The Jed Satele and the soldier Jace ended up having a child called Theron Shan woh became a republic spy. Satele went on to become the Jedi Grandmaster while Jace become the Supreme Commander of the Republic Military.
Og starwars galaxies was amazing.
Tbh these trailers are the best I’ve ever seen in any franchise! This is Star War’s at its peak.
totally agree
Only thing that comes close to me are the old Halo live action and cinematic trailers.
@@sweezymoney Facts!
Return choreography best in Star Wars change my mind
@@NPClownumber81googolplex Facts! Wish we got an Old Republic mature series with this level of quality, choreography, action, writing, grittiness, tonality, etc.
For the info, the armors of the Republic and Sith soldier look so much to the Clone Trooper armor for a simple reason. It's based on Mandalorian armor since the Jedi Mandalorian war, mostly because they saw it as most practical.
yeah tbf after you get your ass kicked that hard you start to think "hmmm that armour might be worth a look" xD
Came here to say that! Tons of armor in the Star Wars universe has been based on Mandalorian armor. Maybe not the most creative thing, but it does make sense lorewise.
Eh as a swtor fan, i still think it looks too close. Wished they kept the kotor looks instead.
The first three trailers; Returned, Hope, Deceived was about the vanilla game content.
The next two with the twins and girl was the Eternal Empire expansions (2015). Prince' Arcann and Thexan. Vaylin, their sister. Emperor Valkorian, their father.
Last trailer was for the current expansion, Legacy of the Sith (2021). Content for this is still slowly but surely rolling out. The next story chapter should be dropping very soon...hopefully.
I've been playing this game on and off since launch. As someone mentioned earlier in the comments, it is one of the few things that still feels Star Wars nowadays.
It's a shame your both never got into it. Swtor has some of the best Star Wars content out there. It's writing is better than most movies, and TV shows.
The other faction is Zakuul, the Eternal Empire. The father is an aspect of the Sith Emperor. Yes the girl is the sister to the brothers. She has a very tragic story.
And she makes it everyone else´s problem.
@@Matej_Sojka The fact she lets Senya go in that fight; just so she can see her massacre the voss helping Arcann.😩
The timeline is about 3,500 to 4,000 before the Skywalker Saga. They also tie in very closely to Knights of the Old Republic and Knights of the Old Republic 2: Sith Lords and set three hundred years after these games.
- Return: about 38 years before the start of the game. This shows 6 of the main classes to play: Jedi Knight (Kao Cen Darach, the Zabrak Master), Jedi Consular (Satele Shan, the Padawan), Smuggler (Niko Okarr) and Trooper (Jace Malcolm) all Republic faction. On the Imperial side: Sith Warrior (Malgus) and Sith Inquisitor (Pure Blood Sith Darth Vinidcan).
- Hope: The war has raged for 10 years. Satele now a full Jedi, possibly a Master. Jace Malcolm, CO of Infantry Squad 326, code name: Havoc Squad. Malgus now a Darth.
- Deceived: Another 14 years have passed. Darth Malgus and his wife, Eleena Daru (the Twi'lek) go to the Temple. Master Ven Zallow confronts Malgus. Meanwhile, redheaded Mandalorian Shae Vizla (representing the Bounty Hunter class) helps takedown security. The Temple falls...soon after, The Empire and Republic sign the Treaty of Coruscant...10 years of peace. In the interim, Satele Shan (a major NPC in the game for the Jedi Knight) becomes the Grand Master of the Jedi Order. Darth Malgus is a Dark Council member, and shows up on the very last planet of the base game.
The base game starts here. The only other class is the Imperial Agent (a James Bond like story in Star Wars). The game is fully voice acted and is amazing. Each class has a male and female voice actor, and you can play up to 12 different species once you unlock them. It is a game you can play at your own pace, and it is free to play. You are right, there is a whole lot of content to play, and the base game has about 200 hours of gameplay with the class stories alone. If you subscribe for just one month, you become preferred and all expansions to the date you subscribed open up for you: The first two expansions are Rise of the Hutt Cartel and The Shadow of Revan...Leading to the two biggest expansions...
- Sacrifice: The promo for the Knights of the Fallen Empire (KotFE) expansion. Setting the stage for the Eternal Empire of Zakuul, ruled by the Immortal Emperor, Valkorian. His sons are Arcann (in the white) and Thexan (in the black). The game expansion takes place soon after The Shadow of Revan, and then jumps 5 years very quickly...
- Betrayed: The promo for the Knights of the Eternal Throne (KOTET) expansion, introducing Senya Terall, the mother of Arcann, Thexan, and Vaylin...the girl. She was once very much in love with Valkorian. This expansion flows immediately from the previous one, as it is one big overarching story. All told, I think that the timeline in the game is about 15 years or more from when the player character starts the base game to the end of the current expansion.
