I think we can all agree that Sam Witwer is perhaps one of the greatest Star Wars fans out there, and I can't help but imagine what sort of ideas he could come up with for a Star Wars project if he was ever given the opportunity.
Not just one of the greatest fans but one of the greatest minds for Star Wars. Genuinely.
I will die on this. Disney retcon Starkiller once the got star wars not beause the fan answer of " he is OP" But soly becaause he was a white male protagonist. He was one of the founders of the Rebel alliance and they even use his family crest as there symbol! Thats alot to retcon. You could argue they made ezra his replacement.
I can see this sadly..@@TheProjectVoid
“Your feelings for her…are not real…” -Darth Vader
*”THEY ARE REAL TO ME!”* -Starkiller
"WHERE IS SHE?!!!" Starkiller
@@Ravenfanatic5 Juno...
YOU WILL DIE WHERE YOU STAND!!!!!!! 😎
Absolute chills
had to yell out starkillers line just cuz yk
I clicked right away. Ive needed to know this for years
The game sounds so amazing! 🙏🏻
Same here
@@TheStupendousWave the more i listen the more upset i get that it didnt happen. I know exactly who i would've played with. A friend of mine who loves star wars (almost) as much as myself😂
We all did, , he's my boy
Getting ready for work 😴
“As long as she lives, I would always control you” such a powerful line
Completely killed the sense of accomplishment. Dang he's right.
ikr I love that it comes from a place of experience
Seeing a game focusing on both of them would have been a much needed game because Vader needs his own game honestly or a good game
I’m not sure about that or how would they pull that off
@@nickshug7671yeah that’s understandable but i honestly think he needs a game just about him but that’s just my opinion
Yes a game taking off right after he gets his robotic structure, he has to train himself again with those limitations but gains new force abilities in the dark side. Would be an awesome game
@@gngkf Heck they could even adapt the comics into a game. Hunting his first jedi (post suit), bleeding a crystal, meeting the Inquisitors, and facing down Jocastu Nu in the library. There is so much info to go off they could make 3 or 4 games off of.
I actually tried asking Sam Witwer about this when I saw him at a con last year in my town, and he said it would’ve been a great game. I loved the TFU I & II, and I think it would’ve been truly something to see the third one. It’s a real shame it fell through.
By far the greatest series of games ever in Star Wars history on consoles in terms of gameplay for me
Word
I will say that fallen order/survivor is right there with the force unleashed games. What makes the force unleashed games great is how OP you are lol
@@Lycan4647 I mean fallen order and survivor are good games but feeling the power of the force being strong hits way different. If they would have made cal kestes like starkiller in terms of power id be the greatest
I totally agree with you!
@TheprophetDJ The only problem with that is Cal would be able to take on Sidious which wouldn't make any sense lol. Even back when the Force unleashed games were Canon it didn't make sense. Still from a gameplay perspective it was awesome.
we werent just robbed my friends, we were betrayed and backstabed
We have been smeckledorfed!
Alas, just like the
original Starkiller.
And quite possibly,
Bamboozled
we were betrayed... forgotten.... abandon
*backstabbed
Something I just realized he locked Vader up in his old training room
Imagine the improvements and new additions the force system would have had
"You got 3 weeks to write a script for the sequel to the most successful star wars game of all time, development is going to be heavily rushed, and 1/3rd of the staff was let go because of management drama"
"This game was a flop, we're pulling the plug"
Morons
That happens alot unfortunately. That's one of the reasons most movie tie ins suck, they're rushed to come out at more or less the same time as the movie as rushed games are pretty much never good.
I really hope sam gets another title to work on.
I so wish this game came out. I remember well over a decade ago hearing the sad news there wouldn't be a third game. I bought Force Unleashed on PS2 in 2008. Starkiller is earily in my top 3 characters in Star Wars.
He should been a playable character in sw bf 2.
Not just soulcaliber 4
If Disney allowed this to resurface and be made it would be a major step in the right direction. Thank you Stupendous for bringing this information to light. The force unleashed was my favorite series growing up.
