Happy star war day

what’s your favorite SW game?

tie fighter
galactic battlegrounds
rogue squadron
republic commando

I'm actually about to start Rogue Squadron 2, if the thread sticks around for another hour or two I'll let you know my thoughts

im STILL mad about what they did to bf2 2017

Jedi Academy

SWTOR

KOTOR 1 since it's a finished game. 2 has better atmosphere but is in second place cause not finished LOL!!! Republic Commando is kino.

star wars outlaws

outcast had better 1v1 servers desu

I like a lot of them, but probably KOTOR2

Academy for the fun hangout servers where admins would be cool with shenanigans and would load funky mods or maps for your enjoyment.
Outcast for the SP and 1v1

galactic battlegrounds

These are just the old PS2 games version bundle together aren't they?

Dark Forces 2 is the single best piece of EU ever made, of any medium. "Therefore I Am" by Kevin J. Anderson is second place.

I'm not sure there are any good Star Wars games, but I have nostalgic memories of the guy who was about to slash all of his prices and the sheer insanity and instability of that level in general.

I used to spend a lot of time poking Jan Ors' butt in the first level, had to use cheats to give myself a lightsaber so I can see it happen in 3rd person. lol

I hate corporate holidays. If they had a soul they'd be celebrating important dates from SW not days with funny names

galactic battlegrounds

I hate how often that game is forgotten these days since RTS are dead and zoomer dont care and much less are able to play them

what’s your favorite SW game?

The one you posted. It was perfect in every way possible. I love Jedi Outcast.

Yes and no.
They took the levels and characters from the first two games, added a few more, and tied it all with a new hub world.
It's less of a game collection and more of a combination of the old games into a new one.

As already well explained, Yes/No. Years back they took the re-release as an opportunity to improve or change things here and there, since patching wasn't possible for obvious reasons. It's a "definitive edition" kinda deal if anything.

to be fair it's literally just aoe2 with a bunch of cosmetic skins (i still played it a ton as a kid)

episode 3 on the ds, the multiplayer ship fighting was so kino and unlocking skills to murder children makes my dick so hard

Of course it's just a Full Conversion mod, but holy shit is it a fantastic one! Plus the fact that it's just (updated) AoE2 should make people talk about it more so, considering the legacy of both brands at play here. Still fucks me up that GB added endless farming, while base AoE2 didn't had that.

it was a bit more than just a skin

Probably some mix of KOTOR 1/2, Jedi Academy, Empire at War, and Republic Commando.
I use to fuck hard with battlegrounds, I wish it got a sequel of some kind in a similar style to celebrate Episode 3 and complete the entire set but obviously by the time Revenge of the Sith came out Age of Empire sprites were out and 3D was in.

well they did put a lot of effort into it with the new tilesets and unit skins etc. Plus it was super cool to be able to play as gungans

I wish it got a sequel of some kind in a similar style

Was always hoping for something like it, or maybe even a Force Commander sequel, but I guess Empire at War is that so whatever.
There is plenty of changes here and there, including QOL stuff, see automatic reseeding of farms and likely other stuff. The unit and mechanic changes from the difference factions are obviously another big matter. It's anything but a simple reskin for sure, hence why I called it "Full Conversion Mod" instead.

i definitely wasn't a hardcore RTS player back then so to me it felt the exact same, but I will take your word for it that there were material changes between the two.

Empire at War was a good alternative at least, and its a gift that keeps on giving in terms of mods support so I guess in the end we did win more than we lost on that front.

empire at war

the space battles were fun and cinematic, but god damn the ground battles were retarded.

The balance is completely different in a good way. The basics are still very similar but how it actually plays is significantly different.

Dark Forces II and KotOR II

The only mod that managed to fix ground combat was Awakening of the Rebellion. I fucking love my little doomstack of Rebel Special Forces that can sneak past any planetary fleet and fight a brutal battle with like 30 or 40 individual models in total (basically like 12 full units), really made me feel like a badass.

I'm actually about to start Rogue Squadron 2, if the thread sticks around for another hour or two I'll let you know my thoughts

I remember buying it on launch back in 01. The graphics were staggering back then. Factor 5 were so fucking good.

Wasn't a hardcore RTS fag back then, nor am I today, but I'd still very much argue that the game is different enough to matter in places. At the very least it's a huge standalone expansion pack, but not just a "reskin" or the original, that's just silly.
The lifetime people got out of EaW always blows my mind, especially now days that Workshop support took things over. God I miss fileplanet and the like, those were the fucking days of modding, the high point of creativity and what have you.
Ground Battles were def the weak link of that game, Space Battles being forever the highlight for everyone. A fucking shame about the single core limitations, or really general optimization problem. No matter what modern monster CPU you throw at it, sooner or later the game will buckle, especially in modded space battles.

played original battlefront as a kid

literally 8 years old

didnt have a gaymin pc in 2017/18

never played the new battlefronts

I really want to now that I have my life in order but the game seems dead and full of hackers, feelsbadman

