The sith embody power and ambition. A lot of people are attracted to that
O.O but there methods *shivers* guess I'll see more :)
@@Gaxelle Their methods are untenable to us because we have enjoyed decades of peace in a rather compassionate society. Citizens of the Empire and of the galaxy in general have been hardened and scarred by life, so the methods of the Sith aren't quite as unpalatable as they are to us.
There's also the fact that the Empire was (up until recently in-game) an Imperial Cult (look that up if you don't know what it is) and is a society where the military and the government are highly intertwined. There aren't really any true politicians in the Empire. Excluding the Sith, the Empire is essentially run by the highest-ranking military personnel. So to your average Imperial citizen the Sith are still somewhat "holy" figures whose commands are not to be questioned, and whose minds are "above" their own intellectual capabilities. And since political power and military power are so heavily intertwined, almost every Imperial citizen has gone through boot-camp and become physically and mentally tougher. Only high-ranking Imperials actually know that the Sith are rather ordinary but powerful individuals who have had really, really tough/harsh lives.
@@StarboyXL9 Shut the FUCK up
Dang bro, getting triggered by the facts? lol.
@@Charlie-eh2hy people who come from the bottom relate to the sith
It's crazy how the only ones who seem to realize how awesomely powerful super powered Force users are, is animators.
You can do more in animation than live action
"Why do people support the Empire and the Sith?"
Because they have cake
Wrong, they have cookies
They have both actually
@@issa4767 They have WI-FI
They have cookies too
R B yeah yeaaaaah
The sith are so brutal because they are consumed by the dark side of the force and when the jedi had first defeated the sith they ruthlessly tried to exterminate every last one of them and the sith want revenge.
Yeah. I love the Old Republic and the Legacy because of that
Jedi wasn't flawless, they did a lot of shit too
pretty clear that the Sith are still in the wrong though O_O
@@spicy2492 If a group of people wiped out almost your entire civilisation wouldn't you be pissed? The shit they do is dark but they defo have a good reason to do it.
@@spicy2492 for wanting to explore every aspect of the Force....
Julianus Victor the sith were wiped out because they were evil and tried to destroy the republic; don’t try and pull the victim card because they DEFINITELY initiated the conflict you’re talking about along with every other one
I want to see a Sith/Jedi battle of this caliber on the big screen. Hopefully we might get a taste in the Knights of the Old Republic film.
:O KotOR film?
@@Gaxelle It's in development! No idea when it's slated to actually come out though. Probably 2022 at the absolute earliest.
yeah its in the early stages where the script is reportedly close to being finished according to decent leaks from buzzfeed, but it is the early stages where it could be scrapped at any moment and it has not technically been officially announced yet despite lucasfilm president saying that something kotor related was being produced but had an uncertain future
I agree, considering how well done the cinematics for Kotor are, that would be amazing. Really cool stories, great fight scenes, etc. Hopefully they make a Kotor film or even a trilogy. Although the GOT creators Benioff and Weiss pulled out of a deal to head a Kotor trilogy bc of scheduling conflicts from a pre existing deal with Netflix. I also heard that Keanu Reeves was being considered to have been cast as Revan, if they didn't already have the deal with Netflix. One can only dream.
Sadly, that probably won't happen. It would be deemed a "male power fantasy" and the idea would be thrown out before it ever got its chance.
KOTOR explained the dynamic really well, the Jedi are always increasingly out of touch with the needs of regular people, and often prefer not to take on big existential problems with bold action, i.e. letting trillions die during the Mandalorian wars, or letting separatists cause chaos during the prequel era.
Loved your reaction !
My opinion why is there Empire support:
you can see the flaw of our democratic methods when there are slavers, wars, criminals laughing as they walk free, companies band laws and never accounted for, junkies rampaging the weak and old, the senate does nothing for years, etc. etc. "It's the price of our freedom" "they got the right to do what they want" "it's not perfect but this is what we got"..... Hard to find the fix for this, some say order needed and full control, someone to set the standards for all, and force it on everyone. The dark side is only a tool for some on the Empire side, the ideology what matters. Not saying that's better, but not saying the Alliance way (our civilized modern way) works better either....... Even simple things your neighbour makes noise, loud music all day every day, should you make them stop? Accept even if it's wrong? At least this is what I imagine when roleplaying ;)
Cheers from Hungary ! :)
Fun fact when malgus kills Ven Zallow when you see his mask move he says "Its all going to burn."
Unfortunately the Sith Upper leadership only offered peace treaties after their victory over the Republic and Jedi.
@@dannyjohnson236 Yeah Malgus was pissed off whe he learned about that xD
@@dannyjohnson236 if it were jedi they would have killed more innocence, starting another holocaust
I support them because I love their code:
Peace ist a lie, there is only passion.
Through passion I gain strength.
Through strength I gain power.
Through power I gain victory.
Through victory my chains are broken.
The force shall set me free.
"And then *you* will be broken."
@@SuperSaiyanD48 Sometimes that's necessary to destroy enemies
I just binged your trailer reactions and I’m now subscribed lol but fun fact: these trailers actually were released in backwards order starting with the fall of the Jedi temple, to the liberation of Alderaan, and finally with the initial preventive strike on the Sith home world of Korriban.
And I still remember when this trailer first premiered at E3 and it literally made the entire crowd go silent and explode with applause when it finished. Malgus was literally a completely unknown sith at the time and he just stormed the temple no fucks given and took it over.
The SW:TOR trailers "Deceived" and "Hope" are 10 times better than the
newer SW movies. smh They are the Star Wars we love and deserve.
