- Protected by the legendary Jedi Order, the Galactic Republic stood as a bastion of peace in the galaxy for a thousand generations. Several centuries ago, the greatest threat the galaxy has ever known emerged in the form of the dark Sith Empire. After a volatile war, the Republic emerged victorious and the Sith were assumed to be extinct. Nonetheless, the Jedi have maintained a constant vigil over the ancient Sith homeworld, to protect the galaxy from the darkness that still resides in the planet's tombs.

"Captain prep your ship, duel of the fates just started"
it's the same energy as
"we'll handle this"
"we'll take the long way"
The real duel of fates we should of gotten
Lmao
fuck yeah, les go boi

This six minute cinematic, eight years ago, was better than the entirety of the New Trilogy.
ElladanKenet true, I want a game of thrones old republic type show so badly
agreed
I'd say it just has better battle scenes, but yes the game was better storywise
This is not even a joke this is pure FACTS
Yep
“wE DoNT hAVe SoUrCE mATeRiAL”
Star Wars fans: "hey, Bob Iger. See all that money running away that you could've had if you told Kathleen to not make bold and idiotic choices in decanonizing the EU? yeah, you sure made a smart choice there didn't ya?"
The fact that this came out of the mouth of the CEO of Lucasfilm is nothing but insulting. How dare KK remove the EU from the canon and then say that Star Wars has no source material? It also proves that she doesn't know anything about Star Wars because there is clearly some EU influence in the sequel trilogy (Han and Leia having a son that falls to the dark side, Palpatine briefly returning from the dead etc).
I'm not a Star Wars expert by any means, but it seems that the smartest course of action would have been to use popular EU material that was already tested by fans.
@Neo's danger Yeah it wasn't inspired, it straightward happened. The difference is that in Legends it had lore and ways to make it have sense where as the ST took that sense and lore and threw it out the window.
@@admin.slayerenryu5217 I dunno. Dark Empire wasn't a particularly good story and bringing Palpatine back undermines Anakin's sacrifice. But Dark Empire can be forgiven for the simple fact that it came before Lucas came up with the Chosen One thing. But JJ has no excuse other than maybe the fact that Rian Johnson deprived the trilogy of a credible villain by killing off Snoke.

This guy (Kao Cen Darach)
Moral of the story, if you're a Jedi Master; stay the hell away from hangars.
His name is Kao Cen Darach btw. But yeah Jedi masters should stay away from hangers.
this guy wasn’t a master more so just a battle commander with a padawan i could be wrong tho
@@MajorWrestlingSyndicate he was a Jedi battle master and arguably one of the strongest to ever hold the title. He literally wrote the texts on what being a battle master should entail.
@@QuantumTactics yea think his name was Kao Cen yea he was a master my mistake
@@MajorWrestlingSyndicate Kae was a Jedi Master, but most important, he was THE Battlemaster of the Jedi order, meaning he was at the top back then in terms of dueling proficiency. That's why he is able to almost win vs 2 of the strongest Siths of his era.