I remember vividly X-Play sucking off Rogue squadron 2 for being such a graphical showpiece. "YOU COULD SEE THE AT-AT'S FEET IN THE WATER"

I still have my CDs

Time flies when you see your favorite franchise get assfucked in new and exciting ways.

jedi outcast is genuinely a bad game. on lower modes its bad quake 3 and then after 2 levels it becomes a power simulator of bodying stormtroopers with your invincible character broken up by the odd cool swordfight or bullshit gimmick segment where you autodie from an npc with bad AI, and then if you play on the max difficulty its a total clownshow where you fight 20 men with hitscan accuracy who actively avoid your mouse cursor who spawn from nowhere when you open doors that can 2shot you as you slowly cheese the encounters until you get end game force powers and then you can once again completely disregard them
academy's more nonlinear design and focus more on cool swordfights and gimmicks that don't instantly kill you but just change up the gameplay and reward different character builds is way more interesting and it also gives you the sense power so your guns can actually fucking aim straight.

don't bother replying if you haven't played on jedi master mode, ty

First impressions are just that, holy fuck this is from the same year as Deus Ex? And it's on the fucking GameCube?
Unfortunately it absolutely chugs on Dolphin and after reading the X Wing series this past month (just finished the third book, it's kino) I was expecting more X-Wing Alliance than Ace Combat

SW:Rebellion
Love 4x

What's the best widescreen mod for Jedi Outcast anyways?

widescreen mod

what the fuck are you talking about? all you have to do is change 2 lines in the config file

Dark Forces 2
JKO and JKA
EAW

I've never seen the vanilla Galactic Battlegrounds CDs. The Galactic Battlegrounds Saga disc art is completely different.
I don't have a phone or camera to take a picture, but Disc 1 has a Stormtrooper on the left aiming at the camera with an AT-AT on the right and a Geonosis-like orange background, and Disc 2 has an AT-TE on the left and a clone trooper on the right with a blue background.

Republic Commando could really use a remake/remaster, because it's a very rough diamond, but not the average corpo remake that just makes the original worse. An actual one.

i dont want a remake

i want a remake

okay? might wanna use the usual retarded zoomer speak to make your point clear, see "sovl" aka SOUL and what have you

"YOU COULD SEE THE AT-AT'S FEET IN THE WATER"

The Kothlis level was mind blowing at the time.

Unfortunately it absolutely chugs on Dolphin

Rogue Leader didn't even boot up on Dolphin until the 2010s and Rebel Strike didn't until the mid-2010s. They're that filled with bizarre Factor 5 wizardry.

after reading the X Wing series this past month (just finished the third book, it's kino)

It gets better and better. The best one is Starfighters of Adumar.

To be fair it WAS a graphical powerful, one that could've easily be the Crysis of it's time, and all that on a fucking gamecube of all things.

it absolutely chugs on Dolphin

It runs a fuck ton better now days, if not even well. The hardcore perf problem days are long over last time I checked.

I spent yesterday watching the original trilogy and I'm on the prequels now, but for vidya?
LEGO

chiw1p.jpg - 1024x576, 162.37K

Is this game worth it? or did they change too much from the original lego games?

The hardcore perf problem days are long over last time I checked.

This. Not sure what anon's issue is. Dolphin can run games like F-Zero GX and Rogue Squadron 3 well now.

Revenge of the Sith (PS2)

ROTS.jpg - 354x500, 35.88K

jesus christ no. had big hope for that thing when it came out because "its the lego guys, SURELY it will be good, even tho its disney star wars".
was hugely disappointed with how buggy and broken it was here and there, not to mention how shit the content was.
the charm of 360 and ps2 era lego games are long gun, its all fully voice acted shit now days.
man fzero used to be a problem for such a long time, now days it runs like fucking butter. rogue can still casue some issues depending on how poorfag old your PC is but NOTHING compared to 10 years ago, it's lightyears better these days.

full of deleted scenes and content based around those scenes

that game was a fucking trip

I don't like any of them because I only really like the aliens from Star Wars. I started playing Fortnite specifically because they're adding Jar Jar. I may have a problem.

its all fully voice acted shit now days.

what a shame

The only star wars game that really makes you appreciate how difficult it can be to resist the dark side.

Yeah they started upping the production value through voice acting in the 360/early ps4 era, can't remember for sure anymore. Either the Lord of the Ring or Force Awakened game started that shit, instantly robbing the games of a lot of the charm. Yes, sure the production value improved a shit ton, but for what cost?

Explain how

Not him, but killing/letting Rosh live might be the absolute best DS/LS choice in all of Star Wars franchise in its sheer simplicity and narrative strength, and also one of the best tests of your character in general

For singleplayer, DF2:JK.
For multiplayer, Outcast.
Special mentions to X/T/XvT.

