      They don’t call them the dark wars for nothing, the Jedi were nearly extinct at this point, and the exile ventured off into the unknown regions. The republic was largely uninvolved in the Dark Wars, the Sith Triumvirate was destroyed, and they were fought largely in secret. There simply wasn’t anyone to chronicle the events, and as such they have largely been lost to history in the Star Wars Galaxy.

    The Old Republic line of EU content should be considered canon. The writers did alot to provide visible links to the canon of the movies, and the history of the galaxy and republic are thousands of years old, even according to the movies. I also remember from episode 1, a jedi master says "the sith have been extinct for over a millenium" Which means 1. Sith were around and a major threat until they werent 2. That was over a thousand years before the episode 1 plot and 3.They even speak of a conflict between the sith and jedi in ancient times. Come on guys, make this canon officially..

      +Jack Murphy There was pretty much only one thing that happened before the Great Hyperspace War that would have led to the events of SWTOR: The Great Jedi Schism, in which a dozen Jedi discovered the Dark Side of the Force and were exiled to Korriban (or Moraband as it has sometimes been called). There the fallen Jedi enslaved the red-skinned Sith populace of the planet, declared themselves the first Sith Lords, and set to work plotting their vengeance. At the same time, Vitiate, the being who would become the original Sith Emperor, also discovered the Dark Side and after enacting a Sith alchemy ritual, wiped his homeworld clean of the Force and took it for himself. The Sith Emperor's entire master endgame for the next three thousand years was to enact the ritual again, but this time, across the entire galaxy. He would, in the end, be cast down by the Jedi known to history as "The Hero of Tython". Though the Sith Emperor survived, his power was all but gone and his Empire was shattered. For the next two thousand years, the Sith attempted to pick up the pieces of their once-mighty past and defeat the Republic for good, but the lack of the Sith Emperor's rigid and orderly leadership and the power-hungry nature of the Sith undermined their efforts until it all came to a head with the total destruction of the Sith Empire and the Ruusan Reformation, which brought a seemingly endless conflict to a conclusion. Of the entire Order of the Dark Lords of the Sith, only one had managed to crawl out of sight of the newly reformed Galactic Republic and the Jedi Order, both now stronger than ever. That one Sith Lord's name was Darth Bane. Realizing that it was the Sith themselves that caused the end of their Empire, he declared, with his newly-named apprentice Darth Zannah as his witness, that from that point forth, there could only be two Sith, a master and an apprentice, as so to minimize the greed that plagued their predecessors. He and Zannah then went into hiding to patiently wait for an opportunity to present itself that the Sith could capitalize on and finally destroy the Republic. In the meantime, they would continue the Sith lineage of masters and apprentices so that, even if took a thousand years, the Sith would be around to take the long-awaited opportunity to defeat the Republic at last. The rest, as they say, is history.

    Mainly, it's not about good and evil to the Jedi and Sith.
    The Jedi preach "no emotion". A Jedi can't be angry, or sad, or happy. And they have to swear to celibacy. They're like the Night' Watch. The Sith see this as stupid, which is kinda true. A lot of Jedi become Sith simply because they weren't allowed to fall in love, get married or have children. The leader of the Jedi order, Sateal Shan, abandoned her own son, but still the act of having a child could make her more Sith than Jedi. In contrast, her opposite - Darth Malgus - is not as cruel as you might think. He's a very open and forgiving man. A Sith who'll laugh with you if you insult him rather than kill you. He fights along side his soldiers, treats his enemies with respect (even Sateal) and treats aliens as equals and preaches for their civil rights. He even took a alien slave, released her, and took her as his wife (you see them fight together in the "Deceived Trailer"). He doesn't get involved in politics often and doesn't care about gaining power for himself, only the protection and prosperity of the Empire's people. He's a good man even several Jedi can respect and be on peaceful terms with. He is just unwilling to give up his emotions - his joy, his love, his hate - and believes people should be free to feel the way they want.

It's understandable that blizzard doesn't create content before the mmo started for current since it would affect a massive game. Disney just needs to hiatus current time and pull it back and give us a decent backstory to everything starting with all these events around the eternal empire/old Republic/sith empire stuff

