    Loved this one. Complete and total departure from the story but at a later point than most departures are really possible. One thing I would have personally liked to see as a final twist was make Palpatine reawaken after Plagueis moved to Anakin. There are several possible alternate paths to take it from there, though.

    @mwg500 7 місяців тому +10

    I think Luke and Leia would still rise up and defeat "Anakin Plagueis", and Plagueis would fail to "possess" either of them. But Plagueis still had all his experiments (and Palpatine continued many of them), so a "Snoke" would still come to exist maybe as a new host for Plagueis.

    20:00.....issue here. When Vader returned, even if Plagueis pretended to be Palpatine, Vader could easily sense his master. His dark side energy would be very different, suddenly. Vader should be able to sense the difference. And just because Plageis perfected this transfer, it didn't mean he had any idea how to hide this transfer with another force user. This matter was never addressed.

      Not really. Plaguies essense was mixed with Sidious the moment Plagues infected Sidious.
      And I think that even after the takeover they remained mixed. After all Sidious midichlorians were still alive.
      To me it more seems like you make a person slightly stringer by infecting them (adding the maxichlorians) and then when you take over you are them in all aspects except consciousness.

Assuming Obi-Wan still intending to train Luke to be a Jedi and the Rebellion still pop up out of dissatisfaction and fear with how the Emperor govern.

    Also imagine Plagueous letting Anakin back into his body afterwards waking Ani’s consciousness from the Padme Dream just so he can enter The World Between Worlds would be something to behold ect…. Imagine an alternate universe Palpatine using Sith Lightniyffom 1 of the portals to hurt Anakin still as Vader or Anakin screaming about the Force Visions of Plagueous infiltrating Palpatine’s body ect…… Could you just imagine Anakin wondering if maybe Plagueous is inside him now??? The possibilities with this story are definitely vast for sure.😂😂😂😂

      One of the other What If channels did that one. Palpatine and Plagueis, as Jedi in this timeline, exploit a well known fact about the Sith, which is that the Sith always betray one another. They get the Sith to fight each other by making them think that the other Sith have challenged them to a fight over their seat of power in the galaxy. I think it's called 'What if the Jedi and Sith were switched'.

    One of the better Plagueis stories though I doubt after a while, healing would take years. Plagueis brought back Venamous back again and again, I assume reasonably quickly. If you can do that for the dead, then healing is small fry with practice. Also wisince the midi-chlorians grant a being access to the Force, Plagueis could tell another person's midi-chlorians to cut off access as well or show fake visions or lower the mind defenses so he can control them like that yinchorri. He just didn't have time and was foolish to field test it while dying and not before.

    I wonder if instead of destroying Darth Vader, simply gave him peaceful rest. Revealing himself as plagieus while he was healing Anakin, utterly destroying his inner compass.
    Then offering him peace, to go to sleep and live the life he deserved, only needing to come out when called. His incredible martial skill on tap.
    Become the maxichlorian avatar. All the best hosts in store, or even with alchemy able to be given a new body if it served him.

      ​@@debutriah2854 Sith Lords are superior to Jedi in every way, in philosophy and in power. The Jedi teachings are irresponsible, they are nothing more than oppressive doctrines made to create religious fanatics.
      The Sith at least practice freedom, they don't HAVE to do anything, they aren't servants to any blind or stupid code. They are allowed to feel, to be angry, to be vengeful, they are allowed to be human, that's why they will always be better than the Jedi.

    What I hate about "bleeding cristals", is that it unsurprisingly breaks another original cannon lore, how the banished dark jedi got their lightsabers? In the original EU it was synthetic cristals, and it was a good explanation, but now somehow they had cristals or something? Or disney just ignores that part to fit their low effort fanfic?

    And Palatine is left trembling in fear and shock that his master could still had that much power behind and that his master could still kill him.

    I would think that believing that Padme had forgiven and absolved him would allow Anakin to be at peace enough for the wild card to come into play... As Anakin prepared to release himself from existence, he heard the voice of his Master... Master Qui Gon calling to him... "Anakin... Anakin...Take my hand. Your journey has not ended yet.' "Why are you here, Master?" "Because you need me, Anakin... And also... Those who push the force must learn that the force has a way of pushing back... As Darth Sidious's Master is due to learn..."
    Plagueis had won... HE was the chosen one. The Galaxy was his... Until he became aware of a presence. A voice he thought he had silenced... "You're in my life Plagueis... And I've come to take it back."
