was kreia that good of a character to warrant such a long video essay?
>>
>>3998626
Autists can do hour long essays for anything and it is not indicative of quality or lack thereof.
>>
>>3998626
By video game standards sure
>>
longform video essays are really about monetization and engagement. people who fear the inside of their heads treat them as background noise during gaming, studying, or even sleep. the point is to pad the video time, to drone on as long as possible because the people clicking are looking for a long video. the subject is almost irrelevant.
>>
>>3998626
wait, what happened to that video? tried to find it all i can find is someone else's reupload

>>3999029
The guy got his account nuked for being an unrepentant pedo

What a piece of shit

that fact that you people know this tuber gossip shit and pay attention to it is fucking sad.
>>
>>3998626
It's not an essay. It's just a plot summary of Kreia's scenes
>>
>>3999073

The existence of pedos is sadder.

Yes, she was and it spawned an entire subgenre within Star Wars.

wow, such ambition and self-respect.
garbage in, garbage out.

I only know about it thru 4chan lol I dont keep track of these eshitters drama

No.
>>
>>3999155
it did not spawned an entire subgenre, i wish it did. not every star wars game had to be le goodie jedi vs le ebil sith
>>
>>3999441
You can't even capitalize or punctuate. You're a child. Shut the fuck up.
>>
>>3999441
It literally did, that is how we´ve got the KOTOR comics, New Sith Wars and Galactic Collapse.
>>
>>3998637
I somehow doubt the guy who did a massive defense of loli art is in it for the monetization.

yes

the author's motivation doesn't really determine the viewer's motivation

that has nothing to do with what i'm talking about, retard. i'm talking about the format itself, i'm sure other people copy the style without thought.
>>
>>3999441

Not every game was.
>>
>>3998626
Kreia was based because she's (still) one of the few characters in games to give any life to the "karma" bullshit forced on games when it never has any real fucking meaning. (HEY THIS MEANS YOU, MASS EFFECT)
She actually calls you out on doing shit just because its "bad" or "good" in direct response to the stupid gameplay prompts in speech choices.
While sometimes people get annoyed with her responses, thats the fucking point. You're annoying with your choices.
>>
>>3999155
Sadly not, and never will. Grey Jedi would be such a great concept for a game especially an rpg not that I want Disney to even know those are a thing.
>>
The butthurt that Kreia caused in moralfags, falsely seeing her as an Ayn Rand type, is hilarious. It exposed how they need reinforcement for their behaviour, there's no innate goodness in them.
>>
Another dogshit Chris Avellone mouthpiece character that got propped up really hard because your average Star Wars fan is a retard.

Yes. Only seething OT manchildren who peaked at age 12 would disagree.
>nuance in my Star Wars???

If they had their way we'd still be stuck with Saturday morning cartoon morality and the Disney trilogy's masterful

