Starkiller is a great character and I don't think any mainstream appearance will ever do him justice.
That is why I keep engaging these guys and their "ideas".
Same for Maul.
Read my comments, just maybe you'll like these.
Maybe, then, you do not.
Yeah fr
Why let them ruin a character that they won't do justice?
Disney is known for that we already seen it.....
Starkiller gonna get nerfed/killed by Disney
Galen Marek, Starkiller, Lord Starkiller and Dark Starkiller are always a joy to have around. Anything that gives Sam Witwer more room to flex his voice acting
Can you imagine:Darth Vader(Without A suit) and Galen Marek(original) as the Sith master and apprentice.
They would be the most powerful beings in the universe
I personally think Starkiller had to have the potential comparable to Sidious in order to even survive fighting him, even if it was briefer than the game made it seem. Starkiller seems to be far more skilled with force lightning, and under Sidious's guidance, probably could have become even more skilled using force lightning. Now, it was probably also a manipulation tactic, because we do see Palpatine, especially in Force Unleashed is very manipulative to the point he doesn't even hide the fact that his apprentices are just pawns to him.
If anakin didn’t get injured, he’d be 10x stronger than sidious.
@@WhoTao-nm1uw Lucas said it was closer to 2x as strong
The reason he's so powerful was because that the only thing they could think of to make him interesting. Which just makes him that much more boring to real starwars fans
@@cameronfreeman8495 more or less the creators basically said they wanted a character that was super powerful i think they wanted to do a Vader game but the studio wouldn’t allow it so they went with Starkiller. I don’t remember how accurate that is through cause it was years ago I read about it.
@@dragonlord1689 yes but GM Luke was probably looking at a couple hundred times stronger than sideous and he was on par with anakins full potential so that statement my not be entirely true
I think a prime reason he had such raw potential may be because both his parents were jedi, most people tend to forget that.
Darth Sidious got lucky in the final boss fight. If we were allowed to go all out, both Sith would be dead
Yep!!!!
Yeah but that's back when they actually still respected the Star wars lore.
@@curbnug3487 true
Yeh, that plot armour be thick
Hardly. Starkiller is fodder to Sidious
In my opinion starkiller was an opposite to Skywalker. Starkiller A man in the dark endlessly drawn to the light and fighting to keep in the dark until he ultimately choses that path. Skywalker having an early link to darkness that was endlessly groomed by Sidious and the Jedi unintentionally while he struggled to keep in the light ultimately chosing to fall thinking it's what's right.
He's a pointless character. The only way to make him interesting was to make him over powered
@@cameronfreeman8495 I completely disagree with you
Which skywalker that's so vague theres like 30 Skywalkers at least
@@Garretty66 we may not like to hear it but hes right
@@cameronfreeman8495 Your objectively incorrect
Starkiller's strength was that he had no limits. Everything he did was always 100%, and he was trained to have the stamina to handle this. Strength in the force comes from a combination of potential, training, and how heavily and often it's used, and Starkiller had a massive advantage in the last category. Despite not necessarily having the same natural potential as is peers, his quirk meant his potency would grow faster and unendingly. In short, I think Sidious was implying that Starkiller was a prodigy like himself and could've been a worthy hier.
If we go with triea's interpretation then galen luke leia were the forces intention at balance. Any of the 3 were the strongest chance the force had at killing Palpatine. Galen was the strongest, Leia was the smartest, and Luke had the most heart. Galen chose to give up his life, Leia didn't choose the force, and Luke choose his father.
Galen luke and Leia had the same raw force power and potential but starkiller didn't have the acknowledged and proper training
He actually did get some of that from Vader but just not the parts that would be merciful just what he needed to destroy people who did have such training
@@alsimmonshellspawn6021 true-ish. He was a jedi for like two or 3 days before confronting Vader.
I mean, if you remember, in the DLC for the bad ending, Starkiller lost the majority of his body parts meaning he lost a huge amount of his potential and his connection to the force was most likely severely damaged (maybe even more so than vader) he still somehow grew strong enough to defeat Obi-wan and his force ghost and also defeated Luke who was corrupted by the dark side. So imagine if he never lost any of his body parts. His potential would be amazing
I wish we got at least one more chapter of DLC to show Starkiller and the corrupted Luke take on Sidious.
