Why are he and the scarred guy so edgy? Kreia's whole thing was about practicality and rejecting dogma, what the fuck is wrong with these guys that they both ended up as pointless psycho murderers?

Obnoxious WH40K fan here but hear me out. I used to be a Star Wars fan and the whole Dark Side turning you into a cartoon villain didn't make sense to me either, until, well, I got to know WH40K. So, in Starwars, there is both an in-universe and out-universe debate whether the Dark Side is evil, it's users are evil, or whether it's a separate entity from the Force proper. I think the answer is that the Light and Dark sides are basically working on the same principle as the Chaos Gods in WH40K.
>the most basic emotions of living beings coalescing in semi-sentient metaphyisical beings
The desire to protect oneself and others, love, and generally positive emotions coalesce as the Light Side. The desire to dominate, survive at all costs, anger, hate, fear coalesce as the Dark Side.
>So where the fuck are you going with this, you nerd
The Chaos Gods in WH40K have agendas, they can feel, think, and act, but they can't be said to have a free will, as they are the sum total of their natures. Khorne can't be a cuddly chungus any more than Nurgle can take a bath or Slaanesh can stop sucking dicks. My realization was that the debate about the nature of the Force is resolved in the same manner. The Light and Dark side have agency, they act, they have a "will", but they are still the sum total of their natures. And, like in 40K, these metaphysical beings can overwhelm those in touch with them, and corrupt them. Jedi become retards detached from the darker reality of life, and Sith become retarded edgelords foaming at the mouth constantly and wanting to kick puppies. Only those with exceptionally strong character can tap into either side on the daily and not be twisted by them. This is last part is also basically word for word the Legends origin story of the jedi and Sith, the ancient Je'dai order and the first schism that birthed the Sith.

Good effortpost, I remember I used to think it was silly too until I was rewatching ROTJ one day and got to the part where Vader says "You don't know the power of the dark side. I MUST obey my master," and something just clicked in my head.
Pretty sure Yuthura makes a similar point in KOTOR too.

Wasn't he just hungry or something?Also is anyone else disappointed that we haven't gotten more Star wars RPGs where you can pick Sith or Jedi?

Up to a certain point, iirc, this was the direction George was taking it with the “whils” in his proposed sequel trilogy

This suddenly reminded me of that months long period where that one anon would shit up every KOTOR thread by acting like everything George ever said about the whills was 100% canon.

I don’t know about that. I actually prefer Avellone’s “force skepticism” to George’s “white man’s idea of what buddhism is supposed to be and is perfect and above criticism”

Same but it's a double-edged sword in that a franchise like Star Wars only has room for that kind of deconstruction story every decade or so without the entire mythology completely unraveling. Andor also tried the same thing and did an....OK job.

because kreia was a hypocrite bitch and refused to take responsibility for fucking up every single apprentice she ever had except for jedi jesus, who rejected her teachings
all the great stih of the period had her as a master at one point or another and all of them surpassed her and told her to gtfo after a while because she was a bitch
good character though

KOTOR 2 is one of the games that deserves a proper remake the most.
But is there any dev capable of doing it justice?

iirc, he was regular sith who hated jedi and kreia so much he wanted to wipe them out totally no matter the collateral but in reality his brutal methods were motivated by his force hunger puppeteering his desires and wouldve come up with more and more bullshit reasons to keep succing planets even if all the jedi died off until he truly turned into just a being animated by pure hunger.
>>712762414
To this day I do not understand the point of having kreia have an entirely understandable plan and then you still just kill her even if you're light side/good

Serious answer:
He accepted power that was not his own and became a slave to it. Had the exile not rejected the power that comes from death, he too, would have become hunger personified. That is the true lesson of strength.

I get the Old Repbulic failing but wouldn't another Star wars RPG be amazing? Star wars games now have so much potential to be good. Sadly the IP just ends up in the hands of NPCs who want to make boring ass progtanist like Kay.
