Starkiller was a pretty ******** character in the most fan ficy way possible, he was Vader's apprentice who helped form the rebel alliance and in the bad ending kills Vader and does stuff with the force that would make him a hundred times stronger than Luke or Yoda.

Usually I don't mind OP EU characters like Revan or Bane because they're set thousands of years in the past and don't clash with the films or ruin the power dynamic of the films, and they're well written characters neither apply to Starkiller.

I thought the 2 games were pretty good aside from the 2nd being like 5 hours long. Gameplay was great while the story was meh. Im not saying that it should have been canon but it would have been nice to get a 3rd game.

>starkiller defeats an already weakened vader that wasnt even a shadow of what anakin was before the original trilogy
>starkiller doesnt blow up planets,mindrape people from across the galaxy or anything really that would put him on the same level as palp luke or yoda.


i dont see the problem here...

Vader wasn't as good as a swordsman after Mustafar, but he was still very good. He came up with his own style that was pretty much brute force. Heavy swings to overpower his opponents. Defeating Vader is no easy task. He wasn't weakened when they first fought.

Starkiller pulls a damn star destroyer out of orbit. How is that not OP? Yoda struggled to move a pillar and an X-Wing.

What are you talking about with the "mindrape"? The only person I know of that messed with people's minds across long distances was Palpatine and that was mainly used against Anakin and he was crazy powerful. Luke doesn't reach across the galaxy with the force and neither does Yoda. Yoda and Obi-wan both talk to Luke, but that's when they are dead.

vader was never brute force and heavy swings. his moves were said to flow seamlessly and almost like a dance. while its true he had to change his style due to his injuries, it was never crude. and by the time the original trilogy started anakin wasnt even nearly as strong as he was in the past. and in his past he was the second strongest jedi to ever live(right after yoda) with potential to become strongest force user ever.


and yoda was not only old and near death. he was grievously injuried by palpatine with force lightning before his exile, so he wasnt even nearly as strong as he was in the past.

luke is almost as strong as prime yoda and palp.with some sources speculating him to have surpassed yoda later on in his life.

in the book the star destroyer was already falling and starkiller just re-directed it

That still requires an insane amount of power, if not more. Like the difference between pushing a boulder and pushing a boulder flying at you from outer space.

About Star Killer being OP. In all honestly I felt that the FU series was a great deviation from former canon. It really gave a sense of power to the force which always seemed lacking in the movies. Yeah, a jedi could push over a few droids using the force but I could do the same thing with an over sized air-zooka. Force Unleashed really put some weight to the Force, other than just a few magic tricks, which gave a slight edge in battle. I liked how in the games they just upscaled the power of the force on all fronts which felt AWESOME. The balance aspect I wasn't too fond of was the nerfing of the lightsaber. It felt like I was hitting stuff with an LED Larping sword. Which was Eeeeeehhh

Exactly. The Force is supposed to be the primary weapon of a Jedi or a Sith, not the Lightsaber. It needs to feel powerful.

I hope he doesn't show up in Star Wars: Rebels.

If Starkiller's canon, he makes the whole prophecy of the 'Chosen One' invalid, thereby ruining the plot of all six movies.

The game was okay, but the story was silly.

despite the 2nd game being painfully short i like TFU games. I liked Galen Marrick as a character he had pretty interesting growth in the first game. Also I just always considered him a freak of nature when it comes to force users. Kinda like how Ash's Picachu is freakishly strong relative to other pikachus. So I never really had an issue with him being OP simply because it made the game a blast to play. i wouldn't mind having pop up in the movies somewhere considering he's modeled/voiced by Sam Witwer. Like they go find him and he's chilling with Juno and his kids they ask him for help and he's like "nope I'm retired." or something.

FU1 was a decently fun game. It had a good balance of good and evil and the choice at the end was a decision you could actually feel that Starkiller would struggle with.

FU2 was fairly bad in my opinion. It was painfully short and only had a few levels. Not much of a replay value either. The choice ending at the end felt very forced. You went the entire game going good and then had the option to just go evil at the very end. It just felt awkward. The only part I liked about the game was the final fight. Everything else was pretty bad.
