- The Yuuzhan Vong War has a lot of similarities to the prequels, and today we're talking about how the Vong turned the galaxy against the Jedi with results similar to Order 66.

Ah, RPG Sourcebook art.
Commander Sal-Solo the time has come, execute order 66.. -Warmaster Lah
Failures to stop the Vong more like... Fey'lyas.
nice! Borsk was such a jerk.
That joke hurt me
@@darthknightwingphoenix2081 he did go out like a badass, though.
@@Topher7527 I was so glad when they finally killed him in the novels. I couldn't understand why they kept him around after all those years of him just causing tons of issues. Then I got older and see what's going on in real life politics and I'm like oh, this is pretty realistic. :(
Topher7527 that he did! But if he’d taken the Vong seriously from the get-go, he’d have had no need to do that.
Oh, I remember those! Voxyn, hunting hounds, and Terminator-like combat droids to combat them!
Star by Star is, to this day, one amongst the best SW books. Out of NJO, I think I liked Traitor more, as it was more psychological and depicted the change of Jacen personality from animal loving pacifist to morally grey... Jedi, basically.
Man, setting up a game during Vong war would be epic. Imagine a game, playing as a Jedi and trying to escape from Vong and their hounds tracking you, all the while you can't even sense them with Force.
Or even better, a game about a civilian during post fall Coruscant, when you try to survive as the planet changes around you and the Vong are genociding everyone... Great horror material!
Hiding out in the under city, hoping they’ll ignore you, only for whack flora and fauna to start moving into the neighborhood
A Video game based on the Vong War would have been a awesome idea, but I bet causal EU fans would have found the game jarring if they’d never read any of the 20+ NJO books.
@@user-MidwayDisc True, that.
How many Purges of Jedi have there been? I count about four, Kreia, Nihilus and Sion's, Palpatine's, the Vong's, and Krayt's. Is there any more?
Not sure about legends but there’s the destruction of Luke’s temple in canon which is basically another purge.
Exar Kun convinced some of his Jedi followers to slay their masters. Probably doesn't count as a purge since it only targeted Jedi Masters, and it didn't fully succeed, but thought it was worth a mention.
At least in Legends, only 3 are *officially* acknowledged as Jedi Purges, despite the Jedi having suffered critical loses in other conflicts and even went into exile multiple times over the millennia.
The 1st carried out by the Sith Triumvirate after the Jedi Civil War and Revan's disappearance in the Unknown Regions, that ended in KOTOR 2.
The 2nd executed by the Galactic Empire between Order 66 and A New Hope.
The 3rd carried out by Darth Krayt's One Sith Empire in the Legacy comics, 130 ABY-138 ABY.
Personally, though, I agree that the Yuuzhan Vong War should also be counted as a Purge. I think the only reason it isn't, is simply because the NJO saga was published before the term "Jedi Purge" was introduced in the other stories.
@Chosen One It wasn't specified in the Jedi's case, only stated that they were reduced to half. I'd say there were less than 200 members when the Yuuzhan Vong invaded 'cause the Order was still in its early years, and its restoration was a slow process that took Luke decades.
What is known is that 365 trillion people in total had died all over the galaxy by the end of the war.
@Chosen One Like I said, it wasn't specified. Not all deaths happen "on-screen", you know? Just like the Jedi Purge stated that almost 10,000 Jedi were hunted and killed by the Empire, yet the death of less than 400 were actually shown.
Did these books influence George at all when making the prequels? Did they influence anyone who worked on the prequels? That’s what I wonder
Some ideas did I think
Not on The Phantom Menace, at least. Lucas had already presented its final script 2 years before The New Jedi Order saga began publication.
But what about the droid attack on the Wookies?
>famous jedi david bowie fights the yuuzhan vong
I love you dude, never change please
but what about Vong attack on the Wookiees?
After everything I learned about him, I'm surprised Fey'lya was both able to recognize the Vong lying and didn't do everything in this power to turn the Jedi over to the Vong.
Tell us the story about thracken sal solo
he died as he lived - a psychopathic piece of shit. That is all that you need to know about Thracken Sal Solo.
That slimy so and so
God I love the NJO so much. I am currently on The Final Prophecy, again. I hope you cover the Jeedai heretics at some point!
19 books of PERFECTION
Corey’sDatapad starts spitting bars 2:26. You need to start adding stuff like fast food wrappers, “BUY BLUE MILK” post-it’s, that sort of stuff around the guy holding the datapad.
I have to ask the obvious, since a previous video discussed similarities between the battles of Naboo and Dantoooine: did George essentially take influence from or straight up copy events from the NJO series and change details for his movies?
I very much doubt that. While George was aware of some of the broader strokes of the NJO, a lot of this would have been planned earlier and then already well into production for the PT by the time the NJO stuff was happening, and vice versa- they just happened to converge in a few inetresting places.
Probably the opposite. George worked on this stuff much longer and probably told them what to do for his poetry thing he loves so much. He did help with the eu a lot
Nah he didn't really care that much, basically just told them to not kill Jacen. His input on the EU was minimal and he was always clear it wasn't his vision
@@CoreysDatapad Wrong.
I wonder if Jedi Knight David Bowie would like to come and meet us but he thinks he'd blow our minds?
I think I need to Start Reading The New Jedi Order ,It sounds Epic. Great Video.
Putting out that warant for luke was probably the only thing borisk falea ever did right.
Sounds pretty dark!
The Jedi's enemies love a good purge every major story arc, or so. Katarr, Coruscant, Ossus...
"Deals" with the younglings
I'm curious about the nature of the split between Kyp Durron and Luke Skywalker. How are they similar or different, and how does that drive any sort of relationship and conflict between them.
It’s a sort of peacekeepers/crusaders for justice split, he did a video on it recently, search his name and “split the Jedi order”
@@TobeWilsonNetwork Thank you for letting me know.
