eh, one things eve is good at is making numbers and organization count more than total time played and wealth
I dunno really, I mean the trailer makes it look exciting, but isn't most of the content in Eve player driven? So if you are taking over a base when no one is online it would be just turrets and blowing shit up?
Also is eve really big enough to have a battle of that scale all the time/at all?
Odds are you will not be able to attack any planet whenever you feel like it, otherwise everything would change hands every time anyone went to sleep.
Isn't that how Goonswarm rolled?
Goonswarm grew really fast by EVE standards, but it's also a game where some ships can take like, a month of real time to build.
You know, I'm starting to feel the systematic murder of all force users ever might just be an excellent idea.
Cause they're either really irritating and self-righteous twats who think they should be in charge by virtue of being "wiser" or evil and power-hungry monsters.
This is kind of what I liked about the Dragon Age universe with their magic users. Whether they're good or bad, humanity is freaked and they're super ready to just off the whole lot of them, good or bad, the second it looks like they're about to go off reservation.
Not to mention that by default there is always some Sith artifact or Sith crypt that's lain undiscovered for millenia that corrupts someone and restarts the cult of the sith again in the star wars universe.
You'd think they'd try to systematically seek out and destroy all that crap. Then educate their Jedi about the Sith and what they've done. If someone seems to think they can check out Sith stuff and not get corrupted you take them behind the shed and kill them before they become too powerful to stop.
Galaxy is a BIG place.
But yeah.
The empire would be the best if they just offed the emperor and vader, then went hunting for jedi and sith

But how do you send Jedi out to destroy that stuff without risking them being corrupted by it?
In fact, I'd guess that is a common thing in the EU.
You.. you get the normal people to go do it.
Have a force user go to various planets to use sense force or whatnot and find possible locations of the artifacts and crypts, then the normals go down. Find it, destroy it, never let the force guy anywhere close to the crap.
orrrrrbital weaponry!
but the force isn't made of stuff
there's apparently a dark force nexus in orbit around endor cuz of the emperor's death
can't really get rid of them
but like, whoopdedo some evil dudes with magic. Have them detained and shot on the double, captain. Off you go.
The bizarre logic of destroying the controls that shuts the door on your side of the door somehow affects the controls on the other side of the door is strange.
I mean.
yeah
No, not really
I mean unless you're familiar with the intricacies of <Star Wars Brand Futuristic Electronic Lock>?
I don't really have anything to back it up, but my sense of space fantasy tropes tells me that powerful dark side artifacts are not typically at the mercy of average goons. Like I'm assuming it takes a connection with the force to really destroy those kinds of things.

Isn't that how Goonswarm rolled?
I think everyone did that.
The way goonswarm rolled was drown the enemy in their own dead.
Because they had tons and tons of newbies with dirt-cheap ships.

There are probably about a dozen pages on Wookieepedia dealing with in-universe Force philosophies. You should read those to find out which one has your viewpoint on the force.

all we see in the movies are jedis and jedis gone bad so we only have their word for it
I think the big ball of repression that is a jedi just does not respond well to thinking they're free from that

well there's "dark areas" that are prone to corrupt jedi for some reason or another and make them go back.
so obviously somewhere the force itself has gone bad and evil for whatever reason, which ticks me off a bit.
You know that guy who got hit and was like "Sorry, I can't stay with you"? The one who they showed right before the mustache guy blew up?
He's the one with 149 pages written about him on Wookieepedia.
wtf, he wasn't even a character
he was the step between an extra and a redshirt
He survives the first 3 movies. So they made 9 books basically about him and his squadron, a comic series about him and his squadron that took up 3 omnibuses, was a main character in 3 games, and eventually became a famous general.

To be entirely honest: the first movie wasn't too bad. It wasn't the coming messiah of movies either. Belongs somewhere in the zone of Decent to Messiah.
Fun little fact: there are almost always two characters in each Final Fantasy game named Biggs and Wedge. They usually die pretty early in.
There was also a Piett at one point. I think he was in 6.
Biggs and Wedge show up as the mech pilots in 6 (I can't remember what they call them...MagiTek?) and as AVALANCHE members in 7. I don't recall what their other appearances are.

he is so great
he'll be totally quiet and then a gaggle of cute girls walk by and he gurgles with joy and adoration while wrapping his arms around my neck
i feel like i should buy him a drink, he is hamming it up
nah, that's my viewpoint on power/magic in general.

though it's over now - they just got their medallions.

He survives the first 3 movies. So they made 9 books basically about him and his squadron, a comic series about him and his squadron that took up 3 omnibuses, was a main character in 3 games, and eventually became a famous general.
Of course I mean Wedge Antilles, AKA the best character in Star Wars.
jersey boys is coming to the forrest theater in dec
we ought to watch it then go get malts
Fun little fact: there are almost always two characters in each Final Fantasy game named Biggs and Wedge. They usually die pretty early in.
they change them atleast
my theory is the jedi are fucked up repressed monks and when something fiddles with that they go bad
that they think the dark side of the force is responsible and not themselves just makes it easier
anyhow I'm off to bed.
To be entirely honest: the first movie wasn't too bad. It wasn't the coming messiah of movies either. Belongs somewhere in the zone of Decent to Messiah.
hutts are all crime lords
bothans are all spies
twi'lek are all whores
all the pilot dudes' races are pilots
There was also a Piett at one point. I think he was in 6.
what's that
In the X-wing books, the individual pilots are defined by their single lines in the movie.
The guy who was skeptical of the plan for 2 fighters to protect against a Star Destroyer? Always sad.
The guy who made a good shot and was happy about it? Always happy, always making good shots.
Biggs and Wedge show up as the mech pilots in 6 (I can't remember what they call them...MagiTek?) and as AVALANCHE members in 7. I don't recall what their other appearances are.
edit: they are also two enemy soldiers in FFVIII. This is where Piet appears as well: http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Piet
Assuming by "malt", you mean those old milkshakes. They called them that, right?
