SWTOR: Legacy of The Sith - Official Cinematic Trailer | Reaction

[@primecoconut4204]

“Peace is a lie, there is only passion. Through passion, strength. Through strength, power. Through power, victory. Through victory, my chains are broken. The Force shall set me free.” The padawan experienced fear, anger, and hatred. Malgus made her suffer for her actions as the final stroke to begin her path to being a Sith, that is the legacy of the Sith and will always be

[@wreccen]

Uuuu this.

[@cl1cka]

What I really dislike about SW movies and how they portray Siths - most are simply evil for the sake of being evil....I kill puppies for fun style... It should be about following your own path and not Jedi dogmatic ideals, not about backstabbing everyone....And the "One master, One pupil" shit that came from the movies is simply idiotic. Siths can still have honor and loyalty. Not to mention an Empire ruled by people who backstab all the time is simply doomed to fail - no normal soldier is sticking around after their commander was just killed for whatever superficial reason, cause on Sith felt like it....

[@jaieregilmore971]

@@cl1cka True in the end the Sith are people too.

[@chalk1415]

@@cl1cka This game is doing something really interesting with the Sith as we see the the empire evolve into less backstabbing and more tolerance for other races and respecting non Sith opinions more. I like to think that this was mainly from Darth Marr's influence but it also just makes sense as well considering these ideologies were weakening the empire as the war dragged on.

[@antonn1912]

In our religions also has on advice : throuth pain you become clean and free.Modern jedi always try grow padawan in some isolated mentality with only teachers point of viev and that is one of main mistakes.They just supress free will and self aware of young jedi and not let them feel real rude world and agree with some of their Jedi teachings ,Sith made same situation and they both fall .Malgus also become free thinking force user with own interests. He can grow 2 jedi but get only most easy variant to train. I want add some phrases. the further you are from the truth of the world . The further away you are from the force . Through overcoming yourself Will you find a balance in power. Pain is only sand of the way. Without true you have no way. Light and Dark is just part of whole .

[@stevencouture1481]

Your main character resembling the new main character in the trailer is no accident Kyle...it is the will of the force.

[@Fi_Sci_]

Seeing Jinnata’s cousin in action was pretty sick. Also great to see Malgus is still alive and just as much of a backstabber as ever. Also they totally just pulled off the knife trick from The Last Jedi at the end of this trailer with the Holocron.

[@pkmovies92]

I wonder if Malgus in carbonite is canon. (In The Old Republic canon)

[@lichcoin6144]

We learned he was alive in the last expansion. Apparently (then) future Empress Acina rescued him but then turned him into her enforcer Suicide Squad style or similarly enough. Near the end of the last expansion he broke his chains both physically and (so he claims) ideologically. Excited to see more of him here tho!

[@CeruleanSword]

It’s been known that Malgus is still alive for years now.

[@willl676]

Tbf, Starkilled pulled off a similar trick in Force Unleashed. Except Luke didn't manage to block him but still.

[@Xashe_]

I really want an Old Republic trilogy or disney+ show. And that hint of Anakin's Dark Deeds at the end was so cool. Malgus' 3D model looks fucking insane.

[@Oshaoxin]

Won't ever happen. Because it'd be too awesome. Disney doesn't do awesome.

[@zabludokiarts975]

Dude I feel that was some form of Sith training. Straight up murdered her master and subjected her to physical limitation and her force limitation then told her to break free after subjecting her full of HAAAAATE. I fucking LOVE IT man.

[@michaelbasileos]

@SmashStomp Inc lol no. An actual Sith would behave just as Malgus did here, especially if he saw potential in the Jedi. The Sith have made a name for themselves from corrupting Jedi. Heck the first Sith were fallen Jedi. It's what they do. Only a Sith with poor foresight/lacking in Dark Side wisdom would forego an opportunity to corrupt a Jedi Padawan.