@@user-ge6uk3ll6p So did yours! 😎 👍
I prefer Alderaan wine myself the planet might be gone but there are still tonnes of the product left, and it's some damn good product
The Master's throw to intercept Malgus' blow is my favorite thing ever done with a lightsaber in all of SW.
Yeah it's just pure bad ass
Well he is jedi battlemaster
yea, that was pretty awesome indeed
Kao Cen Darach is one of if not the single most underrated Jedi Masters ever. He is fn awesome! If I could find someone to make his lightsaber for me...take my money!!
That and When Satile holds a Lightsaber back with her hands
Thats a jedi master right there. Being able to handle a double bladed saber and a single saber at the same time
Helps that he was also a battlemaster of the Jedi order, which was a rank given to the best lightsaber wielders in the entire order.
Y. Moroboshi They didn’t have to be the ‘best’, but they had to master all the 7 forms of lightsaber combat, to qualify.
Given a double blade can be ignited to allow the wielder to use only a single blade it only makes sense and as already said he has mastered all seven forms
But you forget the better one krell
Dual wielded dual bladed lightsabers
No matter how long Star Wars goes on, I firmly believe that the Zabrak Jedi Master's last stand against both Malgus and his master at the same time will always make the top 5 list of most badass Star Wars moments. I never get tired of seeing that fight.
Not canon :)
Kao Cen Darach's sacrifice on Korriban, Satele Shan's revenge on Alderaan, Belth Alussis's defiance on Bothawui, and Ven Zallow's defense of the Jedi Temple
Me neither
@@mr.equity1120 You're mother isn't canon :)
Whoa what a bunch of children.
For those wondering, Satele’s master is Kao Cen Darach, who was at the time a legendary Jedi and also earned the title of battle master. Which means he is the supreme master and teacher of lightsaber combat for the Jedi Order. Which is why he was able to take on two Sith at once. He however was weakened from so much combat, malgus however was able to get strength using his rage, which is how many sith stay strong. Which he then used to defeat the now weakened master.
Also i think malgus was holding back just a little, to hide the fact that he was really powerful (sith dont show there full strength unless to solidify there position or cow people into submission) but when his master was injured and it was his chance to rise to the top position he allowed his full potential to be seen as there was noone to challenge him
Agree with you 100%! I only wish he had decided to engage Malgus directly rather than continuously fling objects at him after it didn't work the first time. He had the initiative in much of the fight earlier but he let Malgus direct the fight that last time for the reason you mentioned, he was tired. Probably wouldn't have changed anything, but I just want to see him fight more! One of the best Star Wars fights ever.
@@Ravage369 he was visibly exhausted. At this point it was clear that his endurance was running out, and the reason Malgus won was simply because he had more strength left in reserve. He battered straight through every attempt by Kao Cen to defend himself with sheer force, which is why we weren’t able to see any sort of counter attempt being made.
Kao Cen is an absolute beast, but these were nigh impossible odds in all honesty.

Rafael Si FUCK DIS SHIT IM OUT
Rafael Si omg you had me laughing to hard at that lmfao!!😂😂
Can we just talk about Satele for a moment? Her master tells her to leave him behind to die, and what does she do? Does she do the whole "I can't leave you..." Shtick? Nope. She just did exactly as her master told her without complaint or protest. When she sensed him die, she took a second and then just continued focusing on her escape, saving the grieving for later. Why don't more protagonists act like this? (Not that Satele is a protagonist of the game, but of the trailer). Actually focused and determined rather than just whiny...
Because movies are written for angsty children these days.
Simply because most trilogies follow character growth. The character ages with it's targeted audience. If we, the audience, are presented a character that has little room to grow, then we cannot relate as easily.
This role is filled by the masters. QuiGon, Old Ben Kenobi, Yoda. They all show that self control and restraint and focus. Those often die off early on to promote growth in the focused characters.
Hera Syndulla
She deserve much more to get her own trilogy than Rey
her master was strong enough to hold those 2 back while she and her buddies escaped, someone had to stay behind and keep those 2 darkside buzzards from coming after them, i really liked this scene too bad the sequel trilogy is shit when it could've had awesome scenes similar to this one
Trooper: "Eyes Front"
Smuggler: "Just inspecting the troops"
🤣
I love how the jedi's force push is visible and it's less like a shove and more of a directed explosion. Gives it a lot of weight.
Total Force Unleashed vibes
Still 10X Better than ANYTHING Disney attempted to do with their sequel trilogy. Period.

*Disney replaces KK with Jon Favreau*

*Disney makes the fanfic trilogy non canon*

*Disney makes EU canon again*

*Disney stops stealing fan art and passing it off as their own*

*Disney actually keeps to their word of being 'woke' and makes it clear to China to stop altering posters including black people by shrinking them down* (dont believe me? look at the normal TFA poster then look at the altered Chinese version)

True. True.

BlackSkullArmor Hahahahaha 😂

good chair, good chair, great view of... utter blackness
*Sith fleet appears* oh that darkness....... shit
Robot Chicken Man! Yes! Lol
I love how when malgus gets deflected at 3:00 he's just like "fuck it I'll try again" immediately
Seems pretty realistic too. It’s pretty common for characters to never try a certain move again just because it was blocked/evaded once.
Trying it again just because it did not work for once seems more real.
LOL yh
Kao Cen Darach's duel with Malgus and Vindicant is probably the best demonstration of the Niman form that has ever been shown in Star Wars media. From his force integration in between strikes to his implementation of trakata techniques, not to mention his stellar Jar Kai performance with his and Sateles lightsaber. This shit is just top notch
I love that you bring this up! Niman is probably my favorite form, but so many people drag it because the vast majority of its practitioners don’t dedicate significant time to developing their skills and so don’t really show that many impressive feats.
It’s sooooo much better than episodes 7,8,& 9 too
Wielding a dual blade saber and a single blade saber was a one of a kind fighting style.
would you shut up
This is some of the nerdiest shit ive ever read lol.... XD
"Guess who has the fastest ship in the Sector?"
The prisoner said to his captors.

