Which char do you think has skills that do not look "right" for his/her lore? Mace Windu was a clear example, but he get reworked. Who else? My vote goes to Ashoka Tano and Assajj Ventress. They are slooooow characters with some self healing. It makes no sense for sny of them

Etc etc etc
Yea im not gonna type all the jedi/sith that were all massivly OP compared to ppl like poe, FOTP, geonosian soldier etc etc etc
Those are the ones that should be mediocre filler toons with a strong emphasis on the jedi/sith which is the real reson we love star wars anyway
I think Anakin skills represent well his personslity
Sure if they upped the damage multipliers by about 2x on all his abilities
Just started watching the Clone Wars series a week ago and those were the two names that immediately popped into my mind when I saw your thread title. First time I saw those two fight I was like... how did they get from THAT (looks at monitor) to THAT (looks at phone)?
Most of them are pretty good thematically. Even Poe kinda matches his movie depiction, they just made him too strong, and Anakin they just made too weak (IMO).
Snips I just made an entire thread about. She seems way off.
Not talking about power level, just theme. If you talk power you have to consider things like geo soldier and ig-86 should fall over if you look at the and have no attack. I don't think that's the intended function of the game though.
I agree on Luke being oddly represented, however, because his rifle plays no important role even in Episode IV, but they based a whole character around it.
+1
I have to say
Mace
Luke
Anakin
Gotta say Chewie. In FA you see what that Bowcaster was doing?
- Dooku
- Kylo Ren
- Sidious
- Vader
- Chewie
- Most of the droids
- Fives
- Old Ben (though IMO both of his abilities are a bit overdone and he's too tanky to match his real character.. he goes down like a wet noodle in a lot of fights)
Kylo is my favorite for design. He has cool abilities that remind me of his in-movie behavior, and he requires thought to play. He's strong and versatile, but is not OP.
Well they can't actually represent them based on their in-lore power levels or 90% of the characters would be useless relative to the other 10%. There is obviously some balancing that has to be done because it's a game. (True everywhere. Even chess!)
Sure thing that letting the jedi and sith slaughter everything would ruin the game, but come on... Ewoks? We might as well get mouse droids and womp rats...
I think the Luke portrayed currently is perfect for his episode iv representation. He spent his days bullseyeing womp rats.
Side note: do we know where they got the draw a bead reference for his ability? I don't remember that being referenced anywhere in the movies or supplement material.
The don't list what era he's from, so you can't say what type of armor he's wearing. But having only 2 abilities is a huge disappointment; if anyone in the game ought to have 3 or 4 abilities, no Leader ability, and a strong Will based unique, it's this versatile, deadly Mandalorian. Out of all the characters in this game, he would be the one most likely to be able to kill any of the others.
As far as the BEST represented, Dooku easily tops the list. Going beyond how they actually made the character bear some likeness to Christopher Lee (Who was an amazing choice for the role in the movies, and one of the only actors that played his character in a believable manner)...
The way he plays in the game is actually reminiscent of Makashi, his lightsaber form in-universe, by means of him being very fast, attacking multiple times at weak points (Block and Stun), using ripostes as a large feature of his style, and using Force Lightning. Even his leader ability, while not being optimal in the way that it synergizes with Flawless Riposte, fits with Makashi; when he lets you miss, his next strike will take advantage of the fact that your reach exceeds your grasp.
Completely agree. For one, they should not be that slow, I don't care what there abilities are. If Ventess had turn 7 speed, she would be one of the first to move in round 2, making her rampage and dispel equally as useful as it is now, if not more.
P.S. Your in for a treat with the Clone Wars. It starts off slow but just keeps getting better and better in terms of story, character development and animation.
Boba actually gets more credits in this game than in the movies V & VI
I mean, in V he tracks down Han despite Han eluding an Imperial Fleet (cause Luke isn't around), and in VI he's literally up against the Mary Sue Will-of-the-Force in the form of Luke.
Despite that and him falling into the Sarlacc, he KILLS IT FROM THE INSIDE, and then comes back.
Well, we have stormtroopers. And ewoks kick their ****
He falla into the sarlacc because a blind man activated his jetpack and he crashed against s vessel, looney tunes style.
The Imperial fleet in V, is about as clever as spaceballs, and every time I see Boba cry about how much Han is worth to him at Vader, I still hope for Vader to force choke him, and say "Problem solved", in same tone as he said "As you wish" to Tarkin in IV
And in V he don't kill Sarlacc, thats some after marked money making, he just dies like Triqui wrote
Also, I don't quite understand Asajj Ventress' skill set, when comparing it to her character. Strike fear is what stands out as atypical to me. Iirc she never dabbled with mind altering Sith techniques. On the contrary, Ventress herself was the one with the fragile mind, easily enraged and uncontrolled.
I also miss Ventress' snarky and sarcastic attitude in this game. But I think they represented the "predator" feeling of her quite well with her Rampage ability. If only it activated properly on her own kills... :-/
I think Ahsoka is rather well portrayed. Her character model is spot on, as is her move set. I take it that her group heal is a homage to her inspiring cheerfulness and bravery. I could see it turned into a debuff immunity skill instead though. Healing feels more like a healer thing.
My sides!!! I haven't laughed that hard since someone begged the devs to change Kylo's appearance after buying TFA pack, because "he looks like a frooty thief".
