Also that’s another dumb bit of lore because chewie smacks a bunch of people.

Chewie came along a lot later on.

It couldve been one of those things that died out after the High Republic Era

It’s boring which is the cardinal sin in entertainment. Now back to your regularly scheduled programming

I made that Wookie kill his best Twilek friend on my dark side run of KOTOR. I still feel guilty about that

I have no hope it will ever get released. There is a solid iPad port of the original game. No sketchy mobile gaming features. Full game, no ads.

It's coming, they said it's alive and well on April 4th.

I'm glad it's the same devs that made the original.

It is gonna be built up from the ground up and look like a modern PS5 game.

I definitly agree that it starts off boring.

I feel like every disney star wars show outside the Mandalorian has started off way too slow.

I have seen some critics point out that disney is trying to stretch movies into 8 part shows and I think that could be part of it.

Honestly I bailed on Obi-wan before the cool scene with Vader because it was so fricking boring.

Agreed it’s a chronic problem with their shows. You didn’t miss anything with Obi Wan

BioWare also has solid Jade Empire port on mobile too if you never played it the first go around. I was a BioWare homer for most of my life until Andromeda/Anthem

It had one non-boring episode. 5.

ep 7 was boring af. Worst lightsaber choreography I have ever seen in any SW property. Hands down. Rehashing everything we already know, offering very little new information.

Just goofy bad. All this wait for a Wookie wielding a saber, and you get something that looks awkward and lazy like:

I played Andromeda and didn’t hate it, but it was at least a year after its buggy release. It doesn’t hold a candle to the ME trilogy though.

Anthem was so fun for two hours. Luckily for me I had the 10 hours of early access. After 2 hours I requested the refund before the game fully released.

You need to stop, man

Shorts don't travel

A short IS the path

It is an accidentally, or intentionally, created new path for current between the load and the source. Usually accidentally bridging and bypassing the normal route and components.

Same. Just saw it as a different IP.

Got near the end and just stopped playing. No real reason why. Is the ending worthwhile?

Not really. I had to read the synopsis to remember how it ended. The bad guys just didn’t compare to the Reaper threat.

But from what I’ve read, the new Mass Effect will incorporate Andromeda so it may be worthwhile to finish it. Or watch a recap video.

Getting rid of the EU was always a way to scam writers out of royalties.

They still cherry pick from it, they just don't have to pay.

exactly. the short created a current (possible overload) in the show and it blew shite up.

it wasn't rocks burning like everyone was trying to say
quote:

quote: The OIL would burn, and when it burned out the fire would no longer exist b/c concrete isn’t going to burn.

Did you watch the show? The fire started from the oil lamp and right above that there were 2 electrical boxes that the fire caused to short out and spread the fire by blowing up shite. The fire didn't spread from burning concrete

There's a scene where the electrical short spreads to some big reactor looking thing and it blows up.

quote:

A short at a breaker box isnt going to make all of the equipment explode. Thats not how electricity works.


I don't know where he got the word breaker box from, but this panel shorted out and a current traveled to that big arse thing that exploded.

If anyone has any alternate suggestions for what happened other than what I described I'd like to hear them

And the best explanation of moosy in space is how boring the scene would be with no noise. That pretty self explanatory.

What is your explanation for that scene? Why do they show the sparking panel and then show the fire moving along the line and sparks hitting the machinery that explodes if that short wasnt what started it?