Me too, dude. Just to complete the series and once they take out Sidious together Luke would kill Galen and take the throne
@@lordnixon7512 Starkiller stood above the still smoldering remains of his former master as his own apprentice slowly approached from behind, lightsaber ready to strike.
Luke: And so the learner becomes the master.
Strakiller: Indeed...
In a flash, Starkiller spun around, blocking Luke's attack before sending him flying with a well placed force push.
Starkiller: ...for such is the way of the Sith.
Luke quickly recovered and readied his weapon once again. The two Sith Lords glared at each other for a few moments before charging at each other. And just before they connect, the screen fades to black.
@@Warrior-Of-Virtue that’s good
@@Warrior-Of-Virtue luke will grow more powerful as a sith since he has more potential than starkiller
Exactly would be so cool
he's an interesting character because of his power, skill, struggle, and the wisdom he has gained from his experiences.
he is a Je'daii. the Je'daii of old used the Force without restriction, abilities that the Jedi and Sith claimed that only they could use many years later, were accessible to the Je'daii. this power had to be earned, however. the various experiences they had, reflecting on said experiences would bring them wisdom, that wisdom becoming a whetstone for their power.
Galen "Starkiller" Marek, and Luke Skywalker became Je'daii because of these things.
Well said, both are actually perfectly balanced in the Force
I played this game too, many years ago on PS2! 🎮👏😁
Selecting Option B - Galen Mareks compassion was in the end his down fall -
He may have killed Vader, but wasn't willing to kill his jedi friend and that sealed his fate.
In Sidious's eyes he failed this ultimate test to fully pledge 1s self to the darkness
Neither Vader, Maul nor Dooku would've have failed this ultimate test.
Very keen to see more from GM. The actor has matured and would be very welcome on the screen. This story would BANK. "Do it"
I always find it funny when people say he’s over powered. Like powerful characters, outside the chosen one, don’t exist. Yoda, Windu, Dooku, all incredibly powerful characters that could have posed a threat or challenge to Palpatine. What’s so unbelievable with Galen being one of those characters?
Starkiller has a lot of different abilities, they may not be as strong as vaders skills or sidious skills but has more skills to use in a battle and he is far younger and without injury or harm at one point. Vader is stronger and can do 15 different things but starkiller can do 25 different things and is not hindered by past defeats and true loss.
Maybe but I believe he is just as strong if not a bit more. But I really enjoyed playing him.
Its because starkiller is a master of both
Dark and light sides
He his the perfect balance
And he been fighting and training his whole life
Raw Talent+ one of the strongest jedi trachers + hard ass traning= STARKILLER
Loved who Starkiller became and although he dead he went all out fighting and got complimented that he was a threat to sidious
Keep them coming bro. Love listening to your stuff.
In terms of power, maybe. But definitely not in terms of intelligence. There Sidious is and always will be unmatched.
Which reminds me? We're sure that the original Starkiller(Galen Merik) is dead right?
No, we're not. He just might have been the "Clone" from the second game. Sidious could have easily done something to fake his death, hide him somewhere, and insert him as a "Clone" to trick/punish Vader for his Continued Betrayal.
Fun Fact: Normal starkiller was actually still alive in tfu 2. The one we play as in the 2nd game was him. The novel heavily implies it and the game implies it too but not as well as the novel. It makes more sense he was the og starkiller and vader was calling him a clone to try and break his spirit to control him.
Wait.. Then how'd they bring him back?
I don't think that Sidious was being truthful after all he told Anakin that he would be bale to save his wife. He made him think he already had the answer but in fact he didn't. The other word is potential maybe he had the potential if trained. If he would have killed Vader maybe.
Okay but when he mentioned that out load to Galen/SK/Sith Stalker in that alternate darkside ending there was no need to lie at that point it is not like he was using Juno or his family against him in that line all he said was that he had such promise defiantly much greater then Suited Anakin/Vader did which few did it is just like how when Sidious said Darth Vader would become more powerful then Yoda And himself he clearly meant in force power and potential before the Mustafar hang ups Galen as a child was noted by Vader to be currently more powerful then his much older father much more powerful even so if that is how powerful Galen was as a child even enough to snatch with telekenesis Vaders lightsaber out of his grip which had never been done before until that point just imagine what he would of been like as he grew and gained his full potential plus Sidious wanted Galen to kill Vader once Vader was beaten there just like he wanted Anakin to do to Dooku after being bested and what he wanted Luke to do to Vader once gaining the victory lap over his Father so clearly Galen had the same midichlorian count as Sidious it was heavily implied if not outright stated yeah.
