Sir Vougalot Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 Grrrr! God, I am so sick of people saying this! Galen is not a Sith! He's a freaking Dark Jedi! There have been tons of them throughout the Expanded Universe! If he were a Sith, he'd be Darth Something-or-other. Vader and Palpatine have had many Dark Jedi operatives. In fact, Galen isn't even the one that comes closest to breaking the Rule of Two. Vader's later apprentice, Lumiya was a self-proclaimed "Dark Lady of the Sith," though she'd never actually been officially inducted into the Sith Order. And I'll tell you what actually does break the Rule of Two: the recently revealed "lost tribe of the Sith." But that's another discussion. To summarize: Galen is not in any way, shape or form, a Sith (except in the non-canon bonus missions to Tatooine and Hoth, where he is Vader's replacement, Darth Starkiller), and does not damage the Rule of Two whatsoever. In fact, he fits into it perfectly: the apprentice chooses someone to help him overthrow his master, and in turn becomes the new Sith apprentice once the former apprentice is now the master. We see Vader making this very proposal to Luke in The Empire Strikes Back. Not to mention how closely George Lucas himself oversaw The Force Unleashed when it was in development. He definitely would not have okayed anything that broke any fundamental Star Wars rules like that. [Edit] Sorry for being so snappy, I just get very annoyed at hearing the same amateur arguments over and over again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexrd Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Just to say that this is a pretty cool picture: Similar to Ezio's promotional shot for Assassin's Creed II. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JediSithLordAdas Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 actually that is something i did notice with Assassins Creed Games when they bought it out, is that the characters did look very similar to TFUs Secret Apprentice, an makes you wonder where they got the idea of there set platform of gaming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JediSithLordAdas Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Just thought of another person who reminded me of the Secret Apprentice in there Game... Alex Mercer from Prototype, they all looked similar in appearance also using the hood as there covering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Vougalot Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Well, a fully robed and hooded character isn't exactly a spanking new idea . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian762 Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 first off- when I first read about TFU I was under the impression it was going to be more like KOTOR except non-turn based fighting. KOTOR I & II storyline was awes and the new game engines sounded rad. So I was pumped, TFU was cool but I was disappointed with its linearity, ya you can choose light or dark but no real difference is in the story line, and it lacked the customization of KOTOR. I'm not big on turn based fighting, but enjoy the story of RPG's. I recently discovered Mass Effect it does just that, RPG with non-turn based fighting and it rox. If Lucas really wants a good game give us the engines of TFU and the story of a KOTOR game. So why not get back with bioware (they made KOTOR and ME games) and make it! Also not to talk about ME(mass effect) again but, the way the incorporate story lines between the games, (i.e. kill someone in the first, they're still dead in the sequel), seems (ME2 not out until 26th) like it will be awes and add tons of replay, especially if you have both games (3rd one on the way also). So a sequel to this could have the dude from TFU going into deep space to find the true sith lords and go from there, it’s a blank slate, and who doesn’t want some info on what happened to the true sith, it would rock.

adamqd Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 The lost tribe of the Sith don't break the rule of two, the Rule of two was Darth Bane's Order, an offshoot of the Brotherhood of darkness, itself an offshoot of an offshoot... the Lost tribe of the Sith are direct descendent's of Naga Sadow's Sith, the True Sith Empire... but as you say, thats another discussion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunstalker Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 Combine the depth of saber style and the danger of JO and JA with the actual choice and detail of KoTOR and the Dynamic and extraordinary interpretation of force powers in FU. What you have is a non turn based Star Wars game with extraordinary powers, realism of death by saber mixed matched battles do to saber styles and type of saber, true detail and differance...Maybe AI factionism like mandalorian, empire/sith, jedi/republic coupled with light and darkside force choices for real individual multiple outcome game play. And like in KoTOR don't be scared to expose players to in depth lore and choices lke Jedi enclave and Korriban trials etc etc. Perfect game .....replay FOREVER!!!

darth trayad 153 Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 A plot i thought of for TFU 3 is sk meets outcasts delta squad who did not betray the jedi and sk leads the outcasts of the clone army against the empire thats all I could think of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disturbed30 Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 TFU 2 Cant wait hopefully longer than the 1st one and hopefully have jedi robes instead of stupid outfits. Why couldn't they made Galen have robes like Maul or Obi Wan it's got me baffled got Sith Edition of TFU and still no robes for Galen closest thing is his spirit form. Anyone else think that Lucas Prequel's (Ep 1,2,3) were CRAP only good things about em were Maul and the sabre fight between Obi and Anakin in Revenge of the Sith. Maul should of lived until Revenge of the Sith and then replaced by Vader/Anakin and wtf was with the droids ROGER ROGER? Should of been assassin droids like HK from KOTOR and Count Dooku pfffft... does he change into a bat and despise garlic and dont get me f**ken started about General Greivous lame. Casting was good, effects were great, story was piss poor and had none of the qualities of the original trilogy. Maul was one of the coolest villains ever but gets pawned by a padawan Obi Wan when he should of got pawned by Anakin in Revenge of the Sith. There should of been terrorism acts on the Jedi. Bombs, Ambushes and having Maul and Jango finishing them off, Palpatine should of started his destruction of the Jedi order through out the prequels as they were the one thing standing in his way. Attack of the Clones has got to be the worst of all 3 prequels only relevant thing was Anakin slaughtering Sandpeople to begin is descent to the Darkside. The whole Geonosis was just f**ken lame surely they could of come up with something better than that s**t. Lucas should of hired some writers to help him with a better story he should of watched the original trilogy and looked at what made them great and applied it to the prequels. The guys who wrote the Force Unleashed story were great and it was an awesome game it got me interested in Starwars again and I'm looking forward to the sequel. I'm interested to see how Galen is still alive and kicking But I don't like Galen's outfit PLEASE GIVE HIM ROBES like Obiwan or Maul. Would be cool to dual wield, single wield or double sabre and to have different stances and sabre forms quick and flurry or regular swings and please make the sabre cut torsos, arms, heads off no need for gore but it is a lightsabre correct? Pretty happy with the force powers from TFU remove dash and have something a bit more permanent to cover area's quicker force speed until your force runs out or something.

Disturbed30 Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 I agree with Sunstalker Jedi Knight's Lightsabre Lethality and Dismemberment, Kotor's Character Development and Force Powers and the Force Unleashed's Engine and a longer lasting experience = a great game.

TKA-001 Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 I know this is a piddling, aesthetic, and overall unimportant thing to complain about, but until more material on the game is released there's almost nothing concrete to talk about: I really don't like the apprentice's new look. At the end of the first game he held his lightsaber back-handed and he had an outfit that made him look like the dude from Assassin's Creed became a Jedi. Now his outfit just looks kind of bland in comparison and his old lightsaber style is gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Vader Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Just to say that this is a pretty cool picture: Similar to Ezio's promotional shot for Assassin's Creed II. Yup. It's quite the same there. Cool pic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XianTsu Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 As I said somewhere in here, a Kotor1/2 type TFU would be sweet. Where you control a lot of the story, the side you choose. With better and more stable controls, please! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
