nightcraw1er.488: Although, they really should stop advertising the weak spots on it, I mean really, learn by mistake and all that.
I think the takeaway should rather be to STOP MAKING F_CKING DEATH STARS. Seriously. How can anyone affiliated with the Empire/First Order think it's still a good idea? "Well, maybe the next horrendously expensive planet-size superweapon WON'T get blown up."

Whether or not they otherwise turn out to be enjoyable, I think if there are any new Death Star-like weapons in future Star Wars movies, I'm out.

EDIT for clarity.

Well, there's bound to be Starkiller Base II/Deathstar IV in Episode IX, right? Along with Kylo's redemption and a race of primitive, cudly, marketable aliens helping out the Resistance.

Or they could use the Overcompensator Star Destroyer.

"We are the e-e-e-ewoks, where the spirits of the forest roam". Yay!

Look, when you rule the galaxy then you can build giant magic pony rides or whatever, until that time death stars are in :o) I mean what else were you going to do when you own the entire galaxy? Maybe the next one should be a black hole generator...

Basically you want the FIrst Order to hire this guy? You know... I'm ok with that. He was a better villain than anyone they've got.

I was thinking Scorpious with some wormhole technology.

P1na: If there's no lightsaber in starwars, was there a point on it being Star Wars to begin with?

F4LL0UT: Well, considering that TIE Fighter is the best and ultimate Star Wars game (that's not up to discussion) even though it doesn't have lightsabres...
I could discuss it, but the combo of it not being up to discussion and me directly not liking flying sims makes it quite difficult.

HunchBluntley: That's apparently what Georgie-boy Lucas thought, and look how awesome the prequels turned out....

Battered freighters dodging asteroids while being pursued by enemy ships; running blaster battles through spaceship corridors; mysterious bounty hunters; large-scale planetary invasions and space battles; smugglers conducting negotiations in seedy environs: all of these things are every bit as quintessentially 'Star Wars' as lightsaber fights and force powers and bad guys in masks and capes.
Never liked any of the movies anyway. To me, Star Wars equals Jedi Knight and KOTOR; the rest is just filler.

I was enjoying the more defensive Aikedo single blue lightsaber style last game of KotOR. I've also been a double red bladed dark jedi girl with implants. I was thinking it would be cool to continue the last character in KotOR 2 with a single red lightsaber, he was getting a little bit swayed by the dark side.

I've done both lightsabers and blasters in Jedi Outcast, I couldn't resist shooting the hell out of everything with heavy blasters last game. It really shines in the jedi department though.

Master Jedi Luke green lightsaber is sounding really cool too. Hmm, yes I think green.

I wonder if you could (Han) solo KotOR 2 like a badass lone wolf jedi.

Jedi Outcast and Jedi Academy have the best lightsaber combat in any Star Wars game list. Force Unleashed lightsaber combat is bullshit compared to it. I used to play multiplayer lightsaber only TDMs and duels in Academy and had lots of fun. Singleplayer lightsaber fights against other lightsabering enemies are tonnes of fun as well.
by far I prefer the games where I can have a lightsabre and be a jedi.

that said, the first time I played jedi knight 2 I couldn't believe how hard everyone was on the first three levels before you get the sabre because I thought they were fantastic at recreating the feel of the world and of being Han Solo and blasting your way through the empire and getting out by the skin of your teeth.

Best MP games ever!
I always enjoy bringing a knife to a gunfight, so I am in the Jedi camp.
Pssh. Vibroblades are the way to go. Stompy mechs are way cooler than laser balls in space, anyway. =P

Heh, the Star Wars universe (or, at least, the now-disavowed Expanded Universe) had those, too. :)

Let's face it, Force Unleashed was bullshit in pretty much every way. The pathetic "bring down the Star Destroyer" mini game was a stuff of nightmares.