Star Killer doesn't even compare to Vitiate, why would anyone say he is to overpowered and boring?
One could say Darth Sidious was just mocking him, lying that Starkiller could become more powerful in the future and overthrow The Emperor himself. Imagine that level of manipulation from Sidious, it is truly masterful, just as it was with Vader, make him hate himself for what he did or could have done, but he failed to do so.
Thank you for sharing
yes it was stated multiple times,that starkiller had the potential to become as powerfull as sidious or even better,but sidious knew he wasnt consumed by the darkside like vader,and wanted a new servant who counld replace vader.
Great video! Yes, without any doubt in my mind, Sidious was telling Starkiller the truth. You can HEAR the utter disappointment in the Sith Lord's voice when he says, "You had...such promise." as well as, "But now...", turning his head in disgust. The Emperor RARELY lies. He construes the truth sometimes, but after ROTS, he never really outright lies. He's just 5 steps ahead of everyone. Sidious HAD to sense the raw Force power that Starkiller displayed. Once he found out Vader was harboring a secret apprentice, I think that's when he decided that he would have them fight in the throne room (like Dooku and Anakin in ROTS, or Luke and Darth Vader in ROTJ) and see if Starkiller would make a suitable apprentice capable of defeating his former master.
I think Sidious was just being a dick to Galen in the Dark Side ending. Mocking him for standing up to him and getting his ass handed to him, his allies crushed before his eyes and his love literally brought crashing down on him. Did Sidious feel anything approaching respect for him? No. He was never a man to give compliments lightly, and here he just seemed to be baiting him, rubbing in just how much he'd lost.
Let’s admit it, sidious just has bad luck finding massively strong apprentices that don’t get themselves severely injured or killed.
If Starkiller was his equal, imagine a full potential Anakin!
Full potential anakin is techniquely The Father himself
Needs his own non-canon film as lord Starkiller hunting a Jedi or multiple Padawans Friday the 13th or predator style. All Disney needs to do is make it part of a “Legends Cinematic Universe”
I will always love videos where they examine the in universe reasons as to why Starkiller is so strong. Like we all know why, gameplay mechanics and looking cool, but trying to explain it using lore facts is always fun lol
"average force user"
Bro must've forgot the scene where vader sensed a master in a child
I wouldn't say he was merely average considering both of his parents were Jedi.
I could only imagine a sect of Force users that borrowed more from the Bene Gesserit playback by doing a breeding program.
Who thought Galen uninteresting?
I hope for the love of god that they don't bring him back anymore
Disney gonna Ruin/nerf him hard
And change/make him different
What would it matter if they bring him back and his a totally different character?
Makes no sense
They know he is popular and everyone loves him ! So they gonna milk that hard
Within Legends Galen had the same potential as Sidious as noted by that alternate ending when Sids said he could of been his equal plus his want for Galen to replace Suited Vader yeah.
I have one question what would happen if star killer allied with Darth Sidious after killing Vader? would he be more powerful then he is now? Or would he still have the same abilities?
He could have been but and this is a big but remember he also says just that”could have been”just like darth Vader star killer ultimately was a tool once a Sith stalker as he like darth Vader had lost his full power also the emperor is looking for immortality so it’s a safe no after he was a Sith stalker at least.
But even if Galen had never gotten badly injured and put in that suit Luke And Or Leia would of been found out to have the same force potency as there pre busted up Father so likely would of had Galen replaced by one or both of them anyways at some point that is if neither turn against each other before that could happen yeah
Did he want to replace him because he was actually weaker or was he worried starkiller might one day try to get revenge on him?
In the alternate ending it was quite clear that the sith stalker aka suited Galen/SK much like suited Anakin/Vader lost the potential to be a worthy successor concerning Anakin/Vader with the injuries and equal and maybe successor with out of shape Galen/SK yeah.
