you forgot best move. Being one of most honest and trustworthy force user independent of the side . He is always honest and if he plans to kill you, then you will know it. He doesn't manipulate.

[@pablojosediablo]

No, his best move is the trumpets whenever he puts his hood on. Super fresh

What I love about Malgus is that he hates both the Jedi, and the Sith. Each time he comes back he's always trying to undermine both factions and form the galaxy the way he see's it.

interesting that when Malgus took the Holocron at the end it looked like he actually opened it, which suggests that he is no longer Sith and obviously not a jedi but something in between or something else entirely. when I last played, I had just finished the whole eternal throne story, though I do know that Malgus had become disillusioned with the Sith or at least the empire as it currently was, but it's still interesting that it's now to the extent where it appears he's able to open what looks like a Jedi Holocron

@@airsoft6147 This is a Sith construct, though, so by logic it'd be a Sith Holocron. They said it's to find the ones the Jedi leave behind. The Sith want any recruits they can get. More likely, though (and fitting the SWTOR lore), it's a simple datacron. A repository of data, but no "Librarian" interface.

[@UchihaOokami2596]

"If one is to understand the great mystery one must study all its aspects, not just the dogmatic view of the -Jedi- Sith." I can definitely see malgus finding more of a balance but definitely still a Dark Side user.

[@jasonvaiken2033]

That is such a peak Sith move though. While he disagrees with the Orthodoxy interpretation of the Sith. He does believe firmly in individualism and growth through struggle. It would have been easy for him to just blow the rubble away. But, he just went- "If you really want it you'll survive." Then strolled away.

[@zshakur]

That saber choreography was AMAZING!!!

[@existential_sad_boi]

The trailer also kinda shows off the new way classes work. Malgus is usually depicted as a juggernaut, but he grabbed the second saber and was kicking ass, meaning he would have switched to a marauder ifhgting style

[@Thareldis]

He was allways able to do so when you consider that he did that in the first trailer chronologically.

[@EntertheEther]

[@grosseapp6109]

I think the lighsaber fighting in this one is good (especially with Malgus)and I felt the force of the lightsaber strikes and blocks with this one. I also think that a certain amount of weightlessness can make sense because they can use the force while fighting to maneuver around more freely, simmilar to how Yoda did it. I think the reason why we might not see that as much in live action is because it is harder to do than in animation, with real world physics hindering you and all that stuff.

[@TechnoShogun1]

Sure, but if they can do Avengers level stunts, like everything Thor does in Ragnarok, then Disney(of all companies) can afford to use cgi mixed with practical effects to achieve this level.

[@danzansandeev6033]

yeah that's not true. remember ahsoka vs maul fight from clone wars season 7? it was mockaped. if it can be mockaped that means you can do it in live action, just requires good editing and choreography

@@danzansandeev6033 "we cant have it just be mockaped, so we had to take it and make it fit in the style of clone wars, faster lightsaber hit, higher jumping, stronger poses" - keith kellog, animator supervisor for the maul vs ahsoka fight "the fans will really like this fight is really grounded, routed" - lauren mary kim, ahoska's mokap actor the people working on that fight agree with the OP doing it 100% live action isnt possible because of the limitaions of it being live action and while yes you can add or enhance it using cgi the more detail you have for your models the more expensive that becomes

[@Reguwudo]

Oh yeah, as a martial enthusiast Malgus' combat in the trailers are always well-grounded, having that perfect balance of realism but also how it'd change up for a 'superhuman' like force-sensitives. This one has that same premise, and a few key parts make me really love this animation. My only complaint is that Malgus would have destroyed that Padawan, but I believe the point he was making is that he wanted to convert her, not to win in a fight with her, which I dig.

[@TheLoos3Goos33]

A little piece of info for those who want to maybe try out the story. You only have to sub to SWTOR for one month and you'll have access to the entire story even if you decide to unsub. I know lots of people who sub for a month when new content comes out then go back to free if they want after.

[@pyrosiumofficial]

Wait, if I get a sub then it expires or whatever, I still get to keep all the content that the sub gives you? I have played and ik there is some stuff like companion skins and what not that you cant get without a sub, and I imagine little things like that lose access, but if I get to keep the expansions, thats cool.

[@rsick266]

@@pyrosiumofficial Correct, you need to pay 1 month of sub and then all the released story expansions/DLCs unlock permanently. If you paid at least 1 month of sub, when it expires you get Preferred status which is somewhere between free and sub. There are some restrictions ingame wise if you are not a sub (you need to check their website for the list of benefits and restrictions for F2P, Preferred and Sub) But if you're in just for the story, 1 month sub is enough and then replay the story on how many classes you want.

I think i find more joy seeing Eric's face, with anything Star Wars. The joy and giddiness in his face are extremely legit, kind of a glow, so precious.