Fun fact: they just did a massive update on the hacking issues going on, even going so far as to partner up with modders to implement it, which you know, for EA, that's pretty much unheard of.

Star Wars Galaxies
Pre jedi faggotry

wait what, they did?

"even" partnered up with modder

you could also argue that they let them do the job, but let's give them some props for once to stay fair.

missionbros...
For me its the Battlefront 2004
The only good one

mission vao.jpg - 575x800, 170.97K

My whigga, it's my favourite mmo.

too bad they fucked up her design and you have to give her blasters if you want to make her useful

Kotor 1 and the Rogue Squadron games...
Also the SNES ones were fun.

Can you hear me? Rogue Squadron, this is Crix Madine. The attack came before I could reach Rieekan and I'm pinned down in the Tech Center. Can you get me out?

Additionally, Kyber is set to continue to work on their dedicated community servers for Battlefront 2, implementing their own policy for cheating and hacking.

Woooooooooow, I'm legit shocked and amazed by that decision. Cool stuff, would've never heard about this without you either, so thank you!

Was EA the worst thing to happen to Star wars vidya?

No, Disney was, period. EA didn't kill Star Wars, Disney did, front to back. EA hasn't had exclusive control over SW for years now, yet all we got was a really bad Ubisoft one, not counting potential phone garbage no one gives a fuck about.
Guess I should download it once more, see if I can actually find lobbies now, including for the mindless coop romp.

No, that's Disney

I like Masters of Teras Kasi
My man Hoar and fucking up my little brother with Darth Vader never got old

1995-2005 was the golden age of vidya and the star wars franchise still had all of that good will.

I'm the last to defend EA but if all you can see is "I HATE THIS GAME COMPANY THEY KILLED MY MOVIE FRANCHISE" then you're not only blind but disgustingly retarded and immature. Disney bought Star Wars from an apathetic Lucas, then killed every piece of EU content, continued by making shite movies and gave the highest bidder exclusive access to the brand on the side, which they later cancelled for bad press reasons. Since then nothing fucking happened one way or another, yet you keep on screaming EA this EA that because you want a scapegoat refusing to blame Disney for some cultish reason.

I put hundreds of hours into bf2 during covid. It was mindless fun but I don't regret it at all. Shame EA pulled the plug to have Dice work on some Battlefield game no one gave a shit about as they were finally turning the game around.

my-image(27).png - 950x465, 367.45K

I still remember my grandpa getting mad about me killing the civilians

dice didn't turn around jack and shit from what I remember, that was one of the 20 billion 2ndary devs. if I recall dice was only fully responsible for the first game, which is prolly why the 2nd game runs so stupidly well ironically enough.

you’re too bitter over nothing of importance

For me it's Jedi Power Battle, but holy fuck fuck coruscant and it's stupid jump-gimmick. Trying to get that shit coordinated while playing with my brother was always a surefire way to lose all credits.

I had this game but someone stole it was fun and had one of my favorite Thermal Detonators

The worst thing to happen to Star Wars vidya was LucasFilm circa 2008.
Cancelling ALL the shit people wanted to see, and for what? Funds going into a shitty cartoon and, what, The Force Unleashed?

They announced a book that takes place after TRoS and gives us an idea of what post-sequel stuff will be about

Star Wars The Last Order: Following the end of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, the Resistance rescues a ship full of young passengers who had been kidnapped by the First Order. As Finn and Jannah set out to find the First Order officer responsible before he can endanger any more children, the two former stormtroopers must wrestle with their own complicated pasts as soldiers of the oppressive regime.

So somehow the First Order never died and the Resistance are still underdogs. Absolutely nothing changed

file.jpg - 347x145, 11.72K

Neither Lucas nor Filoni give a flying fuck about the LucasArts Games department on their direct or licensed (outsourced) projects.
And why would Force Unleashed, an internally produced game, be responsible for the cancellation of projects we have either no idea or barely any idea about, and which to begin with? BF3 is the only big thing I ever see people mention, and that game had 2-3 versions going on as time went by from the looks of it, the remnants now being in a PSP game which adapted bits of the story and art assets.

ALL the shit

Which SHIT? Gonna blame EA for those things too, 1313 too?

Gonna boot it up now for old times sake as well. Always loved flying the A-Wing in them.

it was a bit more than just a skin

It was better. People who swear by AoE2 but have never played GB don't know that they're missing the superior game.

Want to replay Jedi Outcast (NOT Academy, I've played that to death)

It's not installed on my PC

Fuck it, I'll play either Rogue Leader, Rebel Strike, or the Gamecube Clone Wars game

Can't find Rogue Leader or Rebel Strike

Find two copies of Clone Wars (????)

