The nameless sound terrifying but they aren’t as dangerous as nihilus. Nihilus could drain entire planets of the force and he became more powerful over time. He was a wound in the force and if he wasn’t stopped he would have drained the force from the entire galaxy and left it lifeless then he would have died as his own hunger for force energy destroyed him
@@matthewminor4630 Yeah, sounds like at least with Nihilus you have an eminent threat that you know is happening and therefore can plan an attack against. These things on the other hand sound like you wouldn't know about them until it is too late to do anything and you are the prey.

No flame, I just find it really weird that you're posting about nihilus like 99% of the people who watch this channel don't know everything about him that you just said

@@shadowpearl8310 I haven't seen one either, so I'll have to just put some numbers there, and tweak it as needed, using this video as a guide. Still on much lesser enemies like storm troopers
I dunno, I think droid technology has advanced enough since the first time the Nameless showed up, that I think we could assemble enough droids to help take em down.
If Star Wars were given a proper horror movie or trilogy, these things would help create a believable crisis for the Jedi and Sith to unite around and go after them. Set it 1,000 years into the future. That way we know no one or whether they survive.
I have to ask this, Why would they delete knowledge of this creature from the Jedi Archives? wouldnt it be better to know there was such a dangerous threat lurking out there somewhere? This looks like a silly decision to make.
The thinking was was probably if a Jedi would fall to the dark side with this knowledge. Or somebody else managed to somehow get access to it. They would have the knowledge on how to control them possibly where they could be. Could you picture the level of damage that I could do? Right decision no understandable yes
Yet again another lore clip from the man himself! I Seriously thought this topic was going to be about the Starweird, but I guess I was wrong - Also nice to wake up on a Saturday and see Mr. Stupendous uploading 2 videos in within 2 hours.
I feel with stuff like this, aboloth, what have you in the lore...Star Wars could easily be in the same universe as 40k, just a different galaxy. Jedi = psykers, aboloth = chaos god, hyperspace dimension = warp, etc
a sense that the only way to thoroughly wipe out the "nameless" A dark and light side union may be needed. It use fear as a tactic, darksiders would be less likely to succumb to this. While as the jedi may have the calm to prevent them from running into a trap by those that have unleashed it. Perhaps Dathomirians could be of assistance in that matter. or another "Darth Marr" like warrior
Battle oriented droids. Not the cheap ones 1) Intelligent 2) Not falling for force trics 3) Cannot succumb to fear 4) Hard to kill 5) Can be rigged with self-destruction mechanism 6) Can use advanced build-in scanners to find this critters Funding is the only problem here Though, if you use cheap ones from clone wars in the same numbers - they too will suffice
Disney threw the entire EU away, and then they realized they were incapable of coming up with characters on their own and started grabbing EU characters for their TV shows. But even with a bunch of Star Wars lore they could use, they still managed to screw it up.
The one flaw with a creature like this is how they specifically target force sensitive beings. See, it's taught that the force touches every living thing. So even on scales that don't matter everything is force sensitive. Some people and things can wield it ... others can't and are oblivious. That means if allowed to propagate enough, or go unchecked, The Nameless would rend life form the entire universe if given the chance. Even if the Jedi teaching about the force touching everything is wrong you'd still have force sensitive beings who aren't aware about it. Either they aren't sensitive enough to wield it or it doesn't manifest in ways that seem odd, indicators that there's potential like Anakin's ability to pod race despite being human. The Nameless are simply drawn to those can wield it first because it'd sate their hunger the most. Like choosing a whole turkey over a small square slice of ham.
Loving the collabs with StarvWars Theory. You guys are killing it. Have You seen anything from a channel called Skywalker Stodirs?. Dont know who is behind it, but it has some compelling stuff, but relies on AI video generation at the very least. Could entirely be AI generated for all i know, but it could be an interesting topic to cover if you havent already and I just missed it.
Awesome vid stupendous always love these horror lore stories and especially one’s like this were the Jedi have a real reason to be afraid of creatures that can literally suck the living force from the user is just so fascinating
Jedi don't really have anything to do with Justice per se. They just serve the will of the force, that may mean implement justice, but that's rarely the case.
The Nameless are the Creatures that go bump in the dark(side), the Monsters under the beds of the Jedi, the Nightmares force sensitives can't wake up from, the Ghosts spoken of in retold stories told by Younglings who don't know any better....
The Jedi feared many things, the entire Jedi Order is built on fear. Fear of the dark, fear of their own emotions, fear of what happens if they lose control, fear of themselves, fear of losing their power (both force powers and political clout).
When I feel intense fear, it’s hard for me to produce poetry and art. Similar to the concept of a Jedi losing his or her ability to use the force when they feel intense fear.
These are interestingly similar to the Sisters of Silence in 40k in their effect on force-sensitives. But at least those don't eat psykers It'd be interesting if there were people that nullify all force connections around them, kinda like the Ysalamiri lizards
Imo Yoda absolutely had the right idea. Considering their ability to easily overpower basically any force user regardless of alignments... despite being "controlled" they are like the biological equivalent of a nuclear arsenal in the SW universe. Their destructive potential and inability to be truly contained by either side if used as weapons is a pretty clear indication of why its better if no one knows of their existence.
I mean, far from the worst thing they erased off the archives. This could’ve been 3 other things, easily, but I’m surprised none of those even got a mention.

Couldn't non force users simply destroy them with blasters, bombs and other weaponry? I understand the force fear for Jedi but I would assume these are no different than any other dangerous beast that could be killed.
well if they can cause such horror and fear in a Jedi, what could they do to the psyche of a non force user that has no defense of any kind against such psychological assaults with the Force? Besides, the Nameless devour the Living Force within their target, which suffuses every living being Force Adept or not. So non force users are even *more* fucked then the Jedi are.
Battle droids would help. When hearing about how most Jedi would not even see their true forms, my first thought was "camera". There is/was a Force skill for working with electronics, they'd need to build their tool.

Because "normal" People are still connected to the living force, basicly every living thing is. So they wouldn't nessesarily be sace either. Plus it would mean that the Jedi needed to admit they can't defeat these creatures, which probably would not have been great for public moral.
