Alright gotta go. If I don't respond I'm not ignoring you.

Can I get your thoughts on why you think that is?

In the lightsaber fight if I recall correctly Yoda was able to disarm Sidious while Galen wasn't.

Yoda was able to employ tutamintis and live and actaully be even to Sidious or appear even while Galen died. Also Sidious did try to flee from Yoda, he never really tried that with Galen.

Yoda was never said to be no match for Sidious, while Galen was.

Yoda like Galen has blasted through entire armies by himself.

Galen collapsed after his star destroyer feat. Yoda was perfectly fine.

Galen manipulated an already falling star destroyer.

While Yoda pushed back the vessels holding the droids, and caused the aircraft that held those vessels to crash into one another. That there to me is more impressive than Galen sending manipulating an already falling star destroyer and then being exhausted afterward.

Yoda manipulated transports. Galen moved a Star Destroyer. I think it's obvious who wins.

Spoiler:
Not Galen.

Great except it was confirmed multiple times he was ultimately no match for Palpatine. In fact he wasn't even Vader's equal IMO. (But then some would argue Vader is just a notch below Palpatine anyway).

I would say Yoda, but the fact that Galen Marek redirected a star destroyer whereas Yoda struggled to stop falling debris before his duel with Dooku makes me think otherwise...

Galen and Sidious never entered into a lightsaber duel. Also we were talking about their comparative showings in the Force in regards to their shared opponent were we not?

That's because Galen actively lowered his defenses to allow Juno and the Rebel leaders to escape.

Actually...

"This truth: that he, the avatar of light, Supreme Master of the Jedi Order, the fiercest,
most implacable, most devastatingly powerful foe the darkness had ever known...
228
just—
didn't—
have it." - Revenge of the Sith.

Fair enough though never on the magnitude of Galen.

Galen didn't collapse. Also I believe the SD was larger then the ships Yoda TK'ed though of course Yoda displayed more control over his targets.

I put them around the same level given the SD was larger while the transports Yoda TK'ed were smaller though Yoda displayed more control. Also Galen had just fought through the shipyard on Raxus Prime before he'd accomplished said feat.

And that's fine. I never said he was.

The DS ending makes it painfully clear that Sidious was holding back against Galen. And what would happen if he tried to attack him again.

The DS ending is non canon even when the Legends/EU was canon.

Noncanon =/= inaccurate representation of possible events

And it doesn't equal an accurate representations of events either. Like an opinion it can be solidl and sometimes not so solid. It doesn't have any bearing on its relevancy.

That's nice. Any evidence to prove it's not accurate, besides a comic panel before Sidious makes Marek blow himself up, I mean.

Ah but now all of Legends in n-canon so where does that leave us with alternative endings? Technically they are all just legends where Star Wars in concerned. Not to mention they represent a good angle on how the developers of the game view how that battle would have gone.

Given the events that occurred I believe Sidious did see Galen as a worthy successor. You obviously believe differently. Since all you have is a non canon version of events supporting your theory and all I have is circumstantial evidence they're both equally valid which is to say unconfirmed.

You view them the same way you viewed them in the past. Higher levels of canon when they were canon still supersede it.
