Star Wars: Hunters will let you play as two Jawas in a trenchcoat

Guess that means the game is ruined then because anything that doesn't depict the Jawas as mindless pushovers is ruined by default as we already established.

While I also disagreed with Ameris complaints about the Mandalorian, it does not warrant this kind of passive agressive sniping long after the debate is over. So please don't its just annoying.

In a more relevant topics, the game looks intresting. A gameplay demo would be nice.

I mean, I somewhat disagreed with Ameri's points back then too. But wasn't that nearly a year ago? Long time to hold a grudge.

I legit forgot about that and was wondering what it was in reference to.

So are you insulting yourself or saying you're not a Star Wars fan. If the latter, why do you post here?

Are you a baby or are you a non-Star Wars fan that posts on a SW thread constantly? Or did you misspeak?

What is this, pick on Ameri day? First Vassenor comes at me over a year old argument, and now I'm getting the "Are you a real fan?" stuff again.

Bright side, a lot of people stepped up even though they've disagreed with you about like most things. So there's that.

Not "are you a real fan." Are you a Star Wars fan since in your mind being a Star Wars fan apparently means being shitty.

Ironically, one of those was me, lol. And I stand by that defense. That doesn't mean you shouldn't call out present day wrongness.

Kind of feels like a reading comprehension problem more than a wrongness. Contextually and functionally you can understand that he was not speaking in absolutes (not being a Sith Lord after all) so it seems like you're chasing his tail on semantics when it's perfectly clear the distinction he was making.

Just came back here from Reddit and I must say I am not exactly excited for a KOTOR remake...not that I'll be able to actually play it anyway with my potato and outdated consoles/PCs.
The United Colonies of Earth exists:

to ensure the observation and protection of the rights of all human beings;
to defend humankind from invasion, catastrophe, fraud and violence;
to represent the interests of humankind to the other governments of the Galaxy;
to facilitate the perpetuation of the unity of human civilization and infrastructure between otherwise self-governing colonies;
and to promote technological advancement and scientific discovery for the perpetuation and expansion of the unity and empowerment of all human beings.