- Disorder: The last cinematic was for The Legacy of the Sith expansion...although it is more like a huge Mandalorian storyline.
Malgus never reached the council. He was head of one of the empires expiditionary forces during the players main story before the expansions. He also appears atleast via holo several times tasking the players with flashpoint objectives. Such as Hammer station and a tomb of a sith i can't remeber the fps name
@@RobertJones-vb2qi i think at one point malgus betrays the sith empire
Yes, at the end of the base game, Malgus has gone rogue and tries to create his own Empire, on the planet Illum. Malgus is fed up with the Sith Empire's infighting. Time and again he has handed them victory, only for the other sith to squander it. Also, he sees strength a bit differently than more traditional Sith. They are concerned about species purity, he sees this is a weakness of the empire. He sees aliens as a source of strength, if he can cultivate their loyalty. After Illum, he disappears (thought dead), then reappears years later. In the last trailer, he is seeking that machine so he can find Force users rejected by the Sith and the Jedi, to build his empire.
It is a huge disappointment that we, the players, can't choose to join Malgus. The guy follows a truer and more fair Code than either the Sith or the Jedi.
@@androxtempest3913 Yes he betrays the Empire on Ilum over the crystals to make his invisible armada fleet along with the captured star forge he tasked players with conquering earlier in the game. in fact its on Ilum where you can find logs saying Malgus was on the council but if you're playing a inquisitor you can call him out on it and infact it was the other 3 darths who head the militaries sphere's that sent him to clean up the military messes. Malgus had visions of destroying the Republic and between the infighting and the empire using his greatest achievement the sacking of the jedi temple as leverage to secure peace he became disillusioned with the empire and its politics and distanced himself from them.
@@RobertJones-vb2qithat's not entirely right! He was part of the Council but stepped down on his own if I remember correctly! I think it's never mentioned in the game but the Books should cover it
The lightsaber fights in these cinematic trailers are the best lightsaber fights in any media outside the prequel trilogy.
I love how the duel in the first trailer ends up being a mirror of Qui-gon and Obi-wan's duel with Darth Maul. A Zabrak Jedi faces down against an experienced Sith master and his Apprentice, kills the master by running him through with a double-bladed lightsaber, only to be partially disarmed (reduced to a single blade) by the Apprentice before being killed by bisection. There's even a meaningful heart-to-heart (by Sith standards) between the wounded Master and his victorious apprentice before the Master dies (though obviously under different circumstances from how Qui-gon went), leaving his Apprentice to be elevated in his stead.
The choice to use Duel of the Fates and the way the duel played out were both very intentional nods to the original Duel of the Fates in Episode 1.
Mind blown.
There's so many small bits of lore spread out amongst all the trailers, especially the first three, but I'll leave you with this one bit if no one has said it already. Satele Shan is actually the great granddaughter of Bastilla Shan and Darth Revan from the Knights of the Old Republic games. By the third trailer (even though she wasn't in it) she held the rank of Jedi Grandmaster, the same rank Yoda held during the prequels
i loved how the 'Return' cinematic really shows of the difflerent classes you can play.
Return's 2v2 duel is still the best lightsaber fight in all of Star Wars. The fight itself tells a story, is not unecessarily dragged out (unlike the Mustafar duel) and shows off just how badass both Malgus and Battlemaster Kao Cen Darach were relative to the other two duelists.
EDIT: And 'Sacrifice' is one of the greatest storytelling trailers ever.
Facts!
After the events of the first three scenes, the Jedi managed to assassinate the Emperor, and Malgus made a play for the throne, but lost to the Dark Council.
It also turned out the Emperor wasn't exactly as dead as we might've liked. In fact, once his plan was revealed, it was so monstrous and omnicidal that the Sith Empire turned on him too.
Valkorion, the man in the following two cutscenes is the leader of the Zakuulian Empire, who took advantage of the Republic and Empire bleeding each other white to make a play for galactic dominance. They managed it, too, for about 6 years.
Do you guys want a summary?
Tenebrae is straight up the best villain Star Wars ever had. I wish they'd kept on Doug Bradley to voice him as Darth Vitiate.
These are still actually sort of canon. There was a Revan Legion in The Last Order.
this game.. is .. surprisingly... the most played star wars game to this day...
not sure why people are so surprised. the gameplay and graphical quality may be dated but it has some of the best writing of any mmo. i get that it's not for everyone but i think it gets more hat than it deserves.
actually, it gets far more hate than it does hat! it's late, i'm tired, that's all i've got!😂
@@davidperkins6752 The only MMO that gets you as invested in the story is FF14, but they're wildly different in tone and presentation
It's the only MMO that feels like a story.