Rogue one is great
@@jacktheflash8478 R1 is not terrible, I'll give you that.
A great fight scene does not make a great movie. The throne room battle in The Last Jedi is just as good as the fight scenes in these trailers. Another example of a great fight scene in the sequels is Ben Solo messing up the Knights of Ren. Seems to me you're one of those people who think that if you don't like a movie you can't like any aspect of it, and a movie can only ever be great or absolute trash.
@@Danjen3ify 1. You don't know anything about me. 2. I don't have time to explain the exact same things that you just said AND explain that the Hope and Deceived trailers are mostly just action. I could explain that Bioware has taken a lot more care with it's "version" of Star Wars than the new movies have. It would take too much time to explain that the Bioware trailers illicit incredible feelings that we all should be feeling when watching a newer SW movie. I could also explain how we are all fearing that Hollywood/Disney are hopelessly incapable of loving and caring enough about SW to make great SW movies. Instead, it's easier to just have a nerdgasm with fellow nerds and exclaim "Hope and Deceived are awesome!!". Have a nice day.
Roderic Kingfield while I agree Ben beating up the knights is cool I thought they would have lightsaber proof weapons
i think that girl with him is his wife if im not mistaken?
It is
Slave turned lover turned wife indeed.
@@siliarba And then turned dead. Malgus killed her after that battle, to further enhance his connection to the dark side.
@@siliarba Then he killed her to help fuel his anger
@@grand-dadmiral He kills her because she sad his real name in front of others
Dear Gaxelle, i do believe that actress *Eva Green* would be awesome as a Dark Sith Lady since she has great talent and was amazing as Artemis in 'The 300' movie.
Hell doesn't have to be a sith just a dark side user (nighsisters for example) but I think she'd be great.
@@dikastederook6380 agreed
Imperial desing are just way cooler. Plus, Dark side offer cookies.
agreed :p
The Jedi look pretty cool in this too but yes the Sith do look nice in this.
The price is awfully high though.
I’ve always been a fan of the sith over the Jedi. The Jedi creed of ‘not emotion’ is dumb. Besides two of the most notable Jedi don’t even follow it. Plus you know, the whole taking babies from families as kids to indoctrinate into your ranks.
Sith is just like ‘hmm heard you were powerful let’s train.. kk now try and kill me’
You are aware that Anakin is the perfect showcase for why the Jedi preach distancing oneself from their emotions, right? The Force gives you an amount of power 99% of the galaxy couldn't hope to match. You have to devote your life to the art of fighting, train harder than any army in the galaxy, or possess unique physical abilities to go head to head with a knight of the Jedi Order. And that's not even mentioning the masters.
That's the reason the Mandalorians fought the Jedi so often - Mandalorians seek out the great challenges of the galaxy to hone their skills or die with honour. There is no greater challenge in the galaxy than to face a Jedi.
When you have this kind of immense power, able to manipulate physical objects as long as you can see them, convince most beings to trust you with a handwave, an uncanny intuition for truth and lie - that makes you supremely dangerous. Ruled by emotions, you could harm entire civilisations, especially ones that respect you as most do the Jedi.
.
Do me a favour and play the Jedi Consular campaign in the game (Star Wars: The Old Republic), at least until Alderaan. It deals with exactly this kind of situation - Jedi abusing their power and the dangers that holds for the galaxy, especially a galaxy on the brink of war.
Palpatine AKA The Emperor was trained by Darth Plagueis, and had spent time in meditation, looking to the future. He saw an extra-galactic invasion by a race called the Yuuzhan-Vong. The Death Stars and the creation of the Naval fleet of Star destroyers was to fight them. Palpatine knew that the only way to prepare for the threat was to centralize power. He was a bit cruel, but his intentions were pretty good.
Yeah, I don't believe in Palpy's good intentions for a minute. He wanted power.
That fleet, those weapons - useful against the Yuuzhan Vong, yes. But also to secure power across the galaxy in an Empire of unprecedented proportions. Larger than any Sith Empire of the old days, covering more worlds than the Infinite Empire even (for example, the Infinite Empire never had access to Alderaan because their force-powered ftl engines could only navigate towards Force-strong worlds such as Tatooine, Hoth, Kashyyk, and Belsavis - Alderaan, homeworld of the Kilik species, was never an Infinite Empire world)
I love the use of the lore in these trailers and the game ,especially the fact that force users can take severe physical punishment, that's why they can be thrown through rock and stuff and just walk it off
Along with the trailers to advertise the Old Republic game, several timeline videos were also made. Especially if you are interested in learning more of the lore, the timeline videos are a must watch. They will also, at least in part, answer your question as to why anyone would fight for the sith.
"Why are they so brutal?" Because they are Sith. Rage, hatred, passions fuel their need for power. Just to give some more details, that Twi'lek that was walking with Malgus was actually his wife. He would later killer her, to fuel his rage and remove a possible weakness.
It's an ideology, Peace is a lie, there is only passion. Through passion, I gain strength. Through strength, I gain power. Through power, I gain victory.
great reaction videos, half way through watching return you release this one so excellent timing, also you have now gotten me to update the game and start playing it again so thanks for that
Awesome, thanks for the compliment!Let it fuel your desire in the SW universe to grow! The game is so good, nice to come back to.
i read Deceived this week and THEN saw this trailer and i thought it was an exact replica of the fight scene in the book. turns out the author, Paul Kemp saw *this* and wrote the scene based on it!
I'm really happy to see that you watched the original version of this! There's another one that they cut together later (one that's usually used in compilations of these cinematics) and it used a different take for the voice over. This one sounds way better imo.
