15 years after the launch of Star𝔍 Wars: The Force Unleashed, franchise fans are once again at war - this time, it's over whether the game's protagonist is ac🍎tually cool or just a vessel for overpowered fanservice.

The debate stems from a clip that went viral on Twitter, showing Starkiller - the game's protagonist - exploding with Force energy and causing a battalion of stormtroop🌠ers to disintegrate. The user who posted the clip, dyingscribe, adde🔯d that "I'd be way more into Star Wars if they did more shit like Starkiller in the movies."

, "people are still debating whether Kylo Ren stopping a phaser blast with the force or Leia surviving in a vacuum 🌳for a few seconds was to🌺o OP for Star Wars; nerds would probably burn down theaters if you put this guy in a movie."

Or, to put it a more , "right because using the Force to disintegrate legions of stormtroopers is exactly what Star Wars is all about and totally not the antithesis of what they preach in the films." On a similar note, another "every day it becomes more obvious that George Lucas was the goat precisely because he didn&rsq🍰uo;t listen to fans."

The Force Unleashed, originally released in 2008, lived up to its title by giving you an array of Force powers far more🍨 powerfu༒l than anything that had been depicted in the movies up to that point. The game's most heavily-marketed scene had you ripping a Star Destroyer out of the sky - and, honestly, it's not too dissimilar to scenes that have appeared in Obi-Wan and The Rise of Skywalker.

𝓰Most of the pro-Starkiller arguments come down to some variation of 'yeah it was dumb but it was cool.' I think I'm generally𝕴 on the side that Starkiller is a bit too much of an edgelord fantasy to be worth bringing back, but then I see how we "need Bollywood level Star Wars movies" and I'm starting to think I might be on board.

"Like man can we AT THE VERY LEAST get a remake of The Force Unleashed?" asks. "With like PS5 graphics and stuff… I’m not tripping on not getting a third game at this point but like sheesh. Show Starkiller some love Disney."

There actually is a deep cut reference to Theꦫ Force Unleashed in Andor, though that's more of an example of how much the franchise loves its Easter eggs than an indication that Starkiller himself is being brought back into canon. The Knights of the Old Republic remake certainly indicates that the license holders are interested in keeping beloved old materials alive, but 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:that game's reported delays suggest that it might♈ not be layi🐻ng a blueprint for success.

The funny thing about all this is that the scene that's courted all this controversy doesn't even appear in t𒀰he game. It was part of a for The Force Unleashed 2. Can we really have a canon debate over something that was never canon in the first place?
