    Darth Malgus remains one of my favorite Sith Lords of all time. His philosophy on the Force and how it’s conflict, and the fact he wants to become one with the dark side rather than asserting himself above it is truly fascinating and makes him an anomaly compared to other dark lords. Not to mention he doesn’t discriminate and actively goes against the Sith Empire and their laws against other aliens joining their ranks. There’s also a novel called “Deceived” that’s based on the events on the cinematic trailer of same name that’s really good and actually features the highly underrated Jedi: Aryn Leneer.

      What's also interesting is that Malgus and Vader are very similar in alot of ways but also quite different from each other too.
      Sidious also recalled Malgus to be one of the greatest sith lords who ever lived.

      Man SWTOR is really underrated, personally I stopped playing a while ago but it's really overlooked just because the game doesn't exactly play like the cinematics. It's a MMORPG from the early 2010s what did people expect??? I actually thought the game was really great for it's story and the vastness of it all. You could really be whoever you wanted to be in a vast mmo galaxy.

      ​@@rodgill9376 Malgus is what Vader could've been if he actually wanted to be a Sith lord. Vader is just a depressed, self hating, loser and a slave to his grief. He is a slave to himself and his emotions while Malgus just isn't. He actually embodies the teachings of the Sith way better then Vader ever did.

Unfortunately budget constraints, rushed schedules, or a general lack of knowledge or care can lead to fight scenes being undercooked. The same thing can befall animated media as well though. These trailers have great choreography because the filmmakers had the time and resources to cook. Plenty of examples out there of what can happen in animated fights when they don't.

This method was greatly frowned upon, and was almost never used by either the Sith or the Jedi. The Sith claimed that it showed weakness and demonstrated a lack of power, while the Jedi claimed that this form was unsportsmanlike.

      No, she did not. She just used the other person's Saber against another. She never turned hers off and turned it on to kill someone. The form is also turning your Saber off before clashing with another Saber and then turning it back on to kill the person. The jedi master who duel welded 2 sabers to fight malgus and his faster didn't use it either. He turned it off and dodged an attack, and he only turned it back on to injure the sith master

    TOR (the old republic), is set roughly around 3660 years before the movies. This is an entirely different timeline and therefore is entirely detached from the movies, both lore-wise and plot-wise if you get what I mean. They needed wiggleroom to make a game as big as this and considering the old Kotor (knights of the old republic) games existed Kotor 3 became SWTOR, an mmo, kinda like WoW. The twins are part of a cool (meh executed tho) expansion and the yellow saber kinda means “fight/servitude for reward” in this circumstance, however yellow has another more cannon meaning.

    EDIT: About the fourth trailer, the one with the twins. That was for an expansion to the game that introduced a new enemy in the form of the Empire of Zakuul. In addition to having some wicked technology and a legion of force-users (Those gold-armored guys) that don't bother with the whole "light and dark" crap and harness the Force as a whole. Though as powerful as this Empire was, they were kinda punks. Basically the Zakuul Empire sucker-punched the Sith Empire and Republic while they were distracted with each other and owed much of their success to a fleet of hyper-advanced warships that they didn't even make (It's a long story and I honestly don't have the details down enough to explain it properly).

The body that you currently see is the one he switches to after you kill him with your created Jedi Knight . Long story short his spirit gets resurrected and returns to the father that he secretly had been living in. He gathers his secret army and attack both the Galactic Empire (Sith) and Republic (Jedi).

