Isn’t it kinda weird that the prequel era was universally hated but gave gamers tons of games to play but the sequel era has gave us nothing?
She killed star wars.
Disney hates gamers almost as much as they hate Star Wars fans
Jedi games should've been the new mainline trilogyUnironically can't wait for the third and for Cal to go dark side.
>>696948924disney is a company run by gigaboomers who actually hate video games.
>>696949001What's it called when there's no transition point between neck and chin? Face cankles?
>>696949001Based. Let it die
>>696948924>universally hatedonly by xoomers
>>696948924>universally hatedThis is a myth.
>>696948924Disney made an exclusivity deal with ea that lasted for 10 years, they also don't allow anyone to touch the sequel era or do anything interesting cause they're autistic about canon when it doesn't involve trannies
>>696948924>universally hatedonly by people old enough to have seen the OT in theatersthe prequels brought an entire new generation of fans to the brand, which is also why the games were so successfulthe sequel trilogy brought no one new and drove old fans away
Sequel era is shit and barebones so you can't make any compelling vidya that's based on it
>>696948924Wasn't that new Jedi game sequel era? But to your point: the Prequels have relatively vast scopes compared to the Sequels. Lots of locales, a huge war going on, mini-factions like the gungans, political subterfuge, etc. Even if Lucas didn't handle things very well in the movies, there's plenty of material to work with if you're a bona-fide creative with a good idea. The Sequels don't really have that. The whole Resistance fits on like 3 or 4 ships and we never get any real hints about what's going on more than ten feet away from our intrepid protagonists. Then the final movie descends into power level wankery that would have been out of place in Force Unleashed. There's just not a lot to do in the Sequel setting unless you try and invent something wholecloth.
>>696948924Movie games are dead. Also, nobody actually liked these trash movies and Rey enough to play a game based on them.We got Ginger Jedi and Master Sheboon Jedi instead.
>>696948924>prequel era was universally hatedIt's treason then.
>>696948924For as dry and boring as the movies themselves were, the prequels were excellent for world-building. The sequels are a complete nothing of nothingness.
>>696948924>prequel era was universally hatedTell me you're a zoomer without telling me you're a zoomer.
>>696949001If only she could kill capeshit then the real healing can begin.
>>696948924is it even possible to make a disney wars game that is good? i know they made a dark souls knockoff but i haven't played it>play as old decrepit luke skywalkerpass>play as angsty ben solomite be cool if they make it like force unleashed and add some nu-metal as the soundtrack>play as reyboring>play as nigger trooperno thanks>play as ugly chinklol no>play as old han and chewie going on their last space adventurecould worki left out leia because who cares
>>696948924I didn't really like the prequels that much either, I thought they were just fine, but they are masterpieces in comparison to Kathleen Kennedy's slop.
>>696949543>>696950413What are you talking about. Zoomers look favorably on the Prequels it was millennials and especially Gen X boomer scum like Mike Stoklasa who based their entire identity on hating them.
>>696948924>corporate astroturfed hate propaganda campaign against prequels>universally hatedNo they weren't. They just wanted their hands on the IP to milk and kill it like they did now, and too many people fell for it.
>>696948924>the prequel era was universally hatedBullshit. The movies received a lot of backlash, but it was a far cry compared to the sequels.Also all the tie-ins were top notch, and Lucas let people do whatever the fuck they wanted in the EU.No comparison with Disney delegitimizing "legends" just to steal ideas to nostalgiabait while forcing everyone to shill the latest line of official products.Like imagine if kotor or jedi academy had to completely change direction of the series just to shill for the clone wars like jedi survivor had to do for the high republic.
>>696950693like a decade after the movies came outwhen they came out they had the biggest hype you would've ever fucking seen up to that point, dwarfing the likes of Harry Potter, LOTR and The Matrix
>>696949543DAAAAAAAAMN DARK LORDS LOOK LIKE THAT!?!??!!!!?!!???
>>696949939>sheboon dies in the sequel >literally nobody gives a fuck, everyone's attention is on Cal and Merrin
>>696949543sheev be looking kinda thicc ngl
Looking at how contrarian people tend to be I give it a year or two before the sequels get people quoting them for memes and saying how theyre “kinoredpilledmisunderstoodkino classics”
>>696948924>Isn’t it kinda weird that the prequel era was universally hated but gave gamers tons of games to play but the sequel era has gave us nothing?No it isn't. The prequels were fucking donkey dogshit, but the setting premise was not only generally fine, but very versatile for videogames. Also the prequel visual designs were original and high quality. It was really just the characters, plots, and acting which were bad, which don't matter at all to videogames just set in the same time and place.
So did Palpatine pretty much end up winning in the end?
>>696953240Somehow, Palpatine returned.
>>696953240It's not contrarianism, it's just retard autists trying to defend what they liked when they were 10 because they're embarrassed to admit they liked something bad. Sort of like how people on this board defend sonic adventure because they had a dreamcast when they were 8 and they're too proud to admit that they just didn't know any better and had no standards at the time. Then again, I also don't really know why any kids would latch onto the prequels. They don't just suck, they're also very boring. I was 7 years old when phantom menace came out and I saw it in theaters and I distinctly remember being disappointed with it compared to the original trilogy, though at the time I obviously couldn't really articulate why.
>>696949937>Wasn't that new Jedi game sequel era?Not at all. The nuJedi games are set between the PT and OT and don't really have anything to do with sequels.
literally everything back then got video game tie ins and shit. because the video game market was still in the wild west phase where people experimented and shit and a lot of genres and shit weren't cemented
>>696949001How did this bitch go from Jurassic Park 1 to soiwars 8
>>696948924the prequels were popular among kids, ep. 3 was popular among teens, so that was perfect for making video gamesthe sequel audience were old men who feel obligated to watch any star wars film. no one would have bought Rey the Game.also it offers nothing. if you want a small group of rebels fighting stormtroopers, you just use the OT. the sequels are so worthless even video game writers consider it beneath them.
>>696953843Her husband and Spielberg babysat her on every project for 30 years. She cannot make anything good on her own.
>>696949937There were characters like Phasma and the Knights of Ren who were briefly showcased but given no substance and left mostly unexplained (by the films, anyway). Games might be able to do something there.
>>696948924Gave us Sims 4 coomer mod kino
>>696950458jedi fallen order is set between ep 3 and 4. it's basically kenobi but not a complete fucking waste of time.
>>696948924There's two chief problems:1. Disney going galaxy retard and giving an exclusive license to EA back in 2012 or so.2. The prequels had problems but had a fairly coherent vision from start to finish, were full of good designs, and had interesting concepts to flesh out the setting of Star Wars. The sequel trilogy meanwhile is nothing but a bad rehash of the original trilogy and no had no actual plan going from entry to entry, so there is zero potential for spinoffs.
episodes 2 and 3 were gay but I liked episode 1, even the parts with jar jar.
>>696953843you should ask how the dude behind the last jedi got signed on to make it. the dude was a complete nobody who had only made like 2 good movies or some shit
>>696948924its not weird at all. george lucas' EU was extremely lax and gave people tons of freedom to create anything they wanted and profit from it, all lucasarts wanted was a cut. Disney killed that and now expects people to create content for peanuts and has strict demands about what that content can be.
>>696949939The vast majority of prequel era games were not direct movie tie ins
>>696949939>We got Ginger Jedi and Master Sheboon Jedi instead.they aren't sequel games though
>>696948924Disney was greedy with the IP and didn't share the rights. Also they ditched video games for theme park and streaming service sales, which killed generations of fans.
>>696948924Star Wars is soulless without its based retard George Lucas in charge. The prequels were the product of one man's vision that produced cringekino and cool toy designs. Disney Wars is made by committee slop that is just cringe instead of kino.
>>696951149Yeah but they weren't really well received critically. Even as a kid I hated AotC, I liked RotS though. We got the most hyped for toys, games, and books all set around the time period, or just in general. KotOR alone made me buy an Xbox just so I could play an RPG as a guy with a lightsaber.
