    I hope you all enjoyed this one-off story. I wanted to write something that would change certain key aspects of the Star Wars universe in regard to Vader, and slightly alter the original trilogy - but not too much. This of course is just one version of many different variants of a story where Anakin never burned, because as with all What if stories there is no true definitive answer, it varies on the writer and the story that they wish to tell. Now, I did have a version of the story where Vader decided to overthrow Palpatine at the very end once he brought Luke before his master, with the intent to kill him with his son by his side. It would’ve been a 2 on 1 fight with Sidious using one red lightsaber and eventually impaling Vader as he went to save Luke from a lethal attack, and then electrocuting Luke himself, before throwing him down the reactor shaft but that would’ve been too similar to the original ending of Return of the Jedi. But I hope you enjoyed this version that I chose, so thank you for tuning in and may the force be with you.

I think the only thing I'd change is that Vader would have forced his son into an escape pod and jettisoned it with the force, because I just don't see Luke willingly leaving him there.

    This was an interesting what if. I agree that one of the reason Vader didn't try to overthrow Palpatine, even if he was powerful enough to, was because he had no one left by his side before Luke that he wanted to rule with.

    I definitely prefer Vader and Sidious' relationship in Legends as opposed to Disney. In Legends, Sidious wouldn't hesitate to remind Vader who was master and why Vader needed him, but he ultimately did view Vader as a friend, and Sidious was the only person whom Vader could be friends with due to their long history and the fact everyone else in the galaxy feared him; not to mention Sidious was the one who saved him when no one else would have.
    In Disney, Sidious basically treats Vader like a dog. In that version, when he saw Vader on the shore, he honestly considered leaving him there. He doesn't train Vader in the ways of the Dark Side, rather he uses him to enforce the Empire and calls it "teachings."

    @The_Story_Of_Us 2 роки тому +7

    The role his burns played in his life are not to be understated. The vulnerable, restrictive and agonising suit made his life a living hell that was in slavery to Palpatine. This amplified his hatred greatly.
    Tying this into the events of the Kenobi series, regardless of Obi-Wan knowing Anakin was alive or not, he would still be dragged out of hiding by Reva’s vengeful designs against Anakin and would eventually come into conflict with him. A much more powerful Vader would get the upper hand in episode 6 and actually likely kill Obi-Wan. But also possible is that Anakin’s much lesser suffering and greater freedom would leave him more amenable to Obi-Wan’s apologies since his hatred wouldn’t be quite as strong, possibly even allowing him to escape, being unable to bring himself to kill his old master, telling Obi-Wan he never wants to see him again, still unable to bear the reminder of everything he’d lost but not despising him as a few lost limbs were nothing compared to the agony his burns caused him in the original timeline. His meeting with Ahsoka may have had quite a similar outcome as she would also know earlier what he had become and would probably despise him more than he did her from the moment go.
    Now there would be some significant variation whether he chose to kill Obi-Wan or spare him. Had he spared him, the original trilogy may have played out largely the same until Return of the Jedi, as Vader’s subservience to the Emperor would not be absolute by any stretch and I think regardless of how things played out, he and Luke would have defeated the Emperor and Luke turned his father back to the light, both surviving and then heading off together to form a new Jedi order with the benefit of Anakin’s experience with their past failures, which would not lead to the corruption of Ben Solo and so the order would survive as the First Order rose to power, though Anakin’s now significantly old age would either leave him dead or in a more mentor-like position. With a significantly more united and strong front (btw with Rey probably never being discovered or discovering her powers and Finn having no real opportunity to defect from the First Order), they would likely have had a better time finding Palpatine and destroying him and stopping his final conquest.
    Had Anakin killed Obi-Wan in their confrontation, the rebels wouldn’t have taken the Death Star plans to Tattooine, leaving Luke completely out of the picture just like Rey in the other timeline. Having jettisoned R2 and C3P0 with the plans, they would have stayed hidden and Leia captive under the Empire. Whether they rescued her and were tracked back to Yavin or they left her there and the Empire eventually extracted the location of the rebel base from her, with no force user to fly into battle, the rebels would be unable to exploit the Death Star’s weakness and being wiped out. Anakin would never find out about his children and eventually he and Palpatine would come to blows over their obvious ideological differences with Anakin destroying his master and becoming the new Emperor, leading the galaxy in a somewhat better direction, delaying the Empire’s downfall for decades until he himself passed away or grew amenable to change.
    Though I think this speculation doesn’t take into account that Anakin likely would not have been psychologically dependent on Palpatine. Make no mistake, in the original timeline, resignation to his enslavement to Palpatine kept Vader in line with his interests. He always wished to overthrow Palpatine but simply couldn’t. Now he could and absolutely would. Palpatine recognized this reality and being who he is had no intention of being supplanted. Having no leverage over Anakin anymore and having no further use for him after establishing his rule, he would have double crossed his apprentice, taking advantage of Anakin in his weakened state to either kill him right then and there or turning him into some twisted experiment to create a new force sensitive vessel for himself to inhabit and extend his life and dominion. At which point the original trilogy would play out without Darth Vader, allowing Obi-Wan to survive on the Death Star and continue aiding the rebellion, rapidly speeding up Luke’s training and avoiding all the family drama, allowing him and Yoda to train Luke into a jedi so formidable that Palpatine could not have defeated him.
    Post Battle of Endor/whatever the equivalent would be in this timeline however, I don’t think Luke would be able to rebuild the Jedi Order in such a way that the sequel trilogy doesn’t play out the same way it did before.

