I agree with this on all points I enjoyed the YV villains way more than the Sith/Imp because it was new and unknown at the time. The Caedus build up fizzled, he turned out to be nothing more than another small time, failed sith.

They are running out of ideas. How many times can you fight an Imp or Sith that wants to take of the Galaxy? I still loved 99% of the novels. I think I have about 10 more to go and I would have read/listened to all of the adult novels in the EU

So you missed the many other threads on this topic? RECENT threads? REALLY RECENT? Reading is fundamental

She is the keeper of the light

So i take it you missed the million page thread about this exact topic that was floating around here for a month or two? /youth fale

Yes it was intentional to do that. And it just furthers proves Red Harvest is an atrocious book

There used to be a forum for that

He's roleplaying. Isnt it cute?

People had "seen" them, but either they didnt survive or they didnt know what they were seeing, like a flying rock. And jedi had visions of them, but not what they were So yeah, no one knew what they were with one exception: Palpatine

I disagree. Qui Gon dieing was integral in the Obi Wan story of the movie. All of a sudden, Obi Wan is thrust into the leader/master/father role in mere seconds. When Qui Gon died, Obi Wan became a Jedi Knight and took Anakin as his padawan. If Obi Wan was just another Jedi they stuck Anakin with, the whole story behind Obi Wan would be bland.

NJO was one of the best series ever written It's all about story story story An extra galactic race comes in, after many thousands of years of watching and probing (yes, KOTOR had them, Mace Windu foresaw them, and Sidius knew they were coming, you could say the whole Palpatine/empire thing was to prepare for the invasion), they come in and kick the crap out of everything they come across until the final endgame. And then the story builds up to jacen Solo's demise. So much win in those books. But then again, it doesnt have Starkiller or 1337 lightning so the kiddies think its dumb.

I agree. Nothing was as good as OT. OT had its qwerky moments, but it was better

Red Harvest- I couldnt make it through it. It was so silly lol I also suggest audiobooks. makes the looooong series better do to the voice acting and backround sounds, it really puts you into the scenes of the book.

Not sure how it was lacking in story. It was the story behind Vader and his rise to the dark side EP 2 and 3 especially

Think there was 4, Plageius was still alive, I think. Padawan/apprentice, same thing Still not the same when it comes to Sith vs Jedi "apprentice". He is essentially an apprentice until he kills his master. But not the way most think of an apprentice

Apprentice in the rule of two isnt the same as a Jedi apprentice Maul was a Dark Lord of the Sith, pretty bad azz in regards to fighting and force use.

Jedi Academy, Callista, Correllia Trilogies All are important for future series, like NJO and FOTJ, LOTF Some are kind of off kilter, but they all have important information for the future

Form 4 Oh and:

Pretty much. The story, and the purpose, of the movies was to fill in Vader's rise. They nailed it and the visuals were great, which doesnt hurt. Some dingle berry posted a YouTube video of his critique and now everyone is like "OMFUG! I have to be cool like this dude and jump on the hating bandwagon!!!""" Love stories always suck but such is life these days.

Koolaid

Prequels were great. Great story stop drinking the Koolaid

Most kids on this forum base all their SW knowledge of off the games. It is unfortunate, because there is such a great EU story out there to read. And this is why they all think Starkiller or Vitiate or Kyle Katarn were the baddest dewds ever!! Read some novels

This is the right forum to ask, no doubt

I'd even go back to the Correllian Trilogy, thats where all this started lol. They just had to kill center point station one way or another and have been trying for 10 years lol

Not just the Lost Tribe of the Sith Lumiya Vergere Darth Caedus Darth Krayt Emperor reborn even Dont think Kueller was a sith, just a dark Jedi If all your Star Wars knowledge is based off of video games, you are majorly missing out.
