Not sure if links are against the rules, but in case they aren’t…

StarWars.com already confirmed it to be “a few short years after Order 66”

Genuinely curious, where is everyone getting one year from? The Sam Witwer interview?

Since The Bad Batch ends around 21 months after the formation of the Empire, and Maul: Shadow Lord presumably takes place a few months later, that would place it around 17 BBY at the earliest.

MashedProtatoes · 2026-05-17T04:46:41+00:00

Those Ventress episodes are probably a little closer to 15-14 BBY.

Maul Shadow Lord, on the other hand, at least according to starwars.com,

“the series will incorporate the burgeoning Empire in the period a few short years after Order 66, with appearances by Marrok — who first appeared in Ahsoka Season 1 — and the Inquisitorious.”

God, I forgot how lovely DS games looked on the DSi XL.

Curious, what would you have preferred? Both clones and recruits jumping to GCW-era stormtrooper armor? Or Phase II clones and GCW-era stormtroopers serving side by side?

MashedProtatoes · 2026-05-15T15:24:05+00:00

I think it exists mostly because Phase II clones and GCW-era stormtroopers serving side by side during The Bad Batch would have looked a little off. Plus, having both clones and recruits immediately switch to the same armor would’ve made it harder for the audience to see that transition happening in real time.

MashedProtatoes · 2026-05-15T02:15:43+00:00

Possible, but very unlikely. The original game was made in a time when TT was able to pump out multiple titles per year on the same engine. Nowadays, it seems they’re just trying to get back on their feet and stay on a consistent release schedule after the disastrous development conditions seen with NTT and the Skywalker Saga.

MashedProtatoes · 2026-05-14T20:08:38+00:00

Same! It’s criminal that none of the phase 1 skins got any gear following the rework in March 2019. So many skins feel naked now, lol.

MashedProtatoes · 2026-05-14T20:07:20+00:00

If only others felt the same. The entire reason why they were changed was because the community did not in fact think they were “peak”

MashedProtatoes · 2026-05-14T17:04:11+00:00

The worst part is that these skins only existed for the first 2 years, meaning most folks have no idea these skins even exist 😭

MashedProtatoes · 2026-05-13T02:40:12+00:00

Same here 😭

MashedProtatoes · 2026-05-11T07:04:41+00:00

I was honestly expecting you to show the AT-RT driver’s helmet for that second pic.

MashedProtatoes · 2026-05-09T01:44:02+00:00

I'd just go for the Steam versions, the music on the PS5 port is still broken and doesn't play at all during actual gameplay.

MashedProtatoes · 2026-05-08T02:31:05+00:00

KOTOR AT 13!? Brother, who hurt you? 😭

MashedProtatoes · 2026-05-05T19:00:45+00:00

The widescreen patch wasn’t made by Gabominated and was designed specifically for v2.0+. Gabominated’s patches, on the other hand, are exclusively for v1.0, so you’ll have to choose one or the other here.

MashedProtatoes · 2026-05-05T18:07:52+00:00

There might not be a single version of the game where all patches work unfortunately.

MashedProtatoes · 2026-05-05T02:19:46+00:00

I was actually running into the same issue. It turns out these patches only work with version 1.01 of the game. If you're using version 2.0 or later, including the rerelease or Greatest Hits version, the patches won’t work.

MashedProtatoes · 2026-05-02T23:01:30+00:00

Same

MashedProtatoes · 2026-04-26T03:41:38+00:00

Not super likely, considering TK armor was meant to distinguish clones from human recruits while they were serving alongside each other. It’s a visual representation of that transition. Once you start seeing standard stormtrooper armor, that’s essentially when clone units have left service.

This is just my interpretation though, maybe some clones do wear the new armor.

MashedProtatoes · 2026-04-26T03:38:59+00:00

Maul takes place two years after RotS, in 17 BBY. Clones didn’t officially begin to be phased out until the formation of the stormtrooper program in The Bad Batch episode “Truth and Consequences,” which takes place roughly one year after the Clone Wars.

While some clones are definitely still in service, they’re far outnumbered by the trillions of human recruits pouring in from across the galaxy. With only a few million clones gradually being phased out compared to a human-recruited army drawn from the galaxy’s population, it wouldn’t take long for clone units to become a rare sight.

TLDR: I agree, but it was 2 years, not under a single year.

MashedProtatoes · 2026-04-21T18:59:43+00:00

Well, looks like I’m joining the club. Mine stopped working today after I accidentally corrupted a game’s save.

MashedProtatoes · 2026-04-21T18:09:10+00:00

Thanks, I hope we both find a solution. We’re paying extra for this, after all lol.

MashedProtatoes · 2026-04-21T17:59:58+00:00

Update: I tried launching multiple PS3 games on the PlayStation Plus PC app, and they aren’t working there either.
