Its alright, but it’s nothing I’d say left a real impression.

My fav was a strategy game called Rebellion. I first played it when I was like 9 but I loved it. I wish there was a modern version of a game like that.

Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy is my favorite Star Wars game, especially multiplayer. Closely followed by Fallen Order and Survivor. Also not to forget Star Wars Episode I Racer.

The Final Season of The Bad Batch started today premiering with 3 Episodes.
With it being the final season all bets are off and that’s evident with the ending of Season 2. It’s been leaning into darker theme’s and it’s something I can respect especially for these CGI Projects.
Honestly after this season and Tales Of The Jedi Season 2 I wouldn’t be surprised if they retire everything pertaining to The Clone Wars Animated Series. Bad Batch has always felt like the epilogue to it and as someone who grew up with The Clone Wars it’s bitter sweet.

I feel like I’m in the minority when it comes to the SW Battlefront Classic Collection since it’s release.
I’ve been playing it since launch day probably like 10-14 hours after it became playable and it’s been enjoyable experience playing through it again. A lot of people apparently had server issues from lag, rubberbanding, crashing, or other glitches but I haven’t encountered any of that. All the servers I’ve been in had good ping and ran smoothly. The only connection issues I have so far ran into was SOMETIMES after a game was over I’d lose connection as it loaded the next map. But even then I could just rejoin immeditaly in a few seconds and it continued to be stable gameplay. Idk if it’s because I played it on PC and it’s worse for different consoles or if my location gave me better connection to the servers but I’ve been enjoying it.

Ooh. Another mature-looking Star Wars series is coming soon. 
“The Acolyte”
Trailer should drop tomorrow, the 19th.
I don’t pay attention to much star wars stuff, but this show was created by / head showrunner will be Leslye Headland (from Russian Doll) so that immediately has my attention piqued!
In The Acolyte, an investigation into a shocking crime spree pits a respected Jedi Master (Lee Jung-jae) against a dangerous warrior from his past (Amandla Stenberg). As more clues emerge, they travel down a dark path where sinister forces reveal all is not what it seems….
The series stars Amandla Stenberg, Lee Jung-jae, Manny Jacinto, Dafne Keen, Charlie Barnett, Jodie Turner-Smith, Rebecca Henderson, Dean-Charles Chapman, Joonas Suotamo, and Carrie-Anne Moss.

Classic Collection is… fine. It just pales in comparison to Battlefront 1 and 2 Classic that are available on Steam and Xbox BC program. I do think they should have delayed it by at least a few months instead of rushing it out because the Quarter is ending and they wanted an easy cash injection.
On Battlefront 2 I’ve Noticed This.
- Music is Quiet
- A.I Pathing for Death Star Hero Assault is Broken
- Various Crashes especially in the Server Selection Menu
- Missing Textures on various maps resulting in invisible walls
- Poor AI Upscaled Textures
- Post Mission Cutscenes are missing in Rise of the Empire
- Victory and Defeated Music is lower pitched from the original.
- Online Multiplayer is blatantly unplayable, shots don’t register making combat one sided.
- Kit Fisto has broken animations compared to his original XB version.
- Missing QoL features that existed in the original release.
- Weirdly the Campaign movie clips are A.I Upscaled but the clips shown on the Main Menu aren’t.
- No Upscaled 501st Journal Cutscenes. (Probably because they were made during Beta)
- Text Font is changed from the original.
- Ki Adi Mundi voice lines are still broken.
- Cheats don’t disable achievements (hint hint for people who want to unlock permanent combat medal rewards)
- Mod support exists on PC, but the set up process is convoluted and more of an hassle.
- Missing portion of technical things happening on the backend that existed in classic.
- Bloatware because of AI Upscaled Textures and Cutscenes.
- Rise of the Empire “Objective Change” sfx is changed
While yes my list tears into the game I want to add that the Singleplayer experience while missing over half of the campaign’s cutscenes is entirely playable and by far currently the recommended way to play the games because the Multiplayer is unplayable despite being the biggest draw to this release.
Do better Aspyr and treat Star Wars releases like you do any other release such as Tomb Raider or Stubbs the Zombie.

