Star Wars: The Old Republic - "Hope" Cinematic Trailer

[@TheOrangex88]

Came back here to remember an elegant trailer from a more civilized age

[@dawn-blade]

It simply astounds me how truly ahead of their age the Old Republic trailers were. We do not know how good we had it. This was before the dark times. Before the Disney Empire came. We, the true Old Fans, must mount a revolution to save Star Wars. Disney is evil incarnate.

Make this an animated movie. I don't care. Just turn this into the perfect Star Wars movie.

[@RevanStarrrR]

It would be perfect but ive heard that the issue is that one minute of CGI like this costs over a million dollars. Though considering that this is Star Wars, you can probably make the money that would go into a feature film back many times over.

[@TheLordUrban]

RevanBladeZ This whole clip might have cost between 500k and a million. Not cheap but doable for a big company like Disney.

[@shirakou1]

Damn, the troopers in this trailer actually hold their own against the Sith, you don't see that in any of the movies or shows

[@JohnSmith-kz1pg]

In the movies and shows, we are always in the era of the rule of two, obviously a master training an apprentice will make both very strong, hence how they're so powerful in movies. Here though, this is before Bane was alive though I believe, so pretty much anyone who was passionate could be a sith, so obviously with less training than in a master-apprentice relationship, some of the sith are really weak, like, they can barely hold their own, that's how Jedi like Shan and Zallow could cut down the 'weak sith' so easily.

[@mcdergan]

+John Smith indeed, this is roughly 2000 years before Bane, actually probably closer to 3000.

[@goku500000000]

+John Smith Still, Captain Jace resisted a lightning from Malgus, he would have even managed to stab him if it wasn't for the fact that Malgus pushed him with the force. and may i remind you, malgus was a Sith Lord.

[@JohnSmith-kz1pg]

Diego Alvardo I agree, he should've died during the lightning blast...but its just a game trailer anyway, and its meant to be 'epic!', even if stuff that doesn't happen in real life happens...

[@imnesstee]

+Diego Alvardo maybe he had an Electromesh with environmental underlay mesh, giving +90% lightning damage resist, with +will resistance modifiers. Also, keep in mind both of his feet were planted, giving a nice conductive path to earth ground. he also held a dagger that could focus much of the lightning.

[@survivor686]

2:52 - 2:54: Yeah, the Jedi doing the flips and all is cool. But did you see that Republic Trooper leaping out of the bushes (in the background) slam his rifle butt into that sith trooper's face?

Commando armor is pretty tough however not this tough. I’m pretty sure it’s more advanced though with a HUD and foldable Energy Shields.

[@WhiffIes]

Imagine being a Sith Lord, one of the most powerful beings in the galaxy. A bunch of humans try to fight you, so you show how futile their attempts are by deflecting their weapons without even drawing your saber. You see a republic trooper throw away his gun as he realises the futility.... then you watch him PULL A FUCKING KNIFE AND CHARGE YOU HEAD ON 20 minutes later, you disarm a jedi master and force her to her knees, practically ending the battle AND THE SAME TROOPER YOU HIT WITH ENOUGH FORCE LIGHTNING TO KICKSTART A STAR DESTROYER FUCKING RUGBY TACKLES YOU, CATCHES YOUR PUNCH MID AIR AND THEN BLOWS A DETONATOR IN HIS OWN FACE

It’s very simple math. For obi wan to win the battle, the high ground merely needs to exist in the battle. He wins even when he has the low ground because the high ground is present. This is why he doesn’t like fighting in space, as the relativistic concept of height doesn’t exist there.

[@anightmareonpokestreet5882]

Aequitas 1995 Dude, I don't know what you're saying. These are Republic Troopers from thousands of years before even the prequels. Later on, the army of the Galactic Republic somehow ceased to be until the Clone Troopers were brought in at the beginning of the Clone Wars. The Clone Troopers were the ones who executed their Jedi generals, not the Republic Troopers of the Old Republic.

[@SamaritanPrime]

***** Pretend that these troopers were around during the Clone Wars.

[@Grandrepublic501st]

when people say "why do clone troopers look different?!?!" im like, "what clones! these are actual people who can take on the sith!!!" and there is a reason why this is called the OLD republic, its because this happened almost a couple thousand years ago, so people who dont know alot bout the old republic, please do research and find your answer there and not ask stupid questions because im pretty sure there were no sith knights in the clone wars like there was in this video... just sayin people, im just sayin so please dont hate because its true ^.^

[@Smujge]

***** Not almost a couple, but rather, around 4000 years before the Clone Wars.

[@Smujge]

***** Ah, okay. Thank you for the correction. :D

[@Grandrepublic501st]

Pujge Egjup thanks bro, at least you get what i mean lol and so does everyone else in this comment section

[@DiddyBohlen]

+Grandrepublic501st And they are not just soldiers, they are Havoc Squad as seen by the armor and the fact that the guy was their leader. The republics best squad ready for any situation.

