So I played Chorus, which is a fast paced space fighter sim, right before this. I had so much fun with Chorus that I wanted to play another space fighter sim. And while I am a huge Star Wars fan and have lots of nostalgia for the old X-Wing games, Chorus just really outshined this game for me. I also encountered a few mission bugs that required me to restart missions and when missions take 20-30 minutes each, that was just painful. And so I put it down and decided I'm probably done. Played about 6 hours. This is not a BAD game. It definitely captures the nostalgia I wanted, but it just wasn't as fun as I was hoping.

Slow space fighter sim combat

As with a good handleful of EA's titles theres something missing, the big bang that sticks everything together ... no its not vr. It needs more attention the story is ok, the graphics sometimes look great other times gives me ptsd flashbacks of cyberpunk. But it just needs some good old treatment to be a good title.

Needs Something

I played this game using my logitech extreme 3D flight stick and paired this with my Oculus Quest 2. It was awesome! The experience is so much fun! The gameplay is really that unique and hey it's star wars you know. The level of immersion I got of this game is way too insane. I loved it so much. Although quite honestly, the story of campaign mode is the thing I don't really get much. I focused on the gameplay and graphics themselves.

Best Space Flight Experience

It is an okay game for me as I don't like ace combat kind of games. The plane is always in cockpit view, which I didn't liked. While playing on an ultrawide screen will surely be an immersive experience in this game.
