How do we save Star Wars video games?
the new battlefront 2 is pretty fun
>>729011860Make Disney sell the franchise. They are utterly incompetent at video games
>>729011860More games with playable N1 starfighters
>>729011860By saving Star Wars first which would take a full reboot of a franchise at this point.
>>729011860You can't. Big companies have consolidated their power. They're not going to give it to some European AA studio.
You make a standalone game around BF2's galactic conquest mode. >Total War / Star Wars Empire at War tier overworld for planets with settlement building, diplomacy and fleet/agent movement>Much more customization for your fleets/armies, with tons of different unit types, vehicles and equipment >Much larger maps with unit/army orders ala mount and blade, Arma, SWAT, etc... >Could start with 1-2 eras and gradually add more (Old Republic, EU, etc...) with expansions/dlc
>tfw no cypberpunk 2077 clone on Nar Shaddaaits over
>>729011860>kill the mouse>do not consuuum>do not engage>every time you need to speak about pre-mouse era, tell how much it sucks dick now>distinct unoverse you love and fanfiction mouse universeI'm not even really SW fan, that just the common sense. There was a clear drop from the magic western in the space to the space: emPOWERment bogaloo
>>729011860most of them autosave.
>>729011860Just make star wars galaxies but not MMO with TPS combatfree money
Galactic Racer can save Star Wars vidya
Is the prequel movies worth a watch? I finished episode 456 last week. it was okay.
>>729011860by leaving the rat as far away from it as possible. Fallen order was okay
>>729011860Ritually sacrifice every single member of lucasfilm, inshallah
>>729011860It already has been saved.
>>729011860star wars is old trashy boomer garbage. better off without that slop.
>>729012574What? SWG as a non-MMO would fucking suck. The community was a big part of what made that game great. Even if you slapped Fallen Order / Jedi Survivor combat on it, there would be almost nothing to do but grind
>>729012748ep 1 and 3 are very good movies
>>729012768>CGI vaporware ripping off a shot from Alien (1979)>saving SW video gamesconsoomer cattle moment
>>729012859>The community was a big part of what made that game greatIt really was. I loved the player towns, players putting bounties on each other, esluts in cantinas offering buffs for money, people being paid to decorate houses for you etc. It was so good.
>>729012043EA or the remaster?
>>729012768KOTOR 1 & 2 are probably my favorite RPGs of all time. I usually hate replaying singleplayer games and can only manage to do it after 5+ years, but I've played the KOTOR games at least 10 times each. If this game is bad, I think that might be the final straw that makes me realize Vidya isn't for me anymore and it's time to find some more "adult" hobbies.
>>729012768Is that not the exact space jockey ship from Alien? I guess rights aren't an issue since Disney owns both, but is this game meant to be a Star Wars-Alien crossover?
>>729012963the one that came out like 8 years ago and had lootboxes removed since
I'm hyped.
>>729013030It's the Leviathan - the flagship of Darth Revan
>>729012958Yea SWG will always hold a special place in my heart. It was janky as hell, but the playerbase and sandbox elements made it such a memorable experience. Sad that MMOs are dead in general, but big budget Sandbox MMOs in particular have been a no-go zone for developers/publishers for almost 2 decades.
>>729013013>I think that might be the final straw that makes me realize Vidya isn't for me anymore and it's time to find some more "adult" hobbies.Probably best to start those hobbies now for your own sanity. You know it will be shit.
>>729012136Assuming you haven't played it, Rogue Squadron Battle for Naboo is way better than you would expect of a game with zero discussion online. It's worse than the other Rogue Squadron games, sure, but I thought it was a fun tie-in to the movie without retreading the film 1:1.
>>729013078I thought Selbulba died
>>729012859But then how do you avoid the MTX sinkhole? Looking at SWTOR they have a battlepass, ingame currency and subscriptionsOnly way i see it is to make it SP/Offline game, maybe copy death stranding "shared" world so that you still find player created cities and shops?Obviously i didn't mean a 1:1 copy of galaxies, mostly the early jobsystem, sandbox and the whole jedi unlock thing
>>729013561I think such a big game being limited to single player would be boring.
>>729013498Somehow, he has returned.
>>729013498>*sigh* SOMEHOWno one ever really dies anon, ep 10 will be about Qui-Gon's grand return
>>729011860Star Trek crossover game
>>729012768This
>>729012182the prequel era sucked ass but star wars games were great then
>>729013917I want to go back...
