⚫The game adds in this amazing mechanic, COVER-BASED shootouts that made me feel like I was playing "Gears of War" for the first time again.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
48 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The story is amazing with fun puzzles and dense levels filled with quips, gags and goofs to go along with them!
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.

The Music is phenomenal, great graphics, good humor, runs basically flawlessly although I did have to keep setting my refresh rate to 144hz from 60hz every single time I either tabbed out of the game or closed it and loaded it back up, that was kinda annoying.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.

The game is a bit buggy in places, but really only impacts the collectathon in the open world; there's some tedious moments; and the source material is weak (the voice acting really displays some of the acting 'talent' in the film...), but it's enjoyable, not too slow, and the extras fill in the gaps, while making enough jokes to make the overall package worthwhile.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
14 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It's a Lego Star Wars game, it's a great one with the biggest character roster yet and some amazing editions, but it fails a lot in some areas, hopefully the Skywalker Saga fixes all the issues.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
14 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It's a big thing for me, I like the creator to include many body pieces and weapons and things so I can make my own hero or create a character they didn't add to the game.
