uuuuuuuuUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH

Seems to me they are just retconning a few things. Either that or this new guy destroyed Vitiate somehow. Or Vitiate is gonna end sometime between now and when the expansion comes out. Or this guy is Vitiate in another body, although that is becoming quite old and tiresome.

To be fair, "most powerful Emperor yet" might refer to political power. We haven't really even seen if the Immortal Emperor is Force-sensitive.

All but confirmed considering Force sensitivity is in some ways genetic and his sons are clearly strong with the force.

My real question is why do they wield lightsabers...

Having offspring that is immensely powerful in the Force doesn't really mean much.
ex: Revan's parents, Ezra Bridger's parents, Starkiller's parents, Kyp Durron's parents.

It's possible he is, though I would prefer a non-Force sensitive Emperor for once, tbh.

Eh it's unlikely that he's Non-Force Senstive, it doesn't seem that way really. But I could get behind a Non-Force User Emperor, that would be interesting.

He won't be non-force sensitive because then how could we lightsaber fight him????

Folks, the man is Force sensitive:

His eyes are glowing a pretty intense orange in the linked scene. Which for the record are usually a grayish blue. It's also quite obvious from the fact he doesn't give two ****s his son is about to kill him, which, as Stark says, is Force sensitive.

On the other hand:

Less powerful than Palpatine confirmed. 🤣

Not that I'm taking any more accolades from BioWare seriously after this. 🙄

Edit: Wait nvrm ok now I see it. Yeah...alright Force Sensitive.

I'm not sure how political power can be characterised as "the darkest".

Did you see what he did to his two sons, lmfao?

It says "the darkest and most powerful", his darkness and power aren't necessarily lumped together.

I don't see your point, that doesn't explain what "the darkest" refers to.

lol

"political power"

😂

Pfft, the father of Arcann is a father of mine.