>>729013013you'll be waiting at least 4 to 5 years to find out
>>729011860Jedi Academy/KoTOR2 combination
>>729013967jedi academy has a pretty popular mod that gets played/updated still - Movie Battles 2i feel like there's a similar mod for Battlefront 2 but idk the name
>>729013078I'm cautiously optimistic. I always thought there was potential for a racer game with more story / lore (the planets in the original game are really cool), but I feel like it would have been better to start with known rather than move forward into an OT or ST time frame. That being said, it would be awesome to return to some of the old tracks and see how they have changed (like a derelict Oovo IV).
>>729014130They really need to hire the movie battles 2 crew to make it a standalone game with the single player story just being in game movies used as tutorial for multiplayer but upper management needs to go first imo.
>>729014290I'm disappointed its generic speeders and not podracers. Podracers were only hinted by the trailer, which tells me their pod racer models/physics suck. Also, they are going for hyperreal UE5 style, which means probably we won't get more than like 5-8 tracks at launch.
It's time to grow up.
>>729011860I thought Fallen Order and Survivor were alright.
https://youtu.be/_zMQl29mFoU?si=8nR8MfVo1A6UeZRR
>>729011860Reboot 1313.
>>729011860By making another game starring a jedi guy who saves the galaxy from a sith guy.
>>729013967Sadly I don't remember the Obi-Wan one. How was that?
>>729014814Not good.
>>729014814Janky and shit
>>729014712They were more alright than they realistically had any right to be, honestly. I hope the third one sticks the landing, if it even comes out at this point.
Shadows of the Empire, Rogue Squadron, and Episode I Racer were all great. The first one especially could have been a feature-length film on its own.
>>729014594Only a woman deals in maturity, I will do what I must.
>>729014814Of all the Star Wars games in the entire world, I don't ever see anyone talk about the Obi-Wan game. Even Yoda Stories get talked about more.
>>729011860>set game in Legends timeline>make a good game>not only a good star wars game>a good game periodthat is all, really
>>729013561At that point I think you're veering into the territory of this being its own thing and not just a remake of SWG. That being said, I do agree with you that a large scale singleplayer RPG with a class system as varied as pre-NGE/CU SWG would be great if they could actually fill the world with a wealth of handcrafted story content. Unfortunately that would cost way too much $ to be profitable, and you'd probably end up with a Starfield situation where planets are just empty husks full of procgen slop.
>>729014814It was average to shit but it had a fun battle royale mode against all the Jedi masters. Also I don't know why the cover art was green when Obi-Wan has a blue saber.
>>729011860Get rid of Disney
Expanded Universe, pre Disney slop Canon would be a great start. Where people actually cared about the lore.
>>729013078I'm glad they at least tried to make Seblobo old. It was stupid to see Cad Bane brought back in the boba show looking the exact same as he did in the clone wars where he was already like a grizzly 40 year old dude
>>729015249>Where people actually cared about the loreI love the EU but I wouldn't go that far. It was the wild west at times with people just making shit up as they go and retcons everywhere. I do miss the old EU though.
>>729015271>It was stupid to see Cad Bane brought back in the boba show looking the exact same as he did in the clone wars where he was already like a grizzly 40 year old dudehe was also looked fat which was gross
>>729015014Who's the Chiss and the wrinkly ass guy behind her and Ventriss?
>>729011860No DEI game with Jedi Academy swordplay.
>>729015014hot Chiss pussy
Gameplaywise how bad was Squadrons?
Isn't it kind of, I dunno, really fucking gay to still be clinging to star wars? Like drinking 5 gallon buckets of cum gay? This is the kind of thing that milennials in their 30s liked because their dad liked it, it already fell off 25 years ago. Get the marketing brain worm out of your head.
>>729015418>Who's the ChissSev'rance Tann.>wrinkly guySora Bulq - former Jedi
>>729015505Gameplay is the best bit about it.
>>729015418The Chiss is Sev´rance Tann, the female CiS commander you played as (and fought against) in the Star Wars Galactic Battleground: Clone Wars game. The Weequay is a fallen Jedi master who featured in the clone wars comics. Forgot his name
>>729011860If they could infuse a little deus ex and old assassin's creed and hitman into Andor type heists, hits, and surveillance missions it could be fun. Ideally stretched across settings a la Battlefront games for maximum creative liberty. That's my idea.