Plug one into my Gamecube, the lid doesn't shut because the eject button is stuck

Don't feel like opening up my Gamecube to unstick the button so just put something heavy on the lid to keep it closed

Boot up my shitty capture card's software, EZGrabber

It doesn't register my card

"IIRC I have to reinstall the drivers and restart my PC to make this work"

Do so

My antivirus quarantines EZGrabber as malware (it's not, I've used it before)

Now wrestling with my antivirus to make it not take away shit I want to use

Fuck you, I just wanted to play a Star Wars game

Which SHIT

KotOR 3?
BF3?
JKJA2?
Imperial Commando?

Somehow I've touched a nerve.

I remember playing RS2 while being a casual enjoyer of the movies, and I just didn’t know what to do in most of the missions because it’s so accurate to the movies that you’re expected to know what the characters do. When I replayed the game years later as a much bigger Star Wars fan, it was more intuitive.

How's JK2's performance on Switch? I know its Q3 engine but I still don't assume anything about this piece of shit

Somehow I've touched a nerve.

You faggots can't argue like adults if your fucking lives would depends on it, you instantly have to throw shade in bad faith it's hilariously childish.

KotOR 3?

SWTOR.

hur dur reee i hate it aahhhh

It was made by bioware and is the canon sequel so cry about it lmao. Actual Kotor3 wasn't ever a thing, at least not to a meaningful stage.

JKJA2?

Lol? At least mention something that was real and we've seen footage off, like the Maul game, but I guess your stupid fake fan ass wouldn't know about that.

Imperial Commando?

One of many concepts that never got off the ground to a meaningful degree

Now go and have a melty moment you shitposting troll

Holy fucking seethe. Filoni, is that you?

Can find JA, DF and even fucking power battles to pirate

Can't find Outcast

This dude is crashing out hard

JKJA2?

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I like how Rebel Strike comes with a coop-version of Rogue Leader built in. AND it's in permanent hard mode.

Is piracy a problem for people all the sudden or what is this about? Granted I have access to an insanely good private tracker, but surely public solutions haven't rotten THAT much, right?

Yes. It didn't go far into the development stage, pretty much all we know about the game is that it was supposed to give Kyle Katarn a closure.
KOTOR3 on the other hand had already had its main story and most of the side quests written by Avellone before it got canned, and there are also a few concept arts for the game out there.

Boring answer but kotor 2

I don't understand people rating JA that high. It's basically a glorified expac, JO is a way better Star Wars experience all around.

JO and JA actually need modern remasters

all around.

SP might be better to some, MP on the other hand is a huge downgrade compared to the potential that is JA

Force Unleashed

the first was a great game, the second not so much

Is piracy a problem for people all the sudden or what is this about?

No, I just have the games in their original format and would like to immerse myself in nostalgia by playing them similar to how I used to play them.

Rogue squadron 3 because it had 2 and some extra stuff (the platform levels were trash). Loved playing couch co-op with my bro.

metric ton of filler games and crapware

fewer filler and crapware

This is another one. This and RS should at least be on NSO. But they both have PC ports, I wish they would get proper modern releases.

Underrated. The book is rare to find now but it was all the rage back then.

I keep saying for years it needs to be adapted into film and that's the only good thing nu SW can do.

I liked both all things considered, just saying that people on here are huge fags.
Fair enough, not gonna argue that. I say use whatever works best, but you do you.

1080p

It's 2025, Grandpa!

I remember this game being incredibly hard on higher difficulties. I think there was a boss fight in some crystal cave or something and I was stuck there for a week until I beat through cheesing it

Episode III tie-in game is much better

this damn game always hit different, partly because it had a brooding and dark atmosphere to me. youtu.be/ClwK9FopdDU
played the last level so damn often god that shit was glorious

It's really fucking hard. I'm trying to play it now and I'm kind of dreading how hard it's gonna be. The entire Dark Reaper plotline was pretty cool though.

Back when my dad still played games, I think the spaceport was as far as he got. Not sure if he ever beat Slave, sorry, BOBA FETT'S STARSHIP

Obviously you can change the resolution values to anything you want. I haven't tested 4K on the Q3 engine but I'm assuming it'll run fine.

they only cancled it because disney bought star wars :(

Really? Because I thought the choice was so pathetically easy to let him live that I have never chosen the Dark Side path even once. You spend the entire mission getting harassed by the lesser antagonist Elora that by the time I got to the choice I would always choose to spare Rosh JUST to piss Elora off. Like, it wasn't even about Rosh anymore, Elora pissed me off that much and I refused to give her the satisfaction of watching me fall.

It's probably Academy's weakest moment to me because of that.

What's the appeal of consuming media about someone you already know will die like a bitch?

Slashing shit up with a double bladed lightsaber.

Point is, he didn't actually hurt anyone, chickened out as soon as shit got real before he could do some real damage, repented and had the balls to contact Kyle, and then lost a hand because of Alora.
Meanwhile, if (You) kill Rosh, Jaden chimps out at the Jedi, Sith AND the Republic, in addition to stealing a powerful ancient Force artifact, which is a wee bit more "problematic" than anything Rosh has ever done.