>>696948924>a new game is a hero shooter just make it stop filled with OCs
>>696949001Completely unrelated but I don't get how South Park did a special about her and they somehow cucked out of making fun of someone who the consensus irrevocably agrees ruined Star Wars
>>696955374because south park has been cucked since hillary
>>696955374"put a chick in it and make her lame and gay" is the gift that keeps on giving
>>696955152>The prequels were the product of one man's visionEverything good out of both the PT and OT were the result of other people.
>>696955468They depicted Saddam Hussein as satan's gay lover to throw shade for the Bush admin during the beginning of the Iraq war. They've been cucked far longer than that
>>696955374anon it's been a very long time since South Park actually had balls to make fun of stuff properly, now they're a lot more gay and restrained and california-brained
>>696951149>>696955243Prequels had the better multimedia project. It was like an event with all the books, novels, comics video games, shows, web media, collabs, etc. There were never stuff on clearance compared to disney products. You zoomers only got a Fornite event, which had important plot stuff that nobody knew about. And if you want a multimedia experience, you have to pay hundreds or thousands of dollars at the Disney theme parks.
>>696949836>also don't allow anyone to touch the sequel era or do anything interesting cause they're autistic about canon when it doesn't involve tranniesare they really? their comics and novels keep contradicting each other, lets not even start with the shows or even the stthe only reason we dont have a game set in the st its because they would not be able to use such idea in a future movie or they would be assmad that someone had a better and more interesting idea
>>696948924The older I get, the more I realise the Star Wars films are objectively dogshit and all I ever really loved were the games.
>>696950458>play as old woman ahsokaboring and filoni will not let anyone else use her waifu
>>696955730Ok (((Spielberg))) thats why Star Wars is still doing great without George, right?
>>696953741PS2 era was past the wild west phase. Development was just shorter and less expensive so it was viable to shit out tie in games.
>>6969559585 was a legitimately good movie but 4 is kind of a mess and everything with Ewoks in 6 is garbage
Not really, Disney are retards that closed LucasArts and gave the game rights to EA
>>696956090this came out in 2011 lol, way past the ps2 erahttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thor:_God_of_Thunder#Reception
>>696956190Okay? I didn't specify at what point it stopped being viable. That would be 8th gen.
>>696955374South Park never made fun of Obama and they pride themselves on being impartial. They never made fun of Biden.
>>696949903pretty much. the prequels were shit but they at least had interesting ideas other people could build on and a distinct visual identity.the sequels are just "we have the OT at home" and is now a radioactive dreg heap even disney is trying to pretend didn't happen
>>696955243I liked stuff in AotC like Jango and the Dooku fight but for the most part I didn't like it because it was boring, but RotS was awesome, I watched it a lot and played the PS2 game a lot too
>>696948924becayse of synergy, the same reason why some characters in marvel comics changed to be how they are in the moviesthats why they cant make a game about the sequels, they would either have include whatever hapoens in there
>>696948924like that one anon said, what kind of game can you make? nobody wants to play or be any of the new characters, old characters are all dead and if somebody manages to make something interesting with new characters disney will ruin it (see mando and the clone wars)
>>696948924What material is there to do with the sequel saga?>Rebels are just rebels again but with more brown, fat and gay people>First order which is literally just the empire again>Snoke (lol)>boomer loser douchebag Luke>Rey skywalker the most unlikeable protagonist ever>Kylo Ren>Old Leia>Old Han Solo>Finn>Poe>Captain PhasmaI guess there's the Mandalorian characters
Say what you want about the prequels, but they had a lot of interesting stuff that could be used to tell new stories.>Clone Troopers and Order 66>The gap between Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith>Mandalorians>Anakin's downfall>Separatists>Dooku and Sifo DyasThe prequels, on the other hand, have no worldbuilding, like at all.
>Battlefronts>Battlefronts 2>Jedi Fallen Order >Jedi Survivor >Jedi OutlawsIs this this best Star wars games since the Sequels came out in 2015?
>>696957146Anon, those are the ONLY Star Wars games to come out since EA acquired the license in 2012
>>696957127Sequels*
>>696957108>Mandalorian charactersanon they arent sequel characters and mandalore is apparently wiped according to ahsoka
>>696957108Mandalorian is set before the sequels.
>>6969561364 is actually a very elegant movie that lays out different plot threads and weaves them together until they are totally unified at the Death Star trench run. Are you referring to some of the dialogue, effects, the changes they made in editing?Everyone knows Ewoks suck, but not everyone realizes they are compartmentalized in the least important part of the film.
>>6969561364 is the most fun
>>696948924its incredible that seeing the success of mando they didnt push ea to make a game of that asap, especially when people still piss themselves over 1313
>>696957585>4 is actually a very elegant movieBro we all know by now it was salvaged in editing to an obscene degree. Like, it wasn't a little clunky before the post-production team took a go at it, it was borderline unwatchable.
>>696948924that's because the stupid idiots who made these shitty movies gave no room to develop any kind of story at all>episode 7 and 8 are set back to back making it impossible to do anything>episode 8 and episode 9 are a year apart but everything is frozen in status quo as to not enter in more contradictions that already exists>no one wants to touch post episode 9 with a ten foot polelike, how could would it be to have some games with old Luke going in some new adventures after coming back to the good guys, but he can't because the fucking retard who did episode8 fucking killed him for no reason.
>>696956136The finale in 6 is some of the best of Star Wars IMO but the rest of the movie is not great
>>696948924I only paid attention to ubisoft's game to laugh at it a bit, is it set during the empire?
>>696948924The SHITquels are devoid of soul, spirit, and wordbuilding. They immolated the Star Wars IP and Yidsney doesn't have a single brain cell or creative fiber in order to course correct.
>>696957146>>Jedi Outlawsnever heard of this game
>>696957823>episode 7 and 8 are set back to back And Last Jedi somehow still didn't follow up on anything that was set up in Force Awakens
>>696957767Uh...good thing that's not the movie we actually got?
>>696953240>>696953657'10s nostalgia will never happen.There's already movies over a decade old that have never had anyone materialize who "grew up" with them, where are all the people who were enthralled with these as eight-year-olds that are now shitposting 18-year-olds extolling their hidden virtues?Actually, I make an exception. One thing that everyone dunked on absolutely WILL come back with fresh eyes as an "underrated gem." That thing is very much like the Star Wars Prequels.That thing is Twilight.
>>696957823the worst thing is how it affects a game about the OT tooYou cant make a game about Han because he will eventually end up a mess that lose his ship and familyCant do a game about Luke because in the end he will isolate himself for being a retard and then die not long afterNo games about neing a padawan in his NJO because your character will die or desert anyways
>>696948924The Prequels were NOT universally hated, but it suffered a similar problem that the Sequels had, it got worst each movie.
>>696958378Kids don't remember movies they saw in the 2010s, they remember memes they saw in the 2010s
>>696958471I can't even remember what happened in episode 7 besides the nigger falling into sand the next two were so bad.
>>696958721Imagine 4 but worse
>>696955790Everyone hated Bush for his retarded GWOT which involved overthrowing and killing Saddam Hussein (who wasn't even associated with Al Qaeda). Like other people have been saying, it's when Matt and Trey became Califagifornians that the show went to shit and the 2016 election ruined the show since it was very clear they were shills for Hilldawg. They're literally too brainpoisoned to do that things that made them famous in the first place.
>>696957767yes and then when it came out it was excellent. that's why it won the academy award for best editing and not best screenplay or director
>>696958378Alice in Wonderland was one of the weirdest movies I ever saw. Just terribly weird choices.
>>696956614The RotS game was actually surprisingly good, my friends and I played the shit out of the Vs. mode a ton. Also I hated the Phantom Menace game at the time, but revisiting it I can see it was pretty expansive with its design, just brutally difficult and kind of ugly. Also Jedi Power Battles was the fucking shit.
>>696958765That's bringing back some memories so I'm just going to watch 4 again and pretend the franchise only ever got a sequel.
