LoZ: The godess are aliens that used their terraforming machine to fuck up the land multiple time and the hyrulean are clones stored in said device.

Also alien are canon and the triforce seems to also be a device that goes into other universe and is also a terraforming device in those.

Obviously OP is being cheeky, but perhaps he means games where you're the protagonist and you think you're in the right to do what you're doing, but actually you're evil

I know there's been a couple JRPGs like this but usually it's the "I was tricked into doing this" or "I have amnesia" or whatever, instead of say "Both sides are equally entitled to their vengeance but two wrongs don't make a right, but they do make a fucking awesome battle"

I'm actually moving to New Zealand in a year or two to get away from the USA

Canada is slowly getting infected with your privatized nonsense, and Harper sold off half of the country to you guys as fast as he could.

USA is ruining Canada and treating it like its little brother's piggy bank.

Your Country is shit and its slowly infecting out Country with shit.
Harper signing an agreement that allows USA to draft Canadians if they start a war they can't finish was the last straw for me, and its also the reason why I'll never join the Canadian military.

One of these days the USA is going to start the wrong war and some little shit country will just fire a fucking nuke, and I don't want to be around for that.

I have been hearing an interesting interpretation on MGSPW where that was the game where Big Boss was going evil but the story didn't tell you(except for the ending part). Since he was getting help from Amanda's crew who do use child soldiers and drugs.

Haha I'm talking about things that actually happened - the U.S. Supreme Court allows nazis to protest even though nearly everyone thinks they're human trash, whereas Canada has the sort of hate speech laws Europeans love, because freedom of speech isn't necessary for groups whose opinions are almost universally reviled.

I think we also have less stringent anti-loli laws than you.

Not as much as Canada would, though.
It won't be able to stand on its own for long, and it would possibly lead to the next world war as more aggressive countries realize its no longer protected by the U.S.

Master Obi-Wan is considered the most proficient user of the Soresu Lightsaber Form of his era. Soresu is a highly defensive form that relies upon the use of terrain and favorable environments to create a sort of impenetrable defense in combat, wearing their opponent down until they leave an opening wide enough for the Soresu user to exploit.

After their protracted battle Obi-Wan had managed to conserve his energy, while Anakin, a noted user of the more aggressive Form V, or Shien, had wasted his energy trying to force openings in Obi-Wan's superior defense. When Obi-Wan took the high ground, he created an effectively impenetrable defense for himself, guaranteeing that the exhausted Anakin could not attack him without leaving a potentially fatal opening. Anakin refused to surrender, and his vicious assault was easy for Obi-Wan to predict and counter, severing three of the fallen Jedi's limbs in the process. The fight was effectively over as soon as Kenobi took the high ground because of the certainty of that outcome. That is what he meant.

After seeing some Eastarwars gameplay with Vader and other lightsaber wielders, it's kind of sad that the effort probably won't get put into a singleplayer game.

It would be pretty cool to play through something like a more condensed version of The Clone Wars TV show. Play through the story from various perspectives, be able to walk around areas and interact with NPCs, be able to create and customize a character.

They could do something like let the Clones/Ranged characters be the FPS sections and the Jedi/Sith/Melee characters can go about twirling their weapons, doing acrobatics and force stuff.

It could go from the start of The Clone Wars up to the point where Anakin loses his fight to Obi-Wan and becomes Darth Vader (which is where the CGI show should have ended).

>This was beautiful poetry. The love and attention to detail that George Lucas and the rest of the artists who created these movies put into telling the story of two generations of the Skywalker family is truly a marvel Thank you for putting these scenes together to demonstrate this. May the Force be with you and hopefully the upcoming new generation of the Star Wars Saga pays just as much tribute to the original and prequel trilogies as this video so wonderfully demonstrates.

>They don't just rhyme, but they also mirror. You notice that in a lot of these parallels you point out characters are moving in, facing, or positioned opposite from each other. In most of the R2-D2 scenes he's facing one direction in the prequel version and facing the opposite in the other. Luke's speeder is moving towards the left while Anakin's is moving towards the right. The Chancellor Swings his chair to the left while the Emperor Swings his chair to the right. Anakin is always on the right when kissing Padme and Han is always on the left when kissing Leia. As described in Mike Kilmo's Star Wars Ring Theory Article the prequels don't just parallel the Originals, but mirror them to create a circle. Their story runs in reverse from the Originals with Episode II pretty much Episode V in reverse. Whether you liked the Prequels, or not you can't question the amount of the thought and detail that went into their creation in respect to the Original Trilogy.

Its just a coincidence that America only picks on severely underdeveloped countries then right?

They could totally take on real countries if they wanted to, they just don't feel like it

USA is the school yard bully of the world, he picks on the weak little kids and people with disabilites, but stays away from people that developed properly because he knows he's actually a pretty big bitch despite his big talk and doesn't want to get his shit pushed in in front of all the people he has convinced that he's a badass