I think part of it depends on the meaning of being Sidious’ equal. Could Starkiller have rivaled him in raw combat power? I think so. But in other aspects of the force and most importantly overall intelligence, I’m not sure he could ever match Sidious.
True even if he got the same raw power potential Sidious clearly would still have vastly more knowledge, mastery, variety, and experience with the force still yeah.
That, "overpowered" narrative is such bullshit. The only reason that started was because of the Sith Seeker move. If you compare all the things Galen has done in the force and compare it to ALL the things Sidious, Vader, Yoda, Mace, and countless ancient Jedi/Sith have done, he is no more overpowered than they are.
He's a Mary Sue, obviously. "So in this game you're a Sith, who like knows all the powers ever, and can pull a Destroyer out of the sky with the Force."
Many characters where able to do that in Legends not just in video games either and not just Galen Merek/Starkiller/Sith Stalker yeah.
I don't think Sidious has ever considered anyone his actual equal. It's all manipulation tactics.
Awesome vid 🗡
They need to make a show or movie about Star Killer, with the same actor . As he is passionate and knowledgeable, much like Henry Cavil .
Please do a video on all the star wars materials
I loved Starkiller in my teens. Still do. I wish SO BAD they’d make a sequel to this game. Or at least remake it for modern consoles.
I’m tired of people saying they’ll mess him up! Shoot get some black directors/writers then 🤷🏽♂️💯🎯 oh & make Galen marek black & scrap the cloning ish lol
Where are these game clips from? I've played both unleashed games and haven't seen most of these clips.
I'm inclined to think Palpatine's words were a ruse, and intended to get Galen to kill Vader and take his place as a strong hand but not a true successor. Another video you did discussing why Galen was so powerful talked a fair bit about his ability likely being due to a lack of idealistic dogma in any direction. He was simply a weapon, strong with the living force, and under the tutelage of someone who only ever taught him to fight and kill with it. No limitations, no moral compass, Vader pointed, Galen killed.
Palpatine may have been impressed by Galen's power, but I don't think he'd truly be interested in handing the empire to another attack dog. I think he would have treated Starkiller the same way he ultimately regarded Darth Maul.
We don't know that he was less powerful than Anakin for Certain, only that George would never have let it be said. The Only Reason Luke was Officially Stated to be More Powerful was that George Wanted it.
Dude luke Skywalker trained for many years is a Skywalker he learned from yoda obi wan palpatine and exar kun luke possessed more acknowledged of the force than vader and starkiller
I've always been a bit iffy on Starkiller. On the one hand, watching him beer can-crush walkers, and TIE fighters, with the Force, or pull down literally a Star Destroyer, or channel his power through the main gun of a capital ship is amazing. Watching him toss Stormtroopers into the air, and assuming that they must have nounced off of a ship's view port, because they never came back down, is funny, but then watching him fight Vader, and seeing the Sith Lord's health chip off by the PIXEL, is insulting. I've never totally understood the nuances of Force combat between two powerful practitioners; what the rules are for what works, and what flops, that makes just falling back on the classic lightsaber the easier plan, but it just seems that if Galen could move the Devastator, while Yoda DID slightly struggle to move a fighter, it would seem that neither the Emperor, nor Vader, should have been able to put up such a protective mantle as it would take to thwart the Force Unleashed. When would either have ever expected it, nor had the time to then practice for it? I get that, in part, it's a game, and the end needs to be dramatic; these are iconic characters, so it will take more than the stray glance of a saber, or jolt of Force lightning, to best them, even though on the films, they are both totally mortal, but it just usually got annoying, and even FELT like a video game. I love the Expanded Universe, but there were definitely moments when I felt that theyvwanted it to be like D&D, and each new weird Force tradition was just trying to be it's own flavor of Wizard, turning invisible, phasing through walls, etc.; things I don't believe even Luke, or Vader, could usually have done, so this, while it made foe a great pair of games, usually felt, too me, too much like video games, and it was weird the sheet magnitude of things Starkiller could seemingly do, and yet how little it worried two Sith who couldn't hope to duplicate it, without inventing a silly dyad, or something.
I think Palpatine might have believed Galen Marek COULD be those things, bit I still think, especially way back then, before the Disney times, that he never intended to die, or fork over power, so NO successor was needed. He always planned to have powerful pawns, but to remain the king, above them. Anything he said was a goad; a jab, or a misdirect, to get out of him what the Emperor wanted.