Peace is a lie. There is only passion.
Through passion I gain strength.
Through strength I gain power.
Through power I gain victory.
Through victory my chains are broken.
The force shall free me.
There's a lot of misinformation in your comments about the Sith and their history. The first conflict between Jedi and Sith, the True Sith, was the Great Hyperspace War, but the battle between the Light and the Dark sides of the Force have gone on for a long time and this battle for supremacy (not balance) is what colours the perception of the Sith in-universe. The True Sith are a race of red-skinned humanoids (you see one in the "Return" cinematic) but the main conflict comes from the Jen'jidai, the Jedi Exiles.
Thousands of years ago, there was the Hundred-Years Darkness, a civil war between the Jedi that spilled over into the wider galaxy and resulted in a whole lot of people dying. Who threw the first stone, the light or the dark sides, we don't know, but, in the end, the Dark Jedi lost the war. But, instead of dealing with the Dark Jedi, the Light Jedi instead decided to let someone else deal with their problem and exiled them into Wild Space--the part of space where the Sith lived undisturbed for many thousand years. The Dark Jedi, now known as the Jedi Exiles, soon found themselves in Sith space where they promptly began murdering, raping, enslaving, and manipulating the True Sith into their servants. They were colonized. Their culture was twisted and malformed into something that benefited the Jedi Exiles. Their religion was twisted to make the Jedi Exiles seem like their god. Hell, the leader of the Jedi Exiles, Ajunta Pall, was named "The Left-Handed God".
Four thousand years after that happened, we get to the Great Hyperspace War. Two explorers from the Republic had found the Sith Empire accidentally while mapping the galaxy. The Sith Empire, rightfully so, thought this was the beginning of an invasion and multiple factions started spawning all with their own ideas on how to deal with the potential invasion. The two major factions, Ludo Kressh and Naga Sadow, wanted to either hide away from the Republic or fight the Republic head on respectively. Naga Sadow's reasoning for wanting to fight the Republic was due to him being a descendant of the Jen'jidai and desiring revenge for the Jedi Exiles' defeat some four thousand years ago. Unfortunately, he had power and influence and so went to war with the Republic.
The war lasted one year and was kinda small compared to other wars, even if people like to hype it up, and the Empire lost. The Republic then decided to make sure the Sith died out and started bombing their plants, killing anyone with red skin, destroying their cultural artefacts, their religious artefacts, their homes and livelihoods, forcing a massive number of Sith to flee on a mass exodus out of their home. After that, the Sith waited and waited, rebuilding their lives and plotting revenge for the genocide of their people. Then the Great Galactic War happened (as we see the end of in this video right now). That's why they're so brutal. In "Return," they're so brutal because they're fighting to reclaim their homeworld. In "Deceived," they're so brutal because they're finally getting their revenge, destroying the home of the Jedi as the Jedi destroyed their home all those years ago.
The Hyperspace War and the Galactic War are the only two wars between the True Sith and the Jedi. Every single last other war between the Sith and Jedi have actually been between Dark Side Force Users who call themselves Sith (but have no connection to the Sith) and the Jedi. Darth Sidious isn't a True Sith. Darth Vader is just a Dark Jedi. Exar Kun is a Dark Jedi. Freedon Nadd is a Dark Jedi. Revan is a Dark Jedi. They're just called Sith because the True Sith were murdered and destroyed until all that was left is a shadow of their former self, twisted into something that benefits other people.
Wow, so much deep lore. Are these found in books/comics mostly since they are so far back in history?
@@Gaxelle Yeah, you can read up on a lot of things in the novels and comics. the "Tales of the Jedi" comic series goes into detail with the Sith and the Dark Jedi cult (Freedon Nadd/Exar Kun) that came after the Great Hyperspace war. The Book of the Sith discusses the Sith and the Force from several Dark Sider perspectives, including one from Sozun Syn (on of the Jen'Jidai) and Darth Malgus (the Sith we see throughout these cinematics).
[Rest of post is dedicated to discussing my reasonings for liking the Sith]
However, I will note that canon isn't perfect. The entire worldbuilding around the True Sith in canon is a mess and obviously written by people who don't actually understand what they're supposed to be writing. They try and paint an entire species as evil and bad (which is kinda racist when species in Star Wars are analogous with IRL races), and think that an Empire can last thousands of years while chronically murdering one another. They outright refuse to delve deep into the culture of the Sith and generally treat it like a Planet of Hats (TV Tropes). Like, don't get me wrong--the Sith aren't good, in canon. They're Xenophobic and Slavers with a massive mean-streak and flair for the dramatics.
The thing is, though, that the Jedi and the Republic--the Heroes of the Story--aren't any better and end up doing just as bad as the Sith. I mean, the Jedi and Republic have secret prisons where people who disagree with them, people who study what they don't want studied, and whatnot are imprisoned for life with their children being imprisoned as well and their children and their children (you see one such prison in TOR). The Jedi and Republic support slavers and support slavery by outright doing nothing about it, not counting their literal slave army of clones. Then there's the fact that Count Dooku left the Jedi Order because the Jedi Order jumped headlong into a war they didn't know everything about and ended up fighting for the bad guys who had tricked the Jedi into doing what they did.
When I say I support the Sith, I talk about the True Sith and I specifically talk about what the True Sith could've been. I talk about the Sith as a culture and people unrealized by the people writing about them, the ones with a culture unique to themselves, a people whose history is entrenched in being invaded, attacked, driven from their homes, and destroyed, who's culture is entrenched in an endless struggle to even be recognized as worthy of living. I don't support the Sith, I support what they could've been, even if I acknowledge that the Sith do bad things and need to change.
