r u fuking serial
This is the perfect example of why the sequels had no soul in them. Boba Fett was meant to be a literal nobody throw-away character, but the fanbase got so attached to him just from his few scenes that George Lucas and others decided to make him into a full character. This trooper gets his own following and none of the writers of the three sequels ever make even a slight nod to it.
Then again, people legitimately enjoyed Finn's character but the writers refused to acknowledge him as a main hero in place of forcing Rey down our throats.
Are you actually serious? That was one of the best parts of the PS2 game.
Emblematic of everything this game lacks. It's not much of a Star Wars game. It's just a mindless LEGO collectathon in a bunch of boring as shit open world maps.
Finn deserves his own spinoff desu but I doubt John Boyega will ever do another SW movie after how Disney fucked him to sell more bugmen tickets
Disney's version of that was hyping up phasma coming back for episode 8 and making her job even more laughably than in 7.
>White Woman makes things worse for Black Man
Not surprising
Finn really surprised tons of people. Let's be real, most of us thought he was just a diversity push MC. It turned out he was the exact opposite, it was just Rey being the diversity push. Finn had amusing scenes, actually broke the whole trend of Star Wars heroes being chosen one's, or related to powerful people, etc. He struggled to use a lightsaber and felt like a real next generation character from the Star Wars movie reacting to shit. The second movie and onward screwed him because the writers wanted to fight "sexism" happening with their baby.
his dialogue in TFA was just standard MCU quipshit, and felt completely out of place in Star Wars
The sequels hyped up countless things they dropped or half-assed. Remember the Knights of Ren? Completely forgotten in the second movie, lazy brought back for a bit in the third. Fucking Snoke was just a stand-in for the first 2 movies. God, Snoke's use was aweful.
and let's not forget
>m-muh pawputin is back!!!! LOOK GUYS, HES BACK!!! h-how? shut up!
John seriously need better acting tips or direct help with his overall performance. Then again it's clear he was treated as a throwaway character from the start.
>Have a female character with a sick design
>First female villain in the movies
>Turn her into a one-scene joke for 3 movies straight
How fucking retarded do they have to be to not capitalize on her. She's literally FREE diversity points just being left on the table
The B2 battle droid is bugged. I'm so pissed off.
that's what you get when you just throw the first movie at a guy infamous for refusing to plan ahead.
That's because JJ and Rian were actively trying to sabotage each other.
>caring about nu-wars
One has to remember that he wasn't some disciplined Jedi (Obi, Qui-Gon, etc.) an extremely humble MC (Luke), a cocky and hardened bounty hunter (Han Solo), or a badly written edgelord (young Annie) we've seen before. He was just some random storm strooper in his early twenties. The first scenes of him being dumbfounded by all these stuff make sense, especially with how he thought the force could just be harnessed to turn the war at will.
Maybe I'm being way too nice to the character, but I'm just incredibly upset how much they wasted things that could have been good...
because the hour long danceathon at the end is more important
don't forget how it was hijacked by politics by the second movie. Second movie literally had people in the production team saying shit like "THE FORCE IS FEMALE" and then we got pink hair.
I care about all the potential that was flushed down the toilet, not the actual product we got
Maybe you should learn to read, faggot. We only care about how it could have been good, not what it is. Do you think people enjoyed TLOU2 when they complain about how shit it was? What about every other game or movie sequel that turned out bad? Don't be retarded.
I'm more talking about his lines like when he hits on Rey that just felt out of place in the universe. Luke was a naive young idiot and he didn't talk like that.
I guess it could be better. It can still be justified as him being a young adult who doesn't even talk to girls outside of the chrome bitch. Also, he's black.
They made TR-8R a member of Finn's squad during training and did nothing with it. He could have been Finn's rival throughout the sequels, replacing Phasma due to her embarrassing failures and general incompetence.
Then we got Rian. Though I doubt JJ would have done anything with it.
The fucking Magnaguard has maybe the longest quest in the game. It's my most wanted figure too dude.
How the fuck do I unlock the Senate Guard? Also I hope people here know about the droid shop in Coruscant
TR-8R could have been like a Terminator character for Finn, someone he kept losing to but slowly got better at matching, eventually taking him out during the third movie. Imagine if he did replace Phasma though, after showing her up during one of the fights or something.
Imagine if the damages from the grenade launcher had him return with some upgraded and android-like looking armor. Dude had so much potential. It's proof you can't manufacture a Boba Fett. The fans chose Boba and then chose TR-8R, but the writers of the sequels were arrogant enough to ignore that. They wanted THEIR ideas to work.
Based
My game is bricked (haha). Crashed during the loading for The Hunt for Jango and now the quest won't show up.
I've looked everywhere for it. I'm pretty sure I've been it it too but there's no one to talk to to buy the B2 battle droid. This is driving me nuts bro.
There is some serious alt-tabing problems with this game.
Why do I have a feeling if they did do that people in here whould say stuff like "cringe reddit pandering omg le spinnerino soldier!!"
anyway it's not the same situation since boba fett was a distinct character while the trooper was one of many
>7: Boring rehash that explains little
>8: Terrible movie that feels like it was written by someone who actively dislikes the IP
>9: Full retarded
The ST fucking sucked.
>Finn really surprised tons of people
Me included. Finn didn’t blow me away, but he was somehow the best of the new characters in 7. Kylo Ren has grown on me a bit, but I’ve always found him hard to take seriously. Meanwhile, Finn was enjoyable for being a genuine screw up who manages to be helpful. Shame that they effectively canned him.
