Atris, at the end of the day, is mostly bitter toward one single person. These warped feelings eventually took a darker turn that affected the Jedi Order, but she didn't exactly harbor ill will toward the Order, she just thought she was the only one who could save it.
Self-identified Femcels and Incels, while differing in several ways and usually having different beliefs, tend to have a single idea in common: life is not only unfair, it is *rigged.* Specifically, rigged against them.
This much better describes Kreia, who is not bitter toward any single person, but is angry about the entire universe. She has become so obsessed with the idea that the game is rigged that she wants to flip the table and end it for good.
>>
>>743318718
The high road with occasional pragmatic diversions is the ideal path, she was just wrapped up in self-centered fence sitting.
>>
>>743318983
Good point. Not denying anything you said, but can Kreia's seething really be called femcel-ism in that case? I mean, you yourself are saying there's much more to her failures, why narrow it down to the term that's associated with sexual frustration. Why not call her something else.

I'll admit that I was mostly just trying to start an argument, but since I've started I'll keep going.
Another part of cel-ism is the idea that "its not my fault, my life is shit because of [insert designated group here]"
When is the last time that you can recall Kreia taking accountability for her actions?
>its not my fault my students keep becoming little shits, they did that on their own
>its not my fault the Jedi kicked me out, they were just too narrow minded for my teachings
>its not my fault the Sith back stabbed me and sent me away, they were just stupid dicks
>you know whose fault it is? the fucking force, that's who
Memes aside, I cannot tie any of this into sexual frustration (maybe she would have been happier if she settled down with that Echani soldier and raised the hand maiden?), so femcel still would not be accurate. Bitter Old Hag is probably the best description.

Worse characters were given a chance at redemption in Kotor 2 (Tobin comes to mind), but Atris was denied hers, I wonder why. Was the reason as simple as dev crunch and story cuts.

>>
>>743320059
I replayed KOTOR2 recently and was struck by how tragic she was. Even in a good run and you forgive her, she goes right back to talking to the Sith holocrons. What really got to me was how the holocrons responded; how bad does your life have to be that the ancient Sith spirits/minds/whatever are genuinely sympathetic and have a quasi pep talk with you after your ambitions and plans fall to waste? They even ask her if she told the Exile how she really felt.
>Was the reason as simple as dev crunch and story cuts
We'll never know. Just like we'll never know what KOTOR3 made by peak Obsidian would have looked like.
>>
>>743319895
>Bitter Old Hag
That works. But I have an entirely different line of thinking for you. What if Kreia, just like other girls, was in love with the Exile, or with his force bond vortex, and her force teleology and intelligent design ramblings were simply an old hag rationalization of that love? It all gets a bit recursive and messy - the force makes her love and dealing with her feelings she decides the force is responsible for her love and consequently for everything else - but it's an interesting though to entertain.
>>
>>743316946
>Genuinely, what the fuck was her problem?
Bitter old hag that was spited by both Orders and sought to destroy them both, to prepare the galaxy and the inevitable Nu-Jedi spawned by the Exile for the war with the Sith. She was playing a role to get back at both Jedi and Sith for betraying her.
>>743318491
>>harbor feelings for a close colleague, ones you cannot act on due to your orders tenets
ATRIS was the one who preached that Marriage and Love within the Order should be forbidden,
she betrayed HERSELF. Do not blame the Jedi.

The Sith holocrons latched onto Atris not entirely subdued passion and fed into it. But could Atris's fall be avoided if she wasn't as lonely as she was and someone else to share her thoughts and feelings with? The loneliness is another aspect of her tragedy.
>>
>>743321151
Atris literally made her own bed and laid in it. The Jedi of her time were cowards and idiots, but she was one of the bigger cowards and an even bigger idiot.
Nothing could've prevented her fall because she was too afraid to confront the truth.
>>
>>743320721
I think that Kreia did love the exile, not romantically, as much as one may joke, but something closer to a favorite student, or like a mother and her child. Hell, Sion seemed to think so
>I will bring his corpse to her, cast it at her feet. It will be as if killing her children. I will kill all she protects, all she shields, until her hands are drenched in blood
Not to mention how she says she would have burned down the galaxy for you, among other things.
>>743320836
Funny enough, if we go by the comics lore that kind of inspired the KOTOR games, the Jedi ban on romance wasn't in place yet. So she kept her feelings quiet even when she didn't need to.
>>743321151
Alternatively, maybe her fall began before she even set eyes on a Sith holocron. To fall is such a quiet thing, after all. but far worse is to admit it
>>
>>743316946
Both the Sith and Jedi are fundamentally flawed and she's mad about it and taking it out on god.

I firmly believe Kreia wasn't actually stupid enough to think killing the Force was possible, let alone a good idea.

