i also think the inclusion of d-rok moves it up by 10 points on the 10 point score
hollow lantern
I've bitched about this a lot historically so I'll keep it brief but it lacks a lot of QoL that even 90s boom shoots have(visual signposting and an Automap) and I don't find the weapons to be wildly engaging
I also don't like the free boss cheese in every boss room but ig I don't have to use those

yeah i can get that
however it does have D-Rok
but on a real note ive noted a lot of peoples gripes with it but iunno

They are both ideas but also have a "physical" form in the Warp however as a manifestation of what they are, they just dont ever take a step into realspace

Hi lore chat, just trying to build and formalize an idea I know is possible.
In the Table Top version of Rgoue Trader, I noticed it is actually (and paradoxically) possible to have a Missionary be from a Frontier World of all places (and Frontier Worlds are specifically noted to (A) be somewhat less hostile to interacting with Xenos, and (B) not get along well with Ecclesiarch)
But since a Missionary from said planet is possible, and I can assume said Missionary was just picked up and taught by a different Missionary (instead of full induction into Missionaria Galaxia)
My lore question is more...how would such a person draw a balance between their own Frontier World experience, and the very xenophobic Imperial Creed?
storm jungle
Yeah we already know the Imperial church is like full of holes so a character like this would be pretty believable, being a missionary (aka someone that also travels a lot) would probably also make him grow lax with such notions. You can also have him be a bit of a Sebastian Thor fanboy to explaining his more "nicer" views regarding the creed as well

Andor is great
But it's like
Such a stark contrast between those and the sequel trilogy
Why does Star Wars have that curse
Of having the best side content only for the main stuff to just be like
Genuinely mid at best aside from the original trilogy
It is genuinely an accomplishment that the sequel trilogy went so bad that SW fans gaslit themselves into thinking the prequels were good
It was also depressing in the period after Rise of Skywalker to see like
SW fans stop complaining for once
Cause it means that they legitimately just gave up
Like they couldn't even muster any hatred anymore.

Anyone remember THE GREAT WARU

And also some **really bad stuff**
The difference between pre and post Disney buyout was that
arctic talon
Disney made the shitty Palpatine coming back thing from legends a thing in canon
When they could have avoided it
opaque coyote
The difference between pre and post Disney buyout was that
The sequel trilogy in particular just feels like
A repeat
jade holly
The Force Awakens was great
Idc what anyone says
But holy crap the follow ups sucked
arctic talon
TFA was good
opaque coyote
Like the prequels were also bad
opaque coyote
Like the prequels were also bad
But at least they tried a lot of new stuff
jade holly
The prequels helped build how we know Star Wars as a universe
opaque coyote
The Force Awakens was great
My hot take is that I actually like the Last Jedi
It was flawed
Definitely 100%
I will not dispute that
But it was genuinely interesting

Also this yeah
rigid dune
I think rogue one would be better if everyone "survived" untill the end and then got caught by vader on the ship for the fakeout rather then just getting picked off one by one as soon as they did thier thing during final mission
arctic talon
3-PO canonically racist????
opaque coyote
The choreography is fucking ASS
I think it was actually okay.
Also I really liked the decision for Rey and Kylo Ren teaming up
arctic talon
jade holly
I think it was actually okay.
Also I really liked the decision for Rey and Kylo...
If you slow down the fight and watch all the scenes, you’ll notice the fighting is bad
dapper gyro
I think it was actually okay.
Also I really liked the decision for Rey and Kylo...
But the random kiss though...
opaque coyote
If you slow down the fight and watch all the scenes, you’ll notice the fighting ...
True. Which is why I said it was merely
Okay.
arctic talon
Also the implication that that specific first order storm trooper knows almost all the languages in the galaxy
dapper gyro
Like... what...
arctic talon
For that joke
opaque coyote
But the random kiss though...
Yeah that was definitely just ship bait ngl
arctic talon
Is very funny
opaque coyote
Again, I actually liked the idea of the villain and the hero temporarily teaming up ngl
arctic talon
Tbh the prequels had insanely good choreography
rigid dune
Should have ended with double heel turn. Kyole become jedi, ray become sith
dapper gyro
Temporary alliance is nice.
opaque coyote
Tbh the prequels had insanely good choreography
Oh they were fucking spectacular
jade holly
Tbh the prequels had insanely good choreography
The speed at which the prequel actors fight too is insane
dapper gyro
But in that movie, it is just sucked.
arctic talon
I think Rey and Kylo having shit technique is actually good
Since
The technique is all lost
opaque coyote
The speed at which the prequel actors fight too is insane
Christen Hayden got a bad rap man. He did fucking great as Anakin
jade holly
Like Hayden in Ashoka looks like he needs to slow down for Rosario Dawson
arctic talon
lol
opaque coyote
Christen Hayden got a bad rap man. He did fucking great as Anakin
He just got a bad script
jade holly
Christen Hayden got a bad rap man. He did fucking great as Anakin
His facial and body acting was always amazing

