CyricZ 10/30/19 7:42:39 AM #19:	Now I'm not going to pretend that the most used cheat code for Jedi Outcast wasn't "realistic combat", but narratively, the loss of a limb in Star Wars was always viewed as a very significant event, and perhaps cheapening it down a way for sadists to get their rocks off on chopping arms off might drift away from the message the game is trying to get across.

So many Star Wars games have worked like this in the past that it doesn't really matter though Those games weren't in HD. Like, I don't care about this either but how can you not understand why some would? And? My point is it wasn't really even much of a thing in other Star Wars games, so why would anyone expect to see it here?

Like I said above, if this sort of inconsistency bothers someone, then they're into the wrong series. It wasn't that the lightsaber didn't dismember, it just only happened once a movie until Disney got it's hands on it. That isn't an inconsistency at all.

KillerSlaw 10/30/19 8:10:42 AM #41:	Kitt posted... And? And it's more glaring now, which is why more people complain about it now. What about this doesn't make sense? I get that people should get over it, because the fact it is more glaring is also the fact that in HD dismemberment becomes an instant M rating. They can still complain about it though, and it shouldn't be surprising. This is the trouble with adults wanting a series designed around selling toys for kids to suddenly grow up for them. --- Twitter ranks as one of the top three worst things to happen to humanity. <cite>KillerSlaw posted [p:929423042] in Why is no ...

Yeah folk can blame Disney for this sort of thing, but the reality is realistic and consistent graphic violence has never been a thing across the films and games.

I don't see why someone not pointlessly loving on something seems to bug you. shrug But what bothers me is that I swear you are one of the ones who has argued with me in the past that Star Wars wasn't primarily designed for children specifically because of the dismemberment. Maybe I'm confusing you with someone else though since I seem to always see you defending Star Wars whenever someone has a complaint, I don't know.