Of course, this is only me, but there are a few blogs I recommend you check out which have done much in the way of fleshing out the Sith. @inquisitorhotpants and @fluffynexu on Tumblr do great jobs exploring and expanding on the Sith.
King Of Natlanta how do you retain so much information wtf, I would consider myself to have a pretty in depth knowledge of extended lore but you literally put time stamps and detail to everything in a CZcams comment holy shit
I'm sorry if you answered this in your comment and I just didn't read it properly but were the True Sith force-user/wielders? Also, really interesting, I have to read up on the lore because you just peaked my interest.And if Darth Sidious isn't a True Sith then what is he?
@@ceoofpownage1656 The Sith are kinda my special interest. They're, as a whole, kinda horrible in their depictions but I just find them quite interesting. I also refuse to believe that an Empire could survive as long as they have while being built on the backs of chronic backstabbing and baby eating (as in, I refuse to believe that *everyone* in the Empire is as horrible as depicted).
Honestly, I don't blame the Sith. This whole war is an act of revenge because of something that the Jedi and Republic did to them. thirteen centuries before this war breaks out, at the end of a previous war, the Jedi led Republic troops in a complete genocide of the Sith (military and civilian alike) with the intent to render them extinct. The Sith came back for revenge - and good on them.
"why they do brutal?"
And on a single shoot, a stranger to the extended universe lore caught the essence of Darth Malgus character.
"Why are they so evil"
LADY THIS IS SITH EMPIRE OF THE OLD REPUBLIC ERA
Jedi are worse, look up the Sith holocaust
@@sethjenson8219 i know about that one but still, sith have done way worse things
@@SoftTheGoat6969 what could be worse then slaughtering innocents, men women and,children, billions. What's worse?
@@sethjenson8219 The early humans originating from Coruscant going on a xenophobic crucade and the following cult crusades that followed later.
Power. Ambition. Revenge. We lost everything for 1000 years because of your Jedi. And now it is time for them to pay. In blood
If we get into politics, some would say that the Rebels seek freedom and the Empire seeks order, but that's just a masquerade. As I see it, it all comes down to emotion. There is nothing more common than human emotions. The Jedi suppress their emotions and reject intimate relationships for the sake of the peacekeeping duty. Emotions interfere with those objectives causing all sort of issues that create different forms of self-harm. "Attachment leads to jealousy. The shadow of greed, that is."
That's the Dark Side's source of power, something we all empathize with. The philosophy of the Sith is summarized in: If you are happy, laugh. If you are sad, cry. If you are angry, scream. You can make mistakes in the same way you can work wonders when you are free to express yourself. Thus, since there are no rules, the one who triumphs is the strongest, the fittest.
That is why the Dark Side, especially Darth Vader, is so appealing: it is difficult to judge someone who did what they did because they wanted to save a loved one. They might want money. Maybe they want women. Or, they might want to protect the world. These are all common things people want. Things that their hearts desire. Greed may not be good, but it’s not so bad, either. Humans think greed is just for money and power, *but everyone wants something they don’t have.*
interesting Sith Code.
If you are happy, laugh.
If you are sad, cry.
If you are angry, scream.
Darth Baras would be impressed...
If you read the Darth Bane trilogy, it explains why people fought for the Sith in the first book.
best CANON trilogy of them all.
Ahh if only more people read up, so few truly understand what the Sith are about. Sith are depicted as unnecessarily evil who just want to destroy the galaxy, ironically there are Sith who want to do just that.
@@Oshaoxin And there are some Sith who do actually care for the Empire as a whole. Like your Light side dimension self Darth Imperius.
@@ranran3902 You can care about the Empire before yourself as a fully attuned Dark Side character. Take Darth Marr for example, pragmatic and decisive.
@@ranran3902 And there are some nazis that do care for the Reich as a whole. Of course, caring for the Reich, or the Empire, is not mutually exclusive with caring for their racist policies, the oppression of non-Sith (a lot of which are not covered in the Dark Side point choice umbrella), or with waging a war of aggression against everyone else because it's "right and proper" for the Empire to rule the galaxy. I mean, I play Sith (for one, the abilities are more fun), but I don't need the moral relativisation to fell good, or bad, about any set of choices that impact a fictional world. To state that "supporting the Sith Empire" from an in-world perspective, is anything at all unlike supporting the Third Reich was in the real one, was just factually wrong. Because the Empire is racist, oppressive, and the Sith as a whole, Malgus, Marr, Nox (considered to be the most likely canon version though there really isn't one) and the Emperor are all fucked up evil beyond redemption. Some are more diet versions, but all wish to destroy the Republic and submit its citizens to Sith rule, which is petty, cruel and views the plebs as a disposable resource.
"Why do people support the Empire and Sith?"
Because Sith are cool and Jedi are Scum.
On a serious note for me at least its bc they dont have any restrictions on feeling emotions they embrace them it's like stfu jedi I'll feel what I wanna feel you know.
People with no control over their emotions are assholes. If someone cuts me off on the highway, should I just give into my anger and run them off the road? Just cause you feel something doesn't make you right. Gotta keep your emotions in check. The Jedi may take it to an extreme, but it's a logical extreme considering the nature of force sensitivity.