I wanted to mention the reason kit fisto and Asajj Ventress animations are weird is because the code for them were stolen from a mod

So Star Wars High Republic show finally got a trailer.
For people who need a timeline of events Acolyte takes place between 500 BBY -100 BBY. I’m already seeing discourse on if “The Acolyte” is Sith largely because of Red Lightsabers and Ki Adi Mundi’s remark of how the Sith haven’t been seen in over a millennium.
So I see this going one of three ways, acolyte ends with the Jedi covering up the Sith not mentioning it in the Jedi archive which aligns with how shady some aspects of the Jedi Order is.
Everyone dies who encountered the alleged Sith.
Or they completely ignore established lore from Georges contribution with the series and Sith actually appeared before Phantom Menace, it was archived, and Ki Adi Mundi is just a stupid Jedi Council Member.
As for the Red Lightsaber debate. Dark Side force users are able to corrupt Kyber Crystals. What should be acknowledged is while Red Lightsabers and Sith are seen together commonly. People think it’s an exclusive paring, but it’s not.
In Jedi Survivor, Dagan Gera is a fallen Jedi who corrupts his Kyber Crystal after being betrayed by the Jedi. He isn’t Sith, just a fallen Jedi.
So i think im gonna need to see how acolyte plays out. I’m apprehensive about what I see, but it’s largely because it can go one of two ways. Sub par like mando or excellent like Andor.

We know that the Sith will work from the shadows in The Acolyte series. Laying the foundation of their revenge that culminated with Sidious. I believe that we will see Sith Lords. But it might not be the one we see wield a crimson blade. My take it’s a dark side warrior, like Asajj Ventress and the Inquisitors. They serve the Sith, without the formal connection. Expendable warriors in the servitude of the Sith Order.
Serving as a distraction and assassins, when the Jedi gets to close. Easily dismissed as fallen/ dark Jedi. There have been plenty of dark side cults outside the Sith Order. I believe the hubris of the Jedi in their hight of power will play into their beliefs that the Sith is no more.
Either way I look very forward to this show.

Ooh, so this show is gonna take place before Phantom Menace?
That’s pretty neat. Haven’t seen much Star Wars media that wasn’t set during a time where the Empire ruled or were engaging in an active war between light and dark.
Yes. It takes place around 100 years before Episode I - The Phantom Menace. This is the end of the era called the High Republic, when the Jedi were at their hight.
I hope we see Darth Plaguies in this series. If he isn’t human he could have a long lifespan. They have yet to reveal his canon species.

Yea The High Republic era which is a great point of contention amongst the fandom since aspects of it work with it being a key part of Jedi Survivors story and then part of it is very infantilized geared towards children.
It’s the series new playground after The Clone Wars era has been exhausted and we further get context of post ROTS and further elaboration on stuff seen and set up for the Sequel Trilogy.
I’m cautiously optimistic about acolyte. It looks interesting, but it doesn’t particularly excite me when the creator flat out say that they don’t care if you like it or not.
At this point in time, I would expect any creator (especially in the Star Wars universe) to have a pretty tough skin about what they create. Half of the so-called “fandom” will complain and hate it even if it’s amazing. Star Wars fans are the worst fans these days and anyone who creates anything in this space better not take what those “fans” say to heart.

June 4th! I had no idea it’s coming so soon.
I really have no knowledge of anything before the clone wars / episode I. This should I be fun and, as others have pointed out, it gives the writers lots of room to explore without running into retcon issues and having to make it all fit within the existing story sauce.
Shouldn’t Yoda be alive though?
For me it’s more so you aren’t making me excited for the project you’re putting your heart and soul into if you’re taking a very standoffish approach when advertising it. My point being it has nothing to do with the fandom in its entirety rather why how me and you (the consumer) should be excited for this project.
Yes he is, he’s one of the oldest members of the Jedi Council training force users for more than 800 years.

I wonder if he was the boss back then or if he was just a rank and file Jedi AND I’m so curious if we will get to see him at all in this new show?