>>729015332You know what, that is fair. I at least really care. I mean think about it, "The New Jedi Order" series where Extragalactic aliens invade resulting in The New Republic and Imperial remanents joining forced and just barely wining the war with 365 trillion casualties is a awesome story. Disney couldn't even think of something of that grand scale.And yeah, 40 years of the EU was bound for retcons but Disney has done that too, even after creating the new canon that they created to deliberately avoid that. Threw out the EU just to take shit from it because they're incompetent. It honestly does anger me.
>>729015154Because it was an Xbox exclusive and everything Xbox was green. It helped it stand out on shelves as an xbox exclusive.
>>729011860alien dating sim
>>729015505Gameplay is fine. Its the lack of vehicles, boring maps, and pozzed campaign that killed it. The actual flying and shooter was pretty good.
>>729011860We don't need to. Let the entire Star Wars franchise die and be forgotten.
>>729015154It was xbox exclusive, the hence the green. Xbox was sovl back in the day. >>729015564> This is the kind of thing that x in their 30s liked because their dad liked it, it already fell off 25 years ago. You could be describing 40k a decade ago or Star Trek in general. Star Wars is "old" for you because the lack of content and Disney failing to get you as a fan.
>>729011860You don't. Star Wars is dead and a lost cause. Disney Lucasfilm is nothing but a cancer that hates everything about what made people love Star Wars and it is just an empty husk being used to push feminism, LGBTQ, and anti-Trump rhetoric.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oxlOoS4NmIAJust finish this. People want to play as cool characters
>>729016085Darth Icky!
Copy Hitman-freelance, and make a bounty hunter game. Large maps of familiar locations like Tatooine or Nar Shadaa. Character and gear customization. You just get dispatched to these locations just like Freelancer mode where you have a random target you need to kill and extract. They could add in different target types for variety, like assassinating a Jedi who would be strong and have a lightsaber, or assassinate politican with a big bodyguard contingent and body doubles, etc...
>>729014559I'm with you. I want to assume the move towards speeders was an aesthetic choice to be more in line with the OT, but it could easily have been a result of laziness or lack of talent. If the game ships with an online focus or a lack of content, it's pretty much DoA for me.
>>729016159I feel they would never commit to the grit that is needed for Nar Shaddaa. Outlaws proved that they skirt around the underworld of Star Wars and try to sanitize it massively.
>>729015875kys anime faggot
>>729011860unironically need more of this
>>729016159seconded, cuz it sounds a bit like my thing>>729015750let's start the kickstarter
>>729012384It would end up being closer to Necromunda hired gun anyway since Lucasfilm is so cagey with the licence
>>729016354>anime out of nowhere
>>729016347>they skirt around the underworld of Star Wars and try to sanitize it massivelyDoesn't bode well for the new racer game.
is Outlaws any good
>>729016795They patched it apparently.
>>729016795For the price it at now on sale, yes. It’s a classic Ubisoft game but there are fun elements in it. Especially the card game and the space elements of it.
>>729016795idk man you tell me
>>729016940Pre-patch?
>>729016971No amount of patching can fix that ugly ass potato face design, friend.
>>729017019Answer the question.
>>729016940I fail to see anything wrong with this screenshot. What's the point you're trying to make?
>>729015965>You could be describing 40k a decade ago or Star Trek in general. Star Wars is "old" for you because the lack of content and Disney failing to get you as a fan.All of it is shit, it's time to wake up and move on
>>729016483how many standard years do you need to consent in the galaxy?
>>72901707The game is unplayable for chuds because they can’t goon to the character
>>729017107>moving on>said by a brain rot zoomer/gen alol
make more Fallen Order/Survivor games but make Grandmaster the ONLY difficulty so casuals get filtered and it suddenly gains Sekiro praise
>>729015567>>729015621Cool. Thanks.
>>729016940such a waste of the snowdrop enginefor those of you that didnt know, its the same engine used from the division series
>>729017125Depends what planet your from and how long it takes to go around its star.
>>729011860>How do we save Star Wars video games?Set the clock back about 25 years.>>729013328Not many Battle For Naboo knowers/enjoyers. Glad to see I'm not the only one. I've never got all the Gold Metals on that one just because it penalizes you for using your lives. But I agree it's kind of an underrated game, and way better than Rogue Squadron III.