And no SW fan ever shit talks the Obi Wan vs Anakin fight

Ashoka had really slow light saber fights mostly

arctic talon
Well
opaque coyote
The circumstances around it. Maybe
arctic talon
People do lol
dapper gyro
Fake fans

I guess lol

Animated stuff always has the best looking choreography
Bcs they can go hog wild lol
With how they animate shit
languid meadow
Even with the motion tracked fights it's good
opaque coyote
His facial and body acting was always amazing
I think the worst decision that the sequels have ever made.
Was the fact that the New Order or whatever the fuck was basically a carbon copy of the Empire
There was like
Barely any difference
I don't even remember the actual name
opaque coyote
I don't even remember the actual name
Like why use Stormtroopers again
Make something new
arctic talon
Ashoka does thrawn great that's all I wanted tbh
This was cool
The first order using stormtroopers again is fine
Better then the LucasArts stuff where over a hundred years later they still had fucking stormtroopers
languid meadow
Glad they got the writer for him to actually write the episodes
languid meadow
Look at old repub troopers lol
arctic talon
Oh also the Fel empire stuff is weird, “hey kids what if facism, but not evil”
languid meadow
Star wars has always been weird like that
opaque coyote
Animated stuff always has the best looking choreography
This is gonna be kinda unrelated but fuck it.
Yeah a problem with Invincible is that a lot of the animation is based more on live action. Especially some of the fight scenes. The director admits it himself.
Which is why a lot of the more raw moments are times where the team gets creative with the fight.
arctic talon
I do think they should have made TFO insurgents though lol
dapper gyro
Captain Plasma is also a waste in the movies.
opaque coyote
Or Thragg's fucking suck up punch
languid meadow
She's such a cool character
opaque coyote
I do think they should have made TFO insurgents though lol
It would've been interesting if they were basically a neo Nazi terrorist organization
Instead of the 5th Reich
languid meadow
They wrote her a backstory before the 2nd movie and just killed her there
Wompwomp
opaque coyote
She’s got boba fett syndrome
There was a deleted scene where she shot stormtroopers out of sheer paranoia
And I
Fucking loved it
Characterized her perfectly
...
So of course they deleted it
rigid dune
She’s got boba fett syndrome
I guess her figureine did not sell well enough after her introduction so they got rid of her
arctic talon
lol
dapper gyro
It was selling well though.
arctic talon
Disney in general does not want to touch that era after TROS
opaque coyote
I guess her figureine did not sell well enough after her introduction so they go...
Like at least Boba Fett fought.
Captain Plasma literally just...
Surrendered
Complete aura loss
dapper gyro
They just don't know what to do with her in the movies.
rigid dune

Captain Plasma literally just...