I am an introvert and barely leave comments as I am indifferent; thus, love your knowledge and analysis of Star Wars, and your voice and storytelling. I look forward to your daily videos. 👍
Wow, thank you!
Take the saber gameplay of the "Jedi" series(Fallen Order/Survivor), combine it with the Force effects of the Starkiller duo, and make it as lethal and affected as the "Jedi Knight" series. That would be so cool.
Man!!! Having a Story/game 2 players with Vader & Starkiller kicking around, messing things are what i signed for tondo with some friends
"The number 3 is unlucky for most Star Wars games"
Please don't let it be the case with Cal's story
It would be cool if they did that co-op idea with Cal Kestis and Galen Merrick. Cal is weaker but more tactical of a fighter and Starkiller is stronger but more unregulated which makes him open to attack.
It's also an unlucky number for valve games
They confirmed it's in development
IMO cal and Jedi survivor and the 1st one was cool but boring asf why we doing puzzles and all the other bs. The force unleashed is 10x better when it comes to gameplay and story. It’s just ridiculous that ppl over looked this game and didn’t learn anything from it.
I would've loved to see a next gen starkiller going up against the empire and the emperor. An open world star wars like fallen order or jedi survivor would've been sweet to experience. Personally, I'd would make a few changes to the 3rd installment.
1. Instead of dying in the end, make him escape with juno and go into exile with her. They have children and continue this powerful bloodline.
2. Have Starkiller canon so he can meet Cal Kestis in Jedi Survivor. Cere would tell a story about a dark apprentice who fought against vader and won. If cere can teach Cal about the light then Starkiller can teach him about the dark as he grows in power after cere death.
3. The main enemy would be Sidious however it would be a combination of Maul, Starkiller, with technical engineering of Grievous. Basically MaulKiller but a full. metallic frame of the sith stalker armor. The ultimate slayer to rule the empire.
Thats all i got but let me know what you think.
Cere and Cal are a bit older than Galen in age
@@Hello-bi1pm maybe yet galen would have aged up in the time of survivor. Honestly I need to know their age from survivor compared to the 1st force unleashed. Galen has had more experience with the dark than Cal
Respawn is kind of taking ideas from this game and just flipping it . If you’ve played Jedi survivor kestis starts falling towards the dark side in the end . Cere dies by Vader and cal slowly embraces the dark side which is setting up the 3rd game in the series.
Thank you for full-filling the rest of the knowledge about a forgotten sequel it held great value over my childhood I’m glad to of learned what a amazing game that would of been so special to the hearts of everyone
I mean only I guess speculation but that’s more knowledge then I would of ever learned
Vader and Starkiller teaming up would’ve been a good twist. It’s a shame we didn’t get to see the third game.
I still collect anything The Force Unleashed until this day. Bring back STARKILLER! 😊
Nah Disney would make Starkiller into another Rey
You know it's true
@@CHOSEN_SITH Yet even HE would've been better than REY!
The idiots at Disney canceled 1313 & force unleashed 3 smh they can’t do anything right
Very true and right 100
Boba Fett being a key character in both games would’ve cemented his greatness even further, as well as his scrapped clone wars arc where he killed Cad Bane. Shame what they did with The Book of Boba Fett
lol Disney did not cancel this game it was never even a game just an idea
never went into concept, Disney just bought Star Wars at the time, they just didn't simply get it off the ground
which is why i dislike star wars canon aka disney
Expanded Universe content is killing it🔥
I'm going to be completely honest This channel is the only thing keeping me interested in star wars... You guys are doing a phenomenal job Keep up the great work... Love the content
Disney should’ve picked up where Lucas Film left off. And continued to go through with Force Unleashed 3, Battlefront 3, 1313, and released 3D Attack Of The Clones. Thanks a lot Disney for doing this to us
He Should have been a playable character for Sw bf2. Besides just soulcaliber 4
Na they wanted a clean slate and not a mess that was the EU at the time
I think there was also supposed to be a “Darth Maul” project/game for mature audiences, and maybe the beautiful Darth Talon was going to be in it too
I loved the first game growing up and Starkiller has been one of my favorite Star Wars characters ever since. As much as I love him, I kind of hope they don't try to make a movie about him because I would hate to see it mess him up. I do think having the games and anything else about him that already exists being canon is a good idea.
