Surprised they didn't push this to a May 5th launch.

Any first impressions?

Original release date was supposed to be late 2020.....so guessing couldn't hang on much longer:)

Mine is still downloading...

I was hoping there was a Cinco de Mayo DLC for this!

The Mos Eisley Cantina DLC - Lego's version of Hot Coffee

It's Lego.  There is no plural.  Or if there is it's Lego bricks/pieces.

Probably be a good game though.

From what I've heard, Lego makes better Star Wars games than most licensed Star Wars devs.

I don't think Lego makes the games.

You're right, it's a small dev company and published by WB.

So far as expected, it's your typical Lego game...bunch of puzzles, some comedy, and pretty easy to play.  The big draw is playing out the movie scenes, which are enjoyable to me.  Completed the imperial boarding scene from new hope where the rebels attempted to stop the troopers in the hallway on the ship , ever since I saw the movie, always wanted to be part of that:). Of course simplistic view of it, but fun anyway.

Didn't expect game of the year for me, just a fun and simple romp through space...

Rogue 1 does that scene better

Maybe better, but the opening scene from new hope is a classic for me as when that played on the big screen, just   sucked me into the movie right from the start.

You started up the pedant in me :), Exactly what I was thinking. I just did not want to say anything. It's not uncommon though for people to use "Legos" instead of Lego. When explaining why Lego is the plural and not Legos it is probably good to use the analogy of much vs many. Many usually refers to a lot of of identical things that are sometimes found as single entities. For example apples. It's not uncommon to have one apple to eat at work while the fruit bowl at home has more stacked together. On the other hand flour is an example of much, you never have a single grain of flour. Additionally you only ever use flour together as more than one grain. Therefore flour is impossible to measure and is never considered on it's own and is always handed out or purchased as clump.

How many Apples (plural with an S because technically they are separate things)
How much Flour (plural with no S because technically it's one thing with only difference being size/weight)
How much Lego (plural with no S because technically it gets stuck together, is purchased together and is always found together to be stuck into clumps)
How many legos? You would almost never find lego pieces on their own. So it is considered a plural without an S. You don't ever get one piece of lego (think piece of cake cut off) out to play. Lego is generally considered in sets not as single pieces. We have pieces of cake because they came from a whole cake. Thus pieces of lego are considered part of the "much" category.

It is certainly pedantics. Something Greek philosophers might have argued about? Perhaps. Because at some point somebody obviously purchased a single piece of lego to start with, got a few more pieces and therefore logically had Legos!

When I am on youtube it often grates my ears to hear people use plural and non plural for the same thing in the same sentence actually. I am nuts enough to need to rearrange the sentence in my head to make it easier to understand and to prevent myself from falling into the same abyss and copying them. What I am trying to say is don't mind me. I am nuts.
