MechanicPluto24 both of those are Luke, with a *30 year difference* . To say he maxed himself out at 22-23 and can never make a mistake again is boring, unrealistic, and stupid. It’s called character development. Ups and downs. Whether you like it or not. With myself currently being around Luke’s age in the OT I find myself a completely different person every year, can only imagine how much I will change in 30 years. But maybe you’re right and I’ll be the exact same person.

In SW legends, you know, the mountain of lore that Disney claims doesn't exists, he fucked shite up, he lost people he esteemed, he had "ups and downs", Luke changed, but never became a doomer who needed a boring Mary Sue to lecture him on how not everything is completely shite, that is stupid, now like it or not, Disney fucked up and defending the undefendable just proves that you only knew that trash, but never the real Luke. And of course the cherry on top, here comes the "Me hurt, me story, me relevant", what a wanker, is ever necessary to bring shite up that nobody cares about? This thread is talking about a character in a fictional setting and out of the blue comes a git in OT and saying how much he changed through the years, what with it?

As much as i liked the gameplay and visuals and most of the missions. I would have rather Iden and Del defect to an Imperial Remnant that was against Operation Cinder then defect to the Rebels. A side that wanted to preserve order and its people of the Empire and have them fight against the Imperials following Operation Cinder, least that would explain how the Empire had lost so much of its military power by a large infighting over a small Rebellion somehow winning in a year. Just my two cents. I was just hoping for a more Imperial based campaign with little to no Rebels involved.

[@stephenkenney8290]

Exactly! It would have been a far more compelling story.

[@sergioruiz733]

@@stephenkenney8290 I just think it would have been a great jumping off point to create new Imperial characters, that could be used in later installments comics, books etc and would have at least given the Empire some nuance. My biggest problem with Operation Cinder, is if the leader is dead why would anyone care to follow it? Even in the last days of Hitler's Germany there were ranges of opinions, some wanted to burn everything to the ground, part of the SS wanted to hide in the Austrian Alps and have a guerilla war, etc etc, I just would have liked to see some more naunce in the Imperial leadership.

[@St3a1thsniper32]

They wanted to have this story tie in with the new saga. Disney basically wants people to forget about the old trilogy. That was their clear intention with episode 8. Kill off all the old characters to make way for the new characters. They want things to be black and white. Evil versus good. Having morally grey characters isn’t appealing anymore. Hence the reason the turned Luke into some crazy old hermit. That’s the only way they could get rid of him in a semi reasonable way without newcomers to the series wondering why they killed off a good guy that was really powerful. I honestly like this BF2 story. It has problems but the character arc makes sense. Iden and Del finally see first hand how evil the empire truly is. I guess I’m just not a big fan of playing as the villain so I’m glad I didn’t have to.

My cousin read Inferno squad and said it was dumb that they took such "Die Hard" Imperial Loyalists and forced them to defect even though from what it sounds like they were undercover in the Rebel Alliance for months and never even hinted at the idea of betraying the Empire. Honestly we all should have had the right to sue EA for the most extreme case of false advertisement I've ever seen in gaming. Hence I'm not even going to consider getting Fallen Order unless it's getting god tier reviews left and right. Looks great, but it's EA we're talking about. Even if it's Respawn, I refuse to pre-order or even consider getting until I get some extensive reviews that say it's worth getting.

Meh, I liked the campaign, even if it wasn't what I was expecting (I thought we'd play the whole campaign as an imperial). It was a bit of a mess and the pacing was way too frenetic for its own good, but there were good things about it: 1) It got Luke's character exactly right (unlike TLJ), even if the mission was short and lacked interesting enemies. 2) Shriv and Lando were awesome. Shriv in general is a great addition to the Star Wars canon. As a bonus, the mission was pretty decent too. Also, Billy Dee Williams as Lando! 3) Good use of the Williams score as well as new music. 4) Del Meeko and Iden Versio were both pretty likable. I wish I could say the same about Zey though (she was introduced too late and under chaotic circumstances). 5) Voice acting was pretty damn good, almost top-tier. 6) The big set pieces were pretty good., as were most of the space missions. Emphasis on "most."

Eh, I'd blame that on the writers of 7. It really makes no sense that the new republic didnt have an entire army after seizing control, and episode 8 made it sound like everyone in the galaxy was down for subjugation again.

It's because some higher up, whether Kathleen, JJ, Disney or someone, want soft reboot Star Wars back to the ANH state. Good guys are a small, under equipped, rebel force of guerilla fighters with rugged outfits who hides on remote planets. Bad guys are a large, military force with legions of soldiers in clean white armor & control a portion of the galaxy. The Jedi are nearly extinct.....again & with most thinking they're a myth. It's because of the backlash the Prequels got. They wanted to push Star Wars back to the style more associated with the OT. They wanted to avoid the PT style of Star Wars storytelling. Jedi everywhere & common, both sides being fully armed & equipped military forces who control regions of the galaxy respectively & can have large scale battles with each on the regular. Rather than continuing push Star Wars to something different & risk losing people, they opt in to revert the style back to ANH state because that's what general audiences & Anti-PT Star Wars fans loved. Even though they kind of undid the victory of ROTJ.