    Oddly enough, the Force Wars on Tython started all of this. During the time in Before the Old Republic Era, the Rakata had long established their Infinite Empire after bein' shown how to use the Force by the benevolent Kwa of Dathomir, they also gave the primitive war-like species advanced technology to boot. The Rakata however grew envious of their benefactors Infinity Gates and asked to be given the tech to expand their growing empire. When refused they waged war and nearly killed off the Kwa. Soon after they expanded and established their empire spanning the known Galaxy, through the Dark Side of the Force. Meanwhile however the order of the Dai Bendu monks from almost all around the galaxy were called by Tho Yor semi-sentient craft and many were brought to Tython. They establish the earliest Force-based organization of the Light Side or rather, the Harmonious Center, the Je'daii Order. Je'daii, a Dai Bendu word meaning 'mystic center' so they strove for balance in the Force. A Rakata ship blew up in low Tython orbit and one of their Force Hounds, Force-sensitive warrior-slaves brought a dark storm to the planet. In time, some of the Je'daii began to follow the Bogan or Dark side while others sought for balance with the Bogan and Ashla or Light side. The Force Wars on Tython raged and where the Followers of the Light and Dark sides of the Force crossed blades for the first time. Of course, another significant Dark side power arose. It's not hard to imagine that on Korriban, homeworld of the Sith species or the Red Sith the Rakata sought to conquer and enslave them. However their plans were thwarted when the first ruler of the Sith rose to power, Sith King or Sith'ari (overlord) Adas. Adas united the Sith clans and after having learned some valuable secrets from the Rakata pushed the invaders from the Sith's homeworld, pulsating with the Dark side as it did. Everything else that happened? That would all fall into place, in time.

    The biggest strength and weakness of the legend's lore is that it evolved very organically. There was some level of oversight from Lucasarts to prevent truly lore breaking things from happening but writers were mostly given a lot of freedom.

Nothing can suck as hard as them and everything after will only look incredible by comparison. The knee-jerk reaction to Disney is entirely unwarranted, what they've done makes total sense for anyone to combine the entire Star Wars universe and hail it under a single banner.
      EU will be cherry picked for the best stories and character while the other random stuff will be left alone. For the first time in Star Wars franchise history, there's a solid business model behind it.

      “According to Lucas Licensing Editor Sue, Rostoni, ‘Canon refers to an authoritative list of books that Lucas Licensing editors consider an authentic part of the official Star Wars history. Our goal is to present a continuous and unified history of the Star Wars galaxy, insofar as that history does not conflict with, or undermine the meaning of Mr. Lucas’s Star Wars saga of films and screenplays.’ Things that Lucas Licensing does not consider official parts of the continuous Star Wars history show an Infinities logo or are contained in Star Wars Tales. Everything else is considered canon.”-Sue Rostoni, Lucas Books and Lucas Licensing Managing Editor, in Star Wars gamer #6, July 1, 2001
      “Basically, everything except those items marked with an “Infinity” logo (i.e. the Star Wars Tales comics) is considered canon.”-Sue Rostoni, Lucas Books and Lucas Licensing Managing Editor, Starwars.com May 30, 2003 “‘Lucasfilm canon’” refers to anything produced by any of the Lucas companies, whether it be movies, books games or internet. “Movie canon” is only what you see and hear in the Star Wars films”- Leland Chee, Continuity Database administrator aka Keeper of the Holocron for Lucas Licensing,
      Starwars.com May 30, 2003
      (Continuity vs canon) “Its pretty much the same-sounds better to say that we try to maintain the continuity of the universe, rather than saying the canon of the universe”- Sue Rostoni, Lucas Books and Lucas Licensing Managing Editor,
      on Starwars.com September 2003
      “When asked if the G and C-levels formed separate and independent canon, Chee responded by stating that both were part of a single canon: ‘There is one
      overall continuity.’”-Leland Chee, Continuity Database administrator aka Keeper of the Holocron for Lucas Licensing, August 4, 2004
      “The concept of an expanded universe certainly isn’t unique to star wars. Many popular genre properties from Star Trek to Alien, release spinoff tales that shed light on events not seen in the official narrative. But Star Wars EU is unique both in its size and its care which is in the narrative which is shepherd and organized
      and Star Wars the Expanded universe is official.” -Star wars insider 101 May
      2008
      "Continuity has been the supreme commandment at Lucasfilm for Shadows and all its Star Wars projects.The company had made the decision to not only expand its universe but have it unfold as a seamless chronicle. Whether a new star system is explored in a novel or a scene is set in ancient Jedi days from a comic series, nothing can contradict the history or logic of what has gone before.
      To keep it all straight there is 'The Canon', a timeline of major events and lifespan of main characters prepared by the continuity editors of Lucasfilm and considered the in-house bible of the Star Wars universe." ~ Mark Cotta Vaz, The Secrets of Shadows of the Empire
      1996
      “A reboot would be really, really messy. There are currently 140 odd adult novels alone not counting childrens, young adults, art books, schematics all that 140 adult novels. To just say ok we are going to wipe those out, especially since many of them are still on the books shelves or book store shelves. What are you going to do, are you going to say all of these, we are just going to stop selling them? Del Rey would not like that, Bantam would not like that. The publishing industry has
      taken enough of a hit these days as it is. A reboot would be immensely hard to
      do.”-Timothy Zahn, Author for the EU, Star Wars fan days IV October 10, 2011
      “The thing about reboots is that the two arenas that reboots are successful, one is comic books universes and one is TV series. Comic books universes work largely because comic books sales are generational I mean most people read comics for a span of years from their childhood to say when they get to college. People who come to an event like this, to Star Wars fan days, are exceptions you have to remember that you are not the kind of people I am talking about. But the large audience are in fact people who read until they are college age and then stop. So a generational reboot works and a TV series reboot works because 10, 15, 20 years after the series is dead you have a new generation of viewers. Battlestar Galactica worked that way, the original series aired in 1978 and by the time the new series was done that generation was in its 40s and had fond memories that were pretty vague. But the Star Wars universe is being actively maintained by leadership and a fan base that is vitally interested in what’s going on so it would be an immense pressure not to reboot.”-Aaron Allston, Author for the EU, Star Wars fan days IV October 10, 2011“Still, Iger wanted to make sure that Lucas, who was used to controlling every aspect of Star Wars, from set design to lunchboxes, understood that Disney, not Lucasfilm, would have final say over any future movies.”-Dave Leonard, Businessweek.com editor, in Businessweek.com article March 7, 2013 “We needed to have an understanding that if we acquire the company, despite tons of collegial conversations and collaboration, at the end of the day, we have to be the ones who sign off on whatever the plans are,”-Alan Horn, Chairman of Walt Disney studios, Businessweek.com article March 7, 2013
      Disney has full control of Lucasfilm, and sooner or later, they’ll stop printing “Legends” and force their “canon” onto us. Star Wars was one continuity before Disney got involved. Do you think fans are going to just sit back and just tolerate it?

