      As much as the trailers are excellent film making is a whole other thing. And last I checked, Bioware doesn't do filmmaking, so sorry to say, if they did try to make a movie, it would just end up terrible given the lack of and no experience in several key areas. An example is in scriptwriting. As much as we may praise the writing team for making amazing stories, they're all stories with multiple choices, resulting in the story protagonist being a blank slate. That works in a multi-choice game, but in a film that makes the protagonist bland.

    1:42 Honestly my favourite part of that moment is that Every. Single. Sith. Felt the need to do a cool pose or motion when they ignited the saber, no two of which are exactly alike. one goes for the dramatic "turn to face the camera", one goes for the big "flash it past my face as it turns on", one goes for the "straight into a combat stance" while another does the "already IN a stance, and remain still while igniting", the two on the wings, (Who clearly know the value of symmetry) both do the "ignite while crouched and rise in unison."
    And the best of all, that one Sith Trooper on the left hand side just standing there looking around like "Soooo did you guys rehearse this as a group, or individually in front of your bedroom mirrors?"
    Honestly Sith will always beat Jedi by sheer force of "Extra". Ironic they're on the Darkside when they live for the spotlight.

There is no group of words more harmful than "good job". If we want this game to improve, we need to point out the stuff we dont like, harshly if necessary.

      Thing is, watching it in slow motion isn't even a requirement because the fights work on their own merits; there are clearly strikes that would have been lethal if they had landed were the characters were too slow or didn't parry/block.

      Because that's just in the trailer, in the lore the Jedi and Sith are learning the same lightsaber forms. Also depends on the user; Darth Sidious has a very aggresive fighting style while Dooku is much more graceful almost. Anakin as a Jedi was already a bruiser, as pre-suit Vader his fighting style becomes even more aggressive but post-suit, has to be more careful (though still brutal) due to his handicaps.

She was hardcore into these games and even participated in the big faction wars on Galaxies. I was too young at the time to be captivated by MMO's because they weren't immediate into action types of games, but I slowly grew to love them, and now I play only SWTOR, and it will probably be what I play till the game officially dies. Either because of player count or the servers shutting down. Seeing these trailers reuploaded, brought me to tears because I remember watching them with my mom, both of us on our feet, excited about what would happen next, seeing a world of sith and jedi like never before.

Granted, he has the Order behind him, but part of me wants to imagine he didn’t even want to fight at first. Not to say he wanted to discuss peace, I doubt it. But from his perspective, Darth Malgus just showed up on Coruscant with a singular Imperial Agent alongside him, and is now facing down the entire Jedi Order. I think the first thing he wanted to do was ask his old enemy what the hell his plan even was.
