| Topic | Rise of Skywalker had the zaniest pacing ever *spoilers* |
| DevsBro 12/28/19 8:26:17 PM #22 | After the ending of 8, where there are now few enough rebels or resistance or whatever to fit on the Falcon, the intro scene was like "is this really necessary" I mean they already logically couldn't win. What difference do a billion Star Destroyers even make? Then it has that awful habit of doing everything backwards. It just felt like JJ was sitting there the whole time going "Ha the audience is going to think this is a continuity error until we resolve it four scenes later! I'm such a great troll!" Why is Rey not on the Falcon? How did the rebels get to Jungle planet? Why is Leia qualified to train her as a Jedi? Hyuk, wait and find out! And the lightsabers killed me. When did Rey get the lightsaber back after giving it to Leia and saying "someday I'll earn this lol"? How does she have the blue one when it exploded? What happened to the green one? C3PO was so dang bad. He makes that same stupid joke about nobody caring about his safety over and over like he hears the audience not laughing and keeps repeating it thinking he just wasn't heard. He had a couple of funny moments but for the most part he just made me furious every time he spoke. And why did they even make him a major character? Why give him development all the sudden in the ninth freaking installment, only to undo it via memory wipes? Did they really think anybody was going to fall for the "R2's memory banks suck" line when the entire OT couldn't have happened if that were true? Why insert a random ultradark joke in the very moment that was supposed to be his point of no return? Worst character in the whole series, seriously. It also refuses to follow through on anything. Kills Chewie only to unkill him in the very next scene. (Which, why couldn't Rey tell he wasn't dead immediately?) Mem wipes C3 only to unwipe him a few minutes later. Claims Emperor will possess whoever kills him, then Rey kills him and it doesn't happen. Why did Rey leave Kylo's lightsaber with him? How small is the galaxy that they can cross it in like two minutes? Why did they choose to make her staff association something holding her back instead of her own unique twist? They even use the double-blade for evil Rey. She doesn't even go double-blade when she makes her own lightsaber at the end (in fairness, it could have just been cut off in the shot). What was the training scene where she keeps missing with the lightsaber but lands a hit with the staff even supposed to establish, then? But at least it had decent structure, so there's that. It at least fulfils the minimum requirements to be competent. --- 53 LIII 0b110101 p16 0x35 |

You can literally download SDL for free, even if you just init the controller part, and it will recognize your controller, map the buttons for you and even tell you what the name is. Literally all you have to do at that point is build a 2D dictionary of a couple of the most popular controllers, the button type and an image. If it's not recognized, just default it to Xbox style. It's like half a manday of labor, lol. --- 53 LIII 0b110101 p16 0x35 |

| DevsBro 12/28/19 5:11:03 PM #62 | XXmiznatorXX posted... My biggest one was the healing thing that Rey did to that snake. I can see using it for humans but randomly out of nowhere like its nothing on animals when it was never part of movie lore? Invalidates a big reason of why Anakin turned.I hadn't thought of that But consider also that the Force has clearly had an awakening (hence Rey's use without training and episode 7's subtitle) so it may be that this is a Force power that simply didn't exist at the time of Ep3 but does now. --- 53 LIII 0b110101 p16 0x35 |

Her and Kylo destroyed that thing in TLJ. It was shattered into pieces.

Sure, a big shootout would have been better than Ewoks, but it was still a fun change of pace after episode 5 and checks off all the boxes if competent writing.

They should have done more with it (there are pretty much only two generation 3 stories) but in particular, Sean's story did cool things with the player agency. 3. Less mazey.