Did you notice that Ripley's shuttle in Alien looks exactly like this ship from Old Republic?
Preston why are u here, we have to take back the Commonwealth, stop fooling around.
*Sits in Vetribird* Garvy, get in. We got an entire settlement to save.....
I Gotta admit, even though I'm more of a Sith type of person, anyone that can hold himself alone, using a dual bladed lightsaber in one hand, with a single bladed on the other, fighting against two sith Lords, and hold his ground for a reasonable amount of time is worthy of respect.
He was the battlemaster of the Jedi order, kao Cen Darach
if only he had the high ground
fbi agent Let’s not get crazy now; “power corrupts” and all that.
@@iowaclass5657 But he didn't have enough power. I think he should have at least tapped into the high ground power as a last-ditch effort.

@@LCM-vo1rj *sigh*... And there it is.
@@LCM-vo1rj are you sure ?
I’ve been following the old republic for years, and I have never heard anyone complaining about the fact that satele Shan is a woman, who is the grandmaster of the Jedi order. The fans of and respect strong characters, whether they are men or woman. Kathleen Kennedy puts herself on a stool thinking she has done somthing amazing by creating Rey, when fans have been loving man strong woman characters for years. However unlike Rey, they are well written and believable characters, that serve more than just being a token strong female character.
The issue is Disney making it a 'selling point', strong *realistic* female characters have existed for a long time in Star Wars. Satele's grandmother, Bastila Shan, Fay, Siri Tachi, Ahsoka Tano, hell, Leia in the first five minutes of her appearance shows much more nuance than Rey shows in the entire first movie of her debut. Rey, and most of the Sequel Trilogy characters are mostly one dimensional, which is a shame, because the concept of the ST had so much potential and it failed so horribly.
@@cubeddoubled1543 bruh Leia killed her slaver with its own chain, while wearing the outfit used to humiliate her. Total alpha bitch moment there
Elless Dee Right. Beatrice Kiddo ( Kill Bill ), Riply ( Alien ), Alice (Resident Evil) all awesome female leads with plenty of MALE fans.
Elless Dee hm... I’ve been doing some UA-cam searches... apparently they didn’t try talking about her and ray seems like a topic a UA-camr can do right?
@@cubeddoubled1543 The problem was they didnt add the same level of internal conflict and doubt wed seen from the successful characters, Leia started out as a rather arrogant character who the others struggled to get along with, she grew from that and became a more charismatic figure, Han starteed out selfish and only concerned with covering his own back, this changed to him being a leader in the republic fighting for a cause bigger than himself, Luke was a self doubting character who grew to have a great deal of self belief and faith in those around him. Rather than give us something new the new triology not only rehashed this but reverted everyone back to who they were before A New Hope, it made the prior trilogy feel pointless given that we start the force awakens in the same place as A new hope - personally id have liked a more equal footing between the First Order and the New Republic in a post empire galaxy ,
How can I feel more attached to characters that Ive seen for not even 5 minutes than any character in the entirety of the new star wars trilogy?
Walter Mercado Because they don’t give their characters any life or personality besides real basic shit. They have no flaws and perks, they have no goals, no ambitions they have nothing of what makes a good character. They simply exist and do shit for the plot. Honestly I liked TFA and was pretty hyped for TLJ. But we all know how that went.
@@Omarthedemigod I disagree only in that Adam Driver killed it as Kylo Ren. For all the faults those new movies have, and I could spend a week counting them, Adam Driver gave one of the best acting performances in any Star Wars movie.
Elthenar Adam Driver as Kylo Ren is the only thing I loved about the sequels. For all the shit TLJ is Kylo Ren got great development in that movie when destroying his mask and basically saying he’ll be his own man. Then TROS ruined that development by giving him his mask back which ruins the development he had in TLJ.
@@Omarthedemigod I disagree about the mask. He ditched it. Then tried to repair it and put it back on. It all serves to show how confused he was about who and what he was supposed to be. That wasn't truly resolved until TLS when he had the vision of Han and chucked his gimpsaber into the ocean.
That said, it wasn't the writing or plot for Kylo Ren that worked so well, it was the super human efforts of Adam Driver to make what he was given work. With a lesser talent, Kylo could have been as bad as Prequel Anakin.