The Force is objectively evil and cosmic horror tier shit. Everyone is enslaved by it and nothing can be done to stop its will. You are expected to abide by what it demands as balance even if it means everyone dies by it. You dont even get super powers 99% of the time. Only the Chosen get those. If youre some backwater shitter youre still going to die at its whim to resolve some cosmic equation it enforces through its army of sexually repressed dorks in robes who will cut your arms and legs and head off if you try to stop it.

>>743322071
Im sure that mattered a lot to Uncle Ben when the Force decided it was time for Luke to be a man and he and his wife were turned into Halloween skeletons. Hey, at least the will of the force was satisfied.

That wasn't done by force sensitive people though. Stormtroopers did it because they are bad people, and that in turn fuels the dark side.

>>743321803
>Though she failed utterly going by the MMO and prequels
She arguably didn't even fall, the MMO Jedi and beyond needed to be warriors to hold off the Sith and they succeeded greatly in that, driving them to near-extinction.
The Prequels Jedi were tangled up in politics and being Senate lapdogs, but that doesn't mean that they weren't extremely close to actually putting the kaboosh on this millennia long war between Jedi and Sith - the Jedi post-Kreia were actually very much accomplishing Kreia's desire of seeing this endless War between Jedi and Sith come to a close--and Luke's Order in Legends would've made Kreia wet herself and swoon.

Fair. It's mostly just that the order is repeatedly shown as still being pretty flawed. Though I guess that's unavoidable no matter how hard you try.

>and Luke's Order in Legends would've made Kreia wet herself and swoon.
At the same time, I'm sure she's very happy she doesn't exist in Disney canon.

I don't understand how people still think this nonsense, it's fundamentally at odds with the setting lmfao
Free will and the Force's "Will" co-exist, Free Will is what even allows Sith to be a thing because Sith are defined by their desire to completely dominate and control the Force's Will, like a resource or a beast of burden.
>>
>>743322840
It's important in the sense that you need to understand that only a few years prior there was a huge war that split the Jedi Order into pieces and is directly responsible for everything that happens in 2's plot but strictly speaking, no. 2 explains the pertinent points well enough. The specifics of what happened in 1 don't matter, only the setup to what caused 1.

Kinda. The game really loves to reference Revan and his exploits, but also at the same time recontextualizes a lot of characters and events from KOTOR 1.
Also, it's fun to see how differently Obsidian interpreted some characters from the previous game, like HK47. In KOTOR 1, he was just a funny murderdroid and every conversation with him was about how he killed his previous owner in a whole chain of owners.
In KOTOR 2, he essentially becomes the mouth of Revan and is much more ponderous and philosophical.

All you need is Awareness and Persuade. Have a scoundrel/sentinel party member with 16+ int max out every single other skill.

Class doesn't matter anyway since after level 8 or so you basically have infinite defense and force points and can steamroll the game with just the MC on difficult.

>>743323230
It was such a good twist, though. I knew it was coming and I was still impressed.
>>
Problem: The Sith in Deep Space are powerful and will run circles around the Republic
Revan's Solution: Conquer the Jedi and the Republic by extension and make them warmongers, essentially turning them into Dark Jedi
Atris' Solution: Use the Jedi as bait to lure out the Sith and then kill them (???)
Kreia's Solution: Kill all the Cowardly Jedi and train one Jedi who could survive without the Force into the next Grandmaster
Old Republic Jedi were utterly mindbroken by the mere THOUGHT of the Sith kek
>>
>>743323853
I have a soft spot for the Last Jedi but the story is a complete mess and when it comes to actual plotting and dialogue the movie feels like a very poor first draft.

Kotor 2 has plenty of problems, and is very unfinished, but it does do a better job of actually deconstructing Star Wars on top of actually having a decent plot. It helps that it was going off a much better rehash of the original trilogy in Kotor 1, but still.
>>

johnson deconstructed it because he's a petty, spiteful little man who broke his toy as a child because he's a retard

unfortunately that was a shitty idea that got an entire planet and the majority of the jedi killed for no reason because she did nothing with the information she gained
i think kreia just wanted to clean house with the order, the old masters were too unwilling to adapt to the changing situation and would happily destroy any chance of success that came their way because they personally didn't like it

>>743324130
It's true, but in order to get the story right, Avellone read a shitton of SW novels, so that he actually knows what the fuck he's deconstructing. And eventually he did grew to appreciate Star Wars if only because he got hooked.

