The rumors weren't 100% correct, it first believed that a video game would be the first High Republic media out but that ended up not being the case.
Could be splitting hairs, with the planned films truly being in the earlier 400-500 years before period
There never was a HR film with Yoda. He might still show up in the comics.
Can we get someone like Desaan back? PLEASE~?!
Good time to recommend Star Wars audiobooks. They have licensed music and sound effects layered in nicely. Well produced way to read Star Wars.
I feel that. But hearing the sound of a lightsaber turning on is such a dopamine hit to my brain that I find it the only way to read the books now. I'm a simple man.
As a design question after establishing what the galaxy is like, followed by what the jedi are like on top of probably explicitly not wanting to do anything sith related. It's a good question.
The most thematically interesting conflict in ROTJ is the one between Luke and Vader despite them literally having NO effect on the battle outside. It's not about the fact that some people can use the force, it's always about the characters. And jedi aren't gods, they're just as vulnerable as everyone else.
If we're looking at the force as something that lives in all living things, is it too far fetched to say that the dark side (or darker side of the force) is subtly influencing the Nihl? Or rather does there need to actually be Jedi and Sith for there to be a dark side of the force and the light? Maybe they're still fearful of the dark side, but since there's no group of Sith or core dark-side users, they're more concerned over how the dark side is affecting the rest of the universe.
It's damn Star Wars. I don't think this pitch they're selling is particularly exciting, but if you are straight-up not interested in the Force... what exactly are you looking for? Someone upthread complained about bounty hunters and scoundrels. There is nothing they can do to make everyone happy.
Without force users, there is very little that differentiates Star Wars from any other sci-fi space opera. Kids love them, and this project seems to be very youth-focused.
And the Jedi Knights being actual Knights? We Game of Thrones now.Rival houses
Sith empire
given we see that Jedi tower/space station in every frame the great disaster's mentioned, I'm expecting it to go boom.
Star Wars will never reckon with this and it's terrible. We humanized Stormtroopers before we did R2-D2. It's insane.
My mind first read this as "no Senate chamber"
you gotta remember that part