Starkiller is a power fantasy, he just can’t be canon. For some of the reasons you pointed out and many others. Outside of the movies, in legends, EU, Kenobi etc Vader and Palpatine are capable of everything Starkiller does and more. But in the movies they are little more than old men with political power and dangerous parlor tricks. This has been attempted to be explained away many times but I think the truth is George never thought of the force as we think of it today, levitation,telekenis, choking, lightning and physical feats were pretty much all that came from mastery of the force.
And yes Palpatine had no intention of actually finding or training somebody stronger than him, he would kill anyone that could actually became more powerful than him. He would not allow a true potential rival to exist. He had no intention of carrying on the rule of 2 after he attained power either.
Anything he said to the contrary was just a lie, a gaslight or manipulation to some end.
In Legends Palpatines thoughts he truly wanted people like Pre Suited Anakin/Vader to surpass him since he had the potential too then Galen came along who had equal potential to Sidious and higher then Suited Anakin/Vader which not many had then a even bigger prize years later caught his attention in Luke And Leia who have the same force potentials as there pre battered and shattered Daddy yeah.
I feel like, if Starkiller had the pure evil inside him that Palpatine did, he'd have easily toppled him and started an entirely new era.
But alas, he was just an assassin whose power wasn't held back by ideologies like the Jedi or Sith are controlled by.
So, basically, Dark Jedi.
There were equals
Because they're both voiced by Sam Witwer
I’ve said it a million times, Starkiller can never be canon. He is way too OP, the entire franchise is a power fantasy. Besides if he did show up in live action it would be a complete disappointment if anyone stood even the remotest of chances against him, he’s absolutely busted both with his force powers and intuition and his saber play.
As a toddler he force pulled vaders lightsaber while he was in the middle of a massacre, he was swimming in the dark side and yet with all his power his weapon was ripped away by a child. Obviously once Vader realized the childs potential his force barriers were redoubled, but the power on display in that moment that began everything he is still busted.
I’ve actually written a Star Wars story where the main character is actually a canon version of star killer but a little different and Stupendous Wave if you’d like to learn more I would love to chat with you about it
**Inquisitor Jerec enters the chat**
I find his a very interesting story could easily be a famous series for disney te explore with a fitting end that does not interfere with the canon story
Making him Rey’s father would immediately fix the sequel trilogy and better explaining why she was so OP out of the box.
Starkiller was so powerful simply because its literally Sam Witwer
no. i've commented in the past of my defence of Galen but in this instance i do not think he could have. simply put Galen was a warrior, not a sith. while he could well have surpassed (and arguably did) Sidious combatively he lacked the coldness to manipulate people to the level that the emperor did. beyond that he had a "pure" darkside connection. he was more of a jedi that used the dark side than a true dark lord. his moral compass, while it had been actively suppressed by vader, had always been present. his compassion and respect for Proxy shows this. due to this moral draw towards the light side principles he could NEVER have achieved the same level of power and mastery of the force as sidious. in fact the only reason he uses the dark side at all is because of the fact he hasn't been taught otherwise. its all he knows. if you put a boxer in a martial arts match they would only have their boxing skills to lean on. they may be able to beat their opponent but they would still be out classed and lack the skills to maintain their place. Galen is a Dark Jedi. he is the dark side counterpart to Ashoka. where she has learned to hear and follow her emotions without letting them take over Galen has learned to channel them to his advantage. She flirts with the dark side while never falling (which i believe she is physically incapable of actually tapping into the dark side since The Daughter resurrected her) while Galen is too acustomed to the spontanious nature of the dark side and so could never truely dwell in the light. they are physically close to being "grey jedi" as can be from their respective alignments.
so no. Galen is fundimentally too "Good" to ever surpass Sidious' power in the force.
Background music please. Somebody? Anybody.
Really interested what would happen in the star wars universe if we could see how would things go if both independent stories if Star Killer and Vader in different stories lived up to their massive potential. If they actually had become Sideous “equals” or even stronger.
…and palpatine’s thoughts on both. If they had.
Starkiller is what we need to make star wars interesting again
Sidious once told vader that The Galaxy was built on lies, so it's hard to say if he ment what he said about starkiller.
