@@comixcam9154 If only you had Arcann and Senya in this cause they can give you advice that no one should use the superweapon and that it's better of destroyed cause they probably know more of it than anyone else. It's better choosing no one in this or better yet get one of them to side with you and not the other way around.
True but Acina and the Sith empire only did it for their own self-interest besides she was quick to betray the Alliance when a super weapon could tip the scales in her favor.
One thing I don't really like about SWTOR is that they never really let you choose a middle ground like KOTOR and KOTOR 2, you always have to choose either the Republic or the Empire, Jedi or Sith, what if I want no one to have the superweapon and what if I don't like joining either side?
That's one of the weaknesses inherent in an MMO like this... the system is designed around a conflict between two galactic superpowers who are diametrically opposed to one another ideologically at every level of their societies. The Republic is a liberal democracy. The Empire is a totalitarian fascist state. The Jedi and the Sith are (for the most part) on the opposite side of The Force from one another. After all of that Eternal Empire stuff, this is the game going back to that core.
Well if you didn't side with anyone you'd be trying for weeks to get the super weapon and the eternal fleet is stuck in the mud. So you pretty much had to choose a side with those circumstances.
@@HouseOfAlastrian only flip is you can have your characters be double agents/saboteurs for either side. Didn't really do it all that much except for my Imperial Agent, but the whole double agent/saboteur thing worked for her character.
I hate that there are only two options because the Republic started the problem and the Empire tried to take advantage of the situation, to manipulate the Alliance into fighting the Republic.
What was it like playing a Trooper up that far? I stopped mine around The Scion test in that Haven port because it was apparent (at the time) that non-Force users were almost an afterthought in the Eternal Empire story line. Did that change?
Nope, never did. Got worse really. To this day the story is completely silly as a non-force class imo. They have you beating Malgus and the Emperor and all this IMPOSSIBLE shit for a non-force sensitive to EVER do in any other Star Wars media. You just have to go with it at this point and hope for some unique lines and interesting original companion interactions and such. But it still makes no sense whatsoever
@@Skankhunt42.... Jace Malcom beat Malgus hand to hand. And every time you fight Malgus again you have at least another force user by your side so it’s plausible. The other times you fight Arcaan and Vaiilyn, Valkorian aids you so it also makes sense.
@@zachrobinson6801 if you say so 🤣 you have a low bar for what makes sense I guess. And, according to my story, I went into Malgus’s space station above Ilum, ALONE, and beat him 1v1. Who was the force user with me that time..? You can say “oh that was group content”, but it’s never treated that way in the story. Nobody says “oh you and these Jedi you teamed up with beat Malgus. No. They say YOU did it.
@@Skankhunt42.... No you just need everything spoon fed to you for it to make sense. I get that’s it’s hard for you to understand but a troopers makes perfect sense in the expansions. Except you do go with an entire group in order to beat him. There have been plenty of Non force users in both Canon and Legends that have gone up against and even beaten powerful force users. If you don’t like that then you should find a different franchise.
@@zachrobinson6801 I know it’s tough for your tiny brain to understand, but no they don’t. None of the non force classes make any sense in the expansions. End of story. Keep lying to yourself all you want tho buddy. I’m not gonna stop you. And no. I went alone. And beat Malgus. End of story 🤷🏻♂️ I didn’t ever have a group to do it. So… no. You are wrong. Again 🤣 guess you must be used to being wrong by now. Everyone knows the story post classes is incredibly stupid for non force classes and would NEVER happen in any Star Wars media that the higher ups give two fucks about. Because they know it’s silly as fuck. Why do you think this was left as legends canon? Because it’s fucking dumb 🤣 Disney doesn’t want a damn thing to do with this trainwreck of a game. They wanna take Revan from this era and forget everything else. Who could blame them
Awwwww damn... she might be a pub soldier but her Dromund Kaas culture of dealing with betrayal didn't change I see LMAO I'm like... kinda paranoid about starting the KOTFE and KotET and so forth now cuz idk if I'll get all my comps back and I need to finish legacy achievements xD Thanks for the answer! (never played male yet)
You can get your old comps back any time with the companion terminal on Odessen. It won't be story effected, but you can still get them back if you want them. I've done it a few times on a few alts.
Also judging by your profile pic, I'd say you're most likely a girl irl. So that would not surprise me if you have not played male yet. I have a few female toons myself so I'll most likely do a video on my female trooper when I get her to 70 and through the storylines and whatnot of me siding with the empire.
Your Soldier kinda reminds me about that one that fought Malgus in Republic intro movie. Forgot his name though. And Also I have a question. 5:34 Is this some quarantine unga bunga's? :D
"What a good little soldier you turned out to be. Agent Quinn, you be a good little soldier too."☺
@Alvera Schluter wtf xD
"FOR THE EMPIRE!"
While Elara might not be the best companion, she has some of the best character development
I agree. She grows on you over time like any real relationship should and really matures as the story goes on.
I find her quoting regulation when she gets flustered super adorable. Never expected to like her as much as I do, but her story is really interesting.
@@judaihyugashe’s like a female Echo.
Elara is the presttiest woman in the game.
I really wish they would’ve given us a third option to reject both cause I hated making that choice.
Especially since both sides suck. Sure, the Empire is evil, but so is the Republic, the Empire just doesn’t try to hide it.