slop
>>
>>3999715
>Chris Avellone mouthpiece character
You don't know what a mouthpiece is.
Chris Avellone is a limp wristed moralizing Cali faggot. Kreia is merely a preachy character.
>>
>>3999744
>Yes. Only seething OT manchildren who peaked at age 12 would disagree.
>>nuance in my Star Wars???
>>complex philosophy???
Dude, Star Wars is fantasy wizards in space meets WW2 bomber flicks. There is no complex philosophy, it's "holding onto hate will rot you from the inside". The extent of the nuance is "Han shot first".
>If they had their way we'd still be stuck with Saturday morning cartoon morality and the Disney trilogy's masterful
>>le heckin brown rebels vs space nazis
You don't get from the OT to the Disney garbage without years of (((subversion))) in the meantime. Kreia was absolutely a stepping stone along the way, you're just too retarded to notice. Probably a zoomer who grew up watching the prequel trilogy.
>>
>>3999834
>Kreia was absolutely a stepping stone along the way
how?
>>
>>3999834
Lmao imagine unironically defending >Han shot first
as the peak of Star Wars philosophy while calling Kreia a stepping stone.
KOTOR 2 dropped in 2004, retard. That's the same era as the prequels you apparently hate. Kreia isn't
>subversion for subversion's sake
she's a brutal takedown of the Jedi/Sith binary your brain is too smooth to process.
The Force as a parasite? Jedi as self-righteous cancer? Sith as equally retarded?
Your
>fantasy wizards plus WW2
take is exactly the Saturday morning cartoon slop I was mocking. Disney didn't subvert anything, they just made it dumber with girlbosses and Mary Sues. Kreia brutally mogs your entire OT and you know it, that's why you're seething this hard.
>>
>>3999910
I'm really just here posting with Indians responding with ChatGPT-tier posts, huh? This is fucking grim. You're completely illiterate.
>>
>>3999916
>ChatGPT-tier
>illiterate
Couldn’t actually refute anything that was said so you cry about AI and poos like a seething third worlder, projection much?
Kreia would call you a fool blinded by his own ressentiment. Stay mad faggot, Kreia’s philosophy mogs them entire OT premise.
>>
>>3999930
>ressentiment
>mogs them entire OT premise
First of all, you're absolutely embarrassing yourself.
Secondly, I was clearly citing "Han shot first" as an example of how little nuance there is in Star Wars, in contrast to your post. For you to respond "Lmao imagine unironically defending 'Han shot first' as the peak of Star Wars philosophy" in a post pointing out the lack of philosophy or nuance in Star Wars indicates that you aren't even reading or thinking about what is said.
Third,
>Kreia isn't 'subversion for subversion's sake', she's a brutal takedown of the Jedi/Sith binary your brain is too smooth to process. The Force as a parasite? Jedi as self-righteous cancer? Sith as equally retarded? 'Your fantasy wizards plus WW2' take is exactly the Saturday morning cartoon slop I was mocking. Disney didn't subvert anything, they just made it dumber with girlbosses and Mary Sues.
is absolutely LLM-speak. Don't even front, dude.
>KOTOR 2 dropped in 2004
I know, I played it when it came out, because I was alive then, unlike you.
>>
>>3999937
>Han shot first as example of little nuance
>you aren't even reading
I read it fine. That's precisely the low bar I'm contrasting against.
Star Wars started as pulp space fantasy with WW2 aesthetics and a simple hero's journey, ok sure. But acting like that sets the permanent ceiling of no complex philosophy, the extent of nuance is Han shot first is exactly the limited take Kreia exists to dismantle. KOTOR2 proved the setting could handle genuine philosophical depth, and Kreia is the centerpiece of that.
She doesn't just add flavor: she tears into the foundations.
>The Force as a parasitic entity puppeteering the galaxy through endless conflict
>The Jedi as arrogant, self-righteous dogmatists whose balance and detachment repeatedly doom everyone
>The Sith as pathetic slaves to their passions
That's not stepping stone or random subversion, it's a direct philosophical challenge to the black and white morality and chosen one tropes the OT runs on. It exposes the limitations without erasing the fun adventure roots.

>You don't get from the OT to the Disney garbage without years of (((subversion))) in the meantime
Star Wars was always subversive. Explicitly anti white propaganda, and better for it.
>>
>>3999910
Disney Star Wars is unironically more right wing than old Star Wars but don't expect chuds to understand that.
>>
>>4000106
Just say "I accept your concession", kid. He gave up.
t. boomer who likes Kreia
>>
>>3999642
That was their intent but they failed at it and that's the actual problem with her

Her critiques mean nothing once you realize she does it for every choice and regardless of your alignment or previous choices made. She's the NPC equivalent of a stopped clock and all the discourse surrounding her is marveling at the one minute of the day she got it right
>>

>once you realize she does it for every choice and regardless of your alignment or previous choices made. She's the NPC equivalent of a stopped clock and all the discourse surrounding her is marveling at the one minute of the day she got it right
I would wager that a majority of the anons posting in this thread have not actually played KOTOR 2, and have at most watched youtube "video essays" about it.
>>
>>4000443
>Her critiques mean nothing once you realize she does it for every choice and regardless of your alignment or previous choices made
She doesn't. She approves of certain choices.
Like refusing the wookie's strength as a dark sider, I think most people haven't seen that cutscene. You directly refuse a permanent STR upgrade.
>>
>>4000443
>That was their intent but they failed at it and that's the actual problem with her
The problem is with the influence system not with Kreia
>>
>>4000481
She also likes it when you force persuade a guy on Dantooine into telling you what he knows and then forgetting he saw you, when you tell both Khoonda and the mercenaries that you're going to help, when you tell the sick guy on Nar Shaddaa to kill himself and some other things I forgot.
Kreia as le pleasable contrarian is a meme by people who only saw the beggar scene on youtube and didn't play the game.
>>
>>4000443
>Her critiques mean nothing once you realize she does it for every choice and regardless of your alignment or previous choices made.
Good job missing the point so thoroughly and then posting about it as if you were teaching a class. Well done.
That specifically IS the fucking point. They didn't fail. You're making choices because its +1 evil boy points or good boy points. She's telling you don't fucking do that.
>>
>>4000590
Stup up old woman, I will do that I need those mastery stat bonuses and I will also pretend to agree with you to make you feel good and get even more stat bonuses
>>
>>4000593
You are brown and will never be a jedi.
>>
>>4000594
>will never be a jedi.
not my problem
>>
>>4000596
kek you can always tell your kind from a thread away