"We were robbed of a peak game." If I had a nickel
Wow, I never knew that the sequel wasn't a success. I absolutely loved it.
It was fun, but incredibly short. It felt incomplete.
Compared to the first game the combat was rather limited and far too easy, I enjoyed it but the story I think is what fans despised.
Cloning the force is something fans despise, validly because it devalues the special nature of having the force naturally.
As well as the importance of concepts like fate and destiny or purpose and back then fans hated the concept of midichlorians and preferred the more religious concept established in original star wars.
@@boltinabottle6307i completely agree
It felt like half a game compared to the first
You’re a fucking idiot with no taste in games. The force unleashed 2 was garbage. God damn looser 🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻
Force unleashed 3 is by far the top of my list for starwars games I want. Next to battlefront 3
For TFU I would've loved for them to show Palpatine using essence transfer on a young clone body of himself while his original body is i n a comatose state. The more connections to Dark Empire, the better.
Perhaps even seeing Mara Jade and Hethrir as cameos.
What?!!! I wanted Force Unleashed 3 to happen. Man… we definitely got robbed.
This game absolutely needs to be made now.
What could Sidious of created that would be better than Vader, perhaps a clone of Anakin Skywalker, with A direct link to Sidious' mind, not Anakin, just an extension of Sidious, that might have been enough of a threat to have Vader and Starkiller together, and if Vader killed the clone, and Starkiller, he would have been welcomed back with open arms by his master. He would have passed a very dangerous test.
Oh what could've been, on the brighter side atleast Disney never got their hands on Force Unleashed.
Can you imagine Palapatine making a clone of himself to train as an apprentice just to have the clone follow the rule of 2 and kill Palapatine in his sleep the way he did Pleagus 😂😂
Interesting 🤔 idea 💡💡💡💡🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Do you mean....RAY????
@@isaiahgarcia2464 Rey wasn't a clone , she was a decent of Palpatine
That’s why Palpatine doesn’t sleep… why do you think he got all those wrinkles?
Palps would never have made a clone to train he'd never risk another of him running around as a possible rival. We see this in both legends and… canon. He created a clone(s) with the intention of using it as a new body. Much like how the Sith Emperor, Tenebrae/Vitiate/Valkorion, used host bodies.
would have been wild if the enemy palpatine created was a clone of vader, clone vader before the suit vs starkiller and vader, god i wish that game was made
One star wars game made it to 3, and it was rogue squadron. It was amazing.
The best way to see Starkiller's story to a conclusion is with either a novel, or a comic series.
The cinematics of both games were unreal for their time. Looked like a movie
I always wondered if Maulkiller the exclusive skin you got for preorder wasn’t a hint at enemy of a third game. After watching this video I think the epic battle or foe that would have taken a Vader Galon team up could have been Palpatine and Maulkiller. Clone with force abilities of Galon with Mauls unique mastery of Lightsabers and loyalty he showed before original Mauls failure and fall at hands of obi-wan.
it was these 2 games plus clone wars that really made me a star wars fan so this would’ve been a welcome addition
If this game had delivered on this idea, it would almost certainly have been phenomenal.
So sad but thank you for making this video. I loved the first two games and really hope a sand box Star Wars game gets made some day
I want atleast 1 year or MORE of game development. The second one was the shortest game I’ve ever played
4:49 wouldn’t work tho. Can’t forget the time that exact thing happened and Vader got so pissed he made himself dark side force limbs
These games put into my head what using the force actually SHOULD be in the movies. Of course you can take your time to slowly levitate things like yoda in the return of the Jedi, or have people use the force to push things like dooku in attack of the clones, but force unleashed shows how easy it should be to lift, push, crush, and control the force
I like the idea of the two of them being stuck on that planet the whole time. There would have been no way either of them would have let the other get away at that point. A scene where Vader goes all out and humbles Starkiler would have been sick.