Cause you clearly didnt pay attention to the movies? Dumbass.
Don't know how many times i've watched this. it never gets old!
Same. Just as good as the first time I saw it.
Yup. :)
This is quite honestly one of the greatest cinematics I have ever seen.
well it is old cause it is the "old" republic
same
Whoever worked out the fight choreography on these trailers (all of the Old Republic trailers) needs to be hired for any future movies or live action shows featuring battle sequences and especially lightsaber fights. The fluid switch between force powers and sabers is flawless, the abilities on display are much more exciting to watch and they fights in general just have you on the edge of your seat. Having someone like Ray Park in Episode 1 was a huge boost and its why that fight with Dark Maul was so good (if you ignore the end), which was recently proven again in the Clone Wars fight with Ashoka and Maul. I'm really hoping in future projects they find a way to cast actors as Jedi with a martial arts background and bring in quality choreographers to write the fight scenes so we can get stuff like we see in the animated games or shows in live action.
It definitely feels like a no-brainer to hire people with martial arts backgrounds, I mean Disney hired Tom Holland as Spider-Man because he’s a skilled gymnast so why dot get a skilled duelist for your Jedi / Sith?
Man, Darth Malgus' fighting style is a pure joy to watch, such an overwhelming brutality.
And also the "Welcome home" in the end. Love SWTOR trailers to bits, every single one of them.
His style heavily reminds me of Vader, just pure aggression and rage and overwhelming their foes until all they can do is die.
@@wallywest4727 Sounds like a combination of forms 5 and 7
That’s definitely form Five, using very aggressive offensive attacks with minimal defense, which is why the Jedi master was winning the first half of the fight by keeping him on the defensive.
Soon as he grabbed his master’s lightsaber, and charged at him, enraged and using the force to amplify his abilities, it was over.
He is basicly Vader if he did cocaine every day
@@wallywest4727 Vader was inspired by Malgus
this trailer really exemplifies why the sith always lose. they don't lose to the jedi because the jedi are necessarily stronger, they lose because they weaken their own forces constantly with bids for personal power, which usually involve betrayal.
The Sith were weaker. The dark side is easy and fast, users can gain power much faster. But the light side is stronger. Obi wan said it best: those who oppose the dark side are stronger than you could ever imagine. The force yearns for balance, but In nature it leans towards the light
great comment
That’s why Darth Krayts Sith lasted longer and were stronger than previous Sith Empires. The Rule of One had made it so instead of apprentice and master all the Sith were under one rule the rule of The Emperor. There were many Sith and most of em didn’t try to kill each other for power they worked together as a team. Now yeah Darth Wyrlook “killed” Krayt to become emperor but ofc he didn’t finished the job and got killed by Krayt. Krayts Sith had the Jedi on the run even if they did fail their Jedi Purge. But in the end the light side of the force prevails like you said. Cade Skywalker has killed Krayt and the Sith got demolished after that.
they should make a movie based on the Sith Triumvirate
My argument is simple. Evolution. Evolution and natural selection always kills off the weak in favor for the survival of the fittest and its been working so far. Sith doctrine always ensures that power is gained, never lost. The rule of two (Introduced later on) was an extreme form of that. (Keeping in mind that it was high treason to murder your Master prior to the rule of two. Promotion was earned through accomplishment, not murder)
This was amazing. To me, this is essentially a trip down Jedi history.
But is it canon?
Obi-Wan Kenobi Youre still alive!?
We sith be back the false sith is fallen kylon Ren are die
Hello there!
Obi-Wan Kenobi Are you disappointed that the Jedi didn’t greet the Sith with a polite ‘Hello there’?
"After a thousand years Corriban is ours again... *WELCOME HOME*"
That moment in the ending is a traditional Sith moment - an apprentice training is finished only, if it can kill it's own master. Some hold back the final strike, and instead of killing it, just damage it on a level, from it cannot heal back to the level, where it can make a proper revenge, but only, if they have a place for them in their future plans.
I don't mean to be that person but it's Korriban*😂😂

@@seomahazuri8999 he showed his true rage he couldnt fight him with a clear mind alone Darth magus would've been killed other wise he even killed his master because a apprentice killing a battle master while your master is wounded dying that's weak in a siths presence

