Ups and Downs of the Expanded Universe

In truth I am torn, I love Eu but the movies git me going.

Drop your Jawa league eh, Janus?

Not really. The crew is just never here.

Okay. Sorry

And so he returns. Hope he doesn't mouth off again... *crosses fingers for luck*

Anyway, EU, while very interesting and backgrounding everything in the movies, just isn't the same as the movies. KOTOR is great, sure, but it's not like the movies.

No, It's Better!

Like hell it's better. It's so scattered. And the story is just...unbelievable. It's too much too be resolved the way they did it.

My opinion...so....pthbbth!

Still a fun game nontheless.

I say both EU and the movies are great! Now stop arguing people and agree with me already damnit! 😛

Yes! Hear hear!

The story wasn't scattered... Not Kotor 1... Now Kotor 2 was...

Yea, I meant scattered in like a......too much over long distance and short time.

Well, considering Yoda trained for 700 years and never came close to NJO Luke's strength, yeah he was WAY overpowered.

Luke's midichlorian count was higher than Yoda's. He was as he father should have been.

No Jedi can match him in terms of sheer strength in the Force.

He was certainly not overpowered. If anything, he was underpowered.

Luke? Underpowered!? Dude...Luke is the most overpowered looser in all of Star Wars.

Now, now Rex, no need to be smarti off to me, but its good to see you again.

Got that straight, even all those Revan obsessors who boost him so much can't compare to the Power Luke has received, thanks in part by our beloved NJO.

Oh, I'm not trying to be mean, just saying I hope you don't mess up again. 😉

Oh, I wont.

Okay....

Good: Pre PT stuff (for the most part), Clone Wars

Bad: How EU tends to repeat and re-hash things over and over (bunches of clones? Another Death Star? Yippee.....😐), how it creates random plot holes and contradicts movies

Ugly: NJO, the fact that I can write better stories than 95% of EU, how ridiculously overpowered and out of character the characters are. Oh, and the fanboys 😬

I'm sorry, but so far as I'm concerned, while there is some good EU, a lot is complete garbage and could never hold a candle to the movies.

Not even a very pretty candle? 😄

😆 no, smartass 😛

Oh yeah! Another thing I hated in the EU....freakin' ysalimiri! Is that not the most retarded concept ever? I mean, I liked the Thrawn Trilogy books, it was the first EU I read, but still...."they make a Force bubble!" WHAT. THE. F*CK.
