Fallen Order is a decent game. Not a super immersive story in my opinion but overall it’s good, if a little railroaded. It kind of feels more like a disney production than a fleshed out game. I don’t remember being intimidated by anything for very long and mostly found certain enemies kind of annoying to fight. Although the Vader sequence at the end is simply great. Survivor in my personal opinion is much superior. The story is more engaging, the enemies vary more, the bosses are more dynamic, and they expanded just the right mechanics. They really figured out how to get you to choose your battles and it scales well with upgrades (although I did choose to fight until I beat a rancor at the very beginning that was clearly meant for mid to late game). It plays a lot like Stellar Blade if you tone down the anime stuff and tighten the combat to a looser Sekiro.

If you don’t mind skipping some story, you can go into Survivor and then treat Fallen Order like a prequel. And if story is a big factor for you, it’s worth just powering though.