Compared to the OR era, the Jedi Order of the CW era(save for Yoda and Mace) were pretty laughable
I think the part the made the biggest impact for me is at 4:21, where he stabbed the sith dude.
Look at his stance.
Despite the flashy nature of the fight, it still feels like the choreography directors (or whatever you call 'em) understand sword fighting to some degree.
The "blade" going into the siths abdomen also blocks the lower blade from the sith.
His second blade held above his head to block out the sith's upper blade.
This is something you rarely see in movies, games, or trailers. Big fucking kudos.
well said totally agree
*****
Well, in real life you don't use lightsabers at all.
I meant it's nice that they put some practical thinking into the choreography beyond being flashy.
+ZeD The funny part is, when I was a child, I always wanted to see that happen. Use only one blade on a double-bladed lightsaber and extend the second blade just in time to finish off the opponent. So when I saw it in this scene, it was amazing.
turning your back to your opponent = not understanding sword fighting to any degree lol

People in 70's and 80's seemed to know how to make a trilogy though, a fine art a multi-billion company can't master in 2020... Disney trilogy director recently said "it would be better if we had a plan for the trilogy". no comment.
It's not just about respecting the source material, it's also about people who truly love the source material and sought to enrich it. The people who made the sequel trilogy only care about hijacking a popular merchandise to insert their political views not to tell an engaging story. that's why they corrupt the original trilogy's 3 main characters just to enhance their new one.
The people who made this trailer should make a movie
It's Industrial Light and Magic (ILM).
They also did the space scene in Avatar. At the beginning of the movie.
Oops I've made a mistake, it's not ILM, it's Blur, they are the ones who made that Avatar scene.
They also made the Opening cutscene of DC Universe Online
Exactly, It would be so awesome to see
Agreed. The troopers looks DOPE.

This feels more like star wars to me than the new movies.
Because it is.
And the old ones...
@Palpatine McSenateFace All hail to Bioware.
Palpatine McSenateFace Disney have tried making Star Wars like their Marvel films which for Star Wars doesn’t work they should kept with the source material rather than making it something it isn’t
That’s because it is
I love this game to death. A masterpiece with more content than I ever imagined possible for a game.
And it isn't being removed either, unlike something else I could name.....
As someone who's never played an MMO before and started playing recently, I agree. I fucking love this game and the Old Republic era. We need a modern game set in that time period.
Why do these old af cinematics look better and have better story than the new films
Yes
They should make a whole movie like this animation
But it would be ridiculously expensive
As if with the help of social media and word of mouth hysteria people won't flock to watch it
Well the new films aren't exactly cheap to make and even though this animation is amazing, expensive quality, they'd save money hiring lesser-known voice actors instead of big name actors (even mid tier actors can ask for a lot of money) and not paying all the usual film necessities (cameras, stages, costumes, etc). I don't think it would be that much different financially than the live-action ones they're doing now. I think it would take forever though. Supposedly a single scene that spans a few seconds inn Blizzard's awesome CG work takes several months, so I can imagine an entire 90 minute film would take several years easily.
Except they had some pretty well known voice actors work on this game.
This is fucking Star Wars so easy payday.
Why missing this opportunity Disney?

RUMORS FOR 2022 FOR THE OLD REPUBLIC MOVIES
When 'Duel of Fates' starts, you know the shit is about to go down.
Facts
Duel of the Fates is basically the Star Wars version of "why do i hear boss music?"
Correction the Sith are about to go down
This is so unbelievably hype I can’t put it into words. When Duel of The Fates starts and the Jedi Master uses a single and a double Sabre it’s just *mwah*
Ikr, so glorious
I watch this every so often to remember the good stuff that was discontinued. Before the dark times, before Disney. . .
whoever directed these needs to be a part of the new movies
absolutely!!!!
I wouldnt care if it was a cg star wars movie if it looked like this
Darth Revan I'd actually prefer a full movie that looked like this but it would cost aaaa lot of money
Dom Harte as if they wouldn't make it back once its released.
Dom Harte you mean it would cost more to make a full CGI movie than a live one?
"Go satle, you must walk a different path, I gotta walk the path of pure badass"
You know the trailers good when its from a game that came out 8 years ago and it still gets recommended now and again
Just watched this for a 227th time, and it’s still better than the 3 sequels movies. True story.
This level of animation is perfect for a Star Wars movie not too much to take you out of the story like clone wars but just enough to make the lightsaber battles and force moves look really fluid and beastly
+Olly Tempest It also costed a lot.
+Darkninja San and the prequels didn't?
Olly Tempest Making 2 hours of this animation would cost way more than the prequels.
+Darkninja San it would still be sick though
Olly Tempest Precisely.
Jesus Christ, why doesn't Disney make a movie out of this era. After Episode IX, this is where you should go
They really shouldn't. They'll just ruin that too.
Monarch BLUE Agreed.
@@monarchblue4280 They need to have no one who laid a finger on the sequels touch the Old Republic stuff. Not even the woman who was running or whoever.
The stories are right there. There's unlimited potential and a world of possibility. Just put someone passionate who doesn't care about subverting expectations unless the expectation is that it will be bad.
They are going to
I swear.
Star Wars spans 100s of years.
There's literally SO MUCH
Amazing how in 6 minutes we have story and plenty of context. We didn’t get that in 6 hours in the sequel trilogy

