DewyMossEmpire Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 (edited) So you're telling me that these tiny, insignificant, frail, weak, ugly, & badly designed insects can hunt & frighten Krayt Dragons? No. Just no. Their limbs could crack like a bug, their tiny jaws have even tinier fangs, & the largest one you ever see in-game is smaller than the paw of a dragon. Either remove these stupid creatures from the lore as dragon hunters, or change their design so they could be said hunters.

Or maybe the ones we see are the tiny versions because krayt dragons are so rare in game time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ones we see in game are praised as the ones which hunt the dragons, & even if there were larger ones, their silly design would still be improbable to take down a massive krayt dragon. Plus, even tho it is kind of irrelevant, from a scientific standpoint their insect-like design would collapse under the stress of its own weight as its frail limbs would not be able to support it & break under the unnatural physics.

They do look kinda silly, I admit. But after facing off the one, I kind of wondered if maybe they were a hive-mind type creature and used tactics to take down the dragons.

Not sure, from what I gathered from playing the game, the characters made it seem as if one of those puny little things would hunt down an entire dragon. Just awful & disgraceful to one of the greatest monsters in Star Wars lore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no recollection of any implication that they have Force Powers. The Force was used by many characters in the different storylines to combat or subdue the sand demons, but the creatures themselves do not have such powers, nor are they described to have such powers in their codex entry.

Then I am not sure why they would be a part of an ancient Jedi tradition as stated in the Sith Warrior story. Maybe not Force Powers like Lightning, but yeah, grasping at straws, even though I agree they look kind of silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only tradition was bathing in its blood, as Jaesa did & as the Sith Warrior does in the story. No Force power there, just weird desert stuff. All speculation aside, at least we are in concurrence that their design is silly & feeble compared to that of a dragon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DewyMossEmpire Posted October 23, 2014 Author Share Posted October 23, 2014 If they are not to be redesigned, it would be far more cost-effective & hasty to simply remove their codex entries as krayt hunters. In fact I'd much rather see that done......Krayts have always been held up as the greatest predator, & it is for shame that they could be bested by something as lame as a little sand demon.

cyrusramsey Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 I was under the impression that the codex entry only made mention of stories and hearsay (from jawas..?), which seems acceptable enough to me. Myths and legends don't equal history and fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DewyMossEmpire Posted October 23, 2014 Author Share Posted October 23, 2014 I suppose that's true. Though there may be a character in the Warrior storyline who says that they could've hunted dragons. Either way, there's no way I could ever believe something as silly or implausible as that. I'd like to see some kind of change to this, preferably removing their alleged capabilities as being dragon hunters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DewyMossEmpire Posted October 23, 2014 Author Share Posted October 23, 2014 Ohhh, another thing! Those two-dimensional creatures that fly around across the skyboxes of Tatooine; I am sure you guys have noticed them before. They can also be seen on Taris. If you look carefully you can see their little claws & heads, & those obnoxious morphing triangle bits are their wings. One of the best aspects of KOTOR was all of the ships that could be seen flying across the skies, even if only a few of them. Tatooine, Manaan, Dantooine & so forth; rather than having the little 2D animals it would be really neat to see more of those ships. It just adds a level of immersion & nostalgia to the planets.