Well, the US military establishment has always looked down on irregular fighting forces, yet after Vietnam they should have known better than to underestimate such an opponent... Then they get embroiled on a decades-long conflict in Afghanistan, where their superior military might and technological advantage counts for little. Therefore it's not so hard to believe that people running an Empire willing and capable of building TWO moon-sized battlestations and 25k Star Destroyers would look down on a ragtag group flying converted cruisers shaped like cucumbers 😂

Y'know, I don't really mind Inferno Squad defecting aside from the misleading marketing, but imagine if the campaign actually was what it was made out to be in the trailers; A story about how the crumbling Empire transitioned into the First Order, told from the perspective of boots-on-the-ground soldiers. You could explore each Squad Member's reason for staying loyal - Iden out of subservience to her father, Hask out of self-serving ambition, and Meeko out of loyalty to his Squadmates - and how it slowly corrupts their friendship. The DLC could then be about Meeko finally defecting after his daughter Zay is about to be brainwashed like Finn was, killing Hask and fleeing with her to the Resistance, only to be killed by Iden, leaving Zay alone to defeat her mother. As for the story of an elite group of Commandos defecting, if you want to make a game out of that, might I recommend a Republic Commando sequel? I imagine it playing out sort of like the Bad Batch in reverse; Sev, being presumed dead and abandoned, becomes one of the early members of the Rebellion, while the rest of Delta Squad stay with the Empire as it emerges from the ashes of the Republic. The Clones are treated exceptionally poorly, with Sev's replacement being an asshole non-Clone, who eventually gets orders to terminate the rest of Delta over suspicions about their loyalty. In comes Sev to save the day and invite the rest of the Squad into the Rebellion, with them completing several missions and eventually making a Halo Reach-esque last stand on Scarif to tie into Rogue One.

[@moviehermit5631]

I think the campaign should have been entirely focused on Del, Hask, Iden and her father. We didn't really see much of their relationships,. - Idens father seems to have lost faith in the Empire last second, but was still willing to die on the ship. Iden put up no fight and had no emotional reaction - Story beats were rushed, making things feel unnatural. Seriously, Iden and Zay discover Del is dead, Zay is completely calm and not at all emotional and tells Iden to calm down, and she just does that. - Hask supposedly "died". I have no idea if that happened in the battle on Jakku, or some time after. There was no emphasis so it didin't have any weight. - This was basically 2 games with some DLC at the end all crammed into one game. The first game would have been about Inferno Squad, their relationships, as well as Del and Idens gradual defection. The second game would have been Del and HAsk in the rebellion, as well as their personal struggles with Hask and Idens father, while also developing the romance (Seriously, Del and Iden had like 2 scenes that said "These two will end up together" and then they just threw it in there). The DLC was the one set during _The Force Awakens_ and it adds nothing. - Zay was way too calm and chipper after having lost both her parents in a single day - If they took out the Han Solo, Lando Calrissian, and final segment in _TFA_ missions, they would have had time to properly develop other things if they were so adamant about having two games in one.

Dominick Efrim That’s a motorcycle helmet, designed to absorb physical energy and keep your head from opening like a walnut if you fall off the bike. Armor in Star Wars works differently, since the vast majority of weapons in circulation are blasters as opposed to ballistic weapons (slugthrowers). After all, when someone’s got a gun, a motorcycle helmet isn’t your first choice, right?

When it comes down to "return on investment" I would rather spend my money on this game than on the atrociously bad movies. It does has not only the proper Star Wars backdrop where my imagination can fill in the blank but has at least a decent campaign and not only that - Its gameplay is excellent, even ignoring the multiplayer. - It does not murder my favorite Fish - Iden Versio blasts Wesley "Rey" Crusher out of the water so magnificently it is stunning - ID-10 is WAY more interesting, capable and above all cute as heck than that rolling tennisball BB-8 - It does not murder my favorite Fish - Agent Hask is a FAR more effective imperious bad guy than a guy like Hux - It has Shriv .. who is just .. awesome and EVERYTHING a diverse and fun Star Wars character is supposed to be - Kylo Ren keeps his helmet on (and is not the watered down version of Anakin who is watered down version of whatever) - Luke is still the adorkably awkward sword-slinger instead of a withered old Ebenezer type Junky on a withdrawal streak. - Princess Leia as a frontline fighter pilot? AWE-SOME! - And did I say it does not murder my favorite FIsh? Etcetera and etcetera again ... The campaign or certain characters in it are by no means perfect but it is entertaining, it is fun, it has a decent story, I can conventiently completely ignore the multiplayer and so on. Overall far more worth the money (and provides a more entertaining Star Wars "adventure" (for lack of a better word) than two teeth grindingly bad movies that really murder the franchise completely and are not for a single fraction of second entertaining to watch.

I see alot of comments about people bitching at the campaign. "We want to play as the empire in a story." "Another Empire defect campaign." Ok so your Empire campaign would be what? Set during movies 4, 5 or 6 and you would either be hunting/killing rebels or even better on Endor shooting midget bears. How is that any better? The Empire is just about as boring as anything else is they are the typical evil bad guy dominant force that the good guys have to defeat. What are you all expecting? What I pulled from this games campaign was not another Imperial defection story but the in between answers of how the Rebel Alliance and the Resistance got their information on certain targets or operations of their enemies. You know in the movies you always hear about the intel networks. How in Episode 6 Mon Mothma said famously that ,"Many Bothans died. . . .to bring us this information." I recall in the Rogue Squadron games there was a mission where you stole an Imperial Shuttle the very same one used by Han Solo and the gang to get to the Forest Moon of Endor. How cool was that? These games always tend to have tie in stories about the lesser known characters who make what happens in the movie possible and thats enjoyable. If you people always complain and bitch you'll never enjoy anything. Life's too short for that shit.