[@Grandrepublic501st]

Gary to tell you the truth, these guys are more badass than clones(even tho they are my fav lol) because they took on droids, human sith soldiers, and sith knights. It cant get any better than that! XD

[@jeremybk54]

you know u have the best fighting force when u realize that instead of running or panicking at sith charging you, you charge back head first at them

[@KNIGHT.COMPANY]

As much as i love the Clone troopers, Republic Troopers are the better bad asses. These guys went head to head with Sith and could kill them. The fact that Jace literally embraced force lightning from a Sith Lord like Malgus is utterly insane.

[@JDBW]

That clone trooper was a beast, tanking force lightning and still pulling out a bowie knife

[@IAmMoto25]

That's because he isn't a clone trooper. He's part of the old republican army. This takes place thousands of years before the clone wars.

[@Molinaridude]

I agree (not to mention effortlessly punching 2 other sith in the face), but I feel it necessary to point out that during the time period of the Old Republic there were no clone troopers, these are just regular enlisted troopers.

[@IAmMoto25]

Molinaridude I bet he never he read the wiki about Star Wars The Old Republic. He just assumed by looking at their armor that they were clones.

[@Molinaridude]

True, the republic has always had a very specific taste in armor

[@jackdoyle1607]

+JDBW This unit was no ordinary unit of Republic soldiers. They were specifically trained in fighting sith along with usual soldiers, thus why many of the soldiers knew how to counter and kill the Sith depicted in the video.

Just for anyone's information. THIS is how to make a woman badass. She does not need to have a girl power moment or rub it in our faces of how awesome she is. There is no feminist agenda here. She is not powerfully out of proportion with what a jedi is. It makes sense. She just IS AWESOME and POWERFUL. They did a great job. I am sick of the complaining about women in media and video games. Make a woman in a video game or movie like THIS, and I will fan scream in the front with the nerds. The first time I saw this trailer, I got chills and was HYPED. She saved the men's lives, while being a badass. What an excellent job making a trailer with a woman lead.

[@crischie4744]

Yes, I totally agree. SWTOR has many good female characters (Shae Vizla, Vaylin, Lana Beniko, (...)). But Satele will be always my favorite.

why cant we have a movie about jedi vs sith, now that would he awesome

[@Machgun3]

that's basically every Star Wars movie. Jedi vs sith, except that the sith have the rule of two.

[@wickedomega9614]

+Min Zhang That rule of two thing is such epic bull... the clone wars tv show had more than two sith active at the same time, and Ahsoka's presence in Rebels pretty much makes it cannon. So basically the whole there can only be two thing can not be true.

[@RevanStarrrR]

The rule of two means that there can be only two Sith. Even though there were many dark side force-users in the Empire, Vader and Palpatine were always the only Sith. Inquisitors and Shadow Guards and the like are not Sith.

[@wickedomega9614]

***** Both Ventress and Savage are called Dooku and Maul's apprentices at some point in the series, so at the very least they're sith apprentices :S

[@103035icle]

+Wicked Omega they actualy talk about that in the star wars mini series where vetriss calls herself sith before dooku shows her what a true sith is.

I know everyone talks about when Jace Malcolm (the commander) tried to tackle Malgus (two times I might add) but my favorite moment is when the Sith troopers are about to execute him. He looks up, right into their eyes with the look of “If you’re gonna kill me, look me in the fucking eyes.”

[@paulgrey8314]

+Matt Bradford It's directional mine which blows up in a certain direction - in this case - outwards. Malgus obviously used force yet it still damaged him and his suit.

[@taylorprobets4661]

Pall Grey i believe that :) i saw someone say that Malgus used his force to defend himself and Satele used hers to defend Jace (is that his name?)

[@paulgrey8314]

+Taylor Joseph (CubeTheIce) Jace wouldn't need protection since that mine wouldn't hurt him, yet he fully realized that it might kill him. And he's not any soldier but commander of elite Havoc Squad - best ops team in the Republic, so how they battle Sith is no surprise.