KOTOR 2.
To do a deconstruction you have to understand something, love it even.
Meanwhile to smear shit on it and go 'Harhar, me am the big brain, can tell by shape of head!' you don't have to understand anything.
>>
>>743324135
Yes and no. The "canon" way is actually impossible to achieve in game without mods or cheats. Exile was canonically a female... that was travelling with Brianna for one.
>>
>>743324691
>love it even
Which is funny, because Avellone didn't even like Star Wars. But he was actually determined to understand Star Wars, so that he can write a good, deconstructive story in the setting.
That's a very professional approach.
>>
>>743324094
My cope is that they probably had those uber powerful "True Sith" are the start of the War but they slowly got whittled down by the Republic knowing that if they send a strike team in to kill the 'Massively powerful Sith Lord' entire swathes of the Empire get instantly routed. Couple that in with the Sith actively betraying one another and getting redeemed by Jedi Saars and you have an almost entirely non-functional Empire that can only strike at the Republic for about 4 years before all the 'True Sith' are dead.

star wars is loosely based on real life space wars and space politics hundreds of millions of years ago as all religions and cultures are eventually talking about in their stories. i've only watched like two star wars films and i don't know the whole story, but women making entire planets destroyed was a thing.
abraxas (demiuge's son working within the orion empire) became huge and took control of all money, military, education, politics, and entertainment (SOUND FAMILIAR?) in the orion empire and the people's lifespans started becoming shorter from the long, orion lives they used to live. abraxas was also a brilliant scientist and found that extracting the life essence of souled humans extended their lives again so he turned it into an elixir. he presented it to the orion queens -- whose lives were also getting shorter -- and convinved them of seeding entire planets of life just to extract this life essence. it's where "loosh" comes from.
jedi order is the kadistu order. if you look that up, the only accurate link you'll get is a soundcloud of a band who no one knows about. that's how they play off major things. they always turn into obscure bands on soundcloud who nobody listens to so it can just sit there

The "True Sith" is just a rehash of the original Golden Age of the Sith/Great Hyperspace War Sith Lords. Sith Lords of the Sith species like Naga Sadow, innately born into the Dark Side and not fallen Dark Jedi like Revan and Malak. Naga Sadow was immensely powerful in the Force with abilities nobody could recreate a thousand years later, like personally summoning a whole illusionary fleet to bolster his forces, while still being just a mortal man you could reasonably kick about in a duel in a CRPG.

The big twist on the original plot would be that the new version of Ludo Kressh won the argument of what to do about the Republic, and the New True Sith waited in the shadows to disrupt the Republic from afar rather than wade right into war hoping the element of surprise would carry them to victory.

As far as game mechanics go, yeah he destroys them. Maxed Precise Shot feats + high attack bonuses from droid items + not biologic so he can't be stunned/choked/feared/etc, and a d12 hitdice so he's got fuckloads of HP to tank storms/waves.
In a movie he probably wouldn't be able to beat one in a straight fight because he has no real world counters for Force Push/Pull.

His entire explanation of Revan's "How To Kill Jedi" primer was that the best way to kill Force users is to completely negate the advantages given to them by the Force and their lightsabers.

That happens whenever you're playing a lot in a single session, iirc it starts after about an hour or so.
>what class/weapon is a noob trap that should NOT be picked?
All weapon types are powerful, but the true noob trap is dual wielding before taking the feats for it. I think the only class that's rightly considered bad is the Jedi Master prestige class, and even then it's not bad-bad, it's just not broken as fuck like everything else.

Nah, that's an entirely separate issue. He basically wanted the CIS to be a group of cowardly patsies who didn't have a single virtue between them.

jedi guardian, ironically enough. kotor 2 classes all have full attack bonus per level so you get consular with full melee capability but fewer feat, sentinel also full melee but significantly better saves for i think 1? fewer feat then guardian with full feat, shit saves, and nothing for force powers beyond that initial jump attack

>>
>>743326997
I don't want to go on too much of a tangent, but this is why the clones and order 66 originally worked so well. The clones are bred as perfect soldiers who follow orders without question or emotion. It was the Jedi's mistake to trust them thinking they behaved like humans, because the second the order came down to eradicate the Jedi there was no shock, no feeling of betrayal or fear or hatred, simply empty obedience. Just another day at the office for Commander Cody, banter a bit with the general, return his property, assassinate him, back to shooting droids. Foloni's chips were so damn unnecessary.
>>
>>743333642
And that's fine if it was just him.

They really needed at least some good people on the side of the CSA. Empire in the original trilogy comes across as more sympathetic since a lot of the officers seem to have at least some sense of duty and honor.
>>
>>743334003
The chips were a good thing. Clones aren’t programmed droids. It is completely unnatural, borderline impossible, to fight a war with the same people for 4 years straight and not develop the sort of comradeship that would make you think twice before executing a friend.
It is not a “day in the life of” to get told to fucking shoot your friend and brother in arms in the face you psycho, kek. Chip-deniers need to be institutionalized.

