Should alternative "non-canon" videogame options be considered reliable?

Make your case. 馃檪

I don't see what's wrong with it unless it contradicts the established logic of the source material.

Like with every other source, be that canon or otherwise, the only thing that matters is whether it supports your case or not. If it does then it's legit, if it doesn't then f-uck it.

That's how SW debating works anyway.

Unless there's a drastic change of events that would've affected power growth, skill, battle-mentality, etc. it's the same characters, with same power levels, just doing different things. I think it's fair to consider it a secondary source of some kind.

Did I hit a nerv? Anyhow it wasn't actually a jab at you, but on SW debating in general. DS endings aren't the only thing that people don't want to accept. Author opinions, blurbs, Lucas quotes, novels, game versions (PC, Wii), Gillard ranking, and even actual Legend canon accolades can't be safe from agenda pushings here on KMC.

It's true lol.

It's a friendly jab, lol.

You're actually right.

Well in regards to TFU, the novels have the alternate endings as visions Galen has. I.e. Possible alternate futures.

I really don't see why he'd suddenly grow less powerful or something that would render it unusable.

Only when they support my agenda.

It isn't canon, so no.

Yes.

Heck, the DS ending of TFU has Starkiller killing Obi-Wan's ghost.

Might as well rename this thread "Fuck Syndicate and Fuck Galen"

All in all Beni this was a very Nova/Ant-esque thread for you to make, what with making a topic in just the right way to bait the forum into establishing some consensus/form norm that despite not being an actual valid canon/continuity rule, you could still try and enforce basically as such to shut up the people who disagree with you...

You're learning well 馃憜

You could make a new one.
