    Why does everybody here complain about the part of the force unleashed where you bring down the star destroyer?Was it not Yoda who said "Size matters not"? Am I missing something?

    I think there should be a limit on what can be moved with the Force.
    What if a character could move a galaxy with the Force? "size matters not", that would seem ridiculous to me.
    The Star Destroyer moving isn't too big of a deal to, it's other stuff.
    I don't like TFU and don't want it as canon.
    I don't really like Starkiller either. Way too over powered.




    I can see a Star Destroyed moved, but it should NOT be easy or common.

    There are various ways to look at it:

    He brings down a Star Destroyer from orbit - that's a problem, it's overkill.

    He moves a Star Destroyer enough to put it past the gravitational point of no return - better, but still overkill.

    As to the problem, it's a crudely flat, literal interpretation of Yoda's statement that sets a problematic precedent for every other story after it.

    TV shows going too far - jumping the shark (Happy Days)

    Movies going to far - nuking the fridge (Indiana Jones)

    Games going to far - dragging the star destroyer (Force Unleashed)

    This isn't really a game thread. Plus it could go in the existing TFU thread.