[@TheHandofDestiny]

@@michaelbasileos It is a fact that Malgus is no longer a sith, well he betrayed the sith empire since he basically didn't like how they were

[@voltagedarth6453]

I love how malgus was used to show the new combat system. He is usually a juggernaut but used the force to wield lightning and a rock (like a sith sorcerer and jedi sage) then used her masters lightsaber to be like a sith marauder instead of a juggernaut. I know he's used force lightning before but I think him grabbing a rock from the ground like a sage right after using force lighting was a way to show off the combat system a little

[@marcusmcgill4423]

Malgus used double sabers way back in the "Return" cinematic trailer when he fought Satelle Shan's Master, bro. You said this comment on another post about showing off the new combat when that is not the case.

[@redcardinalist]

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?

[@Will008]

I like how Malgus used a little bit of the Sith Code at the end to manipulate her before he left with the holocron.

[@pixelmator]

I love Twileks they look so bad ass especially as a Sith with the red skin, tattoos and red light saber. This will be very interesting to play, been waiting for a while. May the force serve you well...

[@ReveredDead]

The trailer should honestly be called "The birth of a Sith". Cause she is well on her way to being a powerful one. I hope in the story as it progresses we on the Empire side get to bring her into the fold.

[@jediclonekag13]

I am so freaking happy that we finally got a new SWTOR cinematic trailer, and it is absolutely incredible.

[@Nico68311]

The trailer was awesome! Every time Swtor brings out a new cinematic trailer, I wish we could get an animated movie in the same style. Also, the toy in the beginning could be a reference to the Mandalorian (a Mudhorn), or just a puppet of some random animal (maybe a Reek)

[@catswithlasers]

I loved this trailer and how it brings up the unanswered question: What happens to the children that the Jedi don't take? I feel like the only time I've seen in was in the 2017 Darth Vader comic, where one of Ferren Barr's group was the brother of a Jedi and how he joined Barr after seeing about Order 66 on the Holonet. Also, Malgus is HUGE compared to the other characters. I never realized just how big he is.

[@doodoo5594]

there’s something so badass about malgus just casually teaching this jedi padowan that he’s currently fighting

[@dustinredeagle9465]

My boy Malgus stays stacking bodies.

[@weirdchick257]

Lol, Malgus the Betrayer for a reason. xD

[@Avenger85438]

I tink she's been feeling guilty for being brought into Jedi over her brother for a long time and never choosing to leave to find him, and that device brought those feelings to the surface which she projected onto her master in the heat of the moment.

[@MikeBison_]

Pretty sure that was Yavin and Yavin IV in the very beginning

That makes more sense

[@Doodchillbro]

malgus is about those team kills haha

[@MrBlueSky3057]

How did Malgus open the Jedi holocron? Does he use the light side as well?

[@Ziaotic]

probably what helps make him different from your usual Sith.

[@__last]

Looks like Malgus wants to create a non jedi or sith order so he probably learnt how to use the light hence his non orange eyes and seemingly calmer attitude (minus the murder of the jedi master)

[@kerem_1404]

Spoiler: Malgus was gone rogue again after Onslaught. In 10th year anniversary teaser he was speeking like he's against both Sith and Jedi. In fact; that Malgus was A reformist Sith and once he rebelled against the Sith Empire and created his own Empire (failed), he could be used both sides of the Force.

[@iso-didact789]

[@rheahinshaw7471]

If you want more of the backstory of Malgus you need to read the novel Deceived. There is a story arc before Legacy of the Sith that is directly related to the book.

[@quicksilver2140]

The planet at the start of the trailer was Ryloth. 😊

Really shows that the Sith true weapon are manipulation and mind games. As for the Jedi master I think he really regretted his actions and wanted fix his mistakes cause the vision show frew parts of in but not full picture like Anakin vision of Padme dying.

[@arzn253]

These cinematics been incredible since '09. Don't know why there hasn't been a TV series or movie with this animation yet 🤔

[@TheJayFoxx]

This trailer was pretty amazing indeed. Also, at 7:30, what outfit is your Jedi wearing because it looks amazing! (I fell a bit behind watching your playthrough because life got buys.) No spoilers. But as far as I know this expansion is a new story. They teased Malgus in the interlude missions after onslaught, but nothing of what the expansion actually involves story wise.