The plot of people being brainwashed so deeply they act completely contrary to their normal personality just from receiving a codeword is older than you are
>>
>>743334293
But it's explicitly stated in Attack of the Clones that this was their specific purpose. They follow orders, and the orders are to kill whatever the Chancellor points at. This is why in the movies, which are the only things that actually matter, by the way, they are never given personalities. There's never a scene where Anakin confides in his clone friend, who tells Anakin stories of being scared during clone army school. It's a fake war being fought on both sides by mindless drones controlled by the same guy as a trap to draw the Jedi in. It doesn't take a genius to figure that out.

I'll be nicer than my contemporaries and justify the chips in this manner: Star Wars at its core, writing-wise, is a tragedy, a space opera. The Prequels especially details the tragic failures and falls of the Republic, and that there are several innocent victims who were manipulated by puppet masters to orchestrate the Jedi and the Republic's demise. The Clones are one of those victims.
Think about being completely bred for war, treated like disposable killing machines by your surrogate parents, raised in laboratories and robbed of any semblance of a normal life, and the only beings in the entire galaxy who treat you as more than mere cannon fodder are supernatural beings who can see past the crude matter and gaze upon your individuality - people who you are now tasked with fighting alongside, dying alongside. MOST Jedi made every opportunity to mitigate Clone deaths in the height of the Clone War - it's one of the tenets of their Order.
Now if you can put yourself in those shoes, imagine you're given the order to execute these people. And then execute children that would've grown up into these people.
Would you?

You're acting as if a clone would have the same inhibitions and morality as an average twenty something human soldier. They wouldn't. Each clone is barely ten years of life experience crammed into a twenty something year old body with a mind that's been flash trained for warfare, fully indoctrinated to republic propaganda, and genetically tailored for just the right amounts of obedience and aggression needed in a soldier/slave. That's not the recipe for a well balanced or morally righteous individual and kaminoans didn't give a shit, their job is to follow orders and bite it by the millions without a complaint. The brain chips are and always have been a copout so that the literal children watching the clone wars didn't shit their pants in confusion when the good guys started killing the other good guys.

You and numerous other people truly undersell the concept of duty/loyalty to a higher form of organization or even ideal or religious branch and how it can divide or even nullify friendships. The Clones first and foremost loyalty was to The Republic. The Republic's continued existence in the face of armageddon, splintering civil war, corruption, conspiracy, dissension, the clones were its first line of defense. The Chancellor embodies EVERYTHING they were taught to protect. Think about it, if the fat orange retard told every military man to start killing people they even mildly suspect of disagreeing with him, would they do it? You bet your ass they would, even if they were friends, family, sick, old, weak, innocent.

Funny enough our group did a homebrew campaign in a between area of the canon like that. I ended up playing a sort of "Reverse HK-47" (instead of an assassin droid larping as a protocol droid, he was a protocol droid modified to be an assassin, one of the other PCs found him in a dump a few years prior to the game) with built in wrist laser-blades, very heavily inspired by 000(who is currently my favorite Star Wars character).

His general modus operandi was slowly shuffling along like one norm ally would, and then when he went into kill mode, he would drop to the ground on all fours and leap at them while making a horrible shrieking noise. Also at onme point due to a lucky roll, he was also apparently programmed at some point to be able to read Sith, which according to the DM is apparently insanely illegal.

God that was a fun campaign.

It's all her own fault. She literally had two chances to join the Exile when she wanted to, the first time when they ran off with Revan and she wanted to go, and the second time when they reappeared and she wanted to join them. Both times she chose to be a coward and deny herself.

It helps you get more out of it. It's worth playing anyway, it's a great RPG. The comparison is also great. KOTOR 1 is a perfect Star Wars pulp space adventure of good vs. Evil with fun, likeable characters, KOTOR 2 is a much darker, ponderous deconstruction of Star Wars and the force, that still gives you option to play as the goodest good guy in Star Wars history.

Fun facts:
>Chris Avellone does not, in fact, hate Star Wars. He enjoyed his time with it and loves aspects of the lore and universe.
>Said he enjoyed the darker parts of the old EU revolving around characters falling to the Dark Side, trying to walk that line and be "different" from usual Sith, but failing, while the good characters often had to suppress their emotions like soldiers in order to defeat the villains while keeping who they are intact.
>Said he was trying to mimic the tone and feel of ESB with KOTOR 2. He had never watched any of the movies before working on the game, said that one was his favorite.
>Said he used Kreia to comment on aspects of the universe he found childish and annoying, but also says she is fundamentally wrong at the end of it all.
>Included lots of references and easter eggs to things about the setting he likes/found charming.
>Said it was important that, despite being a deconstruction, the player still have the opportunity to be wholly a "Star Wars hero" and not have that be mocked or taken apart.

there is only one force
the 'light side' does not exist in the films and was coined out of a misunderstanding that the force is taoist instead of universal
the 'dark side' is named as such because it's a corruption of the force, yes it's possible for some areas to naturally exist with it but those are generally pretty rare and don't really do anything on their own
yoda said it best, the force is supposed to be used for knowledge and defence, not to attack
the moment the force is used to harm someone for the sake of it, the moment it can easily be twisted into the dark side

This doesn't really make sense as the dark side of the force corrupts the user. It becomes more intoxicating the more you give into it. It seems in the movies and in most of the external media, it would be as if it's using you as its vessel, not the other way around.