Your trooper looks good. Exactly how I think a trooper should look imo
Thank you. I thought so too. :)
Oh god it's MY trooper...
Troopers don’t have faces this isn’t cannon
Nah, Trooper has to be wearing the Havoc Squad Cartel Market armor. That's the official Havoc gear
I'm gonna make a Vanguard once my laptop is repaired and i'll resub to play all the DLCs
I gotta say i cannot betray Acina, the Sith Empire was the only one to come to my aid after we declared waron the eternal Empire
Faustian bargain that.
If you're the Trooper, you will lose Elara if you side with the Empire.
True but Acina and the Sith empire only did it for their own self-interest besides she was quick to betray the Alliance when a super weapon could tip the scales in her favor.

3:08 Wise Choice To Join The Republic.
I hate that there are only two options because the Republic started the problem and the Empire tried to take advantage of the situation, to manipulate the Alliance into fighting the Republic.
Unfortunately, Bioware took the easy way out by destroying the Eternal Fleet and the Gravestone.
My inner degenerate thinks Elara should have accidentally used a term of endearment when speaking to the trooper before self correcting to rank.
Thanks for video
Thanks so much for this video. Am I allowed to romance Elara in the Ossus missions? let alone if I do the "Skip Option to Ossus" option?
Don't think you can continue her romance if you skip Iokath. It's better to do it than to skip it.
@@Kravax1992 dang I figured. Alright thanks!
You realize the Trooper story is just Mass Effect, right?
sadly i couldnt continue my romance with her cause i mad a few evil decisions in the Kotfe and kotet :/ well shame i can't reverse them now :/
SWTOR has so many good characters.

1:30 wow Theron... the disrespect is strong in this one
What head did you use for the trooper?
I don't remember honestly. I think it was tactical infantry helm.
Wait - when does she come back? I've already taken the throne and as far as I know the game ends at that point. (Got the ending credits)
Iokath is after that. Go to your ship's mission log and start the iokath storyline.
@@Kravax1992 Oh ok, Thanks.
What happens if you side with the imps tho
Elara contacts you via holo call and says she wishes you had stayed dead. You don't get her as a comp if you side with the Empire, sadly.
Awwwww damn... she might be a pub soldier but her Dromund Kaas culture of dealing with betrayal didn't change I see LMAO

No. Way after in fact..I recommend buying a sub to play the story.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!! No, this is after Kotet and Kotfe

He was raised by Satele Shan’s former master Zho.