>>696958378The Hobbit trilogy is cringekino
>>696958779>Everyone hated Bush for his retarded GWOTNot at the time, zoom zoom. He won the 2004 election off of the popularity of the Iraq war. It was only into his second term that people started to turn on it. Matt and Trey were entirely complicit in the media-wide campaign to justify the invasion to begin with.
>>696948924There's nothing to work with in the sequels, they're just remakes of the OT and Dark Empire but worse, no one wants to touch the era unless they have to. They turned the heroes of the OT into miserable, washed up old failures and replaced them with Rey. As long as Star Wars leads into the sequels, it's doomed as a brand.
>>696958806And at the time it came out, it was the fifth highest grossing movie ever madeImagine that, when the chart was just>Avatar>Titanic>Return of the King>Jurassic Park>Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderlandalso sex with giant head Helena Bonham Carter, the fourth most erotic of all Helena Bonham Carters
>>696958806Tax write offs.
>>696948924>universally hateWas it? A lot of it was tainted by early YouTube like RLM who were the boomers of their time. Now the prequels are FAR from perfect but the more years have gone by and the more unscripted conversations you've seen with people like Mike the easier it is to go back to those Plinkett Reviews and look past the veil of critique to see someone that grew up with the originals and just didn't like the universe the prequels created. Force Awakens was made by and for such people, and look where that left us.The prequels had prose-ish dialogye inspired by 1920s movies, that was on purpose. George's wooden dialogue on top of it wasn't. Some actors like Ewan or Jackson made it work, some others like Hayden (who killed it at physical acting, like pic related or the fighting or the absolutely vitriolic I HATE YOU scene) didn't. Still, what we gained was quite literally an entire galaxy of content and lore. Suddenly all these places that only existed in one line of dialogue or two and in a couple comics were given huge LOTR-tier showcases. The worlds and the politics and the scope of the technology and the Republic was seen like never before, as were the Sith and the folly of the Jedi order. As memed as it is, the poetry was present and allowed to expand from there. You know how George Martin likes to see he's a gardener or some shit? I see Lucas as a farmer: he plants the seeds and they spiral into amazing things by themselves. The Expanded Universe from 2000 to 2010 is the best Star Wars ever was, from games to The Clone Wars. It's never been more joever.
>>696950693Gen X hated the prequelsMillennials were neutralZoomers love them for some hipster reason, they were barely alive when they came out
>>696960557>Zoomers love them for some hipster reasonIt's the memes
>>696948924If you want scrappy rebels vs big empire, you'd just do empire vs rebels. Resistance and First Order are crappy knockoffs even in-universe.If you want something with the New Republic, they do absolutely nothing before exploding in the first movie. They don't really have an Imperial Remnant to rival them in EU either because Palpatine sent a recording of himself saying "kys lmao" and they actually did and glassed all the loyalist planets.Only real options are OC aliens or a scum and pirates plot that could be set anywhere but would still probably get more attention in the OT.
>>696948924>Isn’t it kinda weird that the prequel era was universally hated but gave gamers tons of games to play but the sequel era has gave us nothing?No, its not weird. Video games were better when I was younger.
>>696948924>be disney>cancel all projects except TOR, which only lives because you>give exclusive rights to EA for eight years>EA makes a grant total of 4 large games, two of which are sequels>One has a major PR clusterfuck months before you launch your own torpedo into the franchise>give Ubisoft a shot just as people finally get tired of the ubisoft formula>meanwhile EA pulls off an unprecedented move and makes a game that, while flawed, still pays more respect for the franchise than anything you've shat out (that wasn't sneaked past, anyway)>then drop a dirty bomb on the old republic era with acolyte just after you've utterly irradiated the post sequel era and the early rebellion era just for good measure.The utter incompetence is staggering to this day.This is just from a video game perspective.
>>696960731What memes? "I hate sand" is a boomer meme
>>696960736and cant even do anything set in the past because its boring
>>696960254>Was it?Yes retard. Plinkett's first SW review came out 2009, years after Sith. Are we going to pretend Jar Jar wasn't hated too?
>>696958378>That thing is Twilight.I doubt it, because that's already been tainted by feminists with trolls remorse reevaluating (read looking back at their hilariously misogynistic abuse of meyer and trying to blame men for it) the franchise. Any discourse will be fucked from day 1
>Prequels hate>When rotj was already fucking dogshit
>>696960963More?
>>696960823
>>696960254bruh, literally everyone that weren't kids hated the prequel trilogy lol. the only people that talks positively about them are people who watched them when they were kids
>>696960823doge was too memes aren't forever tied to one "generation"
>>696960963dicks arent this big IRL. so fake and gay.
>>696960956I never did figure out who that is cutting of Jar Jar's head because it's certainly not Ewan McGregor.
Post sequels where do you even take it? You can't follow up with jedi tranies since disney has an iron grip on the idea so you can't just introduce a new threat that connects to the new shattered republic there was little to no time between the movies unlike the prequels that had years of an active war to use.

>>696960790>The utter incompetence is staggering to this day.At some point deniability becomes implausible and you have to ask if Disney was actively attempting to wreck the brand for some reason.

>>696962980anyone who literally, unironically prefers the prequels to the first two sequels is an unserious person who only likes the prequels because they have fond memories of seeing Revenge of the Sith in theaters with dad when they were two
>>696953449The Jedi are destroyed, the Skywalker bloodline is gone and a Palpatine remains. He did.
>>696963079I watched Revenge of the Sith with a girl I was dating when I was 22. It was nice.And honest to god, all the sequels were genuine trash. No one can possibly even ironically like any of them.
>>696948924I liked the prequels but I probably benefit from being a zoomer and watching them as a kid
>>696948924Its crazy how many opportunities they've managed to bungle with the series. They could just make a star wars game starring Vader or Maul and it would sell a shit ton and be one of the most anticipated games in the year. Instead we got whatever the fuck outlaws was
>>696955730>"Star Wars was saved in the edit" ahhh motherfucker
>>696954057lol the ending of the first game made it feel like a giant waste of time. They destroyed the MacGuffin they spent the entire game searching for.Maybe Jedi Survivor will lead somewhere cool. We have to wait and see.
>>696949102dark forces 2, jedi outcast and jedi academy would indeed be great instead of nu-wars slop. Dont know who this "cal" character is, dont you mean desann?
>>696963189The Force Awakens was universally beloved and made a ton of money. The Last Jedi was a lot more controversial (because the """megafan"""" prequelbabies can't emotionally navigate Luke being sad) but was still critically acclaimed.

>>696963382>Every Star Wars was good when you were a kid.weird that there's nobody saying The Force Awakens was awesome when they saw it as a kid ten years ago then
>>696963331>TFA>Universally belowedIt's just a lazy rehash of A New Hope
I think the prequels are the best Star Wars movies
>>696957823>TLJ takes place a day after TFA but the Rebels have a giant bomber armada nowhere to be seen in the last movie
>>696960557Zoomers love them because they grew up watching The Clone Wars.
>>696963382I like anakin, he's cool it's been a while since I watched any of the movies, last I did was a ROTS rewatch>>696963505hmmm
>>696963459>>696963482>dude I noticed there was an xwing and a death star in it so SAME MOOBIE xD
>>696948924They made something so literattly creatively bankrupt that it's completely and utterly unsalvagable. That's not even factoring in stuff like having Tattooine and just calling it a different name.
>>696963365just search for daisy ridley playing a corpse and go on from there
>>696963570I dont know if you are being intentionally obtuse or not. Its literally the exact same story beats. Its even got "death star but even bigger and scarier" as the main threat.
>>696958378
>>696963640>movies are nothing but their bare bones plot beats I'm glad characterization, visual style, filmmaking techniques, none of that counts for anything
>>696953657holy fucking projection, kill yourself retard
>>696962298Even then, Disney giving E fucking A exclusive rights to Disney games doomed them. Now we only have one company working on SW games AND it's a company that makes 1 good game every 4 years.