I dont know why Lord Vindican goes unnoticed by many here, but he's really cool-looking for a sith! It even feels like a wasted character.
Agreed, been watching this trailer for years just because I admire his fighting style and look.
Vindican is a sith pureblood
he's of the same species that founded the sith order
his appeal to me is the role he plays in Malgus' uprising
he is one of the reasons his apprentice turned out the way he did
@@thedude3065 elaborate?
@@andresv.8880 by shadowing a sith of greater wisdom an experiences apprentices typically use them as a blueprint for their own standards of how they should go about their own reign, be it accepting or rejecting everything the master in question values
Malgus sought above all else to be without equal
Vidican however was a nostalgic
he sought to bring about an era not unlike the Sith Golden Age, before the great hyperspace war, during the reign of the first Emperor, Marka Ragnos
this era was a utopia for the sith Vidican desired to retread on past glories
Malgus however sought to expand upon that, he favored an ambition to seize whatever he wanted and flatten anyone who got in his way(which is inevitable, with as large of a reputation as a would be emperor and lifelong sith lord would amass a plethora of enemies)
ultimately he has been thwarted due t his knack for making enemies
he's been defeated by the likes of The Hero of Tython, Darth Nox, Thexann, and Arcann
he had his grand plan put on hiatus when he was frozen in carbonite and then brainwashed by the dark council
@@thedude3065 I see you're a man of culture, who's played SWTOR (which I play too).
(Also, sorry for only replying months later)
If there's only one thing I hate about SWTOR lore is that they contradicted Kreia in KOTOR 2 about the "true sith" hidden. Kreia obviously referred to the Purebloods Sith like Vindican, and she mentioned them like they were so powerful, even more than Revan and Nihilus and etc.
And when they just kill Vindican and shows the rise of Malgus here (a human), it symbolize the complete opposite. KOTOR 2 made us think that the true ancient sith were still around, but SWTOR writers simply just... Gave up the idea? Idk. They gave me the impression that there was multiple great powerful pureblood sith there, but in reality only Vitiate was TRULY powerful.
That's one more reason why I see Vindican as a wasted character, he could be the symbol of the hidden true Sith Empire. But no, we get Malgus, who's a human, vader lookalike. That make SWTOR's Empire looking a copy of OT Empire.

