Re: The Emperor Sheev Palpatine
I actually think with the name "Sheev" they were trying to draw allusions to "Shiva" the Hindu god of destruction.

Like all of Naboo has a "Hindu" theme if you can believe it.

The idea seems nice but the execution's not always all that great apparently.
And they totally missed out on the perfect opportunity to make Obi-Van Kenobi.

But kotor 2-a thoughtful deconstruction of the series that seriously questions "the force" as a concept-is not anymore... but helicopter lightsabers are canon.

Re: The Emperor Sheev Palpatine
But KOTOR is so far away from the og trilogy and doesn't affect stories Disney wants to do while still being beloved. Like sure, get rid of the guy that's literally a horse on the rebels, but why get rid of the cool shit that happened 4000 years before the parts Disney wants to focus on?

GameInformer wrote:A similar situation arose with Star Wars: The Force Unleashed’s protagonist, Starkiller. “[That name] was only supposed to be a nickname or call sign, not a proper name from the beginning,” a former LucasArts employee says. The development team hoped that Lucas would give Vader’s apprentice a Darth moniker, which at the time, was something that didn’t happen often.
“The team threw a Hail Mary to George, saying the game would have more credibility if the apprentice had a ‘Darth’ title,” a Force Unleashed team member says. Lucas agreed that this situation made sense for Sith royalty, and offered up two Darth titles for the team to choose from. “He threw out ‘Darth Icky’ and ‘Darth Insanius.’ There was a pregnant pause in the room after that. People waiting for George to say ‘just kidding,’ but it never comes, and he just moved on to another point.”

I said this in that Disney+ thread and nobody else said anything about it. It has the "wild west" aspect that I think Star Wars content has been missing since... basically OT.Mechanical Ape wrote: ↑Mon Dec 02, 2019 9:14 amRed hot take coming in here:
