I saw this last night on a different site and it was already closed.  I’ve seen this article written on almost every other gaming news site today and ALL OF THEM fail to mention that you actually can’t download it.  Super click bait.

While they were simply a costume accessory for many years, the Star Wars Rebels cartoon first identified them as “Code Cylinders” - essentially keyfobs to get into secure locations. They feature in Mando Season 2 (Chapter 12: The Siege), which I believe is the first time we’ve seen them used in live action.

They open doors and stuff, keyed to the person who wears them. An episode of rebels had them steal someone's to frame them and take the heat off the Fulcrum informant.

I dont really mean Actual Marroks, but it is going to be those gas filled suits which are going to give Thrawns army a huge boost in power by giving them a force of  however many inquisitor like people.

Thrawn decides to assume Ahsoka is alive until he knows otherwise and asks to know everything about her: “background, history, homeworld, her Master, everything.” (That should make for quite the crash course.)

His projects come in on-time and under-budget, and he addresses his invoices in a timely fashion. He’s a fucking monster.

So, did they set out to make Thrawn look like Elon, or is that just a happy accident?

He’s polite to contractors! His troops trust him! He must be stopped! 

It’s obviously a nod to the 1984 Dune shuttle...

The foreshadowing is definitely there for that, given his comments about ressurrection.

Someone said they are caskets of dead Night Sisters to be resurrected back in the SW galaxy and join his fight.

re:Dark Magic - It pairs up with the “Witches of Dathomir”, which I honestly have always felt was an odd choice that only seemed to be an attempt to make them more primitive and superstitious, vs the elegant and knowledegable Jedi. 

I think the Unknown Regions angle doesn’t work for several reasons. First, it’s not Unknown to Thrawn - so he could have just left whenever. The location that the whales took Thrawn and Ezra too needed to be sufficiently far away that they weren’t players in the OT.

It kinda felt like this was where the show took a hard left turn into horror, with Peridea’s rings being revealed to be purgill bones and the surface looking like something out of a From Software game. And there’s also the sense of something nasty living on the planet or maybe in its oceans, like Cthulhu done Star Wars…

Look, I’m never gonna like the extra-galactic bullshit happening here (since I’m an old EU Legends nerd and pissed they jettisoned all of that stuff; Outbound Flight and other sources had a Galactic barrier, a la Trek, that made crossing it impossible — Jorus C’Baoth hypothesized Jedi could “smooth” it to pass through)…

The best part about Starfield is that you can go down all of these faction paths with little to no friction.

Does he have a ghost in the trailer? If he did I missed it. I just figured he was a projection, or something left behind in the traveler (which they appear to be inside at the moment?)

But then she turns to face you and you see how many rows of teeth she really has

Scores? What is this, 2009?

If by “Beyond Earth” you meant the far superior Alpha Centauri, then I entirely agree.