And yet, the amount of people who blindly hate and kill Rosh is staggering though.

i have yet to hear a bad remix of the mortal kombat song. its just that good. like guile's theme
youtube.com/watch?v=zwF3TUeylX0

That's all cool and all but Rosh could've blown up entire star systems and I still would've spared him just to spite Alora. Do not underestimate my pettiness when dealing with annoying characters.

I AM SO SORRY GEORGE
YOU WERE RIGHT ALL ALONG
FOR HOW LONG DO I STILL HAVE TO APOLOGISE

Favourite has to be JKA but there's a lot of competition. I can just play it whenever I want and have a good time, even if it usually devolves into dicking around with console commands.
Its multiplayer is sadly dead to me, I never played Movie Battles but that's what's most popular nowadays, that and JA+ Duel servers? Lugormod was my thing, playing on a disk copy I have no idea how many hours I put into it but enough to be level 40 with all classes and keep playing for years.

garbage.jpg - 306x513, 46.26K

To be fair, what you posted isn't evne a remix, that's just the song overplayed on an unrelated scene. But I get what you mean, the two songs became instant classics somehow, standing the test of time. youtu.be/t0qH2IaSjEU?t=15

that and JA+ Duel servers

Is that tryhardy shit still a fucking thing?

Lugormod

is that single player or multiplayer only?

Is it still haunted by hackers? I know at one point it was genuinely unplayable.

havent heard that in years

One of those oddball classics of the 2010s, at least to me.

According to the page I linked and it might be a lot better.

Fortnite
Apprentice Evie is a miracle of the universe and my loving wife

For me it was FR's Battlefront III that made me hate disney. Wish Luigi shot that bib fortuna in a wig looking bitch Kathleen kennedy instead

Like, elaborating on it further, using Rosh as the LS/DS choice would've worked better earlier in the game, when he's at the peak of his hubris and you actually fight him in a boss battle. But by the time of the actual choice Rosh is so irrelevant that it's almost comical, he's just there to tie up his subplot.

Conversely Tavion and her cult spend the game constantly taunting the player, and while that's to try and trip up a Jedi into losing focus, for me it and the jank around lightsaber combat just frustrated me and made me want to kill them even harder. You're even given a massive compliment of weaponry that's nigh-useless by the end because most enemies by the endgame are cultists, so they either Force Push or block anything you shoot. The anger I accumulated was NOT directed at Rosh, but instead at the cult.

If the choice had been between executing Alora (DS) or letting her go (LS), it would be a much more difficult choice for me, and I'd probably pick the Dark Side choice far more often than the Light Side one. It's the same kind of choice Anakin made when he defeated Dooku, with Palpatine egging him on to give in to his emotions and cut Dooku down. "It's not the Jedi way."

So I think the choice in Academy is probably one of the weakest in the franchise, not the strongest. Poor move on LucasArts' part.

That one I surprisingly enough remember lmao
The video is fucking great, absolute whiplash non-sense. Now for a real classic, from the mid 00s baby. youtube.com/watch?v=sTwEVq6VtgA

In a internet cafe with my brother one day, as a young teen

Some fucking how come across that video one day, downloading it

100% the original file is still on some long rotten away CD-R somewhere. Weird to think back to those days, only remembering tiny pieces of the screen or the cafe itself. No idea how I even fucking found that SW site full of fan content back then.

Yeah it is, quote from one of them "we duel all day." I played for an hour recently and felt really out of place because I use saber staff. I can fight with single and think I remember most of the tricks but I prefer fanning (spazzing) like a retard with a staff.
It was a multiplayer mod. I did play it on an empty server, doing quests and shit but it needs a community to really shine.

based

Yeah it is, quote from one of them "we duel all day."

Not even mad, why would I, but man that's some autism lmao. Then again who am I to say that, as someone that's still playing MB2 on and off to this day, 10 years after the fact. Fuck do I miss when these games still had 500+ people playing at once, not just 1-2 full server at most.

Definitely Kotor 2. So many hours, so many playthroughs. So many other games are just right below it too. 2000s was a fucking hell of time to be around for SW games. Kotor 2 excluded, which only became truly great after the restored content mod.

republic commando is probably my #1
battlefront 2 is close 2nd(i liked the remake too after they unfucked the servers and finished updating it)

This, though I never did play very far in Outcast. I hear some like it more. Absolute top notch kino games and all the better if you like Star Wars.

Probably KOTOR 1.

This. A lot of the discussion about the game is about the narrative and the missed content, but the gameplay is really fun, and the character customization is expansive enough that you can RP as basically anything you would want in a Star Wars game.

Except for someone that isn't force sensitive. That's actually something that KINDA annoys me about Kotor 1 to this day, the fact that they force you into being a jedi at the mid point, partly shitting away the skills you got for the first 10-15 levels or whatever it was.
Yes yes its the story obviously so whatever, but it's kinda annoying.

