Should Vitiate be banned from versus contests?

There is nothing about the PT or OT that's nearly as interesting as the kotor era, or the republic dark ages, gaots, etc.

I'm laughing at this idea that Star Wars was ever exceptionally well written.

I think anything written by Mathew Stover was pretty well written, tbh.

Then again, there was Shadows of Mindor... Which wasn't bad, but...

Mindor was lame. But even great authors have shit moments.

RotS literally sits on the KotOR era, so that redeems Stover for me.

Yeah, the only EU eras worth a damn are the PT, NJO, and KOTOR the game.

No NR? I mean, I find it overrated myself, but I thought most people loved it.

Hm, what about TOTJ? [And I think he was including NR with NJO]

TOTJ isn't bad.

Pt was worth nothing and NJO was saved by the Vong war.

The amount of contrived manure throughout NJO and Legacy of the Force is astronomical. Traviss' Mando wank was the nail in the coffin.

Nah, the PT EU is better than anything before it. The only thing in the same ballpark is KOTOR, which is excellent Star Wars. TOTJ is ok. The rest is dogshit.

Traviss' Mando wank will probably be my coffin if I read that stuff again. Revelation was so, so, so bad...

NJO was the Vong War.

LOTF and FOTJ suck, yeah. NJO was pretty good, all things considered.

You need to come up with a whole new word for LotF. I mean, some of the entries (Allston's, mostly) aren't too bad, but some of them just make you want to choke babies.

KotOR on its own is great Star Wars, without the following media.

Kreia does a good job of what Avellone intended, challenging the concepts of the Force. Unfortunately Vergere was a lot less doomsday about it. So essentially KotOR II turned out to be a playground(clusterf#ck) of metaphors, that were themselves done better by another author.

Still vastly better than almost anything NJO or LotF.

Dark Disciple is shit, too.