>>696948924another big thing why disney era star wars games wont ever be good is because they cant experiment or do crazy shit, everything has to go back to the statu quo of the OT or STnaad lets nor even begin with disney never letting any dev make a slightly violent game ever, let alone with sexy space bitches
>>696963678This is so obvious. I actually read the Twilight books and I'm dead fucking serious. They weren't amazing, and they were even predictable, but they were entertaining enough to finish.
>>696963526I actually never watched the clone wars, maybe I should though for ahsoka
>>696960956Boomers were never funnyhttps://youtu.be/wzDIClx-_pY>FETCH JAR JAR CREATURES
>>696948924The prequels were ok. You subhuman imbeciles were brainwashed by Disney media campaign to roast George too much so he would sell.
>>696963079>to the first two sequelsEpisode 9 is cringekino so bad is good. Episode 8 is just 2 hours of depression. It's not 2019 anymore anoon, people don't pretend to like TLJ any longer
95% of those games were shit and no, Old Republic Era doesn't count. That's built on the expanded universe. I'm talking about games built directly on the prequel setting.
>>696963698I mean if we want to talk about how impressive the effects were for the originals, where all the sci fi stuff was made using actual battleship model kits was extremely soulful and the newer ones are pumped out by 3D artists right out of college then we can I guess. And how was the characterization different? You have a spunky kid yanked out of their boring life on a desert planet by the machinations of a giant evil military force, pick up a mentor that teaches them a few things, then dies while they try and stop a sci fi superweapon from wiping out people they dont know and never knew but its obviously bad anyway.Also the Millenium Falcon was there.
Star Wars is literally the most uninspired setting ever, it's science fiction without any interesting futuristic ideas. It's amazing to me the amount of resources devoted to expanding this bland universe across movies, games, television etc
>>696963359Just as much of a Mary Sue as Rey btw
>>696949543>xoomersFaggots nobody cares about, not even by their own children. lmao
>>696960956>Rastafari space bunny is too FUCKING STUPID FUCK THE PREQUELS>But the gay lispy British robot from the original series? Definitely not fucking stupid.This is why we laugh at you brain dead gen x prequel hating retards.
>>696963079The last Jedi is an abomination. The only remotely good bit is Luke and Rey and that's a hollow shell of the original, pre-disney, sequel plan.
>>696963678Just because I would watch the anime of this does not mean I wouldn't admit its trash.
>>696949001Correction: George Lucas killed Star Wars with Ewoks and terrible poorly written prequels. She and Disney just puppeted around the corpse and made it do absurd things to milk any last dollar out of it.
>>696949239White Women
>>696955901Yes, writers need to ask permission for big shit like bringing back EU content, even then they need to make it DEI and pg appropriate. That's why you have gay shit like the Inquisitors instead of Starkiller or Mara Jade. It's fine when you change glob shitto from green to blue but don't you dare bring back darth talon
>>696955243Clones were cool as fuck and Im tired of people pretending AotC was shit. Literally everything from jango fett, kamino, clone training and deployment on geonosis was fucking KINO. But people cling on to the "i hate sand" scene as if the 120 minutes were all about anakin and padme prancing around naboo
>>696948924What games could you even make based on the sequels? There's not much inbetween.
after that obi wan show concludedthere was some star wars convention that happened or some shit and christian haydensen was invited to show up because he was in the showwhen he went on stage the crowd went wild and he got to the verge of crying because of how moved he wasi can't imagine how happy that must've made him considering he hasn't had a career whatsoever EVER outside of the prequel trilogy where everyone shat on him for his acting
>>696958806I imagine this is in large part to the international market. The third world eats CGI up, look at the Cape shit success. Anything with full background CG to transport them from their awful lives somewhere else. This is also why avatar did so well
>>696963961SW was always meant to be sword & sorcery but in space
>>696964036He got blown up and dismembered a lot, so it took the edge off.
>>696963954>Rey wants to stay on Jakku and is actively resisting the call to adventure for most of the film, when Luke was trying to leave and jumped at the chance to become a Jedi >Finn is pretending to be a hero while he's actually a coward who just wants to bail, Han was a hero pretending to be a scoundrel>Darth Vader was a powerful, high-ranking Dark Jedi who fully believed in the Empire and sought to destroy the remaining Jed that inspired fear in his men, Kylo Ren is a emotional, unstable psycho who doesn't actually buy into his own hype, is only LARPing as a Dark Jedi to get back at his dad. He isn't respected and bickers with Hux Now you're just gonna go NUH UH FUCK OFF SHILL REEE so I don't even know why I'm bothering, here
>>696964063But Star Wars was alive and thriving between 1983~1999 and 1999~2015?
>>696963961it's not science fiction i don't think. but space opera. it's not like they spend any time whatsoever with technobabble to explain how different shit works in universe
>>696964036C3P0 isn’t shoved in your face and being annoying as shit for most of the film. Jar Jar straight up eclipses most of the cast of episode 1 in terms of screen time.
>>696963904>Old Republic Eraman I'm playing through kotor for the first time and that anon who told me I would miss a lot was NOT lying holy FUCK
>>696964137I love CGI clones running in a straight line at CGI robots while ugly lights flash everywhere
>ClonesShit>DroidsRuined cause 'lol I need my comic relief!'
>>696963971Mary Sue male characters are more well written than Mary Sue female characters 100% of the time. Women are less interesting than men by default, because they live life on easy mode. A woman suddenly having to struggle at something is just discovering what it's like to be a man for a short time.
>>696964163His inclusion was such bait. Whats the point of having him in for one flash back scene with the rest of his time being in the suit with an AI voice over him
>>696964246Oh man, slight differences that mean fuck all to the plot because it plays out anyway. Im sorry its only 95% the same movie. You are right. Completely different. How dare I compare the two.
>>696964394i mean, what did you expect? he's darth vader at that point?
>>696963961It's not sci-fi you twit. You're looking at romance and wondering why there are no explosions and fast cars you idiot. What's next? Baaaah, bikini armor doesn't block anything. Yeah no fucking shit, that's not the point. God people are so retarded it hurts.
>>696964084>the Inquisitorsgoddamn probably the shittiest idea and they keep reusing them even when they are all losers
>>696964246>He isn't respected and bickers with HuxA guy tells Vader to his face that his religion is horseshit in a staff meeting and when he retaliates it only makes it clear that Tarkin's in charge. Like when a fucking 19 year old girl says Vader is Tarkin's pet on a leash.
>>696964258It was thriving because of toys and video games, yes. Once disney took over all of the toys became crappy baby shit, driving all of the collectors off, and the video games are all terrible social justice garbage.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RzOHa3AP6oE
>>696963961You can only say that because you were born decades after it became a thing. Its like looking at Tolkein and saying how bland the setting is.
>>696963961>it's science fictionlol no it's not
>>696964067>white
>>696964258It took about 10 years after RotJ before Zahn and the Thrawn trilogy. It was kind of dead, or at least mostly out of the public consciousness, for a bit.
>>696964137Clones was much better than PM because it doesn't have a child actor in a lead role ripping off redline but infinitely worse for 20 minutes.
>>696964489They also have a stupid rule of Vader and Palpatine being the strongerest of strongest so there hasn't ever been a villain even close to their power in disney canon
>>696949001>killed star wars>killed indiana jones>still has workdoes she have dirt on some disney exec or something? otherwise it doesnt explain why she is still in charge
>>696949239A goiter?
>>696963079The prequels expanded the universe ten thousand times more than the sequels did.We don't even know if Rey was a slave or not.
I really like Grievous even though he’s a huge jobber.If they still made good Star Wars games my dream game would be a good droid commander RTS.