It always baffles me how hard the gameplay mechanics improvements are passed over when talking about k2. It's tough to go back to k1 even. And the way k1 handled your levels after re-spec'ing into a Jedi was just atrocious. Kind of wish someone would have made a total-conversion mod for k2 that is just k1 but with gameplay mechanics from k2.

I would want that purely for the fact that Kotor 2s PC version was unfucked by Aspyr years after the fact. Something they actually wanted to do for Kotor 1 also, but Bioware told them to fuck off, because they refused to give them the code needed for the job. So yeah, thank bioware for never giving them the code, otherwise we could've had functional widescreen and workshop support and prolly more.

only became truly great after the restored content mod.

because when I think of what makes kotor 2 fun, its lots of extra combat encounters and amateur voice acting because they only had text for cut quests

You don't, he's a faggot that hates you.

Jesus christ. I remember renting this all the time from the video rental. Good times :*)

Have people finally realized the Restored Content Mod is a fuckng meme?

Kino, I loved these as a kid.

which only became truly great after the restored content mod.

Hot take. The game was great by design, ESPECIALLY because of the writing by the poor fucker that was MeToo'd to death. The cut content merely improved things further, fixing some blatant plot holes, but not making it great to begin with.

star wars got 3 good movies, 3 meh ones and 3 dogshit ones

all the shows are garbage

there's at least two dozen amazing star wars videogames

why is hollywood so incompetent?

all the shows are garbage

Except one.

CW.jpg - 720x510, 102.19K

surprisingly okay game, though it’s far from my favourite

Depending on your region, that thing wasn't even a show, but two movies.

Filoni making a show where Anakin and Grievous can never meet because of 2 lines of dialogue in Revenge of the Sith

cooking.jpg - 1600x900, 144.63K

Filoni is fucking awful, everything he's done has been garbage

What does that have to do with the Clone Wars cartoon?

the dogshit ones are the ones by Disney so they have to aggressively pretend they're not shit and that everyone liked them

This is funny because Sam Witwer talks about how Filoni almost made an entire episode go to air episode where Anakin ruminates with his dead mother about how she would have loved to meet Padme and he had to correct him in front of everyone.

and he had to correct him in front of everyone.

It will never not be hilarious to me how Witwer, a random actor, had to call him out on his bullshit. That and the fact that Witwer is clearly far more knowledgeable about the franchise than fucking Filoni.

God this was so fucking good
Genndy in his prime was an animal

He's still pretty fucking great all things considered, far more so than most creator these days at least.

and amateur voice acting because they only had text for cut quests

It was literally only one quest that had that. There was dialogue for just about everything else they brought back in the game's files. Plus, there was much more that it did to fix the game than just content, lots of bug fixes and changes to the class tables and item drop tables that made zero sense in the official release of the game.

Started a fresh Kotor 2 run back in 2022

At some point stopped playing

Continued said run in 2024

A month later I stopped once more because I got stuck, no fucking clue where to continue

Really annoying thinking back, really wish I knew where I need to go, already been on all the planets multiple times to double check too.

main story and most of the side quests written by Avellone

Has he ever posted it anywhere? I'd love to read it.
The HK-47 ending segment is atrocious. And if you try to save in any of the new segments it corrupts your save.

Sam needs to strangle that fat fuck in his sleep like Leia did to Jabba and take over. He's the only one with any sense of passion and even corrected that retard Filoni on lore.

Not him, but I'm still pretty disappointed with how Samurai Jack and Primal ended. You're right though, still much better than the nepo babies from CalArts they keep finding.

Sadly can't speak much to Jack, and Primal I'm not even sure if I ever finished it. What was the last season of that anyway, feels like I missed out on 1 or 2 at the end.

>star wars got 3 good movies

Only the first one was good, ESB is the Redditor's Choice but it started the rot with the contrived bullshit about Vader being Luke's dad.

i didn't say the three good ones were the original trilogy

Redditor's

Opinion disregarded
Talk like a normal human being or fuck off you childish election tourist

You mean Jack or Primal?
Jack was just very lackluster and rushed.
Primal, I'd rather not spoil it for you, it's pretty fuckin' wild in kind of a bad way.
It's something that needs to be seen to be believed.

Kind of wish someone would have made a total-conversion mod for k2 that is just k1 but with gameplay mechanics from k2

This mod apparently kinda does that, but with some extra shit that I'm not sure if it's optional or not. moddb.com/mods/kotor-ii-tsl-expanded-galaxy

to give her blasters

She can be more useful by polishing my vibroblade

Primal. Never grew up with Jack, so I never bothered properly watching the final season he made years later. Saw random episodes as an adult here and there cuz of an US friend, but that's it.

it's pretty fuckin' wild

I mean, that's the show in general, innit?
Guess I need to figure out where I left off, think it was the season where they had a random episode playing in modern times, with some rape ape killing everyone in an estate.

