Q&A – with the High Republic only set 200yr before EpI, what do you think of how different the Galaxy seems to be? That the Outer Rim is largely unknown at this point, it seems to be heading towards a technological advancement that seems unnatural for the time allowed (a bit like the tech advance between Avatar and Korra). I am not expecting to go back to the Old Republic yet, but surely 200yrs just too close in time for so much to happen in the Galaxy that is already thousands of years old. What are your thoughts?
What would you want to see In a open world Star Wars game? Like a red dead redemption. I’m aware since it’s Disney it wouldn’t be rated m but that’s ok because that’s never really been Star Wars. Would love the ability to make choices and that effects your side of the force. You could choose a dark path or light path. The game would have multiple endings based on the path you choose. Or it could be like Spider-Man PS4 with a set storyline but open world.
In regards to the "Why didn't the empire wipe out the crime lords?" Question, I think it's probably partially just to create fear and the need for a sort of police state. Like, if there were no crime lords, people would begin to question the imperial military presence everywhere, but if crime is rampant, then people would welcome that presence to protect them. Civil unrest in that case would lead to reliance on the government, which can be abused by said government.
I just started reading Resistance Reborn, and notice Ahsoka's book isn't in the timeline in the front of the book. Does that mean it's not canon anymore?
Is one of the bartenders at Chalmun’s actually EV-9D9? I was under the impression that they would be just others of the same model, since it would be weird to have one reprogrammed droid and one from somewhere else that happen to look exactly the same.
Q/A: With the music of Mongolian folk-metal band, The Hu being featured as canon music in Fallen Order, what other bands would you like to see canonized in Star Wars? Would you like to see them in cameo as a playing in the background of a cantina as well?
How do hyperspace lanes and planet rotations work in SW? Like do planets rotate around a sun like Earth does? And if so, how does that affect hyperspace lanes since they can’t be the same lanes if a planet rotates around a sun?
There’s an epidemic across the country and Star Wars released the worst series of movies yet. As amazing as Clone Wars and The Mandalorian are, they’re no reason to get masses of people together…. unless Kathleen Kennedy is a Sith Lord? Hmmm
Q&A: How familiar are you with the X-Wing Miniatures Game, and how do you think it’ll compare to Star Wars Squadrons?Personally, I’ve been a big fan of the miniatures game for several years now, and Squadrons seems like it’ll essentially be just a video game version of the same game. I’m excited!
Good luck against Andrew Mollie, it would be great to see you and Laura go Head 2 Head. And I'm really pulling for you in IG Alex, you've played well above expectations so far, including both of the 4 way exhibition matches you almost won.
Q AND A- do you guys think it was a mistake for Disney to set Galaxys edge in cannon? Seeing what universal did with Harry Potter makes me wonder what would’ve been for Galaxys edge. (I love the land btw)
I want a grand theft auto style smuggler game. Where you can create crime syndicates with your friends and do missions on different planets. That would be my dream game
Is it just me or does Molly have a total confident swagger and Alex has a nervous vibe here? She'll totally destroy him if/when they face off in the Scmoedown. ?
The thing with character customization is that they can just say "this is what the character looks like in canon in X, Y, Z" but you can change how they look.
So there's a official look for the story but you can still change what you look like.
I wasn't going to get a chance to go to Celebration this year anyway, but still unfortunate. I do get why it was canceled though and I don't blame them for taking that precaution.
That being said, I hope I have a chance to go in 2022. Chicago last year was my first Celebration and I had a lot of fun.
Q/A: after seeing the last episode of the Mandalorian behind the scenes (which I assume you have!), were there any easter eggs or connections you missed? I had no idea that the bartender droid was voiced by Mark Hamill
As a 'consolation prize', would be nice if SW: Old Republic had virtual events & quests to attend digital panels. I mean, if Fortnite can do it, then why not???
Q/A: Have you ever played the old PC X-Wing series? Especially X-Wing Alliance? It has been continually upgraded graphically over the past 20 years and now has SteamVR support. It's what I'm playing to get ready for Star Wars Squadrons in VR.
I don't believe Palpatine's desire to live forever is betraying the rule of two. I think the point of the rule of two is to create someone powerful enough to live forever and be an absolute ruler.
About Celebration… I don't think anyone was surprised that the in-person event was canceled – I think the only surprise was that they waited so long to actually cancel it. BUT… I am actually really surprised that not only are they seemingly NOT having any kind of virtual event in its place, but that they are waiting until 2022 to have the next Celebration. I agree that Celebration was probably skipping next year because of D23 — but it's not 100% guaranteed that there will be a D23 next year. If tickets for D23 don't go on sale this year in July or August, it might mean that it is not happening next year. Disney has to get their parks back up and running and hopefully not deal with any sudden waves of COVID-19 cases arising from reopening the parks. And they have to get their TV series and movies back into production. Disney might want to skip D23 in 2021, just to hopefully give the virus more of a chance to ease up and all of their projects and businesses a chance to get back to normal. So, it is entirely possible that we could have a 2021 without a Celebration OR a D23! That being said…
"The Mandalorian" is a huge hit for both Disney+ and Star Wars in general. There are (unconfirmed) rumors that The Mandalorian might only go as far as Season 3, which would mean it would end in late 2021, if that were true true. (There are also rumors that there could be a Mando movie — but not for several years.) Given the success of this series — fans have been eating up all of the info and bits of news that have rolled out for the first half of this year — and given the news that there are plans to essentially intersect Mando with other Star Wars series in one shared universe, it seems like having a little virtual version of Celebration in August might have been warranted? lol They could have still had panels featuring actors and directors online. They could have officially announced Rosario Dawson as Ahsoka Tano. They could have premiered the first Mando Season 2 trailer online. They could have made any surprise Star Wars announcements that they planned to make at the actual in-person convention. I don't understand why they are skipping a virtual panel, unless Comic-Con's virtual event is going to have Star Wars & Mandalorian panels and a trailer. Emerald City Comic-Con is going virtual. ATX went virtual. San Diego Comic-Con is going virtual. DC is having its big FanDome event. Why is Celebration sleeping on this one? lol
I always thought that when Palpatine took over the galaxy, and the empire was born, that was the entire goal for darth Bane. I figured that was the whole purpose of the rule of 2 and that bane would've been proud to see Palpatine's empire. Just not proud of what came of it
Q/A, Could you tell me about Derilyn, It's an Imperial Mining planet, but I couldn't find anymore info on it.