The ONLY SW that exists to me is the original 6, Clone Wars movie and cartoon series, the old canon books and games, and Rebels (but barely. I just loved seeing Ahsoka and Rex again). I give disney credit for The Mandalorian, as it’s fucking awesome. I LOVE season 7 and Bad Batch series from Clone Wars. Have you see Shards Of The Past, the fan film by Star Wars Theory? OMFG!!!! It is THE BEST SW thing to come out since Lucas sold SW. As far as I’m concerned, it’s canon. Hard to believe 16 minutes of fan film is GREATER than the 3 ABOMINATIONS and billions of dollars spent by disney.

    The vengeance of the Sith came swiftly, Imperial battlecruisers from around the galaxy closed in on Bothan space to recoup their losses. A high powered planetary shield protected Bothawui from bombardment forcing the Imperial forces to engage on the ground. Jedi master Belth Allusis, seven dozen of the order's finest knights and four thousand Republic soldiers dug in to defend the shield generators, or die trying.

    I think the Old Republic game did a great job in highlighting the difference in power and politics between a Republic and an Empire. While an Empire can be less stable and much easier to dismantle then a Republic it can act more swiftly and issue orders more effectively when the power structure is stable. This is because in a democratic system decisions are taken based on a majority vote and if people don't make up their minds fast enough then that will result in a lot of missed opportunities, not to mention since the parties of a republic are not obligated to obey or partake in the council's motion. In an Empire, there is one leader and one governing body and all other members are forced to obey orders of superiors under martial law so because of this they can act more swiftly and efficiently since there is not much room to debate or argue when the Emperor and his council issues the orders.

    • @TheGIJew.
      @TheGIJew. 3 роки тому

      But it also shows the problems with keeping the Empire functioning. The Emperor basically abandoned them and became completely absent, so the Dark Council took over. But all the Dark Council roles overlapped with each other and there was constant infighting. It was basically a revolving door of sith. Everyone from the Empire ended up being more focused on undermining and replacing their superior to gain power rather than actually improving the Empire or fighting the Republic.
      It's interesting how the timeline of SWTOR unfolded. At first the Empire came back as a united force, completely focused on destroying the Republic, and during that time they were incredibly effective. Then came the Treaty of Coruscant, and the second the Empire and the Sith got a chance to breathe, they all turned on each other. So when the war started again, the Republic started to dominate them.

    Something I really like about SWTOR is the push and pull of the conflict. The Sith are able to do a lot of damage to the Republic, but the latter's dogged tenacity and the former's internal strife means that the conflict is never a certain thing. It's really just a bitter war and I think it's really summed up by how Dural describes the invasion of Coruscant as a risky gambit that was done because so many of their other plans failed.

I dont miss the old post ep6 EU, i never got into it really aside from Thrawn. And anyway canon is only what they say happened and that these are legends of the SW universe and anyways it doesnt make them anyless interesting stories.
