Star Wars Griefing Thread (SPOILERS) - Safety off

The second DLC for Outlaws is going to be about Hondo Onaka by the way.
Hondo is too obscure. I think we all know what the DLC will be like.

Kay Vess and Nix are in a cantina after doing that gaytarded 5 minute food mini-game when an armored figure walks in.

The Mandalorian walks to up the Kay Vess.
Mandalorian: Kay Vess, you have a Death Mark on your head from literally every criminal organization in the galaxy. I can bring you in cold or I can bring you in warm, your choice.

Kay Vess: Come on, Djin! You know I'm only trying to make my way to Coruscant, can't you cut me a break?

Mandalorian: Fine, I won't take you in but you have to help me help some farmers fight the Empire and you're the only person who's as good as me at fighting.

Kay Vess: Come on, Nix! Let's go fight the Empire!

Hondo has been shilled hard in the Disney EU, the only thing he hasn't been is live action. The last piece in the Canon timeline is an afterword to the Sequel Trilogy from a reference book written by him.
 
Marginally, probably. 2010s Fox was bad, but it was bad in a different way from Disney. They would have probably just sloppily adapted the EU with fucked up misinterpretations rather than do what Disney did. On the other hand, Amazon would have 100% somehow fucked Star Wars up even worse.
At the very least they would have honor and respected George’s ideas. Fox were loyal to George at least since they were willing to distribute whatever George did as long as they get some kind of distribution fee.

It’s worth noting that when Fox gave George the sequel and merchandising rights to Star Wars, they retained the right of first negotiation and refusal to participate in any potential sequel. So any film George made, he had to go to Fox first and ask if they would like to release the film. They obviously said yes to the rest of the OT and PT.

For some reason, he didn’t ask Fox to distribute TPM until after he finished filming the film.
 
If my memory is not failing me, Maul was brought back in some EU source (I think a darkhorse comic) pre clonewars TV show. Filoni didnt even come up with that, but merely aped it.
Twice.
Once in Star Wars Tales story "Resurrection" where a dark side cult brings Maul back as some sort of Force wraith and pitched him against Vader, with the later being victorious and killing Maul.
And the second time in non-canonical Visionaries story Old Wounds, where he has his metal legs and is obsessed with Obi-Wan. He goes after baby Luke to lure Obi-Wan out of hiding and is shot dead by Owen Lars.

And like Bo-Katan, that's another character who's treated as less awful than they should be. First appearance, kidnaps two Jedi and they just let him go to be a criminal again and the next time he shows up, he's terrorizing and raiding a small, undefended farming village with tanks, yet they keep trying to make him this wacky, friendly dude. He shows up in Rebels and he sells the Twi'lek chick into slavery and yet the kid Jedi loves him and looks up to him, its bizarre.

He's a poor man's Vilmarh Grahrk is what he is.

This is the kind of sleemo I can actually like.

Virgin Weequay vs Chad Devaronian. I forgot how many cool characters there were spread out across the EU.

Least that was something that Started more with Rebels and even then he is still kinda scummy for most of his apperences
Speaking of Maul am I the only one that thought the decision to have him be obsessed with Obi-Wan to be fucking weird? If anything I would have expected him to want revenge on Palpatine for taking everything away from him, including his own damn brother who he literally kills right in front of him for God's sake. But nope, it's Obi-Wan's fault... somehow. Even after that he goes right back to chasing Obi-Wan because... reasons.

And any time I bring this up I always get the same responses of
"That's the point! The point is that it doesn't make sense!"
So the point is he's a retard?
I kinda think they should have moved Maul into more of an anti-hero phase and have his arc in TCW be him trying to get Obi-Wan to join him.

Weird thing is even in the Disney Canon, Maul can still get resurrected again. All you really need to do is use the idea that there is still an imprint of Maul in the Naboo hanger (as seen in Shattered Empire) and use that as a conduit (I don't know if that is the best term) to summon his spirit into a clone body. Have it be operated by Mandos still loyal to Maul after all this time and boom Maul returns again. And a slightly less stupid way then before

My choice of criminal would be Gault Rennow from SWTOR's bounty hunter class story.

Aside from the fact that he's voiced by the ever-excellent Darran Norris, (same guy who voiced G0-T0) his honesty is at least refreshing. He's an honest crook if I ever saw one. Hey, at least he's honest about the fact that he'd sell your hide for a quarter if he could.
 
Not the most insightful observation on my part, really pointing out the obvious, but now more than ever it looks like Disney genuinely thought slapping Star Wars on anything would make it automatically successful and went with quantity over quality products (looks like it, because they have).

Disney made the mistake of believing Star Wars was a brand that could never weaken, and once that might have been true but actual Star Wars media that wasn’t books was fairly uncommon and thus would attract interest even if the last one was middling to bad now it’s one middling to bad show or game or whatever after another, they've oversaturated the market with Star Wars entries.
 
I think it's pretty impressive that so many cool ideas for Star Wars games over the years were ditched in favor of stuff like Outlaws.

Among games we never got, there was Battlefront 3 AND 4, that Boba Fett game, and any followups to Republic Commando.

Imperial Commando is such a badass idea, and it's a shame we never got it. Today there's no way the rat or any of the faggy game studios it hires will ever allow us to fight on the side of the Empire.
 
It's not that they can't portray large space battles, it's that they have no idea how to do so. It's easier to copy and paste ships than it is to have an idea as to what purpose they are supposed to serve.
There's also them believing the audience is too stupid to figure out who's on who's side if all of the ships of one side aren't copy pasted. Or god forbid both sides using the same type of ships* even with differentiating paint schemes and iconography showing who's on who's side.

Well, you play as the Imperials in EA Battlefront 2, but I believe you turn coat halfway through the game because of course you do.
