Fanclub Galen Marek Fanclub: The Starkiller Alliance.

Tks Sey,

Since the FU2 is out and has been for a bit it would be a good time to talk about the Force Unleash, the Ultimate Sith Edition and of course FU2. Unfortunately I have only read the books as of the moment and seen hundreds of clips so here's a question I have for everyone...if Galen was to appear in the current Star Wars timeline how would you want him to be represented? Would he appear as a jedi to help Luke? As a new sith lord to carry on Vader's legacy? Perhaps something neither light or dark. Also where would he have been doing all this time and where has he been hiding and why?

Honestly I think the best thing would be for him to be dead but it would also be very nice to see him face off against Luke the hero of the rebellion vs the founder of the rebellion. Another thing mentioned earlier if Vader had a single secret apprentice why couldn't he have more after all Starkiller was only a pawn to his plans so I can see him having many more "apprentices". I could also see Palpatine trying to get rid of Vader by taking his own "secret apprentices" thus Vader would constantly be proving himself worthy of his position. Palpatine and Vader as equals unable to destroy the other and as such Vader unable to prove himself as the "Master".

After all we know that Palpatine wanted Luke to take Vader's place and has only ever encourage those strong in the force to claim their "rightful" place by killing the weaker apprentice and becoming his new apprentice. I also hate that all the dark side endings seem to be the "best" ending but the light side endings are always made cannon.

END TRANSMISSION

 

I don't know if this thread is still going or not. It looks rather vacant. But Starkiller has become one of my favorite EU characters of all time. I read both novels and played the first game, and he is such a cool character. Many stories start with a good guy gone bad, or a good guy that is an underdog. But few have an extremely powerful bad guy who becomes the hero! And his character development was great! This guy is so cool!

 

I didn't get the sense that he threw it. Starkiller is just that good. And Vader can't take the heat (Sith lightening heat that is).

 

Ah. Well with video games with multiple possible endings, how do we know which one is canon? Is the novel canon? Darkside ending? Lightside ending?

 

TFU 3.

 

No wonder your icon is Starkiller himself! Heh-heh.

My brother has TFU, but not TFU 2 or The Ultimate Sith Edition. I really liked the charcacter, and after I played it the first time, I actually made up a story about his children!

 

With Star Wars: Rebels coming out soon, I was wondering what fans who are familiar with The Force Unleashed video game series might believe it will do to the canon of the game. I am a huge fan of the first game; it had a great story and had the heart of the original series. Specifically the title character of Galen Marek portrayed an evolution of a character who makes the rare switch from sith to jedi. I suppose I do not want to read that because of "Rebels" the story of TFU never happened. Thoughts?

 

It's under the Legends banner, and even before that we were told that the formation of the Rebellion seen in Clone Wars took precedent over that in The Force Unleashed.

 

Problem is - it wasn't till much later that we were told that the Onderon Rebels, who fight the Separatists, are the people who first formed the Rebellion.

 

Hi Dreilide, welcome to the boards - the Saga forum is, for the most part, a 'movies only' (Eps I-VI) discussion forum, and canon debates aren't permitted or relevant, so I'll move this over to the EU Community forum.

 

Merged with our existing Galen Marek/TFU fanclub and unlocked.

 

Oh, this exists? Cool. Well I guess I'm a Galen Marek fan, too.

 

It's been locked for some time, but Dreilide's post gave me reason to unlock it.

 

When is this?

 

Oh okay! I really wasn't sure, thanks for letting me know!

 

Yes, I was wondering the same thing?

 

I think it was an online tweet about it possibly. Either way, it wasn't obvious from the episode itself.

 

Dear God! A thread for liking this character actually exists.

I am amazed.

 

Star Wars and the EU in particular is an amazing thing, with amazing places, characters and technology. Most importantly it has amazing fans who all find their own favorites in the galaxy far far away.

Remember to use the edit feature folks, to avoid double posting.

 

How did Galen Marek manage to defeat Palpatine at the end of the game, isn't Palpatine meant to be uber powerful? Or is he not as good as he was in ROTS?

Or did they nerf Galen Marek up for the game?

 

Palpatine was probably pulling the same stunt he did in ROTS and pretending to be "out of power".