11 years ago almost this came out. This trailer made me so excited for the game. I was 13 when I watched this, 25 now. This game is and always will be one of my favorite games of all time
They should make some movies set in the Old Republic times. There is so much lore within it that they could make some amazing movies.
1:12 it sounds like Kao says "Shit. The Empire has returned."
"the Shit Empire has returned"
It does sound like that too.
All hail the glorious Shit Empire
The Legend couldn't even win a victory against 4,000 men with 50,000 mate. Embarrasing
Gonna be honest, the first time I saw this I thought that's what he actually said!
This is so well written, each class gets to show off some but their placement doesn't feel arbitrary or forced, and choreography is amazing!
yeah the entire trailer is animated CGI, but 10 years later i still can't help but think the shot at 05:06 was done live
Imagine if this was the ending of The Last Jedi, Rey and Luke face off Kylo and Snoke while Finn and Poe fires up the Falcon to escape, Luke tells Rey to go with them and then has a stand off against Snoke and Kylo, wounds Snoke badly and ultimately falls to Kylo, as he is fueled by the anger he feels towards Luke. Kylo then kills Snoke and claims his role as supreme leader.
Pretty much how it should be
It would've been much better.
+ 1 always imagined old Luke would have been more like this. After watching the Last Jedi I immediately though of this cinematic and what could have been an epic Snoke/Kylo vs Luke/Rey battle. In addition, if similar to the cinematic, she would have given Anakin's lightsaber to Luke and he would have gone out with both his green and blue saber. Giving Kylo possession of these 2 lightsabers could set up his struggle against the light further if they wanted to continue that storyline, as these 2 lightsabers can be considered lightside artifacts.
Rudbin that would be better than the death we got of Luke and Snoke
In just one paragraph OP has managed to write a better final act than Rian Johnson did. Didn't believe that was possible but, bravo.
I really love the way the Sith make their entrances
I've watched this trailer over and over again since its release, and only now I noticed how chilling and cool, in a way, it is that Kao and Satele both go for stabs at their opponents at virtually the same time, at 2:55
To everyone coming back to watch it again "Welcome home..."
Any Jedi who takes on 2 sith at the same time and lasts as long as he did and injures one like that truly is an icon
You should read Fate Of The Jedi book series bruh. Luke kicks some major ass especially in Legacy Of The Force Inferno. In Inferno Master Skywalker totally kick's Jacen's now Darth Caedus's ass when he is saving his son Ben from Caedus and Jacen had more training than Luke after going away on a 5 year journey to learn from other force users after the Vong War
@@dancastro4732 luke is the most powerful mortal force user in the mythos

You mean rey swinging her lightsaber like a child with a heavy baseball bat isn’t good enough for you? Psh
lol yeh same
Young Malgus, Satele and Malcolm are extremely badass.
Nico okarr(the smuggler) might be the most underappreciated part of this trailer.
Disney would be a bunch of idiots to not make an Old Republic Netflix show. Think about the following they'd have :\
Yeah, but then they'd have to ignore the "established canon", since a crapload of it runs contrary to TOR.
Cortosis, for example, isn't lightsaber resistant anymore, it just protects against blasters. All lightsaber crystals are "kyber crystals" and blade color = Force alignment (both of which are two of the most retarded explanations offered). Korriban is now "Moraband" (which sounds dumber) and the only saving grace there is that Disney has grudgingly allowed it to have been Korriban in the past; Malachor is a place, but it's not Malachor V and it's not destroyed as it was in KOTOR II.
Some of the best stuff in the Star Wars EU, the Old Republic Era, has been wiped away because of Disney. Not even bringing back Thrawn makes up for it (especially since it means he's in that godawful Rebels cartoon).
I'll add that the absolute greatest Star Wars character of all time isn't Thrawn (although he's definitely in the top 10)- it's Kreia. And she, too, was removed from canon. A true travesty.
just in the style of these trailers. it would be fucking awesome

What a bloody masterpiece. It has been said once, it has been said a thousand times, but still... What a bloody masterpiece.
Homie really took on two sith lords on his own, killed one (basically) and nearly took out the other. Amazing simply amazing
the sith empire returns... wish that actually happened in one of the movies.
It won't be happening now, The official canon has now changed bits and pieces such as the Jedi originate from Tython to some planet called Jedah now.
Geek Galaxy know what? F DISNEY! MAKE THE SITH EMPIRE (or at least vitiate and tython) CANON! i never liked the republic or jedi anyway. AND THEY HAD TO MAKE TYTHON'S REPLACEMENT NAMED AFTER JEDI.
People. The EU was never canon. George Lucas always said that himself. Parts of the EU are cool, but most of it is pretty shitty. Give the new canon some time to develop, and quit being fanboy trash.
Colin Poole
Star Wars Fanboys are no doubt the bigges assholes ever, they made Lucas sell it because of the abuse, that been said Episode VII was almost identical to IV, I think it's fair to criticize it.
Agreed!
And instead of more games like this, Bioware and EA give us...Anthem. The dark side truly won, didn't it?
Swtor is not as good as you think. It shits on the old Republic lore and has mediocre gameplay at best however it does have a few shining moments.
@@mrshadow7738 For an mmorpg, it's not bad. However, if someone wants a proper videogame of the Old Republic era, I'd introduce them to Kotor 2 first. As for the convoluted lore in swtor, none of it is canon anyway since Disney has denounced the EU, including TOR. Swtor is just WoW with a Star Wars skin.
@@CelestialDraconis completely agree.
No the not darkside but Disney.
