See any of that would've been reasonable, but what we got was George Lucas not knowing how to write dialogue and trying to play into an already established story. Everyone already knows Obi-Wan was going to win because he shows up in the next movie. Just one of many reasons the prequels focused on all the wrong things in the rise of Darth Vader. Sand anyone? It's course and rough and gets everywhere, but forced dialogue will make it shine
Well, I'm already killing Luke and Leia since they're in Padme's womb on board that ship I blew up to strand Obi-Wan there. I think maybe, instead of killing Obi-Wan, I'd have Obi-Wan go into hiding instead of confronting Anakin, given how much the Jedi are being massacred at that point. Then Anakin gets his wounds because those Trade Federation guys brought bodyguards who managed to wound Anakin severely, though Anakin would kill everyone before limping off to his ship and flying back to Coruscant. And then maybe I'd skip the part where the Emperor tells Anakin he killed his family. Anakin asks, "Where is Padme?" when he wakes up in the suit. Emperor says, "I don't know. I wanted to have her here for you when you woke up, but when the escort got to her chambers, she was gone. Couldn't find a trace of her." Also if you're going to comment on "escort" just remember that it refers to more than high-class prostitutes. Also I'd consider frequently slapping George Lucas in the face with a rolled up script and saying, "No." every time he tries to have an idea. The original three were good because the cast and crew were very open with how terrible they thought Lucas' ideas were and they forced him to acquiesce. IIRC, Harrison Ford did a LOT of trash-talking of Lucas' script. And then the prequels sucked because the new generation was so reverent of Lucas they didn't tell him his ideas sucked.
Here's a fun tidbit about that. Lucas actually sought out help to write the prequels, knowing full well that he was lacking. But pretty much got turned down on the basis that it was his vision and no one wanted to meddle with it. Having complete ownership of the brand backfired in an odd way. People didn't want to "taint" his masterpiece, so he was left alone to do them. Hence, the prequels.
Sweet jesus what's been going on in here. People complaining about GW and George Lucas instead of Abs speach writer!? Could everybody stop staring into the warp; it's screwing with your minds and driving you insane
The funtime currents only explode your head in a happy way. Happy madness is much easier to live with than salty madness
this at first glance minor issue actually betrays a far bigger issue; the way they approach this game. to me it makes the following impression: they are all over the place breathing life into the game, let it gain momentum, so everyone must be busy as hell. its hectic, everybody is swamped and there are a million things on the to do list. then somewhere down the week at a groupmeeting someone said:'oh, also, campaign no2 is to be implemented, we need texts fillers/descriptions for those!' And then someone volunteered to do it, or got appointed to the minor task. And thats where they fucked up. Maybe some of you have worked in a kitchen, or in a hotel? people services in general? I have, at the highest level, and when it gets insane busy and hectic, exactly then, you keep an extra eye on minor details because its then when the danger of fucking up is highest. At first glance you could say: oh come on, it's a fucking line of text in a campaign, whats the big deal, this is jsut whining! Except that it isnt. These kind of issues represent a bigger flawed approach. It's about the principle, and I've learned so far in my working life that presentation is EVERYTHING. Now there's plenty of lore things you cant change because it's a game, and thats fine. I bet if you count lsm player death's it would translate to a loss of life of at least 50% of all existing astartes, there's no IG to be seen and regular orks can go toe to toe with space marines....its a game, not a 40k simulator. But whenever you can, stay true to that vibe of 40k and dont go: 'muahaha im in mah secret evil fortress and mah minions have watched the evil warpcurrents! let's jump in the evilmobile and prepare for....evil!' So it seems like a minor issue at first hand, but after having explained my pov, i hope some can understand the bigger picture why this bugs me, this line of text should never have slipped through.
oh btw, im no native english speaker (SHOCKING, RIGHT?) but here's the text from SM: 'we must win this coming ...., or risk the entire crusade.' shouldnt there be a word following 'coming'?
I noticed that too - but you can have a coming. So technically it isn't wrong. But yeah I think someone missed a word or two and got lucky in that what he wrote he can technically call correct. Meh LSM talk stupidly all the time so maybe it's genuine
