Why wouldn't you be a Sith? They do seem much stronger.
Darth Maul took 2 supreme Jedis to take him down.
Dooku actually beat 2 supreme Jedis, including one with one of the highest midichlorian counts ever
Palpatine managed to go unnoticed by the Jedis at the height of their powers, right under their very noses. He outfought Windu and Yoda and was also wiser than Yoda
Vader goes without saying
Why wouldn't you be a Sith?
>>64077695
if the movies had portrayed the sacrificing of your body and spirit in order to use the dark side it would have made more sense to not go with it, sadly it didn't and instead it showed everyone that with it you get to shoot lightning from your fingers, choke people regardless of how far away they were and generally just be stronger than anyone
>>64077695
Because there is no using the dark side, it uses you. Still I'd be game to conquer the force in its entirety and be apart of a new third party.
>>64077695
>Why wouldn't you be a Sith?
bad for your health
dunno
>>64077695
Because I'd eventually feel bad about being a self-centered prick and being told to kill and abuse people all the time by my psychopath mentor.
>>64077695
>Why wouldn't you be a Sith? They do seem much stronger.
THAT'S LITERALLY WHY THE DARK SIDE EXISTS. THEY MENTION THIS OVER AND OVER AGAIN.
dunno
Oh yeah I can't wait to be guaranteed stabbed to death by my apprentice in the future.
Why not join a street gang, too?
>>64077695
Because the Sith are primarily concerned with isolated, personal power in the service of insatiable material want, at the coat or massive loss of human life and the creation of suffering.
The dark Side is literally everything bad about the force and nothing more.
>>64077695
Because they lost. Because the Sith lose every single time.
I hope the new trilogy introduces some morally grey jedi like Katarn.
Because Siths are always angry, scared, etc.
Jedi are at peace.
>>64077695
Can one be a Sith AND good?
>>64081065
Katarn is not morally grey. He's a good guy through and through.
>>64081006
Getting killed by your apprentice actually seems like a pretty nice way to die to me.
>get to fight your personally trained student in a final battle to the death
>test his limits properly as you go all-out on each other
>when you die, you die knowing you've done a good job
>>64081158
That's not how it works. Sheev killed his master while he was sleeping.
>>64081190
Well...
That does sound kind of shitty.
>>64081158
>when you die, you die knowing you've done a good job
At what, creating a selfish prick?
>>64081216
Yeah, no one said he has to face you in honorable combat. He just has to kill you.
>>64081031
Jedi get destroyed on a regular basis too
>>64081227
Sith are all about being selfish pricks.
i'd rather be a mandalorian
>>64077695
I would be a sith. I'm an emotionally and mentally unstable asshole and would be easily seduced by the potential to have power and control over others. I wouldn't be capable of becoming a jedi.
>>64077695
Because there are cooler lightsaber colors than red
just imagine if the Sith had an entire Order? jedi would get blown the fuck out
>>64081353
Exactly. How could a selfish prick enjoy being usurped, especially by someone who specifically does not want you in power?
You would have to have compassion to be proud of your successor.
>>64081414
>jedi: blue, green, yellow, purple
>sith: red
I agree, the colors seem pretty unevenly distributed.
>>64081435
they wouldn't though. the jedi are enemy to the sith, but ultimately a sith's worst enemy is himself and those around him
>>64077695
If Sith had Orange, Red, Yellow lightsabers and Jedi had Blue, Green and Purple and it wasn't so obviously good vs evil shit then Star Wars would be better.
>>64081435
The Rule of Two was established partially because when there are a bunch of Sith running around, they tend to step on each others toes and fall all over themselves with infighting, plots and bickering. The Sith were once fairly evenly matched with the Jedi, but Sheev and his succession of apprentices were able to destroy them.
>>64081086
Possibly.
As far as I can tell, Sith aren't supposed to be directly evil as much as they're supposed to be free spirits.
Their selfishness seems to come from the fact that they're supposed to be free to follow their personal ambitions and passions. If what they want happens to be bad for others, then that's just too bad.
>>64081372
This
>>64077695
>supreme Jedis
What the fuck is that supposed to mean?
>They do seem much stronger.
"Seem."
Darth Maul was beaten by a Padawan.
Dooku used underhanded tactics, otherwise Yoda would have beaten him.
Palpatine only survived Windu because of Anakin.
Vader was beaten once by Obi-Wan because of overconfidence. He only killed him with their next encounter because Obi-Wan allowed himself to be killed.