I remember saying when the buyout happened that Disney would ruin SW. Got shot down by /v/ermin, /tv/ tards, redditors, even people I knew personally. I dont wanna say I feel vindicated by my stance 11 years later but its kinda hard to feel sorry for the people who are only now starting to hate them for destroying the IP
>>696964767that star wars empire at war game has a super popular mod where you can play as the droids. look into that
>>696964440Star Wars is just George Lucas ripping off the serials he watched as a kid and the movies he watched in college. if you want something brand new look elsewhere
>>696963079the sequels are just badthe force awakens had a chance but then they ruined it with the whedon quip after the stormtroopeprs slaughter the village and rey does her girlboss shit with finn
This fucker is to blame for a lot of things going to shit. Ever since he crawled his ass out of the sarlac pit, now everyone is surviving being stabbed, shot, cut in half. Stupid space man
>>696964752the prequels make the star wars universe a smaller, dumber placeYou can't say it "expanded the universe" when it retconned Darth Vader into the most important person who ever lived and the entire setting now revolves around Space Jesus
>>696963331>The Force Awakens was universally belovedkill yourself retard
>>696964990the original sin was bringing back Darth Maul in the cartoon for babies and the fanboys eating it up.
>>696964990Mandafags ruin everything
>>696965012If the prequels made the universe smaller and dumber, what does that mean the sequels did? The whole trilogy takes place over a year, and they somehow act like The First Order took over THE GALAXY of TEN THOUSAND PLANETS over that time with no weapons and defeated by a few hundred ships.
>>696964990Bringing a popular character back from the dead is one of the lowest forms of fan service desu. Its almost never done well.
>>696960956i spat out my drink because of the samuel l jackson shhiiiiiiiieeeeeeeee
>>696964696she doesn't have power. the shareholders do
>>696949543>elon musk.jpg
>>696964990>>696965090It was bringing palpatine back on those shitty comics
first thing to do if you want to fix star wars:RETCON the stupid chips the clones have
>>696964906I’ll check it out, thanks.
Filoni Wars ruined prequels
>>696965184The first two sequels don't frame the resurgence of the First Order as the most important thing that ever happened in the history of the universe and don't become a ball and chain around the rest of the franchise because everything has to justify its existence by relating back to it the way the prequels do. Post-Phantom Menace, everything in Star Wars needs to relate to the prophecy of Space Jesus or fanboys bitch and moan about it
>>696949001Stupid childless hag cunt, truly the best person to run THE geek franchise
The prequels are beautiful looking but they are just as terrible as anything else post-OT. Like in the first one baby darth vader blows up a mini death star and then there's that comic relief caribbean lizard man. Ewoks rotted George's brain. It almost makes me want to "lose the will to live."
>>696965350the chips were a necessity as soon as the cartoon decided that the clones were distinct personalities with human relationships instead of flesh droids.
>>696965484Where do they poop
>What I remember about the rise of the Empire is...how quiet it was. During the waning hours of the Clone Wars, the 501st Legion was discreetly transferred back to Coruscant. It was a silent trip. We all knew what was about to happen, and what we were about to do. Did we have any doubts? Any private, traitorous thoughts? Perhaps, but no one said a word. Not on the flight to Coruscant, not when Order 66 came down, and not when we marched into the Jedi Temple. Not a word.
>>696964341this but unironically. Try being less jaded and contrarian, you might enjoy something for once in your life
i for the first time decided to go through all star wars movies in their release orderwhen i was going through the prequels. i was super fucking surprised that the kaminoans only had made 200k clone troopers (with a million on the way)liek how many untold trillions are there living in the star wars universe? and the army that got created only tops out at 1.2 mil soldiers? numbers are wack
>>696965484>prequels are beautiful looking
The Prequels were flawed but fun, and got better with each one to the point where RotS is slightly better than ANH.The Sequels are extremely flawed and boring, and got worse as they went on.
>>696948924The sequel trilogy is a creative black hole full of nonsensical lore and world building. Its near impossible to create a game within its universe because of how ridiculous it is
>>696948924The prequels themselves are very spotty but their influence on the franchise is undeniable, they pretty much built the entire extended universe, before them Star Wars was just white hallways and wookie christmases, the larger scope of the prequels ignited the imagination of lots of people who then created lots of great things based on them.
>>696965623Battlefront 2 is so much more kino than any other version of events. No mind control or brain washing just soldiers coldly following orders.
>>696948924I want the old republic back. Just played KOTOR1 and 2 for the first time. Kinda rushed, but they were awesome. So much better than the stuff we get now.
>>696965713could be worsemuch worse
>>696965437The First Order are literally responsible for erasing 5 planets and being led by someone who turned Ren to the dark side. They are an important faction that's never explained where they came from, why they formed, or how. That's a million times worse than just "a prophecy" that is basic cause and effect. Terrible writers are the reason they keep bringing Skywalkers into everything, not the fans.
>>696966004>casting women to do a pretend sword fightTwo random kids on the street would be more impressive than this garbage.
>>696966004That is prequelcore though. In fact, the TV show that spawned those hags looks almost as bad as that.
>>696965752Fun is the key here, because good games have to be fun before anything else. Can't make a good game if there's no fun. The Lego Star Wars game hardly even followed the Sequels because they suck.
>>696965265The ultimate example of rage personified to such a degree he wasn't even intended to be Palpy's real apprentice but just an abused murder tool to be used up surviving through pure Dark Side seething and losing his mind and a decade of his life in the process works fine, but it should be the exception not the rule. Something that worked under very specific circumstances to further fuel this one very specific character. Maul was unlike most other Force users, it's not like you could imagine Dooku raging so hard he'd survive without legs for years and likewise even though like Maul most fans asked for it Lucas never resurrected Windu or countless others.Then things like pic related started happening a decade+ later, and suddenly Maul didn't seem so unique after all.
>>696964990>Ever since he crawled his ass out of the sarlac pit,He did that in the EU too. Just sayin'
Force awakens and Last Jedi take place over like 4 days. Good luck making a game
>>696963331>The Force Awakens was universally belovedNot by me, I saw the writing in the wall the second that shit started playing.Mary Sue girlboss cunt protag, character arcs that get concluded the moment they barely got started, incompetent laughable villains and a story that does not follow organically from episode 6 because it's just a shitty reboot and not an actual sequel, TLJ is shit, but all the building blocks of that disaster were already laid out in TFA.
>>696965529>nessecitynot at all, they could have written a decent conflict that explains why some clones would follow order 66 and some dont, maybe even help some jedi to escape the massacre and then that would lead to palpatine realizing the clones are not worth it i stead the chips just make them chimp out and takes away any character development they could havewe were robbed of good content
>>696966004Imagine being so bad at choreography that you make Seagal look like a samurai
>>696965708>liek how many untold trillions are there living in the star wars universe?Depending on how many planets are actually inhabited and what the average population is it could be in the quadrillions.
>still no star wars game where i can pound sweet twi'lek or togruta pussy for shame
>>696966418This is so bad that it's good.
>>696966425many months ago, i somehow ended up on the star wars wiki page of some race from outside the galaxy that invaded the star wars galaxy500 trillions people diedso yeah, most likely in the qaudrillionswhich begs the questionwhy the fuck is the clone army so small in size lmao. leading countries today have bigger armies than that
>>696965851>No mind controlThe game came out after Ep. 3, even if not stated out loud by a clone looking at the camera it was safe to state both events were correlative not exclusive with one another
>>696965708don't look up CIS numbers
>>696966428Orange Trainer fucking sucks. A given being a trainer and all, but worth emphasizing.
>>696966591qrd? i have no idea what to search for
>>696966004Looks about as convincing as AEW womens matches. Pretty much the peak of womens action choreography t b h. I don't think it's physically possible for them to get much better than this
I must have just started tuning out what was going on past a certain point because I barely remember what even happened in any of the sequel trilogy movies.I can pick out at least one memorable part from any of the older movies despite not watching them in years, but the sequel trilogy is all just a blur. None of the characters stood out to me and the plot is a total nothingburger. Its no wonder these movies failed to garner any sort of cultural foothold because they are the cinematic equivalent of white noise.
What was your reaction to pic related?
>>696966721Sure they do, Rosario is just awful. They'll cope about Kurosawa "homage" but it's bullshit.
