An action is “kind” if it is done not for the sake of oneself, but for that of others. However, like you have pointed out, Vader merely had his own interests in using Galen for his own gains. So while Vader does indeed save Galen, and while it may appear to be kind from first glance, the intention to be kind was not there, so I wouldn’t really describe this as a kind action of Vader.

For those who accuse starkiller overpowered in this moment, I'd just like to note that this is a very instinctive usage of the force and because he was born from 2 jedi, he will be stronger than the average force sensitive. This is also a video game so the power levels will be bulked up for the players enjoyment. If people feel that I am wrong then that's fine because yall are allowed opinions. But the point I'd like to make here is that starkiller is not as overpowered as he seems in the actual cannon of the legends continuity as he is nerfed significantly in the books and comics. If anyone reads this thanks for your time and have a good day.

[@AGuyWithOneWing]

No no, you have a point. Starkiller's parent(s) is/are Jedi Knight(s), so it's obvious that he would have a strong enough connection to the force at birth. Much more, being a several year-old child rather than a newborn. Also, you have a good day too, man. Thanks.

My headcanon is, that it's a combination of Starkiller's talent and Vader just being surprised. Vader may be the chosen one, but he's not immune to being surprised.

The way Vader acts after he says “a son” brings a tear to my eye especially when he immediately protects him and kills the troopers

[@jasoncummings7]

There's something I can't help but notice about Galen. His fighting style. Vader uses a modified version of Djem So, a variant of the 5th form of lightsaber combat. It's an form that prioritizes aggressive action without creating a weak defense. Galen uses the Shien variant of Form V, which uses a backwards lightsaber grip to prioritize blaster deflection. (Not surprising given the era) There's only a handful of Force adepts I know who use Shien like that. The first one that comes to mind is Ahsoka Tano, Anakin's padawan. Doesn't sound like a coincidence. Now I'm not saying that Ahsoka had a hand-in with Starkiller's training, (would be an interesting What-If episode though, if they ever made one) but still. Interesting.

Ah, The Memories...

[@basedbattledroid3507]

Coolest way to start a game though, playing as Vader, watching the empire destroy everything around you, etc. Also those stormtroopers look like they tried to embed a little vertical stripe underneath their visors so they could pretend to be clones, that's so cute.

[@StarWarsExpanded]

Yeah, the devs talked about doing that on purpose so they looked similar to clone troopers. I'm going to upload the alternate version tomorrow with the 501st that was on PS2/Wii. It's epic

[@basedbattledroid3507]

@@StarWarsExpanded nice, thanks for all the terrific uploads

[@natedog769]

This and the original battlefront games were some of my first extended universe experiences and they really opened up my mind to what video games could be in terms of story as well as how interesting the star wars universe can be

[@happyshark2098]

There needs to be a movie about star killer so it’s made cannon

[@chocboyjr7624]

They'd have to nerf his character for him to be made canon tho

[@digimaniacstudios5959]

Make him an Inquisitor that Vader took under his wing training him to be more powerful.

[@samot4100]

I've never really liked the idea of vader just flat out having an apprentice but it would be cool if he was a Inquisitor.

[@randomdood5196]

Star killer is so powerful he breaks the cannon

[@alphawolf1786]

He was cannon til Disney happened

[@BubbleBum4082]

I LOVE THE USE OF ANAKIN’S BETRAYAL IN THIS!

[@DiscountNoob02]

Agreed because I feel in this moment anakin did shine through the darkness and he did betray the empire for a few short seconds

[@gira5455]

I love how even some of the games are canon It just builds the story on and on

[@GitSumGaming]

Sidious: “goood gooooood strike Vader down and become my apprentice!” Darth Vader: “he’s like 7 bre”

[@custommediacreations]

I love this game a lot. Darth Vader is an awesome villain and a great master.

[@awm8414]

Two things went through Vaders mind "A son" is what Anakin felt, and its his reminder of Ashoka to be a master again

[@redjulius33]

I have always thought this was one of the greatest moments in Star Wars since I first saw it.

[@Stak0]

both Force Unleashed games were absolute masterpieces. They both NEED remakes.

[@jaredrelkin4620]

I hated the "Starkiller" base in the new trilogy. They stole the name without know who it belonged to.

[@fightingmedialounge519]

Technically both this and starkiller base are referencing what Luke's original name was going to be.

[@Soulraven2735]

You know what a reference is, right?

[@hobomike6935]

You know the Disney sequels are trash compared to OT and prequels, right?

[@AntasmaTheBatKing]

@@hobomike6935 Yeah, you tell him! The Sequel Trilogy can kiss its canon belongings GOOD-FUCKING-BYE!

[@Gareth-410]

It belongs to Bendak Starkiller - the most famous duelist on all of Taris.

[@realleefrom9339]

"Come with me, more will be here soon" That was so Anakin of him, so very Anakin

[@MortisDebates]

I love how Vader reaches his hand out like and slowly walks to starkiller as if to say I ain’t going to hurt you haha

[@moxxiegaming9359]

Immagine if they did a Film about him along with Rogue one. That would have been amazing. I still hope that we will have a 3rd force unleashed game because of the endings in the second game.

[@novagamer4513]

Yeah it would be really cool to have a third game about me.

[@d.dementedengineerc99isurf26]

I never bothered to finish the second one! 😆

[@caesarvalorvmsheevpalpatin8755]

I dont think Disney would allow a game as violent as TFU, I mean Fallen Order didnt even have dismemberment for humans

[@acenashton7296]

@@caesarvalorvmsheevpalpatin8755 I believe the Jedi have a no butcher rule with the only exception being droids.

Vader: Did you call me... Master? 🥲🥲🥲🥲

[@GengarsEvilSpirit]

I remember when these graphics were considered next level.

[@lonestarwolfentertainment7184]

You can’t tell me Vader didn’t eventually come to see Starkiller as a son, by this point in the timeline Vader is convinced that his child (did he even know that Padme was pregnant with twins?) is dead because of him, there’s no way he didn’t see Galen Marek as what could’ve been.

[@Oakenconduit]

Never seen the old British style knight ceremony tapping the sword on the shoulders to make a new sith. What if one of Vader's robot arms glitched and he accidentally cut starliller's head off like "oops" lol

[@kyledonnelly8069]

His breathing machine still pumps as he's talking lol

[@TheJayTex]

Always loved the little emotion Vader shows when “A son.”

[@bl00by_]

Those cutscenes make me wanna have an entire series of starkiller with the same voice actor.

[@MrProp16]

Imagine if the cast of the game did the audiobook version. It'd be glorious

Force Unleashed was so good so good in fact that Id say it is the best star wars game ever created.

[@tjk-goix8513]

.... Jedi: Fallen Order

[@nencrows_4580]

@@tjk-goix8513 I agree that Jedi Fallen Order is a better crafted game, but in terms of enjoyment the force unleashed was better for me.

[@n1ghthood]

Probably one of the greatest video game scenes in my opinion ever

[@imaginarypath7867]

"I sense someone far more powerful nearby...where is your master! *Baby shows up

[@cowl6867]

I love the dichotomy of a sith raising one of the most powerful jedi in star wars to become a sith. Only to end up turning to the light and serving the jedi. Its like a punch to the face for Anakin

[@GuardianKyle]

0:26 "A son? Wait, YOU have a son!? This is wonderful, I have to tell everyone!"

[@Huseyinisiksel.4924]

For me the amazing thing is, even at that age Galen is so strong with the force that Vader mistakes him for a jedi master and suprised that it is just a kid.

[@nathanaelheil2818]

An interesting note is when Vader steps toward him and puts his hand out as an assurance that Galen was safe with him.