Zekken No, you are correct that they do want to be able to express their emotions, but the Sith were originally Jedi who didn’t fully agree with the Order’s views on the force, and so they caused a big civil war and were exiled. When the exiled Jedi became Sith and built the first Sith Empire, they lost to the Republic. Because the Republic feared the Sith would make a return if peace was made, the Republic decided to bombard the planet of Korriban, killing several Sith Empire civilians and a Sith. The Sith grew to have an eternal hatred for the Jedi, they hunted the Sith to the furthest reaches of the galaxy. Eventually, the survivors of the Republics attempt to wipe out the remnants of the Empire fled to the Unknown Regions, and the new Sith Emperor rallied support of the people, claiming they would “get revenge” on the Republic for casting them out. Both sides teach that the other side is the “bad guy”. The Sith Empire isn’t ALL Sith, in fact, most of the population consists of non-force sensitives, such as citizens and soldiers. The Sith were just the elite ruling class. Lots of governments (especially in the Outer Rim) had always hated the Republic, and many planets that were corrupt could easily be bought in, not to mention the Sith at one point had one of the greatest armies the galaxy had ever seen, thus making many systems openly surrender from the threat of the full might of the Imperial Military coming down on them.

the sith suffered the sith holocost from the jedi, they return for vengence and they wont stop until every jedi is dead.
I always smile when they show the outside & the Sith Empire coming into frame, destroying the Jedi Temple & the surrounding area. XD
a little strange but okay
@@spicy2492”a little strange but okay”
*Doesn’t say how its strange*
I guess we all have to admire the things you admire right?
*Peace is a lie, there is only passion.*
*Through passion, I gain strength.*
*Through strength, I gain power.*
*Through power, I gain victory.*
*Through victory, my chains are broken.*
*The Force shall set me free.*
The Sith Code dictates only that you follow your passions. The Sith mostly use hatred as it's an easy and very passionate emotion. But any strong emotion can be used to fuel your connection to the Dark Side. The Sith way is a simple step-by-step program, and hatred and anger make said steps easier.
--
_There is no emotion, there is peace._
_There is no ignorance, there is knowledge._
_There is no passion, there is serenity._
_There is no chaos, there is harmony._
_There is no death, there is only the Force._
_The Jedi Code will guide me._
The ideal Jedi is not guided by their emotions or passions. They are the prime example of inner peace, never lashing out, never being biased. Their view is based on the universe itself and how to best serve the will of the Force.
--
In short, there's two valid reasons for joining the Sith. One, the Sith encourage you to follow your passions whereas the Jedi claim that your feelings only stand in the way of peace. And two, the Sith Code promises power in a way that's easy to understand, whereas the Jedi Code is nearly impossible to follow and doesn't promise anything.
What would you rather do? Listen to your heart and get something awesome in return? Or follow a strict set of unreasonable rules with nothing to show for it?
Very straight forward and logical explanation, thank you. I think a large portion of focus in regards to Sith is many are displayed in focusing on the more :negative" passion emotions such as rage/anger/hatred etc. rather then others. There are obvious (or not so obvious) flaws to the Jedi of course promoting the suppression of emotions, which we know to be unhealthy.
We need to see a Sith that is initially posed as a typically hateful and angry one, but who is later revealed to be a person who is driven by a fervent passion for justice, or at least their idea of it. Even better if the "good guys" of the story have done some ethically questionable things in order to achieve victory over the dark side. Now _that_ is blurring the line between light and dark.
@@disastergoblin65 That's how I play my Sith Assassin in Star Wars: The Old Republic.
She started out as a slave, and was constantly referred to as such during her training. So she lashed out violently in return. However, she never threatened anyone who didn't deserve it. Eventually, she took in a former Jedi Padawan, who acted as somewhat of a "morality chain". Now, she's a "Grey Sith". She follows the Sith Code, but keeps a balance between light and dark. She now uses her past as a slave to fuel her desire for justice, seeking out slavery and ending it wherever she goes.
Inversely, I've got a Jedi Sage whose mindset can best be described as "No second chances". Anyone who stands in the way of her understanding of peace gets no mercy, be they Sith or fellow Jedi. Despite having learned a way to break people out of mind control, she finds it simpler to just kill them to prevent it from happening again. What she does is awful, but she always finds a way to spin it into either "I had no choice" or "I couldn't risk it".
Needless to say, if those two met, the Assassin would call the Sage out on her hypocrisy and the Sage would look for any possible excuse to kill the Assassin.
Beautiful music at the end... I Like your reaction's...
May the Force be with you
You know a Star Wars trailer has reached the level of legendary cinematic, when they use Duel of The Fates, Battle of The Heroes or Anakin’s Dark Deeds.
That sith lord you saw singlehandedly defeated those guys at the entrance is none other than the incredibly dangerous Darth Malgus himself,bigger,badder and stronger than he was without the respiratory system,had it not been for the respiratory system he could've died at the hands of Satele Shan
Damn wtf i remember when this trailer came out like 8 years ago. Damn I feel so old now because I remember seeing the commercials and being able to beta test. Ahh the memories.
Fun Fact: This incident, the Sacking of Coruscant, was when Malgus became disillusioned with the Empire. Despite capturing the heart of the Republic and having the opportunity to just destroy everything with an orbital bombardment, the Empire only used Coruscant as a bargaining chip during peace talks. Malgus, who believes that the true nature of the force is conflict, was livid and declared that both the Jedi and the Sith were all heretics, unworthy of commanding the forces power.
the fact they are brutal destructive and mercyless are perfect reasons to join the Empire
The dark side is fueled by emotion. It's simple, want it take it, kill anything that gets in your way. Power is the path and the goal. Only the weak care about the details. That is the Sith way.
nope. Only weak use only dark side... (c) Dark consul .
A lot of Sith act that way. Those Sith are fools. Pawns of those who plan two or three steps ahead of the rest, who calculate without passion in order to achieve the ultimate end: Power.
