Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Launches To “Mostly Negative” Steam Reviews
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is finally out, but for those on PC, you might want to hold off on buying it right now. Already, it has a 'Mostly Negative' score on Steam with 1,023 reviews. Only 29 percent are positive.
The main reason for these negative reviews is performance - some cite CPU issues, inconsistent framerate, infinite loading, and crashes despite using high-end graphics cards and processors. No matter how beefy your rig, Jedi: Survivor is a mess on PC.

This isn't too surprising given that, before Jedi: Survivor even launched, developer Respawn promised "weeks" of fixes, setting off alarm bells immediately. Fans quickly flocked to the quote retweets and comments of the announcement to share their concerns, mostly fearing that the PC port would be in a bad state on launch.
"Game is extremely fun but performs terribly," one Steam user wrote in a 'Not Recommended' review with 1.2 hours on record. "I'm using a 3090 FE and 5700x and getting a consistent 30 fps in some areas. Other areas give me a mostly consistent 45. This is at 1440p. Lowering the settings and using FSR don't make a tiny bit of difference. And it goes up to like 19 GB of VRAM. It's a rad game but definitely wait unless you have 24 GB of VRAM and don't mind playing the game at 30 fps."
Another user simply wrote, "Runs like my ass after taco bell". Poetic.
It doesn't sound like a fun time on PC, but some players on Xbox and PlayStation are sharing similar stories. There are claims of bugs, stuttering, crashes, and other issues similar to the PC port, so regardless of your platform, you might run into problems until the bug fixes roll out.
It's probably best to wait before
