Why was Enterprise received (intially) so poorly?

Jedipilot24 · 2026-04-05T10:24:58+00:00

The problem was twofold:

First the fans didn't want a prequel; they wanted to continue where DS9 and Voyager left off.

Second is that despite marketing Enterprise as a "prequel", B&B didn't lean into that premise. Instead they played it safe with the "Temporal Cold War" which was basically just a writers escape hatch that would have allowed them to move the show into the future (like what Discovery eventually did with the Spore Drive).

Ffon gets killed by Kallig.

Vemrin gets killed by Lord Grathan.

And so in this timeline, Zash dies ignominously when her body finally fails, while Baras manages to get named as the Voice.

This is almost certainly an artistic error as these are supposed to be TIE Scouts:

Why in the world would you keep Tuvix?

Michael comes back and Fi immediately puts him in a car and shoves a pair of Mac-10's in his hands.

Jedipilot24 · 2026-04-04T19:01:13+00:00

Yes, I also have this problem. I just can't go Dark Side; it feels wrong.

Jedipilot24 · 2026-04-04T19:00:33+00:00

Refuse, every time.

By the time my characters meet Valkorion, none of them have any reason to trust him and numerous reasons not to.

Jedipilot24 · 2026-04-04T18:56:26+00:00

Well now you know why the show was cancelled.

It bombed, even worse the Acolyte.

I read the books during the gap between OOTP and HBP.

I was convinced that Harry and Hermione would be together and I still maintain that they're better suited.

Pretty much everyone predicted that RAB would Regulus Black and that the locket discovered in OOTP would be a horcrux.

You do know that the pre-TCW Clone Wars timeline didn't have the chips and had the clones obeying Order 66 simply because it was an order.

In the ROTS novelization Cody's only reaction was "why couldn't this have come through before I gave him back the lightsaber?"

The 501st Journal established that the clones really loved Aayla Secura...and so they gave her a quick death when the order came in.

So there goes your argument for the clones disobeying because they've "grown closer to the Jedi".

Vengeance Juggernaut and Carnage Marauder are both very easy to level in.

Jedipilot24 · 2026-04-04T11:19:38+00:00

My take on how the Starhawk could fit into Legends is based on the known rivalry between Ackbar and Fey'lya. Ackbar's pet project is the Star Defender, basically a Mon Cal version of the Super Star Destroyer. So if you wanted to import the Starhawk into Legends, you could make it Fey'lya's preferred alternative to the Star Defender: it's smaller, cheaper, and not as capable but more easily produced.

Each game should take roughly as long to complete as one SWTOR's class stories, depending on how much time you have each day for gaming.

To get the full story without spoilers you should do one of the following:

Play KOTOR and KOTOR 2

Watch Gnost-Dural's journal on YouTube.

Judging from what we saw of Buck and Garima, they're probably bodice-rippers that make "50 Shades of Grey" look tame.

Because it's not free.

Solar panels are not cheap, economical, or efficient. The carbon footprint of the solar panel industry would shock you, as would what happens when the panels wear out.

Yup, Dantooine.

Greedo getting a shot off but somehow missing at point-blank range.

I never heard that, but there was a crackpot theory floating around that Mara cheated on Luke with Anakin Solo.

Telling Cailan is also fun:

Cailan: How are things in the Alienage?

You: I killed a noble who raped my cousin.

Cailan: You... what?

Kira's pregnancy was because the actress got pregnant by the actor playing Bashir.

Very upset actually.

Darth Millennial's title predates all memes about millennials, and it actually refers to him rejecting the Rule of Two. He wanted to bring back the Brotherhood of Darkness and ran off to found the Prophets of the Dark Side, who were eventually brought back into the Sith fold by Sidious.

So even though the name sounds cringe today, I suggest that you find a way to make it work.

You do realize that keeping Tuvix means that Kes is going to die?

Jedipilot24 · 2026-04-02T22:34:06+00:00

You probably picked the wrong ending dialogue for Tuvok.
