that it'll be running the Frostbite engine, the same as BF4 and since then it's never felt right. I think I always suspected a blatant cash in from EA on a ridiculously famous and popular franchise.