The point of the Battle for Geonosis isn't to look cool. It's to show how detached from reality the Jedi are. If you haven't noticed 90% of them die in the battle at the hands of a bunch of cheap droids with blasters.

It's to underline just how out of touch they are, and how conventional warfare grinds them into a paste. It's literally a foreshadowing of Order 66.

Barring some rare exceptions though, the Sith aren't free at all. Multiple times do we see how some people become Sith and then in their quest for more power they get so entangled in the dark side and their own ambitions that they end up destroying the things they once cared about, often they are left with nothing in the end.

To be fair, she might be the next Shadow Lord/Lady that lays low during the sequel trilogy (that takes time over a period of a week or so) and only then shows up as the next bad guy with an army of mercs, criminals, Darthomiri witches and Mandalorians. Let me dream.

No, I unironically wish he'd finally realize the anger that was driving him took away everything he had in life and he became a hermit that refuses to have anything to do with Jedi or Sith.

The problem isn't the Sequel Trilogy itself. It's awful, cretinous and retarded, but as you point out it basically takes place within a few weeks.

It's everything it does to set itself up:
>Luke is a failure.

>no Jedi around left
>no Sith in any form around

And so on.

I'd say this is the most important thing. For all people talk shit about KOTOR 2 being some sort of wildly subversive piece of media?
At the end of the day it not only lets you play a full white hat Jedi who keeps to their principles and is rewarded for it.
Kreia wants you to be a good person, she adores the Exile if they defy her at every turn and remain unashamedly good, while she lays nothing but contempt at the feet of a Sith Exile.
Jedi Jesus got 40 days of temptation on the Ebon Hawk with little Granny Bullshit and if he comes out the other side pure as snow then that's depicted as the triumph of Good over Evil, rather than him being a schmuck.
Kreia, at the end of the day, isn't right about people and the only thing in the entire game that makes her proud of you is if you prove it at every turn.

they succeeded with kotor 2 at replicating the best of these deep feeling moments from the ot. when i was a kid i did not understand what the fuck obi wan meant by letting himself be killed by vader and stating that killing him would make him stronger, somehow. I just saw that he died, felt like that was bad, and was confused about what he was talking about and how it made sense

Oh she would absolutely despise the little green shit. The dude is almost a millennium old and was a Jedi master for most of that time, he was instrumental in making sure the jedi order remained even more stagnant and rigid than usual over the last centuries.
She would mock him to death and back for being THE strongest Jedi in the Order and one of the strongest in history, while also being utterly blind to Palpatine. To Kreia, Yoda is everything that is right and wrong with the Jedi combined into one person, he is incredibly powerful but the code and the rigid thinking of the Order was so deeply ingrained into him, he wasn't even capable of making a single critical thought, never mind capable of saving the Order from the Sith.

His failure was as complete as it was predictable and even in his dying days he still managed to give Luke bad advice about Vader.

>>743353685
She would, but she's also be secretly proud when he went "Nah, I decide what's important to me and my friends are important."
Those human connections were proof that Luke wasn't some unthinking, unfeeling Jedi robot that forks food in one end and shits the will of the Force out the other.
Even if he made a bad call, the fact he was willing to make a call at all was proof of his free will, even in the face of the Jedi telling him 'Abandon your friends and heem your dad, lmao'

I do believe you can write around that, but it would require some retconning of TLJ and Disney declaring that the sequel trilogy isn't a be-all and end-all.

Yeah but Yoda wasnt present when Mace was making all the truly bad decisions that let Palpatine actually win. Every single major turn to his favor i can remember was on Mace. He didnt need to cut off Jango's head when he was defenseless and he didnt need to blue ball Anakin and shit on his face and he didnt need to then put Anakin on the Palpatine detail right after that and his little stunt in Palpatines office sealed the deal on Palpatine's jedi have gone rogue narrative.

>>743353908
It was Yoda who told Anakin to stop giving a shit about a loved person dying again and it cemented Anakins opinion that there was so hope or help to expect from the order when it came to his fears. Of course Mace also fucked up like you said but as I mentioned, Mace was a student of Yoda, everything Windu knows he learned from him and Yoda trusted his decisions. This basically means that when Mace did something, he learned how to do it from the little green guy.

