    The Return to the Good Star Wars

    Thank you. Your open is much better. As a change to the story: Forget the whole master/padawan attempt between Ahsoka and Sabine. It just doesn't work. A Jedi working with a Mandalorian fits the characters better, provides a better dynamic and makes a better story. A Mandalorian's basic...

    Apparently you can't call out bad business practices on spectrum

    Complaints about Concierge perks has been going on longer and promisses made by CIG to improve Conciere Perks have been going on as long. And, yes, something was taken away from Concierge. Wave One Access for all Concierge members, an advertised perk for spending more than $1000. The number of...

    Apparently you can't call out bad business practices on spectrum

    My point was the perk is one of the advertised benefits of being a Concierge member. so keeping the subscriber perk but not the Concierge perk, which was already set up as wave 1 doesn't make sense. If you're going to downgrade one, downgrade both.

    Backwards. Concierge was Wave 1 PTU long before Subs got that access, which was about 5 years ago.

    Rigged?!?!

    Of course it's rigged.

    The Return to the Good Star Wars

    So, until you've seen it, your opinion as to the merits of the show don't have any meaning. Watch it, then tell me where I got it wrong. And, as a Star Wars fan, you will be asking, by the end of episode 3, what the fuck were they thinking?

    The Return to the Good Star Wars

    My prediction as to what would happen, happened. I'm not alone in that sentiment. Even the biggest fans have complained about the pacing. Have you even watched the first three episodes yet?

    The Return to the Good Star Wars

    The main criticism is that the story, to date, is poorly written, poorly directed, and dismally paced, plus it retcons one of the biggest parts of Star Wars. Given the money Disney doesn't have to spend, Season 2 seems really unlikely. If this were regular TV, and the UK tax credits wouldn't...

    Creatives vs. Engineers

    They didn't last very long before it was decided they didn't look epic enough.

    The Return to the Good Star Wars

    I'm going to elaborate on this. Episode one and two retconned parts of Clone Wars and Rebels, not a big deal for most fans. Episode 3 retconned one of the most important parts of all 9, not just the first 6, of the base movies, the Clone Wars, Kenobi and Rebels.

    Creatives vs. Engineers

    You came out of the elevator entered an alcove with the ship terminals, which was directly attached to an area similar to the main hall of the "Galleria" area with the main level and an upper level. The Rest Stops were smaller than Port O but were designed to be expanded with a cargo handling...

    The Return to the Good Star Wars

    1.2m US households release plus 5. Comparing Apples to Apples, on par with Andor, half of Kenobi, less than Mandalorian Season 3 and Boba Fett. Nobody has any idea where Disney got that number but the claim is most on Disney that week. You left out Episode 3 retconned the entire IP.

    Creatives vs. Engineers

    It was the video that introduced the new stations. The shops were in the "Rest Stops." In fact the interior layout of the "Rest Stops" were better and more logically laid out than they are now.

    Creatives vs. Engineers

    SC isn't even an inch deep and It is entirely repetitive. The statement when the stations were redone was "because the stations didn't look epic enough."

    Creatives vs. Engineers

    No, I'm talking about feature creap. For example, moving from the original "rest stops" to the bigger and grander stations we have now. From the ground bases we have in Stanton to the ground bases we have been shown for Pyro. Taking Pyro from the uninhabitable system it was, to the way it...

    Creatives vs. Engineers

    The ooh shiny I was referring to is the feature creep and ever shifting priorities.

    Creatives vs. Engineers

    Here is the biggest problem, imho, they are using the "ooh shiny" method of development. the second biggest problem is they have no clear definition of what finished or even beta looks like.

    Next year is much more likely than December.

    I don't recall them saying next, but it is an obvious choice. You need Nyx to connect to Odin, which is probably done but I doubt we'll see it before SQ42 is released.

    I'm going to need my Liberator sooner, instead of later. :)