[@ItachiUchiha-ih2zw]

I don't know the exact name of the Outfit but i'm pretty sure i saw it in the Store of the Game before (just in White) maybe that helps a little

Sounds like Malgus is abandoning the Sith and going his own way.

[@Ed-qo4oz]

God I love this game, some of the absolute best Star Wars stories, and onslaught you can get through in an afternoon lol

Well, this trailer confirmed that Malgus's weakness is stone rocks. Everytime someone throws one of these at him, he gets knocked out.

[@peterg.j.macpherson2451]

so Darth Malgus has definitely made a turn against the Sith, though he hates the Jedi just as much, it seems.

Good ol' Sith infighting. Malgus is a perfect example. Doesn't even bow to the Emporer/Empress.

[@orcasin112]

That looks incredible.

[@StarWarsComplete]

Always love your reactions man! I totally agree though, the SWTOR cinematics are absolutely beautiful. I really need to get into this game.

[@irishswag101]

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.

[@Reshtarc]

Malgus is no longer a Sith. He is a Force Lord. He is called a traitor by the dark tooper he kills at the start and you hear him say "This is how the Sith and Jedi maintain control" .....Over the force.

[@tonyvaldiconza3914]

That was insane!

[@spartangaming8559]

Malgus Might Be The Next Revan could Go both Ways His Eyes aren't orange Minus the Jedi Deaths

[@treysosa683]

They should make a movie about a sith turning into a jedi

[@Reshtarc]

tython and Koriban are the planets at the start. Holocron map to the kids the Jedi found not worthy to train. Unlike the one of kids ment to become padawan's that Cal had in Fallen order after order 66.

[@dritzzdarkwood4727]

I went to watch your playthrough of SWTOR through your playlist, is there a chance you could reverse the order the playlist is in? Currently, it is going from your most recent to oldest.

[@RadioactiveLobster]

The fact they have not had the team behind these cinematic do a TV show or a full movie is a travesty.

[@layonduff]

I dont know much about Malgus. Does he have or plan to have some kind of order of his own? It seemed to me like he was dissing both Jedi and Sith when talking about the discrimination they do against who they choose to teach or not.

[@lukecamilleri4383]

seems like it. I was on his side this time ngl

[@AuspexAO]

Malgus is dangerous as hell because he will take all followers and doesn't have the stupid, self-defeating xenophobia of the traditional Empire. He runs his empire like a meritocracy and even those who aren't strong can still serve as they can. Honestly, he's the worst kind of villain because he has a lot of really fair and tolerant ideals but is still evil as hell and will kill whoever he can to achieve power.

[@starwarstimeline]

Hey Kyle, this looks seriously legit!! I also started my first character with my KZbin channel. This trailer was hype as hell. Glad you liked it man. I also had no idea on the story here.

[@hordelord4759]

[@arthousebill]

Looks Insane

[@ragingcyclone369]

To get the backstory to this, play Onslaught.

[@petrgalko4152]

Say what you will, but Malgus is right. Yes, he manipulated his way to the Holocron, but everything that he said was 100% true. Jedi like to play gods and in doing so create demons and devils. There is no light or dark, there is only the force. Force in its nature is pure power, it's us that infect and twist it. If only Malguses empire had succeeded... The future could have been so much brighter and nourishing!

[@petrgalko4152]

@SmashStomp Inc I esentially said this thou... xD . By "manipulating his way to the holocron" I meant that he used the knowledge he saw in her to get his hands on the holocron. Not that he manipulated her with a lie.

In my headcannon Sahar instinctivly used Force Scream after the anger and shock owerwhelmed her at her masters death. I mean otherwhise she beeing a Match for Malgus, if only just for a few seconds, wouldnt make much sense taking into account what a beast Malgus is as a Warrior.