Iden Versio is ridiculously overpowered, by far the best hero. Boba, Phasma and Bossk are close behind and depressingly Kylo is probably the best Jedi, Anakin might be better.

I mean, that's the show in general, innit?

Well, yes, but it's not wild in the spectacular way that the mad dinosaur disease episode was.
It's wild in a pretty "what the fuck was that" kind of way. At least for me and a lot of other anons. Maybe you'd like it, who knows?

that the mad dinosaur disease episode was.

Oh god I think I remember that, or at least hearing about it through trailer or something, really not sure.
I'm sure I'd like it, I'm easy enough to please, and the shows been pretty consistent.

It's great conceptually. The problem comes in the lack of care taken with how a lot of the content was restored.
This includes awful combat balancing in the droid factory and the Nar Shaddaa party section, as well as the voice acting for the enclave padawan (as well as her just using a modified Bastilla head).
Stuff like that could be fixed with enough time and effort. The awkward party interactions (or lack thereof) at the end of the game could even be fixed with AI voices.
Unfortunately, the retarded furry in charge of the mod pushes anyone with real talent and passion away, so it will probably just remain a half-baked restoration filled with problems until the end of time.

Does Anon Babble like anything?

I'm the representative of Anon Babble and I'm here to tell you that we like your mom's asshole.

modern Anon Babble? fuck no lmao, it's all contrarian bullshit and naysayer
no one can be honest and sincere anymore, its all ironic bullshit because zoomer dont know anything else

Have you tried reading your journal? You know, that thing that tells you what you need to do?

Faggots like this act like they matter when bringing up tie fighter but never bring up dark forces....

Is that an HvV or Conquest tier list? I can't tell because some things in the tiers under S make no sense for either mode and the buffs and nerfs over the lifespan of the game changed things up so much. I fucking miss BF2 HvV so much.

Yeh, it isn't really the best on its on, there are some mods that sorta fix it and let you remove or alter some of the iffy shit they added (yeh a mod to fix the mod, I know), but I still prefer to play it with the mod than without it.

I spent way more time playing tie fighter and g police with my joystick than most other games around that time

OK

I like spicy burgers

Which is funny considering the the dialogue in the show also highly implies Grievous and Obi-Wan never fought and Anakin and Dooku never had a re-matched in between Episode 2 and 3.

Forgot how fun this game can be in the 40p mode, or even supremacy (conquest)
Thank god someone bothered to fix the servers to a degree, get the hacking shit in check
SHAME THE GAME IS STILL A BITCHY MESS ABOUT FORCING HDR FOR NO REASON, plus anakin is still an annoying OP cunt

The Anakin and Dooku thing can go either way really. If anything I'd weigh it more towards what it is today than what we'd assumed from back then. Anakin in AotC was still a Padawan and the Clone Wars had turned him into one of the most powerful Jedi of all time. His powers doubling since Geonosis is an understatement. What dialogue suggest Obi-Wan and Grievous never fought? Nothing I remember really stands out to me except that awkward line about being trained in the Jedi arts by Count Dooku that Greious says before he splits his arms which is clearly just exposition for the audience about why this cyborg who isn't force sensitive can go toe to toe with a Jedi.

all that matters is Anakin's powers have doubled since last they met

Reminder that Griev was lied and tricked by Doku, his entire clan (or race, even?) getting shot right to hell, all so Doku could have Griev on his side.

Post setting so I can try

USE THE GODDAMN WIKI
literally all you need to do

I would have raped someone for a continuation of the Super Star Wars games for the prequels. Fucking Super Revenge of the Sith would have been insanely difficult.

I think it was retarded for him to sell it but Filoni was already raping shit near the end so I've made peace with it.

turn off gpu texture decoding

turn on exclusive ubershaders

it runs almost flawlessley only lagging when loading a new shader

Huh.

state-provided Sith GFs fucking when

trilla.jpg - 1182x849, 102.01K

I could have saved her

Ugly.

Indian

Fucking ruinined

Disney

Yikes

seems you posted the wrong gf, let me help you

hey hey hey Star Wars is dead

I wish.

Yes, it really is that easy these days. Same goes for FzeroGX or special cases like Metroid, which was one of the prime examples why ubershader became a thing. Quite GPU demanding at higher res, but man does it resolve a lot of issues, especially lagging wise.

I tried it out and it mostly works but I went to Hoth and it couldn't run worth a damn for me. Fucking bizarre. My CPU and GPU may not be top tier anymore but they're pretty close. I wish we got a native port of Rebel Strike and Rogue Squadron if the Wii versions won't ever surface.

Sorry anon, love is a "nice" emotion, therefore part of the Light Side. The Sith won't provide you with a GF, just enemies to slaughter.

Him saying he was trained by Dooku and Obi being clearly surprised by the four armed gimmick seems like an obvious implication this is the first time they fought, I can't see any other interpretation.

