sassassin posted:Star Wars would be more accurately named 'The Bad Guy Wasn't So Bad After All... Wars (even Palpatine made some good points)' I dunno, even without the clouded innocence of youth, the guy shooting lightning out of his fingertips seems like a shithead. Except the Sith Inquisitor. He/she is delightful.

Palpatine is probably the only truly irredeemable person in Star Wars and that's because he's Literally Space Satan just about.

Cythereal posted:Ashara's fall to the dark side happens *after* her recruitment, not beforehand like Jaesa. Ashara joins you because she kind of hated being a Jedi, has nowhere else to go, and if you're threatening she's terrified of you. Her character and what she's doing on your ship only fill in after she joins the party. If you choose the dark side options, you brainwash her with a Sith holocron, and then you electrocute her until she agrees to join your side. Twice.

So I just waded through the lv 36 Boarding Party and Foundry flashpoints by myself to see the little bits of story, and was a little puzzled I didn't have a proper debrief, or why they were marked as unessential quests. Turns out the big purple triangle I was saving for later lead to the exact same missions with an actual reward at the end.

Both the Pierce and Qyzen quests are making me hate this game again, like I know I don't have to do them but the compulsion of having them in my alliance screen is overwhelming and yet they totally suck

I finally settled on a character to take through the expansions and to KotFE (Sith Inquisitor). However, the only planetary questline I did was the one for Corellia. Are they still available after the point of no return when starting KotFE? And if not, is there any reason I might regret not doing them?

Iron Tusk posted:I like Ashara's result better as she figures out a synthesis of the two philosophies. "Come to the dark side, young one." "So you're saying that I can use power and passion to help and protect people?" "...um, yes, that is exactly what I said. No watch me pump people full of lightning." "Cool beans!"

I often times forget that character exists. That or I was just thinking of the movies. One or the other. Or maybe I just want to forget he exists because he's the dumbest and most fanfiction-y thing in SWTOR. It saddens me that we'll probably never be rid of him.

Aphrodite posted:I know you have to think that or you've wasted your life, but no. George Lucas made it his mission to remove any nuance. It's all as black and white as it gets. I don't remember any of this from the films. The only thing Lucas has actually "removed" nuance from is the Light/Dark side stuff, where the literal plot of 2/3rds of the OT says that while it's not okay to use the dark side (watch yourself Kyle Katarn), you can always come back to the light. There is still good in him.

Knowing the EU there's probably a whole book that reveals when Tarkin said 'You may fire when ready', what he actually meant was 'fire if you want', and is conflicted about his poor choice of words (while having to keep up professional appearances). Then at Yavin in that last shot of him he's actually thinking 'Oh poo poo I said it again, didn't I?'

So I hosed up, bought and used a Level 60 token without knowing the character is created having already gone through the storyline. At this point would it still be possible to get a refund on it or is it gone and I should accept my dumb fate?

Tarkin in the movie is a smart, calculating villain whose fatal flaw is underestimating his enemies - and even then, he came within moments of winning if not for the Force.

One of the things I'm enjoying the most about Sith Inquisitor, is that you use your ship's Intercom much more than you use your Holoterminal. Besides the interaction with your companions being more interesting than just listening to whoever is your latest puppeteer, it gives me a greater feeling of agency. Like I'm not as much a lackey doing someone else's bidding. It also really made me wish for more inter party banter. Is any other class like this? I already know that... Smuggler, SW, BH and Agent aren't.

On a side note, irl friends [ughu] are insisting we play republic for a bit which is fine as I forced them to transfer to JC. Are there any large but kinda rad guilds on pubbie side anyone can vouch for?

I should stop doing this GSF daily. I want to like it, and sometimes I do, but it seems that most of the time I just get totally wrecked. It is a letdown. Edit: And just after I post this I get into a fun match that I lost but was nevertheless pretty close. Fargin Icehole posted:The counterpart, Consular has about the same intercom usage around act 2.