Speaking of Yoda. Interesting fact: Yoda was trained by the biggest cuck in Jedi history.
Fae Coven agreed to the Ruusan Reformations which basically put the Jedi Council under the command of the Senate and includes every single thing that led to Creamy Sheev pulling off the 3 pointer 1,000 years later.
No attachments? Reformation. One Padawan only? Reformation. No teaching older kids? ect, ect.
All of that shit was purely a political move that then became cemented as ideology.

If it turned out that Fae Coven was secretly a Sith Lord no one that knows the deep lore would even blink.

Is it any wonder Yoda turned out the way he did

>>743354124
It never ceases to bring me joy whenever tis implied that if Sheev was able to swallow his pride and let Anakin be the one to get it all, the grand plan and Rule of Two would of worked, but as befits a Sith he was just to power hungry and desperate to live forever and so he jumped the gun and then neglected the Empire once he had it to obsess over said immortality.
Like the reason the Death Star got made is because Palps was annoyed by having to take time out of his dark wizard bullshit to run the Empire and so chose the wildly inefficient option that if it did work would make the Empire basically run itself out of sheer suppression.

Yeah except Anakin is asking that in the context of "Hey, I'm getting these crazy dreams of my mom getting gangbanged to death by Tuskan Raiders. She's more cum than woman by this point. Can I do something about that?"

Yes, accepting death and loss is a part of life is healthy.
No, it's not a one koan fits all solution to every situation.

How about anything? Yoda couldn't help even in the slightest, none of the Jedi could which is how Palpatine could swoop in and gain far more of Anakin's trust than he might otherwise been able to.

Literally not what happened at all, Anakin was pussying around the issue from the jump to avoid giving off the hint that he was down for Padme. Anakin gave a vague explanation and received pretty sound advice in exchange.

Anakin's problems are his own creations and he was always characterized as sort of arrogant. He could've quit being a jedi at anytime (there's another character in the movies that did exactly that) and it would've solved all of his problems but he wanted to be the chosen one.

Even his little spat with Mace about not getting to be on the council was not that big of a deal. Like yeah OK mace I know you don't like me, well deal with this when the war is over?

Not to mention whether the rules are stupid or not, Anakin knew them and didn't want to be held accountable to them. That's not how jobs work but Anakin felt like he was special and he acted like it.

Help him in any way to save his mother from being raped to death for example. Anakin hid the truth because he knew for a fact that Obi Wan and the Council would judge and condemn him for his actions. Palpatine did neither of those things, he accepted Anakin and his flaws and thus got greater hold over that young man's heart than all the Jedi combined.
Obviously Anakin also carries blame but that doesn't excuse the rest of the Order from all wrongdoing.

>No-no, Yoda was perfect and right and the Jedi did nothing wrong and-
And they fucked it all up and the Republic fell for exactly that kind of thinking.
Countless aeons of teachings, all the power and resources they could want and the backing of the entire Republic and they fumbled the bag by being dogmatic whenever it served their interests and hypocrites when it didn't.

Exactly. I am very tired of people laying endless blame at the Jedi’s feet when Anakin literally self inflicted his issues because he was cowardly and thought the Jedi would punish him for admitting his attachment.
If he had said straight up “I am in love with Padme” he would’ve been offered a way out of the Order or, if he stayed, given further mentorship to release that attachment and taken off assignments involving Padme.
Anakin did NOT tell anyone SHIT, that’s the entire point of the story. It was a forbidden, SECRET love.

It's even worse than just serving their interest. When Anakin comes to Yoda for advice the little green midget cannot even think of giving ANY other reply than
>learn to not give a shit, you must
For Yoda there was only one path to being a Jedi while everything else was wrong so it didn't even occur to him that Anakin might need more than the bog standard reply to having emotions.
Qui Gon would've handled it much better, precisely because he wasn't obsessed with the letter of the law but the spirit of it instead.

When Qui-Gon wanted to do something considered against the rules he would literally report himself. He did so when he said he wanted to train Anakin. Anakin picked the wrong lesson from that and hid things he could've just told them. There were ways to fight the system without sperging out but apparently only 1 person had that ability (mind you Obi-Wan was not punished when he did the same and told them to their faces hed train Anakin whether they permitted it or not) so they were not always as rigid as they seemed. Like Quigon and Obi-Wan just got away with that shit.

Boy that sure is some dogmatic thinking right there given Lucas wrote an entire trilogy on how the failures of institutions come from within.