>>729017254I thought the game was very nice looking
>>729017256the standard year is the same one in the entire galaxy, you faggot, drop the pants now
>>729011860Go back 13 years and prevent Disney from stealing it from Lucas.
>>729013085why is it a wreak some rain planet, didn't malak parked it at the starforge or something
>>729017125i would think galactic standards are actually progressive unlike our earthly 'progressive' standardsthey'd probably have transcended traditional norms, and abolished rules about age of consent, instead treating it as just consent
>>729017254Waste of a sequel too. The atmosphere made most of the first game.
>>729017429It might be the planet the star forge was above which is full of ruined ships
>>729011860LET. CASEY. HUDSON. COOK.
>>729017358I'm not wearing any clothes. I'm on my computer naked with my hand on my dick.
>>729017595well if they're suggesting that rakata prime got fucked big time by star forge explosion then i guess that makes rakatans a bunch of retards and swtor parts of it isn't canon, which i guess i could be a good thing, but one of these days they gotta straighten the canon up it's a fucking mess as it is
>>729017818>actually physically touching yourselfskill issue
thankfully I don't think swtor is canon, fuck that shit (and the revan novel)
>>729011860Go back in time, prevent the EA exclusive deal, prevent ToR from being made, prevent Kennedy from getting her hands on Star Wars.
>>729018371It’s not but SWTOR is the last bit of fun Star Wars left. It’s as close to Lucassovl you’ll get these days
>>729018436Kennedy has had her hands on Star Wars since the beginning. She was Lucas's fucktoy since her days as an intern under him (literally under him)
give me free reign to make a diablo like arpg set in the star wars universe and ill save it.
>>729011860make a studio of gen x/millennial white and asian men only and make them make whatever star wars game they want
>>729011860Star Wars XCOM will save Star Wars vidya
>>729011860By making the next Dark Forces game set in the Yuuzhan Vong wars with much modding support as the other games and be made in the same style as the other entries. It could be called Dark Forces V: Jedi Knight IV: Jedi Outcast III: Jedi Academy II: New Jedi Order.
>>729011860Once Disney loosens the creative freedom moving away from the film era for games, we will get more interesting ones. Everything right now is set within the same short time period and it's creatively dull.
>>729018652>Yuuzhan Vong
>>729018734>Yuuzhan VongYes
>>729018567I'm surprised they haven't considered a diablo clone, especially with how many paypigs are currently playing the game
>>729011860The final game in the nuJedi trilogy should come out next year or early 2027, if they stick the landing it'll end up being an overall solid trilogy. Don't care about much else sadly, the new FOTOR thing is still years and years away.
>>729018701>Sequel Alienisn't that a Bothan in the bottom right (second to last)?
>>729019201No. Bothans no canon look right now
Release the original Battlefront 3 or "remake" the Super Starwars trilogy but with extra content
>>729011860Prevent him from killing Star Wars
>>729015014I miss old Ventress so much.
>>729013498There's an entire race of these fuckers
>>729020139Disney killed Star Wars not Lucas
>>729020221Same. Another victim of F*loni
Been playing KOTOR 2 for a bit and just got might 1st lightsaber on Nar Shadaa. At what level should I expect to be able to attempt play the game without any party members following me? Because I'm honestly getting my shit kicked in trying to play solo
>>729011860>How do we save Star Wars video games?fully modeled and profesionally animated porn of nightsister sex
>>729020658He sold it to Disney, and honestly the prequels still are pretty rough overall. I agree that a lot of the hate is overblown, but I still think Attack of the Clones is still the worst film in the series, if not tied with Episode 9.
>>729020816>Attack of the Clones is still the worst film in the seriesIt is. Nothing happens except bad dialogue until the last 20 mins on Geonosis. The prequels should've jumped straight into the clone wars and not wait until the last film to show them.
>>729020658Lucas made TCW which was the beginning of Nu Wars.
>>729020895Completely agree.
Star Wars but Warhammer 40k.
>>729020816It’s still better than anything of disney wars at least AoTC didn’t erase the entire Expanded Universe so it could be replaced with rat shit.
>>729013967>lego star wars II>leia front and center on the cover, showing off legs and visible cleavage>lego star wars: complete saga >leia front and center on the cover, this time half-nakedReminder that we literally cannot have something as inoffensive as a fucking "feminine" lego minifig anymore because the world has gone absolutely insane.I feel like a complete clown for even having to say this out loud, but here we are.