[@ShaggySatyr]

Something I've always really liked about this cinematic is that it slips in a reference to Malgus's tunnel vision. There are tiny hints in one of the other cinematics. But it's never mentioned in any cinematic or the game. But it is expressly mentioned in some books that Malgus has tunnel vision for whoever he is fighting. If you pay close attention during his duel with Sa'har, specifically at the moment she disarms him of her master's lightsaber. The trajectory of the hilt passes behind Sa'har's head and into Malgus's restricted cone of vision. Then he looks down at his now empty hand. It's hard to tell from just the cinematic but at least one of Malgus's hands is cybernetic. Even if his right hand isn't cybernetic, we know for a fact from the same comics and novels that canonized his tunnel vision that when Satele Shan threw Malgus through a mountain he had every body in his body broken and multiple organs liquified. It is far from a stretch to imagine Malgus having nerve damage. Especially if the bones in his hands were broken. If his right hand is indeed still flesh then it likely has little to no feeling on top of being in a glove. So it's reasonable to assume that with no feeling and intense tunnel vision Malgus didn't notice he was disarmed of Sa'har's master's lightsaber until he saw the hilt fly past his cone of vision.

So… Malgus is looking for a way to find Force sensitives who were rejected by the Sith and the Jedi. That’s terrifying.

[@WraithReaper09]

More rejected by Jedi then Sith. Up until the Sith Inquisitor story anyone who was Human or Sith Pureblood with any level of Force sensitivity were given training, granted a lot didn't survive the training, but it was a requirement that any Force Sensitive children be handed over for training to become Sith.

Exactly. If you play it like a single player game which it's geared towards more than ever since the numerous updates since launch you get KOTOR 3 and several sequels in the process as well.

@@andrewli6606 You're not considering time of production and labor force/wages amongst other factors.

Something to keep in mind is that Malgus is 73 when this is taking place. He was born 3700 BBY and this takes place roughly 3627 BBY, after the Meridian Complex Assault which was a year into the Third Galactic War which began 3628 BBY. Also Malgus is 7 ft. tall.

The cinematic trailers for this game are so good. They almost always give me chills.

[@brettdiving2744]

Somebody in the comments correct me if I'm wrong because I have not played in VERY long time, but to my awareness, Malgus is not technically Sith any longer at least by definition of the Sith Empire. If i'm remembering correctly, after you defeat Malgus, he goes rogue from the Empire. Malgus has never shared the same black and white views of his fellow Sith regarding the force. An important thing he says in this cinematic to Sahar is how the Sith and Jedi are essentially two sides of the same coin. Malgus takes the final phrase of the Sith Code, "Through victory, my chains are broken", very much to heart. That's what we wants: complete domination where he is not held to the "chains" of any one dogma or the other. This would also fall in-line with his final statement to Sahar: "When you are ready, break free." Again, I'm just spitballing my thoughts here because I've not played in a good while lol. I don't know what the current state of the SWTOR story is right now, so I'm basing this observation on what amount I played years ago.

[@StupidWeb]

7:15 there's a little light motif of Anakin's betrayal

What's not been mentioned (as far as I know) in any of the reactions I've watched, is the difference between the two scenes of the little girl being "chosen" and taken away from her brother. - In the first scene (at the start of the trailer) she's shown going happily with the Jedi and looking up at him. However, in the second scene of this (when she activates the machine), she's shown going less willingly and is unhappy at leaving her brother. Which is the true one I wonder?

@@danymann95 So, would the video game be a companion-piece to the (supposed) Live Action miniseries, The Acolyte, since that story takes place during the last days of The High Republic, and coincides with the birth of Sheev Palpatine? My impression was that the video game was possibly going to bounce around from the different periods of the epoch of The High Republic, from the time of The Nihil, back to the time of Phase Two's storytelling (150 years before The Great Hyperspace Disaster), and forward right to the last few hours before THR ended.

Oh yeah, I still play SWTOR. Main as an Imperial Agent. Which kinda sucks because they stopped writing the new stuff with anyone but Sith and Jedi in mind ages ago. Will be checking this new expansion out tonight.

Fun Fact: General Veers' actor's son plays Malgus

[@kylegareau9238]

Man i remember buying a comp when this came out just to play it.... havent played thou since the hutt cartel expansion.

The reason why it doesn't look and feel like any of the previous cinematics is largely due to a different animation company other than Blur worked on this one. This one was created by ILM which did the original special effects for the original trilogy.

Malgus is one my if not favorite "Sith" Lord his story is so fleshed out in a little bit of time in these short cinematic trailers I love them Bioware has such a great understanding of how Star Wars is supposed to look and feel I really wish they were responsible for all star war games on console and PC KOTOR is my all time favorite star wars game ever and they need to do a CG animated movie set in the Old republic one can dream!

[@roncelune9901]

If I still can't join Malgus in this expansion I will fucking riot I swear

[@captainmannering3334]

I believe SWTOR outsourced the cinematic to ILM instead of blur this time round. And I have to agree ILM's style for this cinematic does feel floaty with its inertia. Of course its still a brilliant cinematic and looks great, I just personally hope they go back to BLUR in the future, Their lighting and animation is just unmatched.

The Planet is Elom. And the Temple is build by Darth Nul an old Sith.

[@remxmbr]

Malgus is definitely a top 5 Star Wars character period.