>>696966316Yeah it's 3-4 days between the beginning and ending of TFA, then TLJ takes place entirely within a single day because you have that line about how the Rebels' fuel will only last 18 hours
>>696966664the numbers of droids were in the trillions and getting more advancedthe jedi were lucky they never mass produced 4 meters tall super battle droids
The Star Wars sequel trilogy is a prime example of why you never hire a british female actress to be your lead, no matter what is offered or how much she is obviously dicksucking execs behind the scenes.Female british actresses and people in general are the worst kind of people to exist in any media for any leading role or anything besides supporting cast. It will always lead to people despising them if they aren't 10/10 coomer bait-tier in appearance.
>>696966418Western Kiryu... I kneel...
>>696964696She was Lucas secretary for like 20+ years. Odds are she knows where the proverbial bodies are buried.
>>696948924Because the prequels came out during 5th/6th gen when you could shit out a game in a year so there was a lot of leeway to do all kinds of shit with a generous IP.Budgets in the HD age are measured in tens or hundreds of millions of dollars. It's a hard sell to get that many people on board, and with what we know of Disney wanting their cut from Spider-Man 2, the demands are probably exponentially high.
>>696966941The movies would still have been bad even with a different lead actress
>>696966936then how the fuck were there even 1% chance of the droids losing anything?
>>696966827They fly now?THE FLY NOW
>>696966827I laughed out loud, which was the generalized reaction in the theater, I mean, what the fuck, and thwn they open the goddamn blast gate while everyone is just standing there.
>>696967049palpatine basically
>>696967049ridiculously incompetent leadership and being sabotaged from the inside by ovaltine
>>696966827I love how the movie and the sequel don't even acknowledge that this happened, as if it never did
>>696967049Ever seen a villain that is super duper strong? So strong in fact that he can solo the entire cast? Well, the writers failed and now you need deus ex machina to fix the problem
>>696967049Incompetent leadership as I'm fairly sure Grievous was the only decent general CIS had
>>696966827confusion, then laughter, confusion again, anger, then sadness when her actress passed away imagine this being your last scene while alive, then confusion againlike seriously what is she doing? she force pulling herself towards the ship?
>>696967150>>696967262andwhy would palpatine feel the need to do some 16d chess move making it so the CIS loseswhen they have untold trillions of non breathing troops at the ready vs 1.2 million clone troopers?
>>696966028>what was Snoke's tax policy?
>>696967376who?
>>696948924Disney want all the money that comes from THEIR projects, so they won't make or allow games to be made from their licenses. Lucasfilm at least explored options in great studios with an open mind and it paid off for us in the long run.Fuck Disney though, they haven't goddamn clue what they are doing with or to Star Wars any more.
>>696966827I still don't understand why this scene makes virgins so hysterically angry
>first order literally kidnapped MILLIONS of children across the galaxy>even Lando’s kid>new republic doesn’t care and claims they don’t exist and proceed to demilitarize itself How dumb was this shit
i recently watched phantom menace and was surprised how much i liked it. i think its a pretty good movie.
>>696967365he wanted the power to himself, not difficult to explaincant have that when your ally can easily drop a billion droids on your ass on a random day
>>696966827>The only original character they kept alive in the movies, died in real lifeWas it pottery?
>>696967452I don't understand why women pull this cope every time they're laughed at. They're made of glass.
>>696967607but he basically did? he was controlling the CIS top leadership by himself? they were doing everything he wanted to do at the drop of a hat lol
>>696963048no way old harvey weinstein didn't dump a few gallons in her for some backdoor deals
>>696967049Back then economics mattered in Star Wars, Palpatine couldn't just pull a First Order out of his ass, he needed the Republic's resources, hence the decades-long plan to create the Empire, similarly, the Federation couldn't just endlessly pull droids indefinitely, at one point production would have ended as their funds dried up.
>>696949939>Movie games are deadThat's because the idiots running the circus now want it the OTHER WAY. To drag casual audiences in.Sonic the Hedgehog 3 (December 20, 2024), Minecraft Movie (April 4, 2025), Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 (Dec. 5, 2025), Street Fighter (March 20, 2026), The Super Mario Bros. Movie 2 (April 3, 2026), The Legend of Zelda (TBA), Ghost of Tsushima (TBA), Until Dawn (TBA), The Sims (TBA), Gears of War (TBA), Mortal Kombat 2 (TBA), Return to Silent Hill (TBA), Death Stranding (TBA), Days Gone (TBA), Dredge (TBA), Pokemon: Detective Pikachu 2 (TBA), Stray (TBA), BioShock (TBA), Space Channel 5 (TBA), Comix Zone (TBA)They're all movies either from this year or planned for the future.
>>696967705i had no idea george lucas infantile writing also included GRRM tier background lore
>>696949939First game was fun, just do NOT try to 100% it by getting all chests/data whatever, it's a lot of looping the worlds when they're sterile and empty, it hurts it.Never played second one, felt like it was made too quickly, so I trusted my gut instinct and avoided it.
>>696961467heh.
>>696967645Disney wanted those toxic males like Luke and Han out of the way for Leia. Unfortunately she liked coke too much. God has a sense of humor in
>>696960254>Now the prequels are FAR from perfectThey're total fucking dogshit and you are a contrarian. The plots were nonsense, the dialogue was shit and boring, and the acting was stilted and wooden. There's very little that's worth salvaging from them beyond the setting. >Some actors like Ewan or Jackson made it work, Ewan was mediocre. Jackson fucking sucked. Not his fault though, the character was absolutely nothing and George was a terrible director.
the dunk that killed Star Wars just like he killed Sauron
>>696966827>well Carrie's dead, I guess they had to- what the fuck
>>696964137The clones were fine, the plot was boring as fuck. If it were some kind of an actual war movie where shit was really getting wild people wouldn't dislike it. The only thing I cared about when I saw it was the end fight against Dooku and I thought it fucking sucked compared to what the commercials were hyping you up on it.
>>696964443I expected some flashbacks about him. What I didn't expect is a sassy kid Leia
>>696965708You forgot the clones are made from one of the best Mandalorians to ever exist, especially in the EU if you read up on Jangos past. One clone has the best physique, training, mentality that money could possibly buy. Be different if you cloned 200k 4channers.
was anakin in the right when he killed the tusken?
>>696967784Nigger, the one thing everyone had against the prequels was all the political and economics talk.
>>696967985For comparison, the United States fielded about 16 million men in World War II, that includes combat and auxillary roles. That was for one war on two continents and some islands in the South PacificThat a war that spanned an entire GALAXY could be fought with anything less than BILLIONS of troops, minimum, is absurd. Why wasn't Sheev just conscripting from the underworld of Coruscant?
>>696968072Completely. Jedi are evil for opposing it.
>>696968072No because he acted out of anger which is a no-no thing to do as a jedi
>>696966827You could've solved so much in this movie if you just added a line anywhere that they believe there might be a double agent on board.
>>696966827There was nothing wrong with this in theory, a jedi should be able to survive and move in space if only briefly. The problem is that the actress could barely move in the movie and was literally dead before it came out, and it makes no sense that Leia, or at least this version of Leia, would be able to do this. >>696967452Because it looks fucking stupid. It's also insulting that they pulled this stupid looking nonsense out of a plot hole to save a character who logically had no reason to survive beyond this moment in the story, acted by a woman who was on death's door in real life, while the actual Last Jedi got absolutely shafted by the plot for no reason.
>>696968072Obviously, they deserved total genocide. But it was lame and frankly fucking stupid for him to tell Leia about it or even feel conflicted about what happened. He should have gone back to the tattooine hostel with a smile on his face.
>>696963287>lol the ending of the first game made it feel like a giant waste of time. They destroyed the MacGuffin they spent the entire game searching for.i can't believe you got filtered by a disney game lol

>>696968181>>696968415There is literally nothing wrong with killing out of righteous anger. Where anakin fucked up was trusting a sith lord who had no proof of his claims and murdering the whole jedi order, kids and all, for absolutely no fucking reason.