Ah, and you think the republic is innocent of hurting people? People mostly follow because they are forced to. While others follow because of varying philosophies, although at the end of the day: Only the philosophies of those with power really matter(at least in the political landscape) - Like the Sith and Jedi. Because the end of the day, power of one sort or another holds the final say.
However, if you truly seek to understand the Sith - Then I suggest you watch: "We are what they made us" part 1 and 2, by dudufilms. And then watch "Kreia - Through the Eyes of the Exile."
The Sith does however mostly rule their empires through brutal hegemony.
Yes I still have much to learn about each side and reasonings.
@@Gaxelle Hope to see your reactions to them. GL with the videos. And if you still feel unsatisfied on a personal level - Then I'd suggest the Revan, and Darth Bane audiobooks(The parts about Scourge in the Revan novel give particular insight into the workings of the Sith Empire).
@@Nyarlathotep_Flagg excellent ty
The Sith have cookies! How can anybody deny a cookie?! 😱
Its probably been answered but that's Darth Malgus and his slave/lover/wife. And they are the Template for the Sith Warrior it's one if the reasons vette is the first warrior companion. Darth Malgus was immensely popular and they knew alot of people would play the warrior
There is an action figure of that mandalorian girl. Very pricey.
3:55 because they are people fighting for what they belive in
I am a sith and nobody can stop me.
People are drawn to the empire becuase it adds order to life.
The mandolorian is Shae Vizla
People will support the Sith Empire for a number of reasons. The biggest one being that of seeking power. Other reasons can be looked at the way Criminologists look at why people commit crimes in their respective countries. Some people commit crimes for power, some commit crimes to feed themselves and their families. Some do it because they've been hurt for so long by so many that they feel like they need rebel against them (what Malgus said about the Jedi essentially). Darth Revan for example, before SWTOR Revan Novel came out, was said to have sacrificed himself to the Dark Side to prevent a greater evil. "He was a man willing to wage war to save others." -Kreia
If you see the full picture you basically see, Sith aren't necessarily evil and Jedi aren't necessarily good, same with empire or republic. The couple minute videos make it look like Sith are just pure rage and destruction, and there is a kernel of truth to that. But with a deeper look you find out that's far from the truth. It's mainly different ways of life, if drained down to a few sentences, the core belief of Jedi and Republic is "It is an obligation of the strong to protect the weak and stand through unity" and with Sith and Empire it becomes "If the strong always protect the weak then they shall remain weak and be prayed upon by the strong, it is up to the strong to allow the weak to find a path to become strong, not to obstruct that path."
...more like "it is up to the strong to allow the weak to find a path to become their prey so the strong become stronger at their expense and laugh at their weakness"... and in the case of Sith, fuel their Dark Side by "enjoying" the pain, the rage, the hatred and the wrath. Those are the rods the Inquisitor must assemble in the Tomb of Naga Sadow on Korriban. A warrior builds up rage, not focus, determination or whatever. Darth Malgus even murdered his twi'lek lover because his feelings were "holding him back" (as she was the weak point his fellow predators would exploit), and in turn the rage of being loveless and being the murderer of his love took him even further in the dark side, ie more sith power. All Sith say the Force is there to serve THEM, unlike the Jedi who hope to serve the Force. But some Sith say going too deep in the Dark Side will only make you its mindless toy. Even the Sith commander on Oricon recognizes that.
Love how she is such a pure jedi lover. I know this is an old vid but you gotta learn the lore. The reason for the sith hate of the Jedi is because of the sith holocaust. Look it up. Its the most horrible thing the Jedi ever did, the killed billions of the sith. Innocent women and children included. I'm a sith supporter at heart. And it warmed my soul to see the Jedi finally get their collective asses kicked in their own temple no less where the should have been strongest. The sith arent bad people, they are just not bending to the Jedi way of life and are free to draw power from another side of the force. I'm kinda ranting so I'll just say this in closing. ALL HAIL THE SITH!!!!!
The Sith are right.... Knowing the galaxy is weak now becuase of those terrorist rebels and one jedi left, the galaxy is done, we brought peace the terrorists took it away
I applaud you! :) Greetings from Darth Imperius!
Honestly it depends on the individuals. Like fuck the emperors but I’d worship darth Malgus or Marr.
I mean the only reason the Sith won was because the majority of the Republic's forces and the majority of the powerful Jedi were at the peace summit. So this was really a cowardly attack on the Sith's part since they were the ones who called for the summit in the first place. They attacked because most of the strength was away from the planet. They probably would have gotten their butts kicked if they tried that any other time.
That said I do like that the Sith are kind of like Ancient Rome in the aspect that they always compete and kill each other for power.
@@fuckyoutubecomments7530
If I were to pick a side I will be a Gray Jedi or follow the original way (Je'dai Order)but I like the powers given by the dark side. Well there was a Sith Lord that did no evil he just studied the dark side and mastered his abilities. He didn't conquered the galaxy but he did conquered the stock market.
The Jedi(Ashlan), actually attacked the Sith(Bogan) first. Hunted them down across the galaxy and wiped them out. It's why the Sith are so brutal towards them and why they seek to exterminate the Jedi, to get revenge for what the Jedi did to them.
That mandalorian with the jet pack was stealing the dark Saber
if you want to foind out why the jedi and sith hate eachother look up "Revenge Of The Sith - Lost Home / We Are What They Made us"
..oh, it's so easy to put blame on others ... probably the hate only comes from themselves and the uncontrolled emotions they allow to be guided by ...
Fun fact: the twi'lek accompanying Malgus is his lover/slave who later was killed by him so no one would exploit his weakness.
The Dark Side has cookies
Those neglected by the Republic sought aid by the empire, and they took advantage of that immediately. Not to mention the massacre of korriban after the first sith Republic War that had led to a Republic victory. They had thought they completely annihilated the empire because they purged planets of their presence, civilian and military alike, on their crusade to end the empire. That's what led to the growing hatred between the empire and Republic. One massacre and battle after another.
Xelles hair was on point on this day :P
The Empire brings order. They bring prosperity to all who fall in line. Under the Empire's rule, crime rates go down drastically and productivity sky rockets.
Yeah, through martial law and slave labor.
The ends justify the means. The individual is nothing. Only the Empire matters. Sacrifice for your fellow man and the galaxy will be stronger than ever.
@@MadHatter_920 No thanks. Give me liberty or give me death. Only the weak would trade freedom for security. And they only attach themselves to causes deemed greater than they are to make up for their own ineptitude and give themselves a sense of purpose in their otherwise meaningless life. Although in that context, I suppose they deserve a lifetime of servitude and oppression.
This is Darth Malgus the Great in all three videos, Return,Hope and Deceived from young age to mature
That's why people 😍 Star Wars, shit like this. Awsm content
Darth Malgus and his twi'lek wife, the bounty hunter is called Shae Vizla :)
If you really want the answer to your questions about the sith. I highly HIGHLY recommend you listen to or read the book of Darth Bane Path of Destruction. It will tell you why the sith believe what they believe.
I always found Jedi are equally destructive or more so. They just prefer to lie and try to justify themselves. The sith are honest.
brutally honest but honest the jedi will claim there fighting for peace while in realtiy there fighting for the republic they share were as they sith pretty much say ''screw it well do it ourselves for ourselves and ain't no one gonna stop us''''
You know what would be good if watched a youtuber called dudufilms he makes video that explains star wars lord and he does one the answer you seek, I believe it's called revenge of the sith lost home.
Thanks Sir! Will keep in mind :D
The dark side has been compared to a narcotic and that is, in my opinion, an extremely apt comparison. It rewards you for giving in to your baser instincts, and the more you indulge yourself the greater the rewards. It actively encourages your descent into greater and greater heights of cruelty and self-interest.
Let's face it; being a Jedi is HARD. You are constantly needing to practice self-denial, discipline, and selflessness. That's a big reason why starting young is a requirement for most Jedi. Most people have to be raised in an environment that dogmatically preaches such self-control if you want to reliably produce light-side users. Meanwhile, almost all Sith (especially post-Bane) are recruited as adults, because by then they've already developed their sense of self-entitlement.
The say their order is actually after peace and the only way to achieve this peace is complete dominance. They have a form of government called Kratocracy where only the strongest rule.
People support the Sith/Empire for lots of different reasons. For the Sith though it’s about mutual intolerance-and if you look up the legion of Letto you’ll see that originally they were one order that actually studied the whole force and weren’t a political body.
But for social reasons the light side became more dominant and a number of the order left to study the dark side.
After a while the Jedi got tired of the competition and set out to exterminate the Legion-who hadn’t actually left their monastery world.
The survivors fled and eventually found the Sith species who were naturally attuned to the dark side.
The rest is history, with both sides doing terrible things-the Jedi just have a better PR department that help explain away why they help enforce unfair rules, kidnap kids for their order, etc.
nope...
The sith have more control over their government. And the light side is usually more lax and the lack of a strong governing body irritates some people.
This trailer shows us the real power of Darth Malgus who is my favorite Sith Lord
Become my apprentice learn to use the dark side of the force
Darth Malgus pleasure, address please, time and money I need to give you?
This event took place 3600 years ago b4 the Empire Strikes Back
SWTOR is a really fun game, I've been playing since 2013, and I am still very much enjoying it.
I only wish I was better at socializing so I can get friends along to play the parts that require more players...
The trailers do a great job of showcasing the different abilities the different classes can use.
Eleena Daru ( the blue Twi'lek ) is Darth Malgus’ wife
People supported the Empire because they saw that it brought stability and order and thought it was a better alternative than the Republic which was corrupt and grid locked by Bureaucracy, in fact the Empire was decently benevolent at the beginning.
Hi Gaxelle I subbed to your channel.
Both have their benefits and downsides. Like choosing which government you want. Democracy, communism, socialism, etc. All have benefits, but also have downsides. Darkside is just leading with an iron fist but rewards obedience. Lightside leads with morals but rewards with praise/recognition mostly it seems.
If only Disney would buy Bioware and have them make movies we can all have amazing star wars movies or tv series.
The Sith embody Strength and stability. In a universe where there is so much bad that can happen many will put up with a lot to feel like there protected. Even if some people complain that they are getting unreasonably hurt or such, as long as the markets are open and its not inconveniencing them, Look around you today its all over the place. You, like me see the Power of the Sith yet also see there self destructive side and would change it, welcome to the Gray, we have both Cookies and Milk but both sides dont like us much so shhhhhh. :)
The sith are cool 😎
It's just like the Empire from the movies we like ... some systems hate them for being an oppressing force and some other system liked them because they could provide safety for its people.
Who's going to save them from the Sith?
The empire and sith are just much cooler than the jedi or the rebels.
