Author	Topic: Are you sick of the Core Worlds?

	I admit, I am. I don't think that they are representative of the Star Wars I know. That is of the free, wild, and untamed Outer Rim territories or the planets that were newly settled along with filled with life. Coruscant has, in Star Wars, always represented the rot of the Old Republic or the evil of the Empire. Should we really give a crap what happens to it?

	Maybe it's just me, but it seems like there are more unique planets in the Outer and Mid rims than in the Core area. I get kind of sick of the Corulags and Commenors, which don't have much to them geography or species-wise. Speaking of which, why are there so many darned planets that begin with a C in the Core? -----signature----- SAN HILL LIVES!

	Core worlds are all right. But I do prefer the wild frontier-like outer worlds, like Charlemagne describes it. There's more feel of adventure. The core worlds are good for showing why the outer regions are so much more preferable and exciting. -----signature----- Waru's Sword of Truth RebelMollom of The Kind

	Yeah, I'm definitely tired of them. "Oh no! Another enemy is going to try to attack Coruscant... again! It's the end of the world!" By now I think if you're still living there, you must be suicidal. The movies showed us that Coruscant mostly ignored the concerns of the outer-rim planets, like Naboo and Tattoine, whether the Republic or Empire was in charge. I'd like to see the heroes show that they care about the "minor and outlying" worlds as well as the "significant" ones, at least the Jedi since all life should be important to them. Have Luke finally go back to Tattoine, and fix its problems once and for all.

	Here's the thing...I think the Core Worlds of which you speak are not representational of the "Core Worlds" of Lore. Coruscant being the lone exception. Places like Corellia are rogue independent bodies, who don't fit the "Core World" mystic, though the maps place them in the stellar region. Personally, I'd love to see tales about Denon, Commenor, Corulag, Chandrila...places that the name if often dropped...but we never really visit. so in a way...I'm tired of the core worlds...we frequent...I desperately want to see the others. -----signature----- So Devaronian females are suppose to have thick fur, eh? Has anyone seen one outside an essential guide? ... When even the creative teams refuse to make fuzzy Devaronians...it should be a clue, folks. Thus endeth the lesson.

	Coruscant should not take such a huge center stage like it does in LOTF. The PT and the Bantam books, hell, even the NJO did the smart thing by making it being the base of opperations and jump-off point for adventures. But it should not be the focus like it is in LOTF, that just makes it over-used and doesn't make a crisis on Coruscant as dramatic as it otherwise would be. -----signature----- My Icons: http://www.powow.com/thrawnrocks/icons.html Roan Fel's badassery knows no bounds.

	When have we ever seen enough of the Core Worlds to get sick of them?

That's one of the reasons why I liked the idea of the GA capital moving to Denon post-NJO, I was hoping we'd get to see some action in a brand new locale with less of an emphasis on the overdone Coruscant. But instead we get everyone back on a Coruscant that's already been mostly rebuilt a scant five years after the Vong turned it into Yuuzhan'tar. -----signature----- What can I say?

	000 posted: When have we ever seen enough of the Core Worlds to get sick of them? You mean like 3 movies focused on Coruscant? A Corellian Trilogy and a 9 book series where large parts of the books are set on Corellia that's not on Coruscant? Uhh...yeah, yeah I think we have.

	Well, then clearly we ought to be sick of the Rim, too, what with the oft-bemoaned focus on Tatooine, Yavin IV, and a few other select locales.

	Yeah, for "the planet it's farthest from", Tatooine sure is popular. -----signature----- His legions, angel forms, who lay entranced.
