@SWPraxeum @ro97247612 @Luke_Maxxing The series is tailor-made for c. 13 year olds who watch "Darth Caedus" lore videos, think it's the most tragi-compelling thing ever, and then pick up a book or two and struggle to make sense of them
source: I was said 13 year old ten years ago and my first SW book was Betrayal

@ro97247612 @Luke_Maxxing Revelation was technically the first Star Wars book I read back in ‘13, but that was solely motivated by me slopping the Wook and thinking it was something it wasn’t lol

This is good actually because it shows me there is in fact a world where Legacy of the Force is even worse

@Dimenteon @Luke_Maxxing I don't remember that. I just remember the One Sith girl who was into him. I guess they should have set it another three years into the future so that Ben could be old enough to be the one to defeat Jacen at the end.

@SCentralized We've got to get at least one more wave so that the world may be reintroduced to the genius of Ruins of Dantooine

Oh trust me that’s not in the criteria for selection for the ELC

"Enter the fandom" and instantly have the most boring, unimportant conversations about a game imaginable!
vivi@radiantsoulls
why is "entering the fandom" of a game so important to ssome people fandoms suck asss

@Luke_Maxxing It's such an interesting book. A lot of questionable things like the election or editing oversights, but WJW does *such* a great job carrying emotions and atmosphere. The scene where Luke & Mara reunite with Jacen still chokes me up whenever I think about it...

I really like Destiny's Way. Even though it hurts me personally that they make Traest Kre'fey kind of insane I actually really like how it addresses and argues against the "military is always right and politicians hold them back" attitude that's present in a lot of early NJO.
English
@RebelScum_MF Incidentally why Keyes' books have the best official depictions - Terese Nielsen based them on his input.
The more abstract art worked for the NJO sourcebook as an experimental art piece, but it *did* help poison the well of discussion surrounding the NJO series at large.

I think one of the main problems with the Vong is that they skipped the concept art process, all the Vong designs look like a bunch of visions that don't quite fit together. They would have benefited from some visual development, like the Nightsisters in The Clone Wars.
English
@Luke_Maxxing They set up 14-year old Ben as the new protagonist for six books only to end the series with him being molested by his dead cousin's 30-year old ex girlfriend
English
Legacy of the Force is a really good tragedy on paper and then you read it and realize Jaina is not in it until the last 2 books

03 and 2011 Old Republican Trooper designs is probably the best encapsulation of the historical divide between pre and post clone slopification within the Star Wars franchise imho

@zweiwalker89607 Hope this doesn't sound too weird but seeing another soul go through the gaslighting in these books for the first time has been an exhilarating ride lol
English
Denning has access to a secret bizarro version of New Jedi Order, in which the Yuuzhan Vong species survives the war at the end *in spite* of Vergere's efforts and teachings and not *because* of them.
What the fuck do you *mean* her beliefs are the same as Palpatine's?

Ugh Now reading

@zweiwalker89607 the gang meeting the Mayor of Sernpidal, who, it turns out, is an old Nick Rostu...

Feel free to suggest ideas for what the Vector Prime fanart should be.
Luke Zweiwalker🟢🟢🟢🟢🛰️🟢@zweiwalker89607
I have an idea. How about I try to draw one piece of fanart for every book in New Jedi Order?

@Luke_Maxxing Diminishing quality of the books themselves aside, there's something to be said for how *boring* the universe got after ROTS dropped. Goodbye, expansive worldbuilding of Bantam and themetically resonant storytelling of early 00s Del Rey; hello, Jedi v. Sith story number 1138.

It is so funny how as an apology for having a new idea in New Jedi Order, Legends proceeds to introduce four separate secret surviving Sith groups.

Idk man the Meet Your Padre reaction is a classic 😭
doomstan1@mfdoomstan1
The NFR Podcast UTOPIA reaction is one of the greatest pieces of media from this century. I’m convinced 😭

@ironcrakka The following RepCom books get even more self-indulgent and sluggish, which all culminates in ImpCom: 501 being this weird, misogynistic British domestic soap opera with minor sci-fi elements