Starkiller is not overpowered. I think Star Wars needs to embrace the idea of having more Uber powerful force users who's last names aren't Skywalker or Palpatine.
Considering that Sidious had no intention of ever letting anyone succeed him, it was likely just manipulation
There is one thing I absolutely don't understand. Why did Starkiller follow the instructions of Sidious after he almost killed him and after that he transformed him to a machine?
I personally don't think this is the case,as while Starkiller was supremely powerful in the Force and it's combative abilities I believe personally that has to do with the fact he was raised from a small child to be a Sith Warrior by Vader this is why he's skilled enough to hold his own against Vader and Palpatine but struggled to do something as simple as clairvoyance in the force or using a mind trick as shown in the force unleashed when he attempted to do a mind trick on a imperial officer while rescuing Leia for Bail,so I firmly believe Palpatine was just putting salt on the wound when he said that as a means to get under Darth Starkiller's skin
Vastly uninteresting? Anyone who thinks that should be ignored because they are simply wrong
What? Galen was never considered "average" he was literally a toddler capable of breaking vaders force shield and disarming him. Whether Vader was taking notice of him is irrevelvant, there are few Jedi knights who would have been capable of doing that in their prime.
Lmao I love how much people accepted galen marek being power cliffed to sidious levels when he literally only contended with 2 shitty Jedi masters, but lose their minds watching obi wan beat an injured version of Anakin Skywalker after he already fodderized him in canon without. Love the SW fandom. This is the part where people say but he was indirectly trained by Darth Vader (he trains with a robot 🥱) yet still can't understand obi wan directly trained Anakin in 1000s of hours of direct sparring sessions and fighting an entire war
In my opinion, I think that star killer WAS his equal since in the good ending, he bested sidious. However, in the bad ending, he’s literally in the same situation as Vader. Broken.
I really want Galen brought into cannon but I want ALL of his insane power on display as often as it should be. I’d LOVE to see a live action series that follows the games but also fills in some gaps in his story. I want to see Vader train him etc. they could always go alternate universe like halo even though I think it’s trash for halo I think it could work in the star wars universe.
the devs have already confirmed that star killer was only as powerful as old man kenobi, he was only made that insanely strong for the games
Starkiller had the raw force power and potential but he didn't have the acknowledged in star wars acknowledged is power and true sith don't Shae it, exar kun great so powerful because he absorbed the acknowledged of naga sadow freedon nadd the jedi masters he killed ect
He had to tell him he could be an equal but still wouldn’t say he was stronger. I believe he was but with less experience
Bro this man has 2000 more midichlorians than fucking palpatine
Palpatine=20000
Starkiller=22000
Wait, I thought Prunepatine had no intention of letting anyone to succeed him and had intended to become immortal...
Vader was too weak not because he was weak, but because he required pain and anger to remain strong, and this makes him not leader material. You can see his bad leadership skills when he strangles imperial officers.
So this explains why starkiller was so strong and could ragdoll Vader around because he was up to vaders master’s level.
These games were dope. It sucks they had to cut the second one short. Jedi fallen order is a good looking game graphics wise but childish characters and uninspiring force powers don't compare imo. Playing as Vader choking wookies and hunting Jedi was satisfying but unfortunately short. Wish we could get a Vader game or an op force powered force user for next gen soon
Vader didn't possess many abilities doe to him being half machine yeah Kal kesta is too weak and doesn't have enough abilities and skills
Eh, I wouldn't really think too much unto it. Starkiller Is powerful purely from a gameplay perspective, so it wouldn't be boring, and he's not Canon.
Yes I think he was on the same power level
Idc what nobody say , starkiller my favorite Star Wars character
I think Starkiller could have bested Sidious if trained correctly/more, but my question is why is he unpopular? For the first time we saw the power of the force and not just some dirty wizard magic tricks. Blah blah, read the books, blah blah…I don’t care. I want to see power, not imagine it. We never saw anyone pull a cruiser down into the dirt. We never saw a force repulse disintegrate an entire squad in the blink of an eye. He was tortured and abused his entire life and pushed to the limits of his mortal shell, and through that he ascended. Just thinking about that makes me hate Rey a little more. He earned his power, he wasn’t given it by a tyrant that has crapped on this property that is currently on life support by fans that hold the franchise higher than anything. Am I one of those fans? No, but I am fascinated by the fans ability to love something so much. OP? Maybe, but he earned it and those abilities drew me closer to being one of those fans just like when I played KOTOR 1&2. Vader, Revan, and Starkiller were extremely complicated and tragic characters and those are characters I can get attached to.