    Note: "BBY" stands for years Before the Battle of Yavin (the events of Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope).
    *Return*
    Timeline: 3,681 BBY
    This cinematic depicts the return of the Sith Empire. Prior to this event, it was believed that the Sith Empire was eradicated in 5,000 BBY at the end of the Great Hyperspace War.
    At this point in time, the Sith were many, with there being hundreds or thousands at a time. Darth Bane's "Order of the Sith Lords" (or just "Sith Order") was not established until approximately 1,000 BBY. We also see an 18-year-old Satele Shan (descendant of Bastila Shan and Revan) and her master Kao Cen Darach (who is the same species as Darth Maul, but an Iridonian Zabrak instead of a Dathomirian Zabrak). Darth Malgus is human, but his master Darth Vindican is a Sith Pureblood (the species for which the Sith are named).
    *Hope*
    Timeline: 3,667 BBY
    This cinematic depicts the Battle of Alderaan (a Sith invasion intended to destroy the Republic's "symbol of serenity" to demoralize them). Satele Shan (now 32-years-old) is a Jedi Knight. And the abilities you see her using against Malgus are Tutaminis (the same ability Yoda used to absorb Palpatine's force lightning in the Senate Chambers, but MUCH more powerful) and Force Burst (basically a super-powered Force Push).
    13:07 He was thinking Malgus could catch these hands.
    *Deceived*
    Timeline: 3,653 BBY
    This cinematic depicts the Sacking of Coruscant, a surprise attack on Coruscant during a false ceasefire after the Sith Empire offered to end the war peacefully. The blue-armored Mandalorian you see in this one is Shae Vizla (also known as Mandalore the Avenger). Her last name is NOT a misspelling of Vizsla. She is unrelated to Clan Vizsla.
    20:35 That move Malgus did was DIRTY AF. Pretended to be stunned by that face-bash then immediately skewer him.
    *Sacrifice*
    Timeline: 3,636 BBY
    This one depicts the Eternal Empire, a third "Force Order" that is neither Jedi Order nor Sith Empire (but definitely dark side). They are led by Darth Vitiate/Emperor Valkorion, an immortal Sith. The two boys are his twin sons, Arcann (the one wearing white) and Thexan (the one wearing black). Short story about them: Basically, while the Sith Empire and the Jedi-backed Republic were fighting each other, the Eternal Empire came in and third-partied them both, basically conquering the whole galaxy for a time until everybody teamed up to destroy them, then went back to their own war.
    26:10 A moment like this was supposed to happen in Revenge of the Sith. When Anakin is dismembered on the lava bed, his eyes are blue as he begs Obi-Wan for help one last time, but they fade to the blazing Sith red-orange-yellow as Anakin "dies" and Vader is truly "born." But it was cut.
    *Betrayed*
    Timeline: Around 3,630 BBY.
    Basically what's happening here is that Vaylin (who as you can see is the younger sister of Arcann and Thexan) was discovered to be immensely powerful (far more so than even Arcann, and potentially Valkorion himself), so Valkorion locked her away and tortured her to ensure she would never betray him (spoiler: she does, eventually, with Arcann's help). Also, the mother (Senya)'s weapon is a Lightsaber Pike (basically a lightsaber spear). Of course, it can also be detached from the stick and used normally.
    28:20 A bit more elaboration: Objectively-speaking, the dark side is not "bad" and the light side is not "good." But because the Sith (bad) use exclusively the dark side, the dark side is labeled "bad" and opposite to the light because the Jedi (who oppose the Sith) are "good." In reality, there is *only* the force (this is also the viewpoint of "Gray Jedi"). But it is true that it easier to use the dark side since it requires no discipline and offers fast power, whereas the light requires years, if not decades of training to be "strong."
    31:10 There is no real explanation for why the Eternal Empire's Sith used yellow-bladed lightsabers.
    Also, it's hard to see, but Senya actually carried *two* lightsabers on her (both blue-bladed). One is the lightsaber pike, which has the ability to extend the hilt into the pike length at any time. The other is a standard, single-bladed lightsaber. Also, the reason her lightsabers have blue blades is because she is a Knight of Zakuul. Zakuul Knights used blue blades (and the more powerful ones used orange. Seemingly, only royalty used yellow blades, such as Arcann, Thexan, and Vaylin).
    *Disorder*
    Timeline: 3,626 BBY
    This trailer was animated not by Blur Studios (who did all the previous trailers), but by ILM (Industrial Light & Magic, the special effects department of Lucasfilm). It is meant to show that even the Jedi are flawed individuals.
    35:35 Not purple. Magenta (pink), like Mara Jade Skywalker's lightsaber.
    37:26 This is NOT 100 years before Vader. This is 3,600 YEARS before Vader.
    39:30 Believe it or not, but Malgus wasn't lying.
    Note: Satele Shan was promoted to Grand Master of the Jedi Order in 3,645 BBY, almost immediately after her promotion to Jedi Master.

    • @phil385
      @phil385 Год назад +1

      I disagree with your point about there not being a "bad" and a "good" side of the force. Technically the light side is the natural side of the force, with the dark side being a corruption of the force. The dark side goes stricktly against the balance.
      The reason why we tend to think of the Gray Jedi to be the balanced ones is because the Gray Jedi are actually two different things.
      The first definition of a Gray Jedi is probably what you're refering to, which is someone who practices both the light side and the dark side. Even though these force-users should be the most balanced, they in reality most often turn to the dark side, because the dark side is nothing more than a perversion of the light side, and ends up corrupting them.
      The other definition is someone like Ahsoka Tano, who also gets called a gray jedi, or a "true" jedi. These people essentially believe in what the Jedi believed in their early days, which was keeping harmony in the force. This is also what the New Jedi Order believed in (at least in the beginning) after Luke Skywalker brought balance to the force (or debatedly Anakin did). The reason we tend to think of the Jedi Order under the republic time to be unbalanced is because they were, especially in their later years like in the clone wars. Instead of keeping harmony they had become militaristic elitist bureaucrats, with the best example being Mace Windu, who was a major supporter of jedi envolvement in the republic, and it's wars, and even developed (I know he didn't techinically create it, but he perfected it for Jedi use) a Form which used the dark side, all because he saw the force as a means of power, just like the sith, which reinforces the idea that ultimately, the dark side corrupts, either directly, or through thousands of years of militaristic culture.

Mace was definitely a clear example of how misguided the jedi became but he didnt view the force as a means of power or as some tool, that was how dark siders viewed it. Vapaad was his way of channeling his internal darkness into a force for good and is a very personal style that did not translate well when used by others considering how the co creator of the form fell to the darkside as well as his apprentice whom he taught it to.

Vodal something or other.