They weren't blind to it, they wilfully ignored it to focus on going off on a jolly to war to save the Republic.
But remember, no attachments.
Just being an enforcer for the Senate, because being attached to the Republic certainly isn't an attachment, UwU.

If you can't see any issues with the Order circa Prequel era, when you have aeons of history to compare and contrast with?
That's what we like to call a skill issue.
>>
>>743355150
And at the same time bent the rules a bit to include Anakin in the first place, when they could've put their foot down and said no. What's Obi-Wan going to do, leave the order to train him outside of it? Fair enough for the Order if they wanted to be truly black and white.

To be fair, Qui Gon was a proven Master who, despite his many missteps, still had the full trust of the Council behind him after years of service. Anakin probably felt like he was on shaky ground from the start when Yoda rejected to have him taught. He probably assumed that if he revealed his marriage he'd been shunted out the door within the hour.
Didn't help that Obi Wan was the complete opposite to Qui Gon and couldn't even conceive on why someone would have issues with the Jedi Code. It's honestly amazing how little Obi Wan learned from his master.

I never denied the flaws and ultimately the failure of the Jedi, I’m merely pointing out that their flaws are not as deep and damning as you people love to insist.

Nonetheless the entire debate over Anakin's age and Yoda's doubt proves the Jedi Order at the time WAS willing to hear arguments and accept answers they didnt want to hear. At least sometimes.

Which shows George is smarter than people credit him because a story where everyone just cucks a kid repeatedly until he snaps is not tragic. George very obviously wanted Order 66 to be deeply tragic and feel like a bad thing so no the Order while flawed was not entirely in the wrong. Anakin had plenty of outs and he just kept stacking fuck ups of his own up to and including telling his secret wife he just murdered "everyone, even the women and children" and then hiding that too.

By the time AOTC is over, Anakin is barely even a Jedi in anything but name. He's already becoming a sham.

No it isn't just the institution. It's, and this is important, people.

>>743355340
They were willing to listen to Qui Gon only because they knew for a fact that he would flat out ignore their orders and train Anakin anyway somewhere far away.
Otherwise yeah I do get what George was trying to do, Anakin had plenty of flaws and bad choices but in the end a single Jedi that Anakin could fully trust would've made all the difference. I have noticed for myself repeatedly how Obi Wan was the completely wrong person to train Anakin. Ani had tons of issues with the Jedi code while for Obi Wan took to it like a fish takes to swimming. Obi Wan was basically the perfect Jedi by all metrics while Anakin barely managed to remain one. A more flawed teacher, someone who actually understands how emotions and code can clash might've been able to gain Anakins trust and prevent total manipulation by Sidious.

Shoulda started shilling it sooner, but I've been waiting until the core was ready - too many projects start shilling with a handful of visual assets and no game.

As someone who's reasonably critical I am actually pretty excited about how it's turning out. Looking forward to sharing it with you boys!

I'll be a good boy and wait until I have visual assets - i e. screenshots of anything other than capsules floating around towards other capsules - before I start askin' folks here to join the Disc Ord*. (And yes mr. Smart Alec I know that's NOT the 4chan SLANG, but I prefer to not to type the real one).

Funnily enough, during the Jedi-Sith Wars before the Ruusan Reformation, this was exactly the case - there were multiple temples and schools, entire noble families comprised of Jedi, Jedi Lords who ruled entire star systems etc.

Tell me you're an insufferable midwit without using those exact words why don't you? Just because red letter media told you it doesn't make it true.
The Prequels are flawed gems, an epic story about the fall of a Republic from within.
They're absolutely in line with the originals in terms of quality and all you can do is sit there on your raw little ass and cry about it.
And before you @ me, I've got one thing to say to you.

Uh, sir, they were busy getting shot at.
They literally made an attempt later on during the War and came close to discovering the truth and Sidious shat his pants and had to pull out every trick in the book to obfuscate. Does that just not count? Let me guess: It’s Filonishit, so it doesn’t count, right?

Not all of them were getting shot at all the time and they still had plenty of resources.
Waiting until years later for such an investigation is also pointless, they'd have lost everything even if the truth was revealed.

Either way the council acknowledged Obi-Wan threat after Qui Gon died which demonstrated on some level they were not so close minded. If they had told Obi-Wan to pound sound whatever happens after that can't be on them. They already broke a rule to let Anakin in in the first place so from minute 1 it was reinforced to Anakin that he was special and the rules should not apply to him (ironically making the council somewhat at fault for his attitude). The majority of Anakin's tenure as a Jedi was spent hiding crimes he'd committed, hiding things considered unethical to the Order, and trying to play both sides with the Palpatine assignment to get what HE wanted.

And even there Anakin proved he prioritized his own wants over the Republic. Even -if- Palpatine could have definitively saved Padme, by that point Mace wasnt completely wrong when he argues in Palpatine's office about executing him. Anakin is obviously trying to bait him into keeping him alive for entirely selfish reasons.