>>729021386It was called the New Sith Wars but Disney axed it in 2014.
>>729014712>>729014894You like playing with dog turds.
>>729021638as someone who considers myself left wing and has friends who are woke, even they are against this. The pre-emptive censorship of anything that may be offensive is annoying. Slave 1 being named Boba Fett's ship is another example
>>729013967Republic Commando does not hold up. The shooting is bad.
>>729011860Play as a imperial who doesn't defect
>>729021880>disney deliberately doesn't officially make a statement about it>community-infighting and paid gaslighting ensures
Like this
>>729022282unironically looking forward to them, if they ever release
>>729021909Sadly true. Really not very fun to go back to.
>>729022282Eclipse is vaporware, Kotor Remake is still up in the air if its canceled or not and Fotor is like 5 years away.
>>729021443>It’s still better than anything of disney warsIt's good if you have insomnia I guess. The Disney films are at least laughably bad at times. >at least AoTC didn’t erase the entire Expanded Universe so it could be replaced with rat shitI honestly think it's better just so you can separate the pre-3D Clone Wars era from everything that came after the Disney Wars/Filoniverse. Otherwise you Kurtzman Trek raping the version of the franchise you actually care about (if you still care at all anymore).
>>729022282You need to update it with the KOTOR 2 remake
>>729011860Aren't they all published by EA? You don't.
>>729023836Not any more. Disney pulled the exclusivity and made their own soulless version of lucasarts
>>729023884>Disney gatekeeping the IP two times not a surprised
>>729024304They rent it out to whoever. Like the old lucasarts
>>729011860you cant.(((disney))) killed it all
>>729023658I think it’s better to disregard any Star Wars made by the rat and see only the OT, PT and the entire the Expanded Universe as canon.
>>729025496I liked seasons 1 and 2 of The Mandalorian.
>>729025496For me, it's the One Sith
Does anyone play the EA Battlefronts?
>>729012043>NewThat came out like 8 years ago...
>>729025854Not on MP any more because it's full of jeet bots and cheaters. There are lots of good instant action mods though which I boot up every now and then.
>>729024378They rented it out to EA on the condition that they don't make games unless ordered. Under Disney, the plan was never video games but the theme parks.
>>729025954They didn't rent it to EA. EA had a ten year exclusivity deal that's now ended. That was before the new lucasfilm games situation
>>729020773to think a troon tried to break that
>>729025781to Rule Them All
>>729025781Tenebrous was right
>>729011860Star Wars is dead; Raped and slaughtered beyond repair by Disney.However, if you're still retarded enough to hang on and expect/desire good Star Wars games, then here's what you do: Get rid of EVERY black, brown, commie, jewish, foid, and homosexual/tranny developer.The result? Games go back to when they were good, when they were developed primarily by White men and East Asian men.
>>729025496Absolutely, been saying this for a decade now.>>729025575You're a faggot. The Mandalorian is slop for the fattest, gayest, most retarded, and blackest gorilla niggers.
>>729018652This would probably kill off SW
>>729025496This. The expanded universe stories have a better quality compared to post-2014 era.
>>729021909>>729023104Don't disagree. You play it for the vibes more than anything honestly.
>>729012748>456>he doesn’t know
>>729020734you are playing with TSLRCM... right?
>>729011860I'M SOLOI'M HAN SOLO
>>729028591>456>c'mon and get your kicks>now you don't need the money with a face like that>do you now
>tfw no open world mandalorian-like game in which you get and update your spaceship and get bounties and contractsno, the meh star wars: bounty hunter doesn't count
>>729028882You can thank the cowboy for dumbing down the bounty hunters and mandalorians, axing what the mando show should've been.
>>729028882sure there’s a Starfield conversion mod that does that
>>729012182Nah, just make the sequel non-canon and it'd get rid of most of the complainers except Mike
>>729028640Yes
>>729029061Good luck convincing people to play this game
>>729025781the twilek looks like she would be friends with maul :)
>>729029602looks good tho
My dream star wars game is a CnC crossover
>>729012574I want Swotor as a single player games. I wanted to like it but the game ends up feeling like kotor but with extra mmo fetch quest filler shit which isnt fun.
