I actually much preferred the whole "All souls go to the same place" interpretation where Jedi see becoming one with the force as heaven and Sith view it as hell since they lose their individuality. There's more of a cosmic irony to it, especially since the Sith then build their own hells trying to avoid such a fate.

I agree that's a very fitting way of explaining the star wars afterlife. I still find it pretty depressing that only people that learn the force ghost technique can go to the afterlife, not sure if that was true for legends tho or if it was just clone wars
@battlesheep25522 жыл бұрын
@@BalakeFisher my interpretation of it is that all become one with the force, it's just Jedi who learned the force ghost technique can maintain their identity. However, I think it's like in order to do it, you must dedicate yourself to the force itself, so that once you become a ghost you can only do what the force wills, which is why they never do much.

@@BalakeFisher an unfinished novel called Supernatural Encounters explores heavily into the ethereal and Lovecraftian aspects related to the SW galaxy (universe), its lost history, and the very Force itself. Chaos in its last version is a semi-nerfed version of Hell where only the most wicked beings in history are casted into it. But for 99.99% of other living beings, everything goes to the Celestial realm (heaven). When the end of creation comes "all" souls will be called back to the Celestial realm and subsequently "The Supreme Maker."

Dude probably didn't wanna make 2+ videos of him retracting what he told fans with certainty just a few weeks ago. And it'd be great to see him break down sections of the novel in parts on this channel or discuss it on his podcast with his friend in depth. But I'm gonna be honest, he could only say so much in these videos before he loses people completely (not outta interest, but understanding) when discussing something like SE. I only think a fraction of the EU community even know about it currently and with the overwhelming mass of casuals in SW videos nowadays, they'd have no choice but to listen to something they have little to no context about. Hopefully this'll gas some fans up to go read the novel but that might also turn some fans off with the page count and immense Silmarillion-like lore.

I just don't buy the whole idea of Hyper Rapture at all. Hyperspace travel is very common in the Star Wars galaxy and has been so for tens of thousands of years. If this were a real thing, even a rare one, it wouldn't be a rumor. With that many people traveling hyperspace on a regular basis over that long a period, there would have been many cases. Even if it were very rare, ther would be a large number of new cases every day. It would be a well-known phenomenon and starship crews would take precautions against it. The most obvious and simplest precaution would be to simply close or darken the windows so that people can't look out. They never do this though. I see no benefit to the crew being able to see outside while in hyperspace to counterbalance the risk that would be involved.
