SWTOR vs. PT! (and OT kek) Part 2

6 whole cars?! Damn. May need to consider then.

It is due to members like you that (so-called) TOR 'wanking' becomes necessary at some point. Otherwise, we get claims like Anakin Skywalker blitzing Vitiate and vice versa.

Aryn gestured at a cargo tram near the three men shooting at them from behind. The six cars of the tram rushed toward the men, propelled by Aryn’s power. (Taken from Star Wars: The Old Republic: Deceived)

Vader.

Vader extended a gloved hand and loosed a blast of power that blew apart two of the lyleks rushing toward him, showering those behind with gore and chunks of carapace.
-- Lords Of The Sith

The lyleks burst through the trees, huge insectoid creatures that bounding over logs, the pair of tentacles near their mandibles squirming. Seeing Vader, the Emperor, and the guards, they hissed and rushed forward.

The guards fired, their rifles writing red streaks in the air. The bolts struck the lyleks but bounced off their carapaces, deflecting into the trees.

Nobody here except Aryn holds a candle to Vader. Collectively, it's a good fight but they all fall.

How exactly is blowing apart two defenseless creatures an epic demonstration of power?

Yes.

I've seen the quote before. I was being facetious. It's not nearly as impressive as you think it is.

Not when random Jedi can collapse buildings, no.

And yet random Jedi telekinetically support falling Star Destroyers 👆

Eh, those trams are probably pretty dang big. But either way Malgus could one-shot the Jedi who collapsed those buildings but not Aryn so bluh.

I really wouldn't consider Leneer more powerful than Wyellett. That guy was considered a super weapon 15 years before he achieved force enlightenment or whatever.

I don't recall 'random' Jedi collapsing buildings in any era.

TOR hypes up so many of its characters that even the unseen/dead ones receive more hype than most others would in multiple sources combined.

Pfft, how many PT characters get called among the best in history again? Isn't it like, all of them?

Coleman Trebor FTW.

None of them are off-screen people, though. And the off-screeners who get hyped in TOR are hyped just to hype the enemies you face on-screen.

Nah, a lot of PT people are called among the best of their time. Of all time, there's not too many. PT era has some unreliable hype at times though, definitely.

Because those beast were huge, apex predators durable enough to not just tank, but deflect blaster bolts, which have burnt holes through people, including jedi. Because he showed no particular strain in performing the feat, not to mention this was years before his prime. Because only people like Plagueis have replicated something like that (of course the latter should still be superior to Vader overall).

Compare that to, for example, Malgus, who was never shown as being able to do the same to non Force sensitives (which are nowhere near as durable as those Lyleks Vader disintegrated), even in his prime as False Emperor, and you'll have your answer.
