1. legends or new canon?I like aspects of Legends, but boy does a lot of it go off the rails. If New Canon has anything over Legends continuity, it is having a group of people policing stories for both a general quality control but also an understanding of what is and isn’t Star Wars. That being said, I do appreciate that Legends provided such a detail and texture to the universe. While I vastly prefer New Canon, I miss the exhaustive lore there was for the wide variety of different species and planets that is mostly no longer in use.

5.  Most overrated character I answered this already for  @fang11803 but here it is again:

Did you mean every character in Rogue One? As much of a fan I am of Boba Fett, the guy honestly is just a background villain who took off for having a cool ass design. Legends Boba had a pretty solid personality and story that sprung up around him due to the huge cult following that developed, but in current canon Boba is pretty  unremarkable. But he sure does look awesome!6. most underrated characterI wouldn’t call her underrated considering that she has her own comic title, but I wish more Star Wars fans were aware of just how great Doctor Aphra is. I mean, a chaotic neutral Indiana Jones that is also the first queer woman and woman of color to lead their own Star Wars title is a pretty big deal. She’s also hilarious, unpredictable, and just about pretty much everything I want out of a Star Wars character. Seriously, read her comics. She’s awesome.

10. thoughts on yoda?@fang11803 also asked me this one:I love kooky, strange wise-man Yoda with a sense of humor, but not so much the Yoda we see in the prequels. Keep the little green mystic with a chip on his shoulder and I’m happy.25. character you wish had more development or screentime@fang11803 again:Did you mean the entire cast of Rogue One? I do think that a clearer understanding of Mace Windu would’ve benefited the prequel films. In retrospect, it very much seems that Windu is intended to be Anakin’s antagonistic force within the Order, but also symbolic of the sort of misguided philosophy that the Order had adopted in its final years. The Clone Wars hints at this, but again never fully dives into it. I think it would have benefited both the films and the series if a little extra detail was provided for understanding both the character and what he means thematically.

28. worst type of fan

oh boy. this is a lot and i’m gonna have to dredge my memory a bit. also, i’m defining this mostly as ‘didn’t like, didn’t think was interesting, would prefer to forget’, though i’m making exceptions for people who really drew my ire.

star wars: not to be basic, but jar jar. or jabba. they both start wih ja and they both suck. bonus answer is george lucas, which almost even works since he did cameo shit

dragon age: i really don’t care for jowan or magister erimond. i frequently forget that sebastian exists and i don’t like him when i remember

mass effect: least favorite companions? kaidan/ashley. i have never, once, been able to muster a single emotion regarding either of them, aside from the initial shock the first time i made ‘the choice’. i also didn’t care for jacob. and i thought benezia was terribly underwritten and poorly executed, as well as poorly voice acted.

legend of korra: i never liked wu; he was pretty much a waste of space and he cluttered the last season terribly. unalaq was a terrible villain, even though i really like season 2 he was so bland and bad it puts a damper on the whole thing.

I too have strong feelings on the Lancers. They deserved better and now I am sad.

Interesting, can't comment on the Thordak one yet but would love to chat about Percy at some point - he is one of my favourites both as a character and in his execution.

Andrew please how could you forget Kel Dor my crops are dying.

Go to bed you absolute madman!

Fjord and Nott are my faves, closely followed by Caleb, then Jester, Yasha, Mollymauk and Bea bringing up the rear.

already answered reflex, so:

dexterity: oh goodness. there was this one time, i was playing a divination wizard with the portent ability which lets me replace a roll with one i’d rolled previously (in this case, a nat 20), and my character and her gf were about to get blasted, killed, and turned into zombies by the blast by the evil god dragon that was the end boss of the campaign--but we were playing with nat 20 trumps half damage rules, so replaced that and my dm allowed me to throw myself, and my unconscious gf, off the fortress wall and onto the ground to save ourselves. which was pretty cool. glad i saved that roll. there was also this time when we were all about to die and i covered myself in undead goup and crawled around with like 1 hp left and rezzed people while monsters tried to find me and somehow failed; if i hadn’t rezzed that person we likely all would have died. and then there was the whole clipping through the universe thing i mentioned earlier, and the harpsichord thing (i played the FUCk out of that harpsichord)

luck: idk, man. too many good experiences. once we carried our halfling around in a really big cooking pot and it actually worked and that was pretty beautiful. there was also this really dope puzzle based on like, our character’s emotional and mental state that was really, really fun to work through that i still remember really clearly. also when our barbarian party member flesh puppy revealed he was actually a really intense, and stuffy as hell, method actor and everyone flipped the fuck out; followed by us playing out a scene from those star wars shakespeare books as a distraction for that same handsome jack angel guy directed by Mikhail De Beigh. way too many to decide on just one
