gffa:GOD, I WAS SURE WE WERE ABOUT TO WATCH TAPAL’S DEATH IN THIS MOMENT, TRAPPED BEHIND THE GLASS AND UNABLE TO HELP.But instead it’s a moment of, HOLY SHIT, THE JEDI ARE INCREDIBLE, LOOK WHAT ONE JEDI MASTER CAN DO????While at the same time it doesn’t take away from the tension, because this entire thing is a gauntlet run against probably thousands of clones. Yes, the Jedi are incredible, Tapal holding that one clone against the ceiling while walking by, laser focused on the path before him, HOLY FUCK THAT WAS AMAZING, but it’s still just a matter of time.There’s so many more clones than there are Jedi, like, that’s one of the biggest points of the prequels and how Palpatine manipulated things–the Jedi straight up did not have the numbers to fight a galactic war by themselves, so instead Palpatine created a Republic army, drafted the Jedi into service (who felt obligated to help control this tire fire as best they could, because they were the only ones who had even some experience at this kind of scale of things, and everyone was pretty much going to die a lot faster if they didn’t try to make things better), that when they all turned on the Jedi without warning, sure, you can fight your way through a lot of them.But eventually it just takes one out of those thousands and thousands to land just one good hit and the Jedi are just as mortal as anyone else.The tension between HOLY SHIT TAPAL IS AMAZING versus THERE’S NO WAY TO FACE THESE ODDS WE KNOW HOW THIS ENDS was beautifully done in this game and watching this scene just ached for it. This is how you take out these incredible space wizards who really do live up to they hype–by overwhelming them with sheer numbers and a betrayal so massive and unexpected that it literally comes out of nowhere for everyone involved, except the evil fucker who engineered this all in the first place. -- source link