>>729028362No, it would save Star War especially Star Wars gaming
disney should have had more studios making games from the start and with less control, have them make rpgs, heist/crime story driven adventure games, fighters, shooters, spaceship sims, mount and blade/jedi academy clones etc., who cares about not soiling the ip with a bad game, it's fucking star wars, 90% of it is pure shit but if you struck gold with a good game the fans will buy it in droves, it's not by chance that the eu period where everyone was making shit up as they went along with much less creative control is so fondly remembered for its gems or diamonds in the rough
>>729029748It basically is a single player game tho
>>729030592Single player games are slightly more compelling than >"Collect 15 Hutt scrotums"
>>729030918are they though?
>>729011860You can't. Anything touched by disney wars is shit, no exceptions. Either turn the clock back or go find something new.
worth it?had it in the cart until i saw debra wilson in the trailer and then hesitated.
>>729033526Gameplay's comparable to Sekiro, so there you go. Also Merrin's cute.
>>729033526It's disney wars so it's an instant no if you have taste.
>>729033526yes
>>729033526it's fine, worth it at that price for sure
>>729020816>the hate is overblownthe prequel hate is directly responsible for what star wars is nowEveryone hated how the prequels weren't the OT, so disney started the ST with just copying ANH which just doomed it right then and thereWho knows, Lucas might not have even sold Star Wars if people didn't hate his movies so much
>>729023817>improved endingIf that means that the changed it entirely, fuck them because it was very fitting for the type of game and story k2 had. Expanding on it and giving it better pacing though, I would be down with that.
>>729033526Why does /v/ pretend to not like Debrah Wilson
>>729033982the hate for the prequels was for an entirely different problem than what most media faces todaythe prequels sucked in the sense that they broke the basic rules of filmmaking very often. like you'd have one character speaking in the first shot, the other character speaking in the second shot that looks identical to the first shot, and then the camera snaps back to the first character with exactly the same shot, things like that. and dialogue seeming wooden. those are big issues when you're expecting the movie to be competent and have standardsmovies now however don't have those problems, their problems are different. the scripts and the actors are being chosen by people who actively loathe the IPs they're supposed to represent, and it results in bafflingly bad storytelling that feels more audience-hostile than anything else. when you have such massive issues, something like bad camerawork feels like a non-issue in comparison
>>729011860https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5DAywBKyatcMore clone wars stuff. The original and sequel trilogy shit is boring.
I like Star Wars and am too young to give a shit about the EU

You literally cannot. You just have to accept it's literally over. There's no reversing what was done and the ubisoft game exemplifies all of the problems with modern star wars. It's a joke now, it's hard to describe what it is, but it's like the shittiest watered down parody of what star wars ever was. It takes an entire shift of the way of being of these companies to be something that would be in place in the early 2000s and anything less is too little.
Remake Dead Space but you use a lightsaber instead.
>>729039343Dead Space: Downfall had the plasma cutter as some sort of light saber device.
>>729039597That sounds fun. My autistic ass has just always imagined a hackNslash dead space even if it makes zero sense.
>>729033982Like what other anon said, the prequels are bad for the pacing, cinematography, acting, writing and the more technical elements. The sequels are bad because the people who made them reviled the audience, and many of the decisions made in the films were made out of spite for the previous director, or for the audience. That is the crux of what is wrong with TLJ and ROS. Does George, the man, deserve the hate because he sincerely tried and made a few mediocre movies? No. >the prequel hate is directly responsible for what star wars is nowTo some extent I don't really think the hate wore Lucas down. I think he lowkey was in on the memes as evidenced by the fact he put the infamous "nooooo" at the end of Return of the Jedi in the bluray version. I think it really comes down to the fact that he was 70 in '15, that there was still appetite for a new trilogy, and that he didn't want to spend his last decade on this earth making Star Wars movies.

>>729021909Having played through it again very recently, the shooting felt fine for me except with the scavenger droids, but they're always annoying.
>>729012748Not really. They were literally made for kids, unlike the OT where the tone felt somewhat more mature. George did not make the prequels for adults in any way, despite them having more action scenes and violence, because the CGI really makes it feel cheesy and all the character's motivations are kind of stupid and not well thought out, because George wanted to force his galactic conspiracy plot so bad. EP3 is arguably the best one, so just watch 1 & 2 for the sake of enjoying the 3rd.
