    Malgus is really like battering ram. He's brilliant. He has honor and dignity. Despite being Sith he has good sides. He respects even his ememies. Those he fought,when they prove themselves. Thanks for this. May the Force be with you too😊

    i wouldnt say he became "too powerful" for the sith empire, but he simply outgrew the sith empire in his ideology.
    the only person who kept Malgus in check was the Emperor Vitiate, because lets be honest, no one dared to question Vitiate while he was still ruling the Empire.
    But after news broke out that Vitiate died to the Hero of Tython, Malgus immediately started his plan to rebel, the same way the Dread Masters left the empire after Vitiates Death because they thought no one but Vitiate deserves to rule over them. What makes Malgus so compelling is him TRULY breaking his chains. He is the only Sith (after Vitiates death because Vitiate also outgrew the Sith Code) who is following the Sith Code.

      @Valkyraw There were two assassination plots from the dark council who questioned the leadership of Lord Emperor Vitiate. The entire council was destroyed in a flash of light in the first plot. And the second plot when discovered the entire council was wiped out by the Empire with overwhelming force even those that had nothing to do with the plot.

    Palpatine admired Malgus because the emperor already had all the power, politics, and cunning he needed but lacked that factor of intimidation of fear thru brute force that someone like Malgus could offer

    Vader and Malgus both understood similar things to what Qui-gon understood about the force. The Jedi and Sith codes cease to serve their alignment in the force at a certain point. Both belief systems are actually ideals of governance, and seek to control the galaxy rather than serve their alignment in the force. Vader never truly cared for the Sith or the Empire, but believed that the dark side was the only way to bring order to the galaxy. Malgus outgrew the old Sith Empire and went back to his true purpose in serving the dark side through conflict rather than embracing the Sith ideology of his time. Qui-gon disobeyed the Jedi council and chose to listen to the will of the force itself, even following it to his death. Each of these characters understood that they served the force, not the other way around.

  • @EAWanderer
    @EAWanderer 4 місяці тому +19

    Vader had so much in common with him except for 1 critical thing which set him back.
    🧠
    Whilst Malgus was filled with nothing but raw anger, pain, and darkness, Vader was trapped in a never ending emotional conflict with his former light side self.
    You could put it like this ⬇️
    Malgus - 100% pure darkness
    Vader - 90% Darkness, 10% light

    Interesting analysis. Malgus was clearly fooling himself and also justifying his personality faults. He liked to fight and enjoyed conflict. The problem is if you attempt to found power and structure on that it always crumbles. In the real world the Mongol Empire are a very good example of that problem. Alexander and the fate of his generals after his death is another good one. At some point, even if only for a brief moment you run out of things to fight and begin fighting among yourselves. On a smaller scale; the best fighter or duellist in the world can have a bad day and suddenly one of your strongest, most useful people is gone.
    Had he got his wish the Sith empire would have been as brief and fractured as his own pretender empire was shown to be. He would have ended up more like the Klingon Empire was shown to be in Discovery--constantly at war with itself, unable to grow because growth was not what they were interested in but conflict.
    So much is wasted in conflict, thrown away and squandered. Just as the Jedi were frozen in pacifism so was Malgus a slave to aggression.

    Yes, peace is a lie to the Sith, so the fact that the Jedi would even consider this to be genuine and not a trap is utterly foolish. It makes perfect sense why more politically minded Sith would try this but the fact that it even went any further than the Jedi laughing in their face is kind of dumb.

    I think the Sith empire always falls apart though infighting. the need for Sith to rise though the ranks with out killing other Sith. the greatest weakness of the sith was there selfishness the greatest strength of Jedi was their selflessness.

      Sidious was to different than the old sith, he probably would’ve ended up allot like Maul

    So two mistakes in this video. 1. Darth Malgus stayed with the Empire until the Battle of Ilum, it's not like he became a wondering hermit or anything like that. And 2. He was never on the Dark Council. He was an enforcer of it, but he held no seat on it.

      Two mistakes in this comment, Malgus declared a new empire during the battle of Illum and did depart the old Sith after the sacking of Coruscant. Second, this comes from the illum mission in SWTOR. "You returned to Grand Moff Regus to find him in a heated discussion with Darth Malgus, a member of the Dark Council."

      @TheStupendousWave Huh, I might have to do my own looking into this. Because part of the reason he has access to stuff like Revan's 2nd Star Forge is because he was in charge of the Imperial Strike team that claimed it. Plus he give out a ton of missions, mostly Flash Points, to the players. As far as whether or not he's on the Dark Council, I've not seen this dialog. I remember them saying he represents them and their interests, but I don't remember them ever saying he was on it himself. 🤔

      There’s so many stories and small details, it’s nearly impossible to get it all correct all the time, please let me know what you find, we looked through the missions for this vid and read through the novels, but there is always more out there.

      @TheStupendousWave Agreed, and please don't take my comment as me hating on you, lol. You're videos are far more accurate then many others. And yeah, when it comes to SWTOR, it can be hard to tell what is and is not "canon" by the nature of it being an mmo with a choice system, lol

      @@DMBLaan sometimes it’s so hard to tell legitimate criticism from people just being critical for critical sake, I appreciate your comment and I appreciate your feedback, my somewhat abrasive reply is a product of past experience, not an outright reflection of your comment.
