CubanMissile posted:I’d rather see Cal Kestis show up up than Ezra. I haven’t seen most of Rebels, but Ezra was pretty lame in the parts I did catch. Also because I think Cameron Monaghan is a good actor and ponchos make sense to me as Jedi attire. Cal is Good, but I'm not sure why he's Better than Ezra and folks are Desperately Wanting him.

Cal was boring as poo poo, and I say that as someone who collected every single dumb poncho and lightsaber part in that game. He's just about as blank slate as game protagonists get.

Kyle Katarn is the character who most fits the aesthetic of the show. I'm really interested to see where they go with this because they clearly want to keep open the possibility that another Jedi character shows up, but Groku can't leave The Mandalorian because that's their show. They can probably avoid having that happen until season 3, but if that character punts on training as well it's going to start feeling contrived.

Basically I'll accept a de-aged Mark Hamill showing up, watching the 'take the ball' exercise, and saying "You've been teaching him all along Din, the force has put you together. Now have this literature I made up and good luck!"

Hmmm, I think the light cruiser would be an adequate replacement for the RC. Or maybe a Victory II Or the Chimera Whoever suggest mobile coven, that would be dope. How many Mandolorians are around following the old ways anyhow? You could probably crew an ISD with them Edit: what the gently caress, the retconned Victory II's look like a bag of assholes.

I got the impression that one of the reasons Leia stopped training as a Jedi was because she got pregnant, so he's likely not born yet. And who the gently caress named a character Yarael Poof? It sounds like a Jedi from Glasgow got drunk and started waving his lightsabre around.

Din: Yeah uhh... you go ahead and we'll meet you there.... Season 3 is Din and Grogu trying to hide from a super-nice but confused Luke who can't understand why he keeps missing them whenever he comes looking.

BrotherJayne posted:Hmmm, I think the light cruiser would be an adequate replacement for the RC. drat, this is making me miss the funtimes of some EU stories that would focus on a ship and take you through most of the crew, or the time where a pretty chill rich guy bought a straight-up Imperial Star Destroyer, painted it red because it was cheaper than painting it white (or they didn't have enough white paint), and turned it into a casino, getting along the permits/regulations and such by giving it like two turbolasers total. I'd enjoy seeing Mando rolling around with a proper crew, and I think that would help change up the formula of the show and keep it from getting stale. Thinking about it more, getting the full fanservice treatment by having Luke show up is still my #1 preference, but it'd be fun to see a brand new Jedi we haven't known about before (probably another Order 66 survivor) pop into the show, and then have that character develop just on the Mandalorian without relying on cool material from other shows/comics/books/whatever. There's still so few confirmed Jedi survivors from that time period that there's plenty of cool character archetypes/motivations that could come up. Or if they want to bring in an EU Jedi, they could have C'boath show up and that'd be a hint to the EU fans about what that character's backstory/motivations may be.

Booster Terrik wasn’t rich iirc, he was just an underworld guy who requested ownership of the star destroyer as a condition of helping the new republic neutralize it. Painting it red was a goddamn pain too, but the new republic made him do it years later because they were goddamned tired of people making GBS threads their pants when a star destroyer suddenly turned up and wanted it easily recognizable

Fair enough, I'm relying on some pretty old memories here. It's fairer to say that Booster was "I have a giant spaceship" rich, but the thing really wasn't worth it due to the maintenance costs and such, and he was probably just keeping his head above water on it. That's a more accurate way to look at it. Still, with so many flat broke Star Wars characters out there, he was a guy who was sole owner of a very valuable asset, so while he wasn't "Queen of Naboo" rich or anything he came across as plenty wealthy to me. I've got fond memories of the character from when they popped up in Rogue Squadron books and because I liked I, Jedi quite a bit. In that a cool fighter pilot basically goes on a path of Jedi self-discovery and training to rescue his wife Mirax, who was Booster's daughter. It gets a strong recommendation from me as a fun EU book to check out from WAY before the EU got too crazy. It had fun ideas like "What if all Jedi aren't good at force things like telekenesis, but had unique powers/abilities in a kind of "X-men" kind of way?"

Galaga Galaxian posted:Grats on adding an extra zero? Because the other guy sucked at explaining and you suck at basic maths apparently: 10,000 x 0.01 is 1% of 10,000, which is 100. Your original statement was that if even '0.01% of 10,000 Jedi survived you would have 100 Jedi', which is wrong. To get 0.01% you have to divide 10,000 by 100 twice, which gets you 1, or multiply it by 0.0001. Butterfly Valley fucked around with this message at 12:20 on Dec 5, 2020 |

He's just about as blank slate as game protagonists get. Yeah I came to post this. I played through 95% of Fallen Order before my Redbox rental ran out and he is literally devoid of personality. there is not a single moment in the game where you would get a sense of who he is or what he wants or his relationship to the force or anything even remotely interesting about him at all. Like mechanically he’s the master of three distinct Jedi light saber fighting styles and we don’t even get an explanation as to how or why he’s so skilled. He’s just a perfect Jedi Mary Sue white male protagonist without a hint of pathos. Bust Rodd fucked around with this message at 13:46 on Dec 5, 2020 |

I'm glad and also sad to see that my initial aversion to fallen order because of it having the most boring young white male protag that we've seen a million times in both other games and also a lot of star wars eu stuff was entirely justified because some people sat around in a room and actually designed him that way Obviously gently caress the toxic communities online that they pandered to but also gently caress them for pandering and gently caress the EA overlords for I imagine leaning on them to do so I still wanna play the game though based on the reviews of it being a fun soulsmania mashup, so gently caress me too I guess

If you want to play it, wait for the sequel in a year or two. It’s simply too janky for me to recommend, and it’s stuffed to bursting with collectibles but the collectibles are just pallet swaps and don’t change or impact gameplay whatsoever. It’s also an insanely buggy mess. Also, I’m not normally someone for whom a characters identity really bothers me, in 99% of cases, but making a new Star Wars game about a white man in 2019, with literally an infinite galaxy of races and genders to choose from, was fuckin INSANE