>>696963685He just wants to wear stupid costumes. Seems like an actual nerd-dork-type, almost endearing. He did suck in everything else that he’s been in, to be fair, but also was more fun than Daisy in the shitquels, despite all odds.
>>696968585
>>696963331Even people who don't give much shit about Star Wars told me that when watching Force Awakens, the only thing they felt was "I saw this already". The only reason it made a ton of money was because it was a brand new Star Wars movie after a decade and without Lucas so potentially not as dumb as Ep 1 was. Anticipation was at the maximum.Last Jedi was fucking dumb and woke shit. Consider that, with the exception of Luke, every male was evil (everyone in the Empire, Benicio Del Toro's character), or at best constantly berated for fucking things up (Poe Dameron), while every female character was with the rebels, or making good decisions, or doing heroic sacrifices. And if they can take out super star destroyers by just hyperdriving into them with a ship 1/50th the size, then nobody in the galaxy would ever try to use large starships since an X-Wing could lightspeed kamikaze into the bridge (or even just have an R2 do it, they won't even need a pilot) and that would be the end of the Empire.At least they managed to give Luke a decently impressive end, I'll give them that, wish it wasn't against a linkin park fan with a lightsaber.
>>696968742Carrie Fisher was fucking terrible in all three of the sequels. Because she was literally dying IRL. If they wanted her back for an active role, they needed to make the movies at least 10 years earlier. >a bloo bloo Luke was sad He wasn't sad, he was a fucking loser, and a villain
>>696963678damn...
>>696967365Because he wanted to make his evil empire and not Dixieland but with Megacorps.
>>696968742Not that anon, but I might have been in the minority that didn't mind the hologram Luke fight. The death was pretty lame, but I liked the fight.
>>696948924>that the prequel era was universally hatedBy a small minority of AT AT clappers
>>696953240Eh it's been 5 years since the last SW sequel movie and the most people talk about is the lampooning of the "somehow Palpatine is back" line. People don't really care about the sequel movies which is worse than being disappointed by them the way the prequels were.
>>696968830>later canonically mentionedfortnite is canon in star wars?
>"I dislike anyone who uses the term 'Mary Sue' because it's sexist, everyone uses it to complain about women and there's no male counterpart"Yes, she said that. Yes, this bitch is THAT fucking dumb.So please, remember that it's always morally correct to bully her and make fun of her for her inability to have children. Next time you see her posting anything online, just reply to her with "you're infertile lmao". Dumb cunt.
>>696969060Yes
>>696968910The sequels being made in the 90s may have worked but they came many many years later, after tobacco killed Hamills voice and cocaine killed Fishers looks. Ford just became grumpier and richer.
>>696969065>and make fun of her for her inability to have childrenThat's a bit mean
>>696948924>Isn’t it kinda weird that the prequel era was universally hated but gave gamers tons of games to play but the sequel era has gave us nothing?Not weird at all. The prequel movies, despite having many flaws, were still overall a positive experience for fans (probably helped by the 3rd movie being the best one) and because the events of the prequels added a lot of life to the settings. The prequel era and Order 66 are actually a great playground for all kinds of ideas and scenarios. This is why a lot of games used that era and settings, hell it's why even new Star Wars games today use the prequel era setting (Jedi Fallen Order etc).What do the sequels offer? A worse rehash of the OT setting and events, with really nothing interesting happening. Why make a game set in that time or situation?
>>696969190Do I look like I give a fuck
>>696967876Go to sleep JJ
>>696969065She gives off yandere psychopath vibes
>>696969223The prequels were a total fucking trainwreck for anyone over the age of ten but>The prequel era and Order 66 are actually a great playground for all kinds of ideas and scenarios. This is absolutely true. As fucking terrible as the movies are, the settings and general premise of what's happening are PERFECT for telling basically infinite stories about all sorts of shit
>>696969065she cant have them?
>>696963752>This is so obvious. I actually read the Twilight books and I'm dead fucking serious. They weren't amazing, and they were even predictable, but they were entertaining enough to finish.The movies are basically just live action shonen jump shit.
>>696969289The sequels are shit too. And more importantly, intentionally shit, rather than just lazy and poorly executed. But I will not tolerate prequel revisionism.
>>696968542I know you don't have a sane mind.
>>696948924It's really simple, prequel era was a fertile garden for side stories with an interesting setting waiting to be explored, the fuck exists in the sequel era when the "New Republic" literally collapses from a single planet getting nuked by the "not empire"? They've figuratively salted the earth in that setting and there's jack shit to explore.
>>696949001Star Wars was already dead.The cunt only profited over the corpse.
>>696948924Nothing good came out of either era, though. Lots of games in the prequel era doesn't mean good games. In fact, the 2 best games (KotOR 1 and 2) were pulled out of whole cloth from thousands of years before.
>>696969353Theres a screencap on /tv/ from someone who said the same author made a genderswapped Twilight thats basically a harem anime.
>>696969353People just hate things to be cool anon. I never hated Bieber either. He was just trying to make money for his mom, doing what he was told. Poor kid.
>>696960790>then drop a dirty bomb on the old republic eraThe acolyte is not the old republic era, its the "High republic" era just 100 years before Phantom Menace so they could use Yoda and early PT characters
>>696969353GLACIERS MELTING IN THE DEAD OF NIGHT
>>696960254The prequels were universally hated by hardcore fans, and were considered flawed but still pretty fucking good by the normal fans. For normies it was just more Star Wars.I recall Jar Jar and the midichlorians being what offended the most fans, maybe Anakin already having R2 and C3PO for no fucking reason other than so they can still be in the movie. Midichlorians was arguably in direct conflict with the role.Ep 2 was more loved since it had less bullshit and more action, and Ep 3 was... divisive since Anakins fall was kind of really fucking stupid (he goes from "I want to save my girlfriend" to killing infants in like half an hour of time).But I admit that it has been way too fucking long since I saw either, and Ep 1 was probably the one we saw the most, I remember Ep 2 and 3 a lot less.And yeah, the worldbuilding and turning a few references into actual events was the best part.Ep 7+ had none of that, they couldn't even decide which way to go from one movie to the next, they had to bring back the emperor as the bad guy when they had no clue what to do next after Last Jedi.
>>696958378>dunked onAYO HE DUNK IN BAKKETBAWL YO YO YO
>>696969514gee you don’t say
>>696963678This is literally just an isekai harem story
>>696964990He had a cool hat and this shit was always meant to sell to everyone. Not really a surprise. I’d wear that hat. One of the best OG designs despite him barely being a character at all. “Cool-hat-killer-guy.” Alright, works for me.
>>696953240>Looking at how contrarian people tend to be I give it a year or two before the sequelsYou know TFA was released in 2015? where are these guys? or we need to wait another decade for that to happen?
>>696963971When you take ALL the games between Dark Forces to Outcast as a single arc, Kyle is absolutely not a mary sue, it takes him in four games + one expansion to get where Rey is at the end of TFA
How did everything go so wrong with the sequel trilogy? I heard the writer even proudly said in an interview he didn’t even watch the originals.How did any of this shit get greenlit?Why couldn’t they have adapted the existing expanded universe or something?And how the fuck did anyone think killing off the Skywalker bloodline would do anything but piss off the few fans that had any ounce of hope in them?
>>696963678>>696968937>being passed around women stronger than you with no agency whatsoeverWhat is the appeal, being the center of attention?
>>696969592>and were considered flawed but still pretty fucking good by the normal fansNo, they weren't. They were considered weird and boring and stupid. Because that's what they are, even to someone with only a passing familiarity with star wars going in. >Ep 2 was more loved since it had less bullshit and more action, Episode 2 is the worst one and was worst received at the time. Partially because it had the most nonsense plot, but mostly because the padme and anaking scenes are FUCKING INTOLERABLE. I cannot stress enough that it might be the most awkward, embarrassing interaction ever put on film. And between two talented and attractive actors, no less!
>>696958378What was wrong with the Hobbit?