The GPU being a bottleneck is easy to notice by the usage, especially when exclusive shader are going and your res is set too high. This can spiral out of control real fucking fast you'll notice, exclusive can be real damn expensive.
CPU is obviously hard to gage, but as per usual it's the main culprit with badly running emulation.

Native Port

I don't wanna imagine the pain of pulling that off, considering all the custom bullshit code going on that was purpose made for the GC. Prolly might result in either partial code rewrites being needed or another case of GTA San Andreas.

Yes, yes, cute brownfu.

However

I want a Star Wars game that lets me romance a Bothan.

No you don't.

Why are there so few cute Asian girls in SW?

I genuinely do, and I have for the better part of three decades.

No. You don't.

space black cripple lesbian IP

I've ERP'd with multiple of them back in PreCU SWG. You cannot comprehend my tastes.

You really, really don't.
This isn't up for debate. It's a fact.

That was a great show. Really enjoyed S1 then couldn't find it on tv. I should go back and see how the series turned out, I remember it being really good.

I'm going to keep enjoying Bothans and no amount of denial from you is going to change that.
Truly a shame we didn't get more. Fucking FOX and their airdate changing buttfuckery.

It's over. Let it go.

All they had to do was fire Kennedy and hire literally any of the millions of fans and no matter how shit it turned out, it'd still be miles better than what we got.

No. There's an entire world of Star Wars to get lost in that hasn't been touched by Disney or Filonishit and I will protect it with my life.

stop enjoying things

The EU is amazing for giving you whatever you want. Luke romancing women? Boom, Heir to the Empire. Grand Imperial strategy? Boom, Thrawn trilogy. Jedi temple shenanigans? JJK/YJK. Bounty hunters? Trilogy. X-Wing tactics? X-Wing series. However zany they get is entirely up to you. I fucking love that. It's a CYOA overarching canon.

I recently finished the Jude Watson Jedi Apprentice novellas and they are fucking sweet. I highly recommend them to anyone who wants to read more about Obi-Wan and Qui-Gonn and their relationship.

you fags sure talk a lot about star wars but no one of you joins the party Anon Babblean while were playing star wars

I didn't see the thread.

I always miss it, don't know if it's bad timing or what, but if I'd seen it I would've joined in.

well TRY to join us now >: (

I still have nightmares with the Dark Reaper (the final boss). It was so big and those beams hurt like shit.

has no shields

uses projectile weaponry

self-destructs

What the fuck was his problem?

Being too based for the franchise he found himself in

That is the sexiest thing I have ever seen.

THATS A MAN BABY

I've been reading the EU in chronological order minus some shit like anything related to TCW or TOR, (it's a pretty decent way to go through it I recommend) and I really do believe that the KOTOR comics are peak star wars. It really was a ton of fun to read. Zayne Carrick is such a fun protagonist. Actually I'm surprised just how high quality the stuff I've read in general is. The Lost Tribe of the Sith collection is a must-read too.

i miss jka seige. not movie battles

Finishing the audiobook of I Jedi while driving and I'm really enjoying it in spite of Corran being a major gary stu and the rant towards Luke around the halfway point.Courtship of Princess Leia is still my favorite post-ROTJ EU book just because of how awesome Luke is in that book. Isolder is a great character too. I wonder why Disney hasn't touched the Hapans if they're so desperate for girlboss characters, but that's probably for the better.

Funny way to say the B-Wing. Did you know that it's one of the Rebellions most well armed star fighters, the B-Wing, has been personally designed by Admiral Ackbar. The B-Wing supports an array of weapons including ion cannons, proton torpedo launchers, and laser cannons. Because the cockpit is surrounded by a unique gyro-stabilization system, the pilot always remains stationary, even as the rest of the ship rotates during flight.

what you posted is a very close 2nd though

Okay who the fuck let the Miraluka pilot.

It was just a joke!

I dunno me and a few buddies decided to try it out a few years ago and I had a lot of fun with it. My friends got kind of pissed at me though because I was legitimately enjoying the storyline for my character and was taking it all in and enjoying it instead of skipping through all the dialogue and shit.

I think most of the class stories are good. I think the expacs are ass.

Grand Army of the Republic has Kino aesthetic.

For me, it's the Y-Wing.

This is kind of what I do in Thrawn's Revenge on my NR runs at the start. Just spam a fuckton of picrels and have my gorillion fighters shred the enemy capital ships while they can't do shit to them. I like to capture as many of the neutral Venators as I can to put in my Quasar fleets for extra fighter spam and because it looks cool

somehow, the Death Star has returned

kedi academy #1

force unleashed

Shitter
Outcast has way better levels and encounters

install Rise of the Mandalorians mod

gets shields (and power to shields ability)

mass drivers replaced with high damage turbolasers

point defense turrets shred fighters instantly

full population fleet of these can casually fly to the other end of the map and delete every enemy in the way

From of the chud of warships to an absolute gigachad.
I love Empire at War mods.
