I'm not sure what the new controversy is. We knew for a while that SWTOR was generally in a grey area - not fully in Legends, canon, or non-canon.

As a community we still accept it as Legends though, especially considering the novels and certain events featured in sourcebooks are undisputededly Legends.

It's obviously Legends. I'm merely pointing out that using this guy as evidence to discredit some Bane quote (which I don’t know what it is) is silly as he clearly has no clue what he is talking about.

Yeah, obviously.......

@ares834: The publisher of Fact Files thinks SWTOR is non-canon, as shown in the tweet. That's all that matters.

Because of such, Vitiate and prime Revan are explicitly not being considered in a quote that states Darth Bane is more powerful than all before him.

The publisher confirmed they aren't be considered. Regardless of their reasons being stupid, the fact remains that they weren't considered.

Dm Bane is canonically superior
Canon feats > Legends feats
Bane wins
All hail Bane
All bow down to Bane

Indeed. An obvious jest considering my first post was:

So SWTOR isn't even Legends canon?

SWTOR confirmed Infinities trash.

So Ant, what do you think the quote does apply to? Is Bane above Exar Kun, Nadd, Muur etc?

Exar Kun and friends were explicitly mentioned in one of the fact files.

But no, I think the quote only applies to the time period regardless.

Now that Revan and Vitiate are preserved though, I don't really care what others think about it.

PS: I probably have Darth Bane above Karness Muur regardless - or at least equals.

And? Even if the guy in charge of the twitter page knows that they weren’t considered (something I seriously doubt considering his blunder in his tweet) how does that discredit the quote? At the end of the day, it’s still canon.

Edit: Admittedly, I'm not inclined to believe the quote because of feats. But I really don't think the tweet strengthens either sides argument.

It's not that hard to comprehend, ares.

SWTOR has been confirmed to have not been considered in the quote.

And so, when used in debates, we shouldn't state SWTOR is being considered...

Because it's explicitly not.

That was the central debate of the past several days here.

It's been used to argue Darth Bane is factually superior to Vitiate and whatnot.

Basically, Revan, Vitiate, the Dread, Malgus, etc. have been granted immunity.

Embrace it.

The publisher? Didn't you say the publishers and their blurbs had no say on what's true or not true about the content?

And why is this in VS?

u r retarded, in the continuity discussed here swtor is canon, the quote would count for the continuity discussed here

Jack? 😉

im right? he says it doesnt consider swtor because swtor isnt canon, well here swtor is still treated as canon, so the quote must be valid for swtor too

That's not the point. The point is SWTOR wasn't even considered when the quote was written, so it shouldn't be valid regardless of the reasons why it wasn't considered.

Authors and publishers have the authority to clarify their own works.

Yeah, that's what publishers do. They aren't writers.

Ant, Beni is saying that Sidious can TP Revan in the Dread Masters thread. Heresy?

Of course he would say that because it's not canon, this wasn't asked when the EU was still intact.