I don't remember, did she die or just got thrown in trash compactor?
arctic talon
There’s no fucking way they do it right
near wasp
They should
languid meadow
I don't remember, did she die or just got thrown in trash compactor?
That was TFA she dies in the 2nd movie
opaque coyote
I don't remember, did she die or just got thrown in trash compactor?
Both.
She got thrown in the trash compactor in Force Awakens and died in Last Jedi
opaque coyote
That was TFA she dies in the 2nd movie
This deleted scene should've been in the actual movie
Just watch it
Genuinely makes her character somewhat more interesting
rigid dune
Both.
She got thrown in the trash compactor in Force Awakens and died in Last J...
But what if she survives so they can make a spin off seies 4years down the rode when they are all out of other idéas which will get torn to shreds by fans and critics? Where it's a redemption story and it will all end in a "Ohh WOW" moment where she discard her silver armor and replace it with a gold one?
rocky gale
and then the Phasma comic where it's literally just about her hunting down everyone who knows about her turning off the shields in Starkiller base
jade holly
opaque coyote
https://youtu.be/UzeIb-TZo_I?si=HGhZKqmG2ryUB6Ic
I also love how she nervously looks around with her eye exposed
languid meadow
So fun fact you mentioned the golden armor
opaque coyote
Paranoia quickly setting into her mind
jade holly
I think the silver looks cooler
opaque coyote
Paranoia quickly setting into her mind
It genuinely makes her more than just like
arctic talon
It does
jade holly
Gold would just be too much
opaque coyote
A boba Fett ripoff
arctic talon
It also fits with the color pallet more
The empire is all cold colors
Aside from the emperors guards
arctic talon
The first order is also all cold colors
opaque coyote
But one that is competent
languid meadow
Commander Pyre
jade holly
Yeah
opaque coyote
languid meadow
Resistance had a bunch of these let me get the Baron
rigid dune
Though biggest miss was the usage of Finn imo.
opaque coyote
But what if she survives so they can make a spin off seies 4years down the rode ...

Honestly
Unironically?
Wouldn't be a bad idea to have a Phasma spinoff.
Not a redemption story though that sounds like ass-
languid meadow
Elrik Vonreg "The Baron"

But it's pretty clear that she died

Commander Pyre
My god they’re gold

So it's probably impossible unless if it's before her death
opaque coyote

The Emperor circa 31st millennium
Honestly the funniest thing is that gold would probably not be considered a rare resource
Cause like
Again, galaxy wide empire
Gold only has some use in electronics
And chemical stuff
So it's legitimately just him liking gold

Shiny armour is really not tactical.
opaque coyote
When you can like
Crush a titan using your mind
I think at some point, shiny armor doesn't matter
Honestly if I was a god-like being
I would totally look like a god-like being
Like
arctic talon
Tbf
Star Wars armor isn’t tactical except for some of the like, stuff in Rogue one and Andor lol
And other non movie and show material
opaque coyote
Why wouldn't I have armor shinier than anything humanity has seen in 10k years?
dapper gyro
Dark troopers when they were first introduced were pretty tactical.
arctic talon
Their gear is not tactical it’s literally glossy black
dapper gyro
Them and the Clone Commando.
arctic talon
That shit would reflect light like a motherfucker
opaque coyote
Star Wars armor isn’t tactical except for some of the like, stuff in Rogue one a...
I mean yeah.
Legitimately a problem the Stormtrooper actors had while shooting the films was that they couldn't see shit out of their helmet
arctic talon
Clone commandos are also literally bright white with glowing visors with no easy access pouches. They’re not tactical. They’re cool
lol
opaque coyote
Which contributed to the "stormtroopers can't aim' joke
dapper gyro
Gloss black is kind of funny when thinking of camouflage.
opaque coyote
Gloss black is kind of funny when thinking of camouflage.
Yeah absolute black isn't actually good for cameoflauge
Like Ninjas were actually grey
Because black would cause moonlight to reflect
But also black is cooler which is why whenever ninjas appear in contemporary media
Black
dapper gyro
Because flat black makes it feels unnatural by absorbing too much light, hence some camo with lighter black, black with something literal white spot on it, or slightly gloss black.
arctic talon
Chud on Chud
dapper gyro
Not shiny black.
arctic talon
okay they actually had way more pouches then I remember wtf lol
Shiny black is still terrible camo material tho
great for aura farming
dapper gyro
okay they actually had way more pouches then I remember wtf lol
Hmm, way more gloss than I remember...
Clone Commando armour is still peak.
Then the Old Republic trooper.
languid meadow
A lot of the fully black armours in star wars are mainly meant for like
"Stealth"
Like stealth jets in real life
dapper gyro
That one is for intimidation.
languid meadow
Fucking up scanners and radar
arctic talon
The old republic trooper is good for faceless goons
tbh
same with the sith empire armor
languid meadow
That one is for intimidation.
Nah the DT armor was pretty advanced
Not as advanced as like clone republic stuff but yeah

