There is nothing outside the text 🙄So no. And I doubt it's a case of votes either. They're not part of the canon as it's defined. So if you're thinking of using appeals to popular belief, then let me remind you the same philosophy is commonly used to rationalize bribery. And in the past, slavery. 👆
"...continuity "C" canon which is pretty much everything else." By everything else I mean EVERYthing else. Novels, comics, junior novels, videogames, trading card games, roleplaying games, toys, websites, television. As I've mentioned earlier, any contradictions that arise are dealt on a case-by-case.
This has been our general approach to continuity since we began using the Holocron database to track it."
Pretty sure publishers summaries would come under "everything", so yes they are part of the canon "as it's defined."
Anyway I voted yes. Going by the above they should be treated as canon, and I personally find it hard to believe that a statement as specific as to state Caedus to be more powerful than Vader could be made arbitrarily and without consultance or at least vetting.
It also stands to reason that the publishers work closely with Lucasfilm, as is common when dealing with liscensed material, especially when that material has a monitored continuity.
However I also increasingly agree with Elliminst that even canon statements can be fallible. I think that would more so be the case for a publishing summary, and in general the further you move away from objective/movie Canon and Lucas Liscensing in general, this is especially true as of Legends.
Originally posted by FreshestSliceWhen it lumps Yoda in the same tier with Windu and Vader, and Dooku in the same tier as Obi-Wan, against established facts both shown and stated, its accuracy and reliability should be brought into serious question, especially considering the source of origin. Nice try though. 😉
Beni, you said everything, and it's a pretty infallible statement. Either accept that Bastila is in the same league as Dooku, or kill yourself. These are the only two options.
On the other hand don't pretend you'd take it any less seriously if it were stated in the KOTOR campaign guide, lawls.
