You have to almost admire his pluck in trying to convince people that his ideas are 100% New and Different when they clearly are mostly neither.

How could anyone say with a straight face that it’s not art? It provoked a conversation. It got you to speak up. It offended you! Isn’t that what art is supposed to do?
This. 10,000 is an extremely small number of our own planet’s population (we’re talking decimals of a percent). Now zoom out into a whole galaxy with hundreds of inhabited systems.
People tend to forget that the characters in Star Wars haven’t seen Star Wars.
Where does it state Han’s never heard of the Jedi? He says he doesn’t believe in The Force, but those are two different things.
Imperial propaganda machine + all the survivors staying in hiding?
Yeah I think the old Legends canon was that the great majority of Jedi weren’t all killed in a single operation, but were hunted down by Vader and the emperor’s force-sensitive assassins like Mara Jade.
They weren’t “all over the galaxy.” There were about 10,000 of them. There are THOUSANDS of planets, with trillions of inhabitants. You really expect everyone in the galaxy to have seen and know about a group of people that’s less than the population of Rhode Island?
Some 10k Jedi across an entire galaxy is not much. Han Solo could have lived his wole life during the height of their power and only ever heard rumors about them.
He had heard of the Jedi, he just thought they were charlatans, e.g., “A lot of simple tricks and nonsense.” And there could be trillions of people, like Din and Carga, who know nothing about the Jedi or the Force. The stories just tend to focus on people who are better informed.
I just wish chests had rupees in them more often. Hate opening a chest to find yet another weapon.
That said, I’m perfectly happy they got to try some weird stuff...
A 6/10 review isn’t harsh. It’s positive, even! My broader issue with review scores is that there tends to be nothing between a 5 and a 9 on a 10-point scale. Games that are actually just Pretty Good get a bunch of 9s and 10s, and it makes any *reasonably metered* score look insane.
100% EVERYONE deserves a living wage if they work. Solidarity! ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼✊🏻
Its less of an issue since you can “repair” weapons through fusion, but yeah, really tired of this mechanic in general.
Yes! That’s one of the things I really liked about it, it really was not afraid to go weird. And yet it all still felt “Star Wars”. There were hints of the same kind of thing in Clone Wars when Anakin and Obi-Wan find themselves on that weird force planet with the dark/light forcebeing siblings, and I was hoping we’d…
Tell me that EVERY worker, at EVERY level should be able to fit on this chart
Easily in my top 3 favorite SW moments ever
Have you thought much about how that’s intentional?
Yeah that’s where I’m at. If I’m a jedi, let me feel like it. Instead the controls and whatever just feel like some of those other games with regular HUMANS lumbering around. Are we that starved for decent games that this rockets up the list? Does it get bonus points for telling a good story?
