The whole idea of canon is really funny to me cause its like saying that some things didn't happen but that other things really didn't happen.

yeah its loving stupid but whats even worse is watching people whine because somehow somebody deciding a book isnt canon ruins their enjoyment of reading it loving nerds

Do most authors operate under a specific canon Like is the last tycoon an official part of the gatsbyverse or an elseworlds tale or what

If it makes enough money then maybe they'll continue the old EU and call it Star Wars Universe-77 and the new one is Star Wars Universe-15 and they'll do stupid poo poo like crossover events between the two universes. Bring in the worst aspect of comic books into the star wars universe.

Actually the fact that modern humans need to classify their fiction into the "real" fiction and the just-for-fun fiction is really interesting especially in respect to humans with regards to history and espectially biblical canon

Wolfsheim posted:Do most authors operate under a specific canon Sounds like a fantastic question to ask Stephen King. While a large portion of the Star Wars EU is quite ridiculous, I must confess that my friends and I are enjoying FFG's Star Wars RPG. That being said, the propensity of EU authors to attribute behaviors of a specific character in the movies to an entire species (all Rodians are bounty hunters because Greedo was, all Hutts are fat crime lords because Jabba was, all Sullustans are awesome pilots because Lando's co-pilot was a pilot, all four-armed guys from that Phantom Menace podracing scene are into podracing, etc. etc. ad infinitium ad nauseum) always vexed me, even as a child.

I always liked the jedi knight series, since Kyle Katarn was probably the most chill and down to earth jedi ever  He knew the force wasn't some PURE GOOD or PURE EVIL poo poo, it all depended on how it was used. Speaking of the starwars games, in KOTOR was there ever a reason to not dual wield or use a two hander?

There was a Duelist perk that gave you a bonus to attack and damage if you wielded a lightsaber in one hand with a free off-hand, but it was lackluster in comparison to the options you mentioned.

i always thought it was more fun using blasters and stuff in that game. lightsabers cheesed the combat too much there is one like super special sword though i think youre right, i think you get it in catacombs or something on the sith planet iirc

You can do more damage with a single blade IF you combine it with master speed, and the single blade pulls even further ahead if you use master flurry as well. Duelist also gives you defensive bonuses. If you want versatility, however, two blades are the best option. http://www.gamebanshee.com/starwarskotor/strategies/choosingweapons.php

My immersion! if clone wars is still canon then there's also that bald sith lady kicking around basically there was zero thought put into it and i think they've tried to retcon it to be a metaphorical rule of two or an honorarium or whatever btw i started watching the clone wars and it's mostly bad but i've legitimately enjoyed some of the episodes, i've become the very thing i started this thread to make fun of

The clone wars cartoon was pretty awesome, the CGI show turned me off by the middle of the first episode.