Still being bashed out. Trying to make them good enough.(And they're not ready to share yet, I hate the idea of sharing something and then realizing it needs to be fixed.

I am remembering that 4chan is a tougher crowd than some places. Which is fun, but I do need to show more than some places. Fair! Just figured I'd give y'all the news.



Have a good one! Thanks for asking.

Yeah but it also showed that even if he didnt like Anakin personally and sort of cucked him off the council for a bit, Mace still trusted Anakin pretty deeply. Which just goes to show who Anakin had devolved into by that point from all his secrets and lies he'd hidden from everyone. He chops off Mace's hand and gives like 2 seconds of pity (mostly for himself) before doubling down again.

She's a cuckquean

>It is good that you have never wondered what lay beneath her robes. If her alabaster skin was as white and unblemished as her face. Or if perhaps she bore the scars of slavery… and if that would stir you more. If perhaps her deferent tone would change once you held her by the throat, and showed her how far a Jedi can fall

Mace should get more like 5% just for killing Jango the way he did which was completely unnecessary and prevented them from easily exposing the entire plot. Doubly so because hed just been seen standing next to Count Dooku and Obi-Wan knew the clones were derived from him.

Jango could've been taken alive.

Its been out in early release for a while and I am constantly updating it. Its on the kotor 2 nexus. As far as when I am implementing the Handmaiden romance fix: I can’t really give an ETA. Soonish probably. I work pretty fast but I also get distracted but other ideas I suddenly want to do for quests and stuff.

Not really. Makes sense that an order that used extreme self repression and attachment to the outside world would end up developing a reliance on rules and protocol.

It's why the jedi order fell. They lost sight of the Force, ironically enough. Since the Force is generated and guided by life, and thus attachments.

Literal cuck logic born of the free love movement.
I like George but he had some fucking retarded ideas (see Ewoks for more)
"Oh, you can love them but you can't possess them."
Great George, let me just rawdog your wife, you don't want to be ~possessive~ do you?
>>
>>743357141
Obsessed, lmao.

>>743357307

>>743357348
I won't waste my time arguing with a retard. You don't know what you're talking about, and the extent of your intellectual ability is bringing up cuckolding out of nowhere.

It's interesting to see George's perspective on this. I think his idea of loving but not possessing them is less a cuck thing and more that fundamentally you can't change their fate.

Seems like Jedi can love but they must always be distant, always have a firm wall between themselves and others at some level. That's why Anakin fell; he was never taught that, and the loss of his mom made him fear losing Padme.

But on that same token it's Luke's attachment to his father which ultimately saves the day, so maybe it's not supposed to be that black and white.

>I think his idea of loving but not possessing them is less a cuck thing and more that fundamentally you can't change their fate.
The problem is that to love is to care for something.
And to care for it you have to give at least a bit of a shit about what happens to it.

To steal a quote from a different piece of media on the subject:
>All witches are selfish, the Queen had said. But Tiffany’s Third Thoughts said: Then turn selfishness into a weapon! Make all things yours! Make other lives and dreams and hopes yours! Protect them! Save them! Bring them into the sheepfold! Walk the gale for them! Keep away the wolf! My dreams! My brother! My family! My land! My world! How dare you try to take these things, because they are mine! I have a duty!
>>
>>743357665
I'm of the same thought, myself. But I can understand what Lucas is trying to convey. To be a Jedi you have to be willing to love, while simultaneously be willing and able to accept that your love may die without letting fear of it dictate your actions.

That seems really hard for most people to affectively do, so I understand why the order banned love to prevent it.

Luke with Vader doesn't have fear, and that seems to be a big part of what Lucas considers the dark side. The only time the dark side gets to Luke is when Leia is threatened.
>>
>>743357881
At the end of the day it's kind of the original sin built into the Star Wars setting, mixing eastern philosophy of balance and 'This shit is just how it is bro' with western philosophy of good and evil.
"Eating babies is evil" is a coherent thought.
"Fear is a natural part of life, but to let it control your entire existence is foolish" is a coherent thought.
"Fear is evil because it leads to you eating babies" is crazy homeless people talk.
>>
EU Luke not banning personal relationships and marriage in his new order was ultimately far better than whatever the fuck the Prequel Jedi were doing.

No, it's his compassion that saves the day. Attachment is not compassion. Selfless love is not selfish, possessive clinging. The problem with Star Wars faggots is that you are all illiterate morons and don't know shit about anything except some vapid, pointless, fanfiction "lore" written by other retards to cash in on you. You can try not being a retard and read George's interviews or listen to the audio commentaries for the movies, for starters.