I bet they would’ve revealed that Starkiller’s clone isn’t a clone. It’s the original, brought back the same way Vader brought him back in game 1. It’s through technology and the Dark Side that Vader manipulated him into believing he’s a clone. That would be a dope twist and it’s my headcanon.
0:40 It’s the real Starkiller, you don’t play as his clone in the second game
Where’d you hear that?
@ Playing through the game and trying to absorb all the extra content both in and out of game, while they try to keep it ambiguous as to what the truth is, it’s clear that Vader was actively trying to convince Starkiller he was just a clone to break him down and ensure Starkiller became his thrall once again.
@@adamc117 that wouldn't make sense, as the player has visions, but not the full memory of the original, plus the vision of vader killing him which he avoided.
This guy even made a video a couple weeks after a posted my original comment. Come on man
Force unleashed 1 is my favorite Star Wars game of all time, I used to try and speed run it
Honestly a new Force Unleashed Game could save the entire legacy of Star Wars. I'd buy a ps5 just to play it. SW has been at an all time low for the last few years now we need something to redeem years of let downs from Disney.
They need to make a Force Unleashed 3!
No. Not with the current people in charge. They’d make Starkiller a tranny or something.
We have been smeckledorfed!
According to Sam Witwer, there was going to be a moment where Vader is piecing himself back together with the force which would've been cool to see along with Vader showing Starkiller that he is truly the more powerful one... Saying a cold line to him similar to that of original dialogue intended for the very first Star Wars film. The Force Unleashed games are so much fun (along with DLC), and while II wasn't as good as the first (though II had some great moments), the series definitely deserved its final game for the conclusion.
my ideal ending for the force unleashed 3 would be a three way fight between sidious secret apprentice, vader, and starkiller. the fight would start with vader and starkiller trying to kill each other, imagine it like kratos vs zeus in GoW 3 when they fight in pandora's box chamber. aftar a long fight sidious secret apprentice would show up interupting the fight, opening the fight into a three way brawl of the most powerfull force user at that time, in this phase of the fight i imagine it like Jin vs Kazuya vs Heihachi in the tekken blood vengeance movie, plus its quite fitting, 3 generation of force user duke it out until there are only 1 winner. the first fight would like be like in lego where player 1 vs player 2 but in the three way fight player 1 and player 2 can choose to fight along side eachother again or just going free for all. the entire stage can be used to the players advantage with every rubble can be picked up or pushed using the force and every wall, pilar, trees, etc can be destroyed while fighting.
p.s. : i would like it if sidious secret apprentice is the original starkiller infused with sidious blood being revived with sith alchemy and to ensure its absolute obidience sidious would instal an upgraded version of the inhibitor chip that were once used on the clones army. so the ending choice would be : 1. would us, the clone, tried to recover the original starkiller or 2. would we just killed it because it was and abomination
I would still love to have Galen made canon. Though it seems with the Vader comics now, any hope of slipping him into Vader's lore is now gone. I always wanted him to interact with Ahsoka, and possibly even Cal Kestis. Maybe an Old Republic Story or something can squeeze him in? I don't know.
My main idea was that Vader would still take Galen in, as a secret apprentice, with the ultimate goal of killing Sidious. Yeah, yeah, I know the Inquisitors are a thing now, but their ultimate loyalty was to Palpatine, not Vader. Galen could be used to thin their numbers, while making it look like Rebels that got lucky. A few things would obviously be different, but it still could've worked. And kept with the tradition of Sith apprentices training people to help overthrow their masters.
So much fun potential, tossed by the wayside.
The Force Unleashed series is still one of the best Star Wars games to date. It’s still a sore spot a 3rd never game never even got a chance, gotta add that along with KOTOR 3 now
i still hope it will happen one day now that the old republic remake and the other legends re releases
I would have loved to see KOTOR 3 and a finished KOTOR 2 as well
These are better than fallen order and the sequel
at this point as long as disney or any of it's branches owns Star Wars i won't spend any money on anything Star Wars anyways
Long life pirating
@@daymenpollet4202 see that is the thing, Star Wars Outlaws for example left so much of a non-impression, it doesn't even feel like it's worth the time playing. I'm not even pirating that shit, I really have better stuff to play.
