I actually would call it "Luke's weakness" more than anything. Especially in his earlier incarnations, Luke's unique in that he's powerful, but there are gaps in his knowledge/training that put him at a distinct disadvantage compared to other Jedi of his level.
For instance, it's implied he didn't even know how to properly defend himself against a telekinetic choke until Dark Empire.
If it were, for instance, Yoda facing Exar Kun, I doubt he would have had any difficulty with the assault.
Alright.
But the scene in the Wii version doesn't cut. It just has Galen straight up charging Vader and the fight starting while in the other version he's ragdolled before the fight starts. The two are contradictory. Not to mention if Vader was capable of doing that why didn't he simply just subdue Galen with the Force from the outset?

You're not making your own arguments now?
Anyways as I already said to you the Wii and Xbox version contradict each other making the gif he provided as evidence for his claims null. Also unlike Beni I do not feel the opinion of a voice actor has any bearing on circumstances as they were presented in the game. Furthermore the Darkside ending is non canon and like Witwer's opinion has no bearing on the circumstances of Galen and Vader's fight. As I mentioned the fight portrays Vader and Starkiller as peers with Starkiller unable to make any headway against Vader when the latter is fighting cautiously and Vader demonstrating his ability to press Starkiller at certain points in the fight most notably after Starkiller "hits a nerve." His point about Starkiller not being able to respond to Vader's strike is obviously incorrect given he let loose a burst of lightning on Vader's exposed side. There's no reason he couldn't have simply lifted a blade to have blocked the strike if he'd so chosen. Starkiller wisely took Vader's opening as an opportunity to halt the Dark Lord's offensive.

This is the problem with having a favourite character. People know where to poke your weakspots, and get you riled up. You should scarcely wank your favourite character and do so at spread out intervals.

I don't care about Starkiller. Only Galen. I only care about SK insofar as to protect the original template's rep.