    Sidious once told Yoda that he knew Vader would become more powerful than him and Yoda. So sensing Vader's rise in power, I think he would act upon it by framing him as a traitor that must be executed. Or Vader could confront the emperor and warn him that he could kill him at any moment if he dares to turn his back on him.

    People forget just how angry Vader actually is, bc they forget just how not according to plan a gigantic decision that it took him forever to make as well as compromising his soul ended up going He was about to be in the prime of his power andyouth, guarantee the safety of his family have a wife and kid, be second in command of the galaxy and execute his version of peace. Instead he gets mutilated, becomes a robot, loses wife and family in one swing, and Obi Wan disappears. Man’s been fuming

    What if.. Anakin never joined Palpatine. Anakin would have told mace about palpatine being the sith lord and everything could go the same except anakin would have waited in the council chambers, Palpatine would have killed mace and all the other masters with him, Palpatine would still excute order 66, Anakin would have felt this in the force then leave the temple with the some of the younglings as the clones are attacking, the temple would still fall, Yoda would still fight palpatine lose and then go into self exile with obi wan. Anakin would head to padme's apartment with the younglings take her and there unborn children find ahsoka and they all would go into hiding just them, Anakin would stop caring about Jedi order rules and start using the both side of the force like Revan, he trains the younglings in the same way along with ahsoka and his kids with help from Qui Gon force ghost and probably Revan's as well, the younglings, his kids and ashoka would be like star killer only his kids and ahsoka would be star killer level. Padme would be helping with the rebellion.
    Palpatine would need a new apprentice so he will find maul and take him back and completing his training leading to a much power maul.