>Why do I have a feeling if they did do that people in here whould say stuff like "cringe reddit pandering omg le spinnerino soldier!!"
because it's literally just the modern day Boba effect at work. Only retards obsessed with whining over reddit would care that much. It didn't even spawn from reddit anyway. He was immediately compared to Phasma because he actually did shit when the movie heavily advertised her and her merch.
what about dameron? (in the 7th movie)
a complete non-character
>Kylo Ren has grown on me a bit, but I’ve always found him hard to take seriously.
It's his helmet removal. Him being an edgy and quick to anger guy absolutely works when he never takes his helmet off. The moment he took it off, it revealed a face people didn't expect him to look like and turned out looking nerdy and tryhard.
From what I remember: too many quips. I’d have to rewatch for a deeper analysis, but I don’t think I could get through it. I do remember him being “the bad guy” for questioning the “brilliant leader” Holdo, in a conflict that was completely unnecessary.
Never mind. You said 7. I’m running on fumes, user. Might also be retarded.
not as many quips as in the other 2 films, but I don't remember much as well
he was too edge lord but I did like Adam's non generic look
This is the worst shilling I've ever seen here. It's fucking insane that there's a single person on this board who isn't calling this shit out, let alone a whole thread of people falling hook, line and sinker for this blatant shilling. The average IQ of this board must be below 80.
I really wanted Finn to be the MC of the sequel trilogy back when it was announced.
They made it seem that way at first too.
He was the first face we saw in the teaser trailer, and he was holding the lightsaber in much of the promotional posters and trailers.
Then the movie came out and it's Rey/Luke-Skywalker II.
It's such a shame really, because just the concept of a Storm Trooper turned Jedi was RIGHT THERE and would've made for a great story.
It should've been a no brainer to anyone with competent writing skills.
Abrams is a fucking hack.
(you)
I've been calling out these threads all week. But frankly, I think my job is done at this point. The game is bad and most people see how deeply inferior it is to previous LEGO Star Wars games at this point, so the marketers have nothing left to say. Not to mention, these LEGO games are very much baby tier and not that many people are falling for the shill bullshit anyway.
I want a big expansive star wars game but not fucking legos. Star wars is the most mishandled franchise in the history of gaming.
no am fuking ur mom
>Then the movie came out and it's Rey/Luke-Skywalker II.
Please, Luke's actor wish it was that. He was so disappointed when it turned out he would be jobbing for Rey. He even expressed his disappointment in some interviews. Guy said he went to the gym just to get back in shape for the movie, only to find out he wasn't doing anything. They turned Luke into a milk drinking joke.
>It's such a shame really, because just the concept of a Storm Trooper turned Jedi was RIGHT THERE and would've made for a great story.
It would've absolutely have been. The idea that not only an "evil" storm trooper could make a change, but the idea that literally anyone who knew the difference from right and wrong could be a hero. They instead went with destiny and powerful bloodlines all over again. Rey was related to a super powerful Sith and the force CHOSE her to make the change. Pic related was aweful.
This. Playing this just makes me want a proper huge open world Star Wars game.
wait...so is the lego star wars game actually good then?
>someone who dislikes the ip
i didnt know someone actually trying to do something new with the ip is disliking it
i guess the prequels were made by people who hate star wars too
hyperspace kamikaze is the only thing 8 did wrong and i will stand by that. i do not understand the lack of lenience (with the expansion of possibilities and ideas for the universe) for tlj in particular. the casino is a perfect example; no one complains about mos eisley fuckery in ep 4, podracing in ep 1, 90% of episode 2, or the ewok bullshit in ep 6 nearly as much as i see complaints about the casino in 8.
tl;dr: 8 is the best star wars since the ot, and the only reason you hate it is OLD THING GOOD NEW THING BAD
I've just been there and bought droids up to droideka, you should just able to walk up to the droid you want and just buy it
Personally I like it, theres many aspects of it that I wish was just its own game like bounty hunting
The third movie ends with Finn beating him, but having grown as a Jedi, and understanding that the Storm Troopers themselves aren't problem, but the system that indoctrinates them, he spares TR-8R. This leaves room for the myriad of spin off books and material starring TR-8R, as he breaks away from The First Order/Empire, and becomes an anti-hero.
IT WRITES ITSELF. IT'S BOBA FETT 2.0, LIKE THE GUY SAID.
>Can buy capital ships
>No Venator or Dreadnought
>Two Death Stars
Love the game but I do not understna d that decision at all.
>OLD THING GOOD NEW THING BAD
I don’t have the energy to do an in-depth criticism of the shitshow, but you know that’s a lazy write-off of common complaints. I‘ll leave it at “I disagree”. Maybe another user has the time.
>i didnt know someone actually trying to do something new with the ip is disliking it
The most fucking mid-wit take about TLJ imaginable. "It's about moving away from the old systems, and starting something new!" EXCEPT THAT WAS RETURN OF THE JEDI. This movie destroyed Luke to teach him a lesson he learned in the last movie he starred in.
>TR-8R's first spin-off is about him still trying to fight a war that's already over, because all he knows is combat.
>he eventually goes into bounty hunter business and is cold and cruel about everything, killing however he's paid to.
>gets a job to smuggle some royalty or some shit to another planet to be used as a prisoners of war
>gets his humanity back along the way and changes his mind right before handing off the person he was meant to smuggle
>final scene is him removing his helmet to fight Flinn to see who's better, this time as just two guys.
When I said Rey/Luke-Skywalker II I meant that Rey was a retread of luke
>TR-8R and Flinn in post-credits fight scene
It's a lego star wars game, two of the most popular franchises on earth put together.
It shouldn't be surprising that some of the thousands of posters on Yea Forums are gonna be interested.
>TR-8R: It's been a while... traitor.
>scene theme: youtu.be
IMPORTANT QUESTION: Can I play as Moff Jerjerrod? He's my favorite.