They're not stronger, just more aggressive.
>>64081512
>Yellow
Not a Sith, but does Yun count?
>>64081190
>implying Darth Plagueis isn't Snoke and still alive
To me, the Sith seem more like regular people, while the Jedi are like creepy cultists that kidnap children.
Meh
>>64082787
>implying disney writers are going to bother with nerd shit like darth plagays
>>64077695
>Why wouldn't you be a Sith?
Because you don't want to kill younglings.
>>64081277
The Jedi numbered in the thousands and ruled the galaxy for over 1000 years. The Sith ruled for 20 years and got BTFO by a lone half-trained Jedi.
>>64083005
>regular people
Because being a mandalorian is so much cooler.
>>64083005
from my point of view you are correct.
>>64083005
Sheev is definitely the kind of guy you could sit down and have a beer with.
>>64081631
In the Bane books it seemed like the place was pretty tame and controlled with more passive aggressive fights than all out shouting matches
>>64084271
way to state the obvious nigga
>>64077695
The problem is that sooner or later, you will die, and end up in a literal Hell.
No power is worth it.
>>64084271
>ywn go to the opera with Sheev
jdimsa
>>64077812
Well, you can use the Dark Side powers, such as force choke and force lightning without actually becoming consumed by it, as Luke Skywalker has shown in the canon and Kyle Katarn in, unfortunately, non-canon now.
>>64077695
>>64077812
>>64077843
>>64077947
>>64081414
>>64081697
>>64085114
>>64085092
The sith are power-hungry maniacs who WILL betray you when you're least expecting it
You can even use lightning as a jedi
>Why to be a Sith
So you can fall in love and not have pedo priests wagging their finger/claw/tentacle at you.
>Reminder that Jedi were only forbidden from love so the Masters got exclusive rights to their pupil's orifices
Jedi = natty
Sith = roids
>>64077695
>He outfought Windu
No he didn't.
>>64081158
>we metabarons now
They need a Jedi that dresses in all black and picks a red saber but isn't a dark side user and does it to be edgy
>>64086956
>millunniom falcon
I was gonna say this is a shit list, but it must be satire.
>>64077695
because in the end, they lose
>>64087294
>millunniom
Better to reign in hell, and all that.
>Grow up as a Jedi
>Finish your training, become Jedi Knight
>Tell the order "I don't think this is for me, I'm leaving"
>Go do your own thing in a huge galaxy while having force powers too
Dooku and Ahsoka had the right idea. Well Dooku did until he went Sith but until then he was just an ex-jedi and there were zero consequences for that.
In TCW Obi-wan even considers leaving the order for his Mandalorian waifu.
>>64077695
Because the Sith represent egoism, cruelty, hatred, violence and fear.
>>64084086
did you even played the old republic?
the thing is that jedi/sith come and go by cycles, the force is an equilibrium, you cannot destroy the light but you can't banish the shadows either
The way I see it, Jedi = order, Sith = chaos. You see the Jedi as the good guys, but without the dark side to mix things up, the world would stagnate.
I'm probably wrong, I don't know the lore all that well.
>>64085114
>Taking EU shitters as canon
the whole point of Luke using Force Choke and wearing black was to show he was veering close to the dark side
That shot of Luke reflecting on having a metal hand just like Vader wasn't just a coincidence, anon.
what i don't understand is why you couldn't just use the ways of the sith but still make the political/social decisions you want
why do you have to be a cunt to use the dark side of the force
>>64077695
>He outfought Windu
No he didn't. Windu had him pinned against a wall and was reflecting all of his force lightning back at him, then was literally about to deal the finishing blow before Anakin lopped his hand off and Palpatine tossed his ass out the window.
That said, Palpatine is canonically one of the GOAT lightsaber duelists.
>>64087258
Enter Kylo Ren
>>64087992
Either using the force influences your personality, the force is somewhat sentient and seeks out certain types of people to use it, or the dark side just happens to be more attractive to cunts than other people.
>>64087288
How is it shit? What parts of it aren't accurate?
>>64077695
Sith in an egoistical pursuit of UNLIMITED POWER can't ever form an organized structure that won't fall apart while jedi go for strength in numbers. Sith are always more powerful, but jedi always win.
>>64088084
ambiguous but i'll take it for now. i'm a casual star wars fan
>>64077695
Unless the Sith are in power or you're Sheev and can fool the whole Jedi Council, there's a high probability you're going to die