Ninjas in general are actually

Really interesting

Ninjas wore dark blues no?

Ninjas wore dark blues no?
dark blues/light grey iirc
also probably like
not really real
dapper gyro
Ninja wear normal people clothes...
dapper gyro
I don't reply to any of these ninja thing to see how deep you guys think of that myth...
And I am disappointed.
near wasp
Ninjas were stealth people, not really stealthy to be dressed a specific way
dapper gyro
If you want, Bruce Willis' the Jackal is probably what a ninja would be.
opaque coyote
not really real
On some level they were
Shinobi warfare was definitely a thing.
But whether they were just samurai or if Ninjas actually existed as a thing
Well...
That's a whole other topic
It's not like they wanted us to know anyways
Damn Ninjas
Even hiding from us in terms of history
dapper gyro
*shielded*
They are shielded in Legend.
arctic talon
They're also randomly not shielded in legend sometimes
the shields are only brought up in Republic commando and the novels related to it
dapper gyro
The shield is supposedly to let them take 1 hit at most, reducing the damage to the armour is the main thing.

Again, the only mass produced with metal armour.
Insteal of literal plastic like most other, even ARC troopers.
arctic talon
tbh
its not even like metal armor is really helpful in star wars
look at poor deathwatch in the stuff they show up in lol
or any mandalorian goons rather lol
dapper gyro
Still somewhat more tanky.
arctic talon
yeah
dapper gyro
Mandalorians still out fight clone 1:1.
arctic talon
yes but armor in star wars is always a case of
"this shit barely works"
body armor is rarely depicted as being good enough to stop a shot from killing
dapper gyro
Deathwatch also sold their original armours then making new one with cheaper material.

their new armor was still literal metal is my point lol and decently well made

I'm not talking about space wizards rn

The thing is though, Super battledroid for example has plating that can survive multiple hits.
arctic talon
I'm talking about blasters
opaque coyote
Yeah ik but like
It makes sense why they're bad against light sabers
dapper gyro
Yes they are android, but most droids can't do the same.
arctic talon
Yeah the B2 is purpose built
arctic talon
for that though
opaque coyote
needing to protect fleshy bits
dapper gyro
Most other type of droid dies quite easily vs blasters.
opaque coyote
Most other type of droid dies quite easily vs blasters.
They usually target weak points
And even then it takes quite a lot
like usually every time a B2 droid dies it takes like 4-5 shots to put one down
For B1's they're literally made to be cannon fodder which are as cheaply built as possible
So it makes sense that they die with like 1-2 blaster shots
dapper gyro
When there are multiple ones, and only a few of them have protection against normal weapons, we should put that into consideration of the protection.
Especially that without that plating, the super battledroid dies quite easily.
opaque coyote
Especially that without that plating, the super battledroid dies quite easily.
Good luck finding one without that plating tho
opaque coyote
good luck going through that plating
opaque coyote
Most other type of droid dies quite easily vs blasters.
also usually B2's and above are depicted kinda tanky tbh
Only B1's really die easily to blasters
Which again
Cheap ass clankers built to overwhelm by sheer numbers
Even then it's better than a human
who can't survive one
dapper gyro
Droid Deka has energy shield, but they die super quick without it.
