The Force Unleashed II

You know the Empire's insurance premiums skyrocketed after this incident.

Son of a *****. Why the fvck did I put this here? REXXX, could you please move this?

All I can say is, WOW @ Galen. ohhh

On a sidenote: does anyone know what the hell type of omni-directional attack he used to disintegrate the clone troopers? (starts at 2:23)

Did you see that shit at 2.25?! ****ing hell! Galen Marek is just retardedly powerful!

edit: Pretty sure that was just a retardedly powerful Force Repulse.

I think it was similar to the technique used by Kajin Savaros in Patterns of the Force. Hell, if anything, Savaros's display was more impressive, given his lack of training and that the individual he disintegrated was one of Palpatine's Inquisitors.

I... dislike the clone plot introduction.

They did it with Palpatine.

Of course, though a lot of people think this raises the question why didn't the Emperor do this with Anakin, I think it actually answers that question.

I'm about 95% sure that this isn't the first time the Apprentice has been cloned. After re-reading the scene where he wakes up after Vader betrayed and killed him, I'm almost positive that it was a clone. Like this bit for instance:

'The apprentice tried to think. He flexed his hands, marveling at his amazing return to health. It seemed almost too good to In-true.

A disconcerting thought occurred to him. He hastily tugged oft first his right glove, then the left. He was reassured to see only skin beneath-no synthetic materials or artificial joints. His knuckles moved the same as always; his fingernails were neat and even. The only odd detail was that his scars were gone.

He rubbed his right hand down his chest to his stomach, remembering the terrible wound his Master had inflicted. 1 It-thought of the damage raw vacuum did to human lungs. Bacta tanks performed miracles, but they weren't that good.'

and 'The apprentice ran a hand across his chest, feeling the smoothness of his uniform as though with entirely new nerves.'

Plus no-one could survive what happened to him.

Also, the TFU2 website is really effing wierd.

And getting thrown around a room (very hard), having several bones crack from the sound of it and then getting thrown into space without a suit or anything. Unless he was taken in in like half a minute (approx how long you can survive in a vacuum) he really should of died.

Vader could have put Starkiller in a Force bubble when he was outside the ship.

I'd hit that.

Spoiler:
And Gideon, for bringing it to my attention.

Srsly dho, why a small army of gun-toting... gunmen would rush the single dude with swords is beyond me. Before that happened I was astounded at how badass [and very shiny!] the stormtroopers appeared.

Also, sabers that cut this time, plz. I like plasma-soluble people and severed limbs, because it's a videogame and it's Star Wars and I don't have to think about how awful that is.

@Neph: That's an interesting theory. If I had more faith in LucasArts foresight, you might have convinced me.

I'm curious to see precisely when in the timeline this is set, though.

After the first Force Unleashed and still prior to Yavin.

So new Starkiller gets flash cloned and completely trained in a year? Eh.

Edit: Dismemberment is confirmed. I am a happy child.

I'm still curious to see how they explain he's alive.

OMG!!!!

That's freaking awesome. That is the best Star Wars clip I think I have ever seen. Good coreography, villians not walking around saying stupid things. That was incredible.

This game is going to be rated M?!?! And can I just beg them to make it a movie instead?

When I was committed to SWR, I wanted to revamp TFU and combine it with elements of Blank's trilogy. Essentially replace Luke with Starkiller and retell his story....

Spoiler:
Though obviously the ending would be a little different than Blank's.

Spoiler:
y replace Luke?

on the idea of the thread though: Is what we just saw Canon? Because we have never seen any force user beat THAT many stormtroopers at one time. Galen is moving on up in the "most powerful" rankings, imo. And this is galen, is it not? It might be a clone, but it definitly has to have had an essence transfer as opposed to straight cloning technology, since he remembers things, right? So it still counts as Galen, not Gaalen.

I'm not certain that there is any sort of spirit transfer.

Spoiler:
Because Palpatine would need to survive and Luke's a hero; in Blank's trilogy, Palpatine dies but succeeds in destroying Luke Skywalker as we know it