>>696969842Being wanted for who you are. Are you autistic?
>>696969891The first Hobbit movie is alright
>>696969842The appeal is being desired by those who would be themselves considered desirable. Obviously this kind of thing is a bit decadent and self absorbed, which is why it makes up 99% of all female targeted romance novels.
>>696953741>because the video game market was still in the wild west phase where people experimented and shit and a lot of genres and shit weren't cementedThat was the PS1 era not PS2
>>696963678>>696963752I mean did anyone not notice Twilight was some harem fantasy with the genders reversed? I noriced straight away it wasn’t much different from some anime 2 powerful girls would gun for the protagonist.
>>696969753They were actual, and I hate to use this buzzword “humiliation rituals.” They weren’t made with a plan in mind and everyone from the writers, directors and actors hated being on it. The original SW is a simple heroes journey, the prequels are a Shakespearian tragedy…what do the sequels do? Shit on all of that with characters nobody liked. Meanwhile Darth Maul, Grievous, Windu, Count Dooku all had fans from their debut and beyond. Who are the Phasma fans?
>>696969998Judging by that post, a bunch of people just love and hate everything based on popular opinion.
>>696969906do you think a 30+ year old being together with a 16 year old chick does it because he's genuinenly smitten with her personality?lmao
George Lucas is a faggot for selling his masterwork to Disney and yet everyone blames muh evil womyn.
>>696970120What you get for shitting on the prequels.George had the last laugh.
>>696949543>I am the dummy thicc.
>>696969998>>696970070The reason that twilight was hated is because the execution of the premise is cringeworthy and creepy, the effects were bad, and the costumes and makeup looked homosexual.
>>696970082It's a book anon. The idea of an age gap for a mystical vampire doesn't bother me. What are you even doing here? Are you seriously going to preach to me about this shit on 4chan? Are you the "ayo" posts on youtube?
>>696969906>Are you autistic?I don't get it, so I might be. That's not how it works for men. It's not even a power fantasy of getting these women through competence or achievement. It's like a retarded reverse-harem.
>>696955730Weird because since George is not in the entire thing sucks, they even bring back the Empire Strikes back director and guess what? his shit sucked!
>>696970120If Disney didn't put women in creative roles then the sequels would have been better.
If there's a silver lining to the agonizing death of Star Wars it's that I went back and checked out a ton of old sci-fi to fill the void and found a whole world I was ignorant of my entire life. Good stuff out there anons if you look.
>>696970343The effects certainly weren't great, but compared to the shit we get nowadays it's a masterpiece. As long as you don't take everything so seriously it can be relatively entertaining, albeit not art or anything. A pretentious fop can't enjoy anything, and whether that's a good thing or not is up to you.
>>696970354Of course that's not how it works for men. Did you notice that the main character also isn't a man?
>>696966313But this is wrong, they were never popular
>>696970470Except it's not entertaining. It's embarrassing and ugly and, again, gay looking. It also doesn't take itself very seriously, with lots of bad attempts at levity, so it's hard to enjoy even ironically.
>>696967645Was it true they all passed her around?
>>696970453Women can only create two things. Sex novels, novels with sexual tension out the ass but less sex, and conflict. Wait that's three things.
>>696966004At least they are not CGI ragdolls.
>>696970657You don't have to like it anon. I don't even particularly like it, but I can watch it. I don't really know what you want to prove to me. So uhhh, good for you I guess? I don't really know anon.
>>696970461>reads scifi to fill the void of Star Wars, which is fantasyWeirdo.
>>696970662I'm sure her love for drugs helped with that
>>696964303>C3P0 isn’t shoved in your face and being annoying as shit for most of the filmDid we watch the same movies? C3P0 and R2D2 are shoved in your face since minute 1
Kept you waiting huh?
>>696958779There was massive support across the population and all of mainstream media for that retarded war, you monkey.
>>696963331Not by fans, only by boomers who clapped at geriatric Solo
>>696949836>an exclusivity deal with ea that lasted for 10 yearsYeah, 20 years ago.
>>696963331>The Force Awakens was universally beloved and made a ton of money.nice try but please don't attempt to rewrite history
>>696967778>Comix Zone (TBA)wait, fucking really? the Sega game? can that even work today, given that the game was basically everything cool from the 90s put together?
>>696964804People expected the MCU treatment where they would adapt the best parts of the EU and fix the mistakes like resurrecting Palpatine (Lmao how that ended in a movie)
>>696969749Disney wars will never have a moment like this
>>696970050Man reading this makes me miss those things. A few days ago the secenth movie was airing and it was so simple but meaningful. Shit like Luke noticing when he bested Vader that he had a prosthetic hand like himself, realizing falling to the dark side would make him become his father, the callback to that spiritual cave where when he beat Vader it was his own face under the helmet.There was a simple message that worked perfectly before the prequel nailed it further with Anakin’s journey being the opposite of his ignoring all the warnings.Man I was originally sad they didn’t continue Force Unleashed but by now that is a mercy. Best for it to end in this gray area than continue under what Star Wars became
>>696963678
>>696968158>That a war that spanned an entire GALAXY could be fought with anything less than BILLIONS of troops, minimum, is absurd.Not so much given that interplanetary travel is a whole lot more complex and expensive than sending troops across the ocean. That alone probably puts a hard cap on how many troops you can field, and you don't need billions of troops when you can basically bombard everything from orbit with Star Destroyers, not to mention the Death Star.Like consider the ending of Return of the Jedi, they have what, a hundred or two fighter planes on each side? WW2 Kursk had 3000+ tanks on both sides.
>>696948924The prequels were ahead of its time and even predicted the fall of American democracy.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-TSqjRgh2ZY
>>696972070>Like consider the ending of Return of the Jedi, they have what, a hundred or two fighter planes on each side?No, that's how many models they had. Canonically, there were thousands of ships there.
>>696969870well like I said, I haven't seen them in two decades, and even then I saw Ep 1 half a dozen times but only saw Ep 2/3 once. And for Ep 3 it was a cam rip. The only thing I really remember from the prequel trilogy is that CGI really pissed on it.Ep 1 had some great moments even despite the stupid story and Jar Jar. Duel of Fates was awesome and Darth Maul dropping the two-sided lightsaber was a big whoah moment.I've been wanting to re-watch Star Wars for a while now, I should do that some time. I have the original trilogy on Laserdisc, pre-special edition horseshit.
>>696970572thought we were talking about that genderswapped spinoff
>>696972454The darth maul fight is lame and only liked by five year olds. BUT, the podrace is genuinely fantastic even today. Just go watch that scene
>>696970120Lucas is 80 years old and just wanted to retire. I would've done the same in his place, and then spend the rest of my years cruising the planet on a yacht fucking underage pussy on international waters.
>>696972070>and you don't need billions of troops when you can basically bombard everything from orbit with Star Destroyers, not to mention the Death Star.The goal is to capture territory, not completely destroy everything.
>remember I complained that if Luke was so important then why didn’t Ben bother training him way earlier?>prequels show that by taking Anakin from his homeland and giving him jedi training straight away he got attached to the little he had and the weight of stress and power kept making him break rules and enter a slippery slope of obsession>Old Republic games further nail this is COMMON and the reason the Siths have endless numbers in spite of all the backstabbing is because tons of Jedi padawans either fall to the dark side due to that or when they fail to ascend>this retroactively justifies giving Luke that backstory because the Chosen One needed a childhood the most to grow as a normal person and value lifeI never gave the Old Star Wars the respect it deserved. Only after all the steaming piles of shit that came later that I realized how much it was worth
>>696959197>Not at the time, zoom zoom.Yes, he was hated, at the time. I used to have a t-shirt of him saying "worlds biggest terrorist". One of the Manu Chao live performance had the same quote too. Bush was considered a stupid monkey by the entire world.
>>696972846the jedi are retarded yes
>>696963971Yeah I know but at least huffing force ghost fumes toget superpowers was an actual plot point in Outcast.Outcast is fun sue me.
