@ScriptTrooper @OGStarwarsAB Exactly, the EU fanatics just can’t understand that there is a difference between approving something for the sake of the business and actually considering it as part of your creation.

Lucas interview with Total Film back 2008:
"And now there have been novels about the events after Episode VI, which isn't at all what I would have done with it. The Star Wars story is really the tragedy of Darth Vader. That is the story. Once Vader dies, he doesn't come back to life, the Emperor doesn't get cloned and Luke doesn't get married..."
Lucas approved Mara Jade in the EU in the 90s but in his canon Luke would never marry.
English
He did give the ok. If he didn't want Luke married, he would have vetoed it.
Script Trooper@ScriptTrooper
@jondelarroz To be fair, Lucas didn't want Luke married either. Then again Disney hasn't cared about what George wanted.

@JackyCann201228 @Infernionwow They can, doesn’t mean you have to be rewarded for it in each case. And again, what I proposed is far from giving a reward for participation. You still have to play well to get to the top 5% of players.
English
@aeutius @Infernionwow People can be competitive in anything 🤷♂️ I’m of the opinion that the quality of players has gotten significantly worse over the past 3-4 expacs specifically at “high” rating so it’s not that fun to be actively competitive.
English
@Sir__Rendar @brien_ben29048 @ct_girlie And who said I don’t enjoy other things? I said myself, I don’t think everything made by Disney is terrible. But to pretend it’s the same Star Wars as the one the original creator made it is disingenuous.
English
@brien_ben29048 @aeutius @ct_girlie Too narrow, must be hard to enjoy anything in the age of interconnected media.
English
i'm so fucking tired of watching the star wars that i love repeatedly get put down and called lesser or not "true" star wars because its from the disney era
English
@JackyCann201228 @Infernionwow You just don’t understand that there is a difference between achievable goals and something that is out of reach. It’s fine to have such attitude in an actual competition but not in a video game. Decreasing the level to something that covers 4-5% of players is still elite.
English
@aeutius @Infernionwow That’s fine. But that’s also what people with 1,000 games at 1600 say. If you’re one of those people I don’t know what to tell you. You want the reward because you know you’ll never get it. There’s a ton of other ways to get cool cosmetics in the game,stop begging for skill ones
English
@JackyCann201228 @Infernionwow Because only an absolute tinny group of people care to be good enough to reach 0.1, 0.5 or whatever glad is now. Modes like arena should encourage participation if you want it to be healthy and not total sweats who need proof that they are great at a game.
English
@aeutius @Infernionwow I need to understand how playing to a certain rating will progressively getting better is catering. Like actually. Break it down for me.
English
@AzaelOfficial You just don’t get it, insurance companies are taking a fat piece of your pay check so that later you get the privilege of covering the first few thousands for whatever you need. That’s such a deal. 😎😉
English
@brien_ben29048 @ct_girlie Yes, I know it’s sounds silly, and I am not saying this in a hateful way, but there is enough interviews out their with George Lucas saying that the Star Wars he considers “his” is the first 6 movies. So at best everything else is derivative from what the creator intended .
English
@aeutius @ct_girlie So the only true Star Wars to you is first 6 movies and Clone Wars?
English
@DShyKnock Shame we can’t see the change in skin sales over time. I would love to see what is the correlation between the two. 😄
English
In case you were wondering the post-Easter bump was 2%
Mid 50s is our regular season norm for NA with top matches peaking in the 70s so take from that what you will
ShyKnock@DShyKnock
Was slightly worried about LCS average viewership only hitting 53K this past weekend, and while it's still an issue it's also not isolated to NA Spring vs Winter Average comparisons (so far) with current average CBLOL: 106K (19%) LCK: 329K (24%) LCS: 53K (40%) LEC: 160K (50%) Argument to be made that 40% of a smaller number is the most meaningful given proximity to the proverbial point of no return, but I'd be curious to know what Riot's benchmarked range was For further LCS context: the Lock-In/Winter to Spring average dropoff last year was (10%) by split end and prior years spring to summer dropoffs were (6%) in 2022, (30%) in 2023, and (21%) in 2024. Going to be an interesting week 2 of LCS to see how well that number rebounds from Easter Weekend. all data pulled from escharts

Having a break from WoW has been lovely — but what the fuck?
Why is really no one concerned about where Xal'atath went other than Umbric? Why is no one freaking out? Xal won. Why are we having a Troll patch next? Why do we keep ending on the Radiant Song talking to one person -
English
@Disparage_ @Infernionwow Sure, if there was something else to gain I would continue to play longer during the season. If there was some kind of currency I would get for winning at a certain level that I could use to buy those rewards, that’s would be neat.
English
@aeutius @Infernionwow So you get current gladiator then let’s say blizzard is like yo you want an old school glad mount okay 2700 with 25 wins. You’ll continue to grind?
English
@Disparage_ @Infernionwow You don’t get it. There are plenty of people who didn’t play in the past, so once they get the current rewards, there is little reason to continue grinding. If I could get some of the old mounts, that would definitely incentivize me to keep playing and maintaining my rank.
English
@aeutius @Infernionwow People who aren’t grinding currently for glad more than likely will not grind it for a similar reward from previous expansions. They will either give up or buy a boost.
English
@Infernionwow Same shit. Blizzard shouldn’t be catering to such a small group in the first place. Even if it will be 3-4% of the player base who will be able to buy these, it’s still a relatively small group.
English
@aeutius It's not a similar level of achievement though. Blizzard can't replicate the conditions those mounts were earned in.
And let's be real, people don't want a "similar level". They want them easier to get, not earned at top 0.5% end of season, which is how they were earned.
English
@DShyKnock I know about the losses. I just assumed they don’t care about it and would ride it out for longer, but I guess they even count their money from time to time. lol
English
By the way, if you think this is going to just be golf you are crazy
Pulling the plug on LIV just starts the coutdown clock on esports no matter how much people tell you otherwise
Alan Shipnuck@AlanShipnuck
To use the old Hollywood saw, No one knows anything. But a tapped-in player agent just texted me, “Have heard MBS wants to use the war as Force Majeure to pull the plug.”
English
@azunar3 @princesskryze That’s the point of Mail dude. He is so driven by revenge and hate that he can’t just comprehend that maybe he should change. In a way he is a tragic figure. Not everyone has to experience a total metamorphosis all the time.
English
@princesskryze Maul is also so good at being boring since he never grows or changes
English
maul is so good at being bad that you can’t help but cheer for him
English
@AngryBeav4Life @risebluesun I feel the same way. I think Disney has overall botched Star Wars, but that doesn’t mean I am going to just consider anything they make as bad. There animated stuff has been one of the shining lights so far.
English
@risebluesun I’m as anti-Disney Star Wars as it gets, but this show is really good. Idk why people want this show to fail, I want Disney to make good Star Wars content, they haven’t done so a lot but they are right now with this show. That’s a good thing.
English
Maybe leave your bubble of negativity.
Plenty are talking, and plenty are enjoying it.
Fake Wizard@RealLifeFakeWiz
There is a new Star Wars show out with Darth Maul as the lead protagonist... and I don't see ANYONE talking about it. This brand is so unbelievably dead. Can't wait to find out it is doing worse numbers than Starfleet Academy...
English
@kryzebuff The Rebels as a unified group don’t even exist by this time. It’s just a bunch of separate small groups. It’s a galaxy with 10 of thousands of different planets. People don’t need to be everywhere.

Am I the only one who finds it kinda weird that the Empire *hasn’t* come to Janix yet? If it’s a perfect hideout for Maul and his crew, couldn’t it also be a great place for a rebel cell or something?
