King Vidiot: Feb 17, 2007; You think you can take me at Satan's Hollow? Go 'head on!

Inzombiac posted:

Yeah, it's claimed to be something that happens in game. I'd be very surprised if it did but I'm a jaded little poo poo.

I think that not only will it be in the game, but it will happen so rarely that it'll be a rumor like the bigfoot in San Andreas. And then a bunch of whiny manbabies will complain that they never encountered Darth Vader so they'll change the scripting so Vader shows up in every single map at least once, guaranteed. Then due to saturation the event will no longer be special and people will figure out a way to cheese the game and actually kill Darth Vader consistently.

Vader has never been particularly intimidating in games up until this point. He's been a cheap rear end in a top hat in games like SNES ESB, but this comes off as different.

Obviously the final product could be very different than these 2-second gifs, but it's still effective marketing.

If it works like battlefront 2, grenades and rockets should do the trick. Either that or smashing a fighter into him.

The reason he's so intimidating there is that you're no longer facing him as Luke or some other powerful Jedi (or even as a badass protagonist who doesn't have the force). You're just a nameless Rebellion soldier trying to fight him off with a blaster rifle and Vader Just Don't Give a gently caress. If you don't get away from Vader you're going to die, and he just keeps advancing on you like Death himself.

And you know the moment you turn away it'll be all *womwomwomwom* flying lightsaber cuts you in half, cause that's what your Star Wars PTSD nightmares are all about.

I appreciate that Battlefront gif because it satisfies my original annoyance of the first trailer of the "player" not immediately opening fire upon Vader upon his reveal.

Well, unlike real sex, you're not supposed to do this in public. This is just masturbation with an audience and a half willing participant.

Furthermore can Vader be killed if I lure him into the swamps of Dagobah and then toss a TV set in with him?

If you dual wielded 2 guns would Vader be able to deflect both shots?

He'd likely just use the force to take one away from you and slap you across the face with it.

I was also pretty surprised at how intimidating Vader is in this context. I don't think he's ever been portrayed quite like that, but he looks absolutely terrifying. Sadly it's probably just some cutscene-like scene where he does that and knocks you out and you wake up in a cell for the next mission.

Or the game does one of those multiple protagonist things and you're playing Private Imfucked and the game cuts to Corporal Totallycool afterwards.

hero characters will be playable, probably similar to how they were in battlefront 2 where it was the top palyer on the server or whatnot