    Anakin not being burned alive made him somewhat a hero of the Galatic Empire and having political power gained influence in this new Imperial era and gained fame for being a war hero. But too bad Anakin refuses to leave with Luke for he knew he can't change the past and the things he has done are wrong and horrible but did get to see his son and realize he could have killed his son as he did with Padme. This is a very good what-if video, my friend, I do have a great what-if video that is original and something you may like doing it.
    What if Anakin had left the Jedi Order when he was still Padwan? In this alternate universe, Anakin had left the Jedi Order due to not being welcome and felt like an outcast from his peers and decide to leave the Jedi Order and head back to Tatooine? The question is... Tatooine is safe to return home to save his mother or Anakin won't know a way to get back to his home planet? Instead, he explored the entire galaxy to see planets with beauty, wonders, and the natives with their cultures and history. But outside of the Galactic Republic territories, there are some people in the outer and mid-rim worlds living in poverty, suffering pain and abuse by those in power along with slavery still exists, would these experiences Anakin made Anakin hate the Jedi or want to do something about it by helping those people? Which options would Anakin do and what would his reaction be like if he witnessed what happens outside of the Republic's reach?
    Also, why not have Anakin been taken in by some Mandalorians? Which Mandalorian group or clan do you want Anakinbe taken in and why? Would it be Clan Wren ( Sabine Wren comes from that clan from Star Wars Rebels and here is more information:starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Clan_Wren ), House Viszla/ Clan Viszla ( starwars.fandom.com/wiki/House_Vizsla), House Kryze (starwars.fandom.com/wiki/House_Kryze#:~:text=House%20Kryze%20was%20under%20the,aid%20of%20the%20Shadow%20Collective.), or could either distinct relatives of his mother happen be descendant of Darth Raven himself? Which these groups are the best choice for Anakin and would these people in their lineage houses could provide Anakin the love, affection, appreciation for who he is, and emotional support he needed? What events would happen if Anakin had left the Jedi Order as Padwan but was taken by lineage Mandalorain houses? Would Anakin be accepted by the Mandalorians or be an outcast in their society and their culture?
    What of Satine Kyrze ( Duchess of Mandalore and Obi-Wan's love interest)? Would she even take Anakin under her wings? If so, what kind of role would Satine be for Anakin, what ways she could get Anakin to open up to her, and is possible Anakin and Bo Katan might get along? What would their relationship be like, if Anakin was taken in by Satine?
    Anyways this is a great what-if video, my friend, for this is the best video with Anakin not being burned to a crisp but becoming the poster the boy of the Galatic Empire and being the charmer and somewhat devious, I love it and with your hard work, very soon people would recognize you for being passionate about this franchise and I were one of the producers in LucasFilm or Disney, I'll definitely hire you for you're an amazing storyteller with great talents and potential you definitely could get the recognition and the praises for the hard work you been put to make these videos, for they are amazing and may the force be with you!!

    One little correction:
    In Legends, Palpatine purposely made his suit uncomfortable and painful and vulnerable because he did not want Vader to surpass him.
    But in the current canon, Palpatine gives Vader permission to fix and adjust the suit as he sees fit. Vader adjusts the suit to be painful because the pain helps him tap into the dark side much more fluidly, thus making him stronger.

      So Anakin initially had a 27,000 midichlorian count. A statement from George Lucas says "Anakin, as Skywalker, as a human being, was going to be extremely powerful," he says. "But he ended up losing his arms and a leg and became partly a robot. So a lot of his ability to use the Force, a lot of his powers, are curbed at this point, because, as a living form, there's not that much of him left. So his ability to be twice as good as the Emperor disappeared, and now he's maybe 20 percent less than the Emperor." its stated in the comics that Palpatine has a midichlorian count of 21,000. So 80% of this would leave Darth Vader with a count of 16,800 after the events that transpired on Mustafa. In one of the comics, I forget which, it's stated that both Luke and Leia have a count of 14,500. In Legends it's there is a story in which Luke warps a black hole using the Force. So with a Midichlorian count higher than Luke, even after Mustafa, it stands to reason that Anakin is significantly more powerful than Luke, and had he not been burned and put in the suit, would have been the most powerful Force user to date.

    I have to tell ya I often wondered what Vader would be like without needing his suit and the theory him being more powerful than Palpatine was a possibility I been dying to see in any SW fan fiction however...I don't know how Padme still died in this didn't you say in the Vader time traveling to save her Palpatine transfer her life essences into him while he was rebuilt in the suit? Did he still do it cause his cuts from Obi Wan were lethal? Not complaining just trying to understand it in this but anyway my favorite in this was finally getting a Luke vs Anakin duel wanted that for a long time too keep up the good work

      The essence transfer is a fan theory, so I went ahead and used it for that specific story, but Padme normally died of a broken heart which is what occurs in this universe. I didn't want Padme to live here because it would change things too much and I wanted to keep as much of the original timeline as possible with Anakin not being burned being the big difference.

    I don't think Darth Vader would overthrow Darth Sidious as well. I think he would drain every but of Sith and Jedi knowledge from him at first.
    Leaving Sidious to believe that Vader was never going to kill him. Thinking well maybe they are friends in away. Since Vader would of found his full power years before Episode 4n A New Hope. Also I believe the Rebellion would of been much smaller.
    Then Vader would strike. Not in the manner that you would expect from the Vader we know but from a more cunning Vader. It wouldn't be as forceful but more manipulation.