@@TheExecutorr they should hire people who care about good star wars content and are talented individuals but we got crap instead.
I do hope that they come out with a 3rd game. This is one of the very few Star Wars games that I really enjoyed.
By far way better than Jedi Order or Survivor. Disney figured the true Starkiller would annihalate Cal Kestis. So they canceled the third. Imagine if the third canceled game was brought to Playstation 5, the amazing graphics and decapitations of all limbs they would have. A robbed opportunity of a near perfect game that could've properly concluded Starkillers story.
If only we had a Terminator to send back in time to make Force Unleashed 3 happen.
Perhaps one of the biggest tragedies of our time was the discontinuation of The Force Unleashed. The idea for the 3rd installment seemed interesting. I truly loved TFU. I enjoy the novels. I miss the EU's continuity every day.
Star Wars fans love to complain and then wonder why things are canceled. Actions and reactions consequences
Pretty sure the game being rushed, a third of the staff being let go and poor reception due to such was the reason but continue to blame the fans lol
@@scrubzone4367 it’s called a opinion. And I’m sure that’s part of the reason, but anyone and everyone who is able to be objective knows the new fans are a huge problem, they don’t actually support Starwars products as far as capital, and yet they complain about everything. This is facts, I based my opinion on.
The fact that there was not a force unleashed three is One of the Worst of disney's crimes against star wars
I strongly disagree. I don't want those mongoloids at Disney touching my force unleashed or kotor. I'll happily wait 40years for a fan to purchase the rights.
Disney would have ruined it, so it might have been best just to leave it open
The reception of the second game notwithstanding, Disney acquiring the IP and gutting LucasArts played a bigger part. The uncomfortable truth is that at the outset and apex of Disney Star Wars, Starkiller was not "their type" for a protagonist. We'll leave it at that. The pendulum swung back somewhere more reasonable since, but not stating that component, the KK component if you will, behind TFU III being canned? It's a bit of an omission.
So the pendulum swings, now violently, now slowly; and every institution not only carries within it the seeds of its own dissolution, but prepares the way for its most hated rival.
William Ralph Inge
"Democracy and the Future" The Atlantic Monthly (March 1922)
To be blunt here: These far-left, activist Liberals like KK are promoting Marxist ideologies in an attempt to turn the US into a Communist society. According to Engels and Lenin, atheism is a critical component of Communism, and the application of atheism means a complete overthrow of all existing social conditions.
The current Liberal institution in academia, business, arts and entertainment and MSM have been preparing the way for their most hated rivals, Ultra-Orthodox Religious Conservative Fascists, to come to power.
Look up US Public Law One Zero Two dash One Four and the Jewish "Seven Laws of Noah", followed by "Seven Mountain Mandate/Dominion Theology".
The Liberals in the US were/are being used to bring Fascists to power, swinging the pendulum from the far-left to the far-right. In turn, the far-right fascist regime prepares the way for a One World Communist Order as the solution to fascism, capitalism and Judeo-Christianity.
The new threat, in my own opinion, should've been a clone of Anakin Skywalker in his prime.
Palpatine would never trust someone else than himself, so it would have been a clone of Palps, maybe mixed with some parts of Anakin and Galen Marek to make an ultimative omnipotent version of himself.
@@swissfreakyfact's,if he would of made a clone of
Anakin Skywalker,he would immediately been threatened
I had a feeling they screwed us out of a 3rd game, to this series. And it was super fun to play as well.
TFU3 with Starkiller & Vader w/
Co-op & Versus would have been Awesome! This could have been the 1 Great Disney/Starwars Success.
They learned their lesson cuz Cal's games aren't numbered so they don't have to worry about the curse of 3
I read the force unleashed 2 novel recently, made me appreciate force unleashed 2 so much more. I wish they at least released a novel to finish this great saga
Incoming sequel defenders saying that Starkiller is just a Gary Stu and Rey is not lol
sequel defenders are worst they don't know anything
Starkiller must race to save his unlikely comrade from catastrophic systems failure following the Fett onslaught! Embark on a mission of discovery where the Dark Lord of the Sith must me mechanically stripped in order to survive!
