User blog:Warpgirl/A matter of opinion

Hi all,

This is just my opinion here so please don't get all in a huff about it. I'm not talking to anyone in particular because I've seen LOTS of people this would apply to.

So... I love Science Fiction and Fantasy. I love Star Wars, Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica, Supernatural, Lord of the Rings, Hunger Games, Twilight, Harry Potter... all of it.

My ideal universe would combine elements of all of these things under one roof. I love the show "Once Upon a Time" because it takes all these wonderful fairy tales and puts them all in one universe.

I've written fiction that does this as well, it's a lot of fun... but... not when I'm playing in somebody else's sandbox. And this sandbox, licensed to SOE, was created by George Lucas. It's his world, not ours, he's just letting us play in it. There is no United Federation of Planets in this universe, no sparkly vampires, no Gandalf and no Hunger Games. It's ALL Star Wars... and only Star Wars. This is an amazing universe full of wonderful things that's been around longer than I have. I feel lucky that I'm allowed to play in it. To bring in themes and plots and even characters from other stories... well to me that just insults the universe that Lucas created for us.

If I have to get rude about it... don't polute my Star Wars with your fanboy/fangirl squeeing over some other story. I'm sure those other stories have communities of their own.

Order 66...

really... come on... if every person in this game survives Order 66 that *claims* their character survives Order 66 then the Republic would never fall to Palpatine... because there would be a LITERAL ARMY of Jedi the Clones missed ready to kick his tail.

I play a Jedi, and I LOVE playing a Jedi. I LOVE my character... but I also accept that she probably does NOT live. At least I can have her go out in style... or in my style, lol, which is to have Anakin's lightsaber shoved somewhere innapropriate.

k... done ranting now... hope you don't hate me

k...luv u buh bye