It’s hard to say but Star Wars fans can believe whatever they want about what’s true and what isn’t true us Star Wars fans don’t have to agree on everything about Star Wars
Starkiller could overcome both Fart Shittous as "VAnakider".
With ease.
He got erased for the same idiotic reason as the Borg were murdered: "the sake of the story", and nothing else.
Despicable in every way.
What made Starkiller so powerful?
Answered by me a hundred times now:
Force Attunement.
There.
No need to stumble over topics already answered.
OMG, Starkiller could wipe his arse with "VAnakider" full power, Fart Shittious in last form (tied to the World Machine that powered him in the last film), Luke and his alter evil Luke simultaeously.
First TFU, both Vader and Fart Shittious had SERIOUS issues killing Marek.
Well, Vader failed miserably, I had worse fights in that game with regular opponents.
I took out Vader in less than 20 seconds.
Farth Palpafail would have been neutered with a hammer, if Marek had one, but nooooo:
Fart Foolpatine had to cheat, programmed, there was no alternative option to erase dickface.
And so, Marek had to die, "for the sake of the story".
The makers pulled a "Borg" on Marek.
The same fuckin' happening ALL-OVER in the Sequel.
But beyond anything it was proven, seeing how Marek and Starkiller erased entire LEGIONS of enemies, and not break a sweat.
Come on, when will you get real for a second, @The_Stupendous_Wave?
Even Marek just MIGHT have been an equal for Abeloth.
THAT DAMN STRONG was he.
Come on:
He was The Force Unleashed, no one ever had these powers afore, this guy was THE GUY.
Marek, the original, already virtually was the Force.
What he did, unseen afore.
He had the potential, literally, to move solar systems, if he focused.
This guy was "The Force Superman", with as only possible Kryptonite Abeloth.
POSSIBLE!!!! Kryptonite.
Stop being so frakkin Disney.
It's horrendous.
"What if it was a game?"
Yeah yeah, the whole SW shit is a bloody, horrendously erroneous, crashing game.
Each "update" on a bad, rotten base (the first three movies made), causing more destruction per update.
Why a rotten base?
Because all lore already established in these being ignored, corrupted, falsified, as they went along.
TPM:
Maul was VASTLY superior to Vader.
Only got killed of, and HOW, for the fuckin' sake of the story?
Fuck that.
Not like that.
Had him given a heart attack, or a planet crashing into his head, that I could accept, but a miserable Padafuck halving a Battle Master?
Nuh-huuh.
Nevah.
My GOD what an insult to Maul.
And it keeps going on like this, the whole damn time.
Sad.
Truly, truly sad.
And stop asking for "Your thoughts on the matter, my friends", you ignore it, always.
Have not seen ONE reply from you.
Not even on Twitter.
Some friend one is.
Where the hell were these scenes in the Force Unleashed games?? I've played both games multiple times already. Non of that was in the games. Must be the DLCs. You must have had to pay even more to see these stories playing out. I bought both games straight out when they were released but i didn't pay for bundles or special additions. I probably just answered my own questions🤦🤷
I think starkiller is cool and also grew up with the games
interesting
Galen Marek wasn't average AT ALL! He was as powerful as Sidious... well he had the potential
Another reason why I don't want Starkiller canonized.
U left the scream out of the vid😢
In the lucasverse he is the founder of the rebel alliance js
Naw Star Killer would have become more powerful then both Darth Vader and Lord Sideous together especially if he went looking for more knowledge in both sides of the force and peacefully master both he would have been beastly indeed and uber OP......lol
Let's face it guys,Darth sideous ain't gonna hand over his throne,galaxy and title as sith emperor until his death.😑
I mean who would even in real life?.I mean sure he says that his successor would inherit his empire,etc but only in name as most likely sideous puppets him around in the dark.
Omg!!! Hav u ever thout that theis words are not true but a part of what keeps them obidient?? He sayed it to vader, starkiller and most other players that have faced him in a pc-game...