Thats why i always support them
depend on what era were talking about for me sith empire and galactic empire yes there awesome while the sith from any other era just seem rather stupid to me
3:48 its been two years but i bet you know very well how badass the sith are, their approach is brutal but theyre not liars, both sides produce destruction, suffering, and casualties just as much as the other so you pick your sides, the honest, power above all, absolute order or the liars, hiding behind as the "peacekeepers" facade when it fits the orders agenda, turning a blind eye when they cant handle things, sith empire seeks to gain absolute control but in a way also solve all under them no cherrypicking, the strong, smart and rich prosper while the weak is oppressed, one thing for sure the criminal syndicate wont stand a chance unlike when it was when the jedi rules, lets not act like it was any better when the jedi and the republic rule most of the galaxy, their ideas dont match the results.
People support the Empire and the Sith for many reasons. But mainly its because they believe in the actual ideals of the Empire, rather than those of the Republic.
The Empire gets less and less xenophobic as time goes on, so by the time period of the current expansions, the Empire is a pure (and brutal) meritocracy that promises those at the top wealth, luxury, and power beyond their wildest dreams, while those "at the top" of the Republic are really just public servants required to keep the populace safe and happy. People would rather fight for the Empire because they believe (some of them correctly) that they can get to the top of the heap and enjoy the fruits of that position, it gives them something to fight for, and motivation to succeed.
Even in the Empire's xenophobic days, people still fought for an supported it because they whole-heartedly believed that Sith Purebloods were the rightful rulers of the galaxy, and they wanted to secure the favor of the Sith Purebloods for their own sake and the sake of their descendants. After all, if you believe that a single faction/race is eventually going to rule the galaxy with absolute power, the logical thing to do is to butter them up and make them like you so they'll keep your descendants around as favored servants rather than enslaving them or just killing them.
The common people of the Empire follow the Sith because they believe in a doctrine of strength above all else, like the Sith. Also, at the end of the Great Hyperspace War, when the Dark Jedi that eventually became the Sith were driven from known space into the Unknown Regions, the Republic also tried to wipe out all of the supporters of the Dark Jedi. That was in totality; the Republic and Jedi Order attempted to massacre anyone even peripherally related to the dark side, including families and associates of the defeated Dark Jedi. The future Sith rescued the supporters in an uncommon act of charity, and the gratitude of their descendants eventually translated into complete loyalty to the Sith Empire, mainly the Sith Emperor and the Dark Council. It's essentially part of their culture, which revolves around military strength and a brutal, backstabbing meritocracy.
I would sum up the Sith as the embodiment of passion and freedom. Of course uncontrolled passion can lead to some terrible acts. The freedom to do whatever you want to whom ever you want can lead to great abuses. The Sith feel superior to everyone and will do what every they feel is necessary to become stronger and gather more power unto themselves. They do not share power.
Make a reaction on scene 38 reimagined
I will say this after I saw the fist move 1977, Star Wars is an saga I love!. For you to know, Darth Malgus wanna kill everyone on Corrasant, but the leaders say no, and he had to kill his twi lek girlfriend due to it make him weak, and the jedi that he did save on the way was Satile, Irony on the way :-) I really like your reaction vids, they are strong :-)
I was a part of Underverse, the Guild that led the Raid on Anchorhead that razed it to the ground sparking the massive boots in settlement guards.
Peace is a lie. There is only Passion.
Through Passion I gain Strength.
Through Strength I gain Power.
Through Power I gain Victory.
Through Victory my chains are Broken.
The Force shall free me.
The second through third line summarizes the Kanobi - Maul Fight. This is why Kanobi won.
You gotta watch the Galatic Timelines it answers all these questions
The republic is to blame for the aggression of the sith empire. At the end of the hyperspace war, the republic attacked the sith home world after defeating the sith empire and nearly wiped out all of the survivors
Love this game I think this trailer would make a great movie
Love this game too been playing it since the lvl cap was 50 before f2p before CM those were the good times
I know you probably won't see this. But my Reason to support the Empire with Palpatine is. It's a better alternative then a Republic that is corrupt and allows so many horrible things while with the Empire they enforce Law, Order and Justice. Sith Empire I just like cause they are badass but easily ambitious for power.
I play mostly empire in the game...it's just fun to be the bad guy's for a change as in other Games you're always the good guy.
I feel you, but you can even go light side and not necessarily be a bad person as empire. I just enjoy the culture of the empire: Truly a meritocracy, ruthlessly so. This makes them stronger than the republic as a whole for the most part, but they always fail in the end. If they can't fight the republic, they'd just fight themselves. Such is the nature of such a culture, and why I find it so fun and fascinating.
But we are not the bad guys, we are the siths, we just want to destroy the jedi and bring peace
The Sith were an entity on their own not linked to the Empire, the Jedi were it's own entity away from the rebellion as well, but there were Jedi consumed by the dark force and needed a place to live so they chose Corrigan which is one of the old Sith cities, the fallen Jedi since were stronger than the Sith because of their abilities took over the land but liked the way the Sith ruled which is one master and everyone under them trying to best the master, but is not because the empire, if that was the case in star wars 2 or star wars 5 they show how the Jedi used to be pro empire then defected cause of the emperor Palpatine, but that's for another time
People support the Sith because it feels good. Fear, anger, and hatred trigger the flight-or-flight reflex which floods the body with the same chemicals as crack cocaine. It's a real rush.
Also being brutal and cruel is a way to inflate someone's ego. "See? I'm so much better than my victims."
At least that's how it works with humans. I'm of the opinion that any sentient species must be wired much the same way otherwise it's doubtful they would evolve sentience.
Anyway, I liked these trailers far more then the Str Wars movies that were out at the time. Far more exciting, and painful.
The jedi drove the Sith to what they are, the sith have more freedom then the jedi, becuase of their powers of the darkside the jedi wanted them destroyed form what I understand, plus the Sith stay true to themselves unlike the jedi
