Marek has tons of incrediballs feats in the first book like blasting thousands of droids hard enough to create an artificial hurricane that stretched over the horizon, powering a capital ship with lightning, destroying the Skyhook (that reached into orbit) with TK, one-shotting an AT-AT with lightning + killing it's crew, buckling the star destroyers hull, casually considering obliterating the Jedi Temple replica with one force push and other thing's I'm sure I'm forgetting. Dude still struggles with the likes of Kota, Paratus, Shaak Ti and a random Shadow Guard and tbh Vader has nothing approaching that crap.Debatable, but irrelevant.
Absurd troll logic. Vader's level is established in numerous other works. Marek should be brought down to (slightly above) his level in those. It's the logical thing.
Considering the only thing I wanted to do was point out the absurdity of claiming a game that's called The Force Unleashed isn't about the Force being unleashed and that's the sole thing I interjected to do, I don't particularly care what you think about my "argument".
To address your first part, Marek is raw power without control. He also only "struggled" with Paratus' speed thanks to his legs, he destroyed him easily with the Force. Either way, Marek's supposed struggling with them were due to how unrefined his force attacks were, as he himself notes numerous times. In a raw power sense he should be beyond Vader, but he is not because he is not refined.
I'm using "troll" logic to show you how incorrect your argument is. Not to mention the idea that Galen beating Vader in combat (with effort) means he's actually on Vader's level as a Force User. I mean he is, but not because their duel was close.
I never argued that it wasn't about the Force being unleashed, merely that the way they showed the Force being Unleashed was by making a powerful character and making him fight powerful characters. All I'm saying is that making a character be intensely strong for the purpose of making a strong character, isn't grounds for it being disregarded. If you get my drift.
Vitiate is made as strong as he is to give the illusion to protagonists can't do anything to stop him. He's hyped for the sole purpose of hyping him, it's called story telling. We don't dismiss all his feats entirely simply because he's powerful, now do we.
If every other character in that game was far beyond what they'd previously shown then I'd understand, but they are not, so I do not.