Question, do you think they will release the mandalorian on DVD and if so when do you think they will?
Mollie is such a cutie! 🙂

Hey, why don’t y’all play KOTOR on the channel for the new people?
Q/A: Do you think we could see clan wren in the mandalorian?

After Squadrons the next thing I’d love to see os either a proper SW RPG or a good RTS, Empire at War style.
Next game, Empire at War 2

Do you think it’s possible to cram the original legends Thrawn trilogy to canon or at least a story revolving the main trio and Thrawn post endor?
“Can’t remember HU did the song for Fallen Order”
My playlist would be Guardians of the Galaxy inspired. Its perfect for dogfights
Definitely listening to Rings Of Saturn
Well, someone DID make an X-wing apprecation video set to "Danger Zone…"
I want a grand theft auto style smuggler game. Where you can create crime syndicates with your friends and do missions on different planets. That would be my dream game
Is it just me or does Molly have a total confident swagger and Alex has a nervous vibe here? She'll totally destroy him if/when they face off in the Scmoedown. ?
How come Revan & Malik got to keep their names upon becoming Darth?

So there's a official look for the story but you can still change what you look like.
If you two could be a Mandalorian clan, what would your signet be
Kotor in sequel trilogy wouldn't be kotor Haha ??
Star Wars Celebration 2020 Cancelled. you think????

Q/A : Do you think the game mechanics for Squadrons will be the same as the old X-wing games ?
Love Big J great local guy. Commissioned him to make pops of my fiancé and I.
grow a beard!
You were very close. The band is called The Hu.
Do you expect to see Thrawn in any of the upcoming shows or movies, if so, where do you expect to see him
Why can't a Kotor remaster be canon? Why does it have to be legends?
As a 'consolation prize', would be nice if SW: Old Republic had virtual events & quests to attend digital panels. I mean, if Fortnite can do it, then why not???
Q/A: Have you ever played the old PC X-Wing series? Especially X-Wing Alliance? It has been continually upgraded graphically over the past 20 years and now has SteamVR support. It's what I'm playing to get ready for Star Wars Squadrons in VR.

Does anyone know the playlist to those Alphabet Squadron playlist

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