It's an absolute crime The Force Unleashed series isn't remastered to play on current consoles, I freaking LOVE The Force Unleashed, Aspyr games have done some banger awesome remasters of late, would absolutely love it if they Remastered this with all its DLC content
Galen Marik the true "chosen one" born off the force, so powerful he can go toe to toe with Sidious on Force ⚡.... Bruh as a toddler the force aura was so strong, that even Darth Vader was like no way this kid is Ur master.
Just a pity we will NEVER see a part 3 especially as Starkiller when Sidious deformed him and gave him a rare but superior armour suit that doesn't hinder but is more flexible and user friendly
Yet the eu stated that starkiller was weaker than someone like obi wan (still weird to me and could be wrong tho)
@@Connor-Skywalker they just hating cos their favourites got wiped out by Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader so they're looking for a scapegoat
@@MistaKliq Something like that I guess
@@Connor-Skywalker Starkiller/Galen Marik is so powerful yet haters want to hate cos their favourites look "weak" to Sidious and Vader, whereas Starkiller went toe to toe with Sidious on Force ⚡ that alone justifies thar Starkiller is OG
@@MistaKliq welcome to the human race 🤣
I absolutely love your content. Put your videos on in my AirPods while cleaning
If Disney made the force unleashed 3 it could probably give a lot of much needed popularity back to starwars
Like Star Wars Outlaws
@@chiquita683I don’t really like Star Wars outlaws honestly I haven’t seen that it’s given alot of good popularity
@@chiquita683 not saying it’s a bad game
I really wish we got a continuation of this... would've been awesome to see Galen as a father himself with Juno as his wife and their kids. A team up with Luke would have been epic against the Yuuzhan Vong.
Imagine if someone made a Stupendous Wave game? Basically a superhero with a lightsaber and the force and maybe some lovecraftian monsters. It would be WICKED
Love when cancellations happens, right when it's starting to get good
We are in the worst timeline possible, Star Wars sold to people who don't care about the franchise, canceling everything, and giving scraps of what could have been
Love that after years we finally got confirmation
Sounds 🔥
A clone containing the DNA of Sidious, Galen, and Vader.
Now that is a menace 💡💡💡😅👌🏿
As always Thank You 🙏🏻 for all the hard work you put into making these epic videos!!!!!!
My pleasure!
I wasn't too happy about the star killer clone, though I liked him using two lightsabers
I loved the forced unleashed games
I was absolutely disappointed that they never made the third game.
Starkiller and Vader vs Boba Fett sounds like a cakewalk. I’m confused on why this would’ve been something where those two had to run for their lives to live. 1 alone is scary with a lightsaber.. 2… child please!
We. Were. BRUTALLY. Robbed.
Thank you for this post, I've wondered why for years. This would have been a take my money now! game. I was hoping that in the Obi series they would have Starkiller
I'm not really into Star wars but the force unleashed is probably one of the most underrated video games of all times
Vader winning would be the dark side ending. The light side ending, which I would put at a slightly more difficult level, would be the original Galen Marek showing up as the clone was defeated.
Light side ending is always the more "canon" endings and the 3rd game was supposed to put the power scale back in place with the movies with Vader being the strongest. More than likely we would have seen Starkiller having to sacrifice himself again at the end of the 3rd game.
Awesome video Stupendous💯, this could've been something.
No doubt
I loved both force unleashed games. I always thought the second was kinda short, and it left so many questions. We need the full trilogy! Lol
Starkiller is my favorite character in Star Wars of all time. I always hope that we can get more of him in the future. Hopefully one day, I hope.
That's my head canon now, after TFU 2 this supposed 3rd game happened, Vader and Starkiller teamed up against a younger clone version of Sidious and was able to defeat him. Which ended in a showdown between Master and Apprentice where Darth Vader shows Starkiller that he was always holding back and was 10 steps ahead, and finally defeated Starkiller definitively.
I would have loved a force unleashed 3 i loved the first two games