Best MMO ever.
I wasn't even much of a SW fan before starting it, and I still prefered it to all the others.
And then I became a SW fan *because* of this game.
@@happyslapsgiving5421 welcome to the fandom! and dont let the gatekeepers make you feel bad..
High Republic doesn't replace the Old Republic. The Old Republic is a lot further back in the timeline. But yes new canon borrows a lot from TOR.
The fight in the rain in the second Eternal Empire series is one of my favorite cinematic fight choreography. And the embracing the the imperfections of the Jedi in the last one was fascinating. Malgus definitely became an interesting...'villain'. Not implying he's a good guy, but he's a lot more complicated as the series goes on.
There are tons of different costume parts in the game, including various cybernetics. When I still played I had an alt that was mostly cybernetic except for torso and head. Had someone said to me once, your character must suck if they are always losing limbs in fights. My response was, he didn't lose them in fights, he chose to be that way.
Hope he's not a force wielder. Less flesh gives you less connection to the Force. Or so I've read.
@@saitouhajime3 BH.
@@saitouhajime3 that is true but that has no importance in old republic as thats not an issue during this time. i have an alt that chose to go full cyborg and is a force user ergo a sith inquisitor/lighting sorcerer.
I've always thought that the Republic troopers looked like clone troopers, was because the Kaminoans were given the designs of these ancient Republic Troopers by Dooku. Similarly, the Clone Wars era ships used Sith designs because Sidious and or Dooku provided them for whatever corporation built them.
Also the Republic would want to hearken back to a heroic past for propaganda. And Palpatine turning the symbol of the Republic into the hated stormtroopers so that entire aesthetic becomes tainted for good. The New Republic never adopted armor like that because of that.
The best part about these trailers is that they still hold up 13 years later (referring to the first three, here). I'm just disappointed that they never managed to make a Star Wars game look like this--talking about the studio. I would watch these stories animated! Why hasn't Disney jumped at these stories? The views on the official channel alone show that there is interest here. A lot of interest!
thats a lot of compute power just to render a single frame of this kind. yeah, its kinda achievable on modern graphics cards, but back then...hell no. and you cant really retrofit such graphics into ancient RPG engine.
these trailers are so badass.
It's too bad the live action movies and TV shows don't have dynamic action scenes like this.
The animated shows and games are so good with the action scenes and deal with more mature themes.
I know the movies want to cater to all ages, but I think an action-packed, mostly serious movie would be extremely appealing.
There are 4 classes for The Republic(Trooper, Smuggler, Jedi Knight and Jedi Consular) and same 4 classes mirrored (Bounty Hunter, Imperial Agent, Sith Warrior and Sith Inquisitor) on the Empire side, each have a unique class story so 8 unique class stories in total, so there is great replayablity in this game, this is where the $300 million was spent making this game, all are voice acted and you can access them free to play. You can basically play this game as a single player game or co-op or as an MMO.
Most of the characters you see in the first 3 Trailers are NPCs and companions for the various classes. The other trailers are for the subsequent expansions for this game.
Some of the stories in the Trailers are continued into the game itself and you find out more about the characters.
Star Wars Galaxies was one of a kind. I bought it at launch and walked away from it twice only to come back and find myself enjoying it despite the changes. RIP Tempest server.
rip tempest!
Love that you guys are seeing these! These trailers are amazing. The second trailer sold me so hard on being a Trooper in the game. Pushing through force lightning to try and straight up knife a Sith Lord. Love it.
"Don't bring a knife to a force fight" lol, bring Jedi Grand Master (to be)...and a thermal detonator. :D
The first three were done by Blur Studios. They are owned by the director of the first Deadpool movie, Tim Miller. He probably was the one that directed the cinematic's.
Have to leave a like and comment for Major Dad! Always enough his commentary and insight!
For context, the first three video happens before the start of the game, then the 4th is after the expansion Knights of the Fallen Empire. That old man is the real end vilain, the Immortal Emperor Valkorion, sitting on the Eternal Throne of the Empire of Zakuul. The other SIth empire was a deception to weaken the Galaxy, so he can crush it with his Eternal Fleet...Sound familiar ? And it came way before Rise of Skywalker !! The Old Republic timeline must become canon, it's way too interesting !!
I've avoided all of the Bad Batch reactions because I don't want to be spoiled (watching season 3 is something I want to EVENTUALLY get around to doing), but since this video is safe, I gotta say that I love that you and your father do these reactions. Being able to bond with a parent over a shared love for something is really special and awesome!
I also don't blame you for avoiding playing TOR. As a former player, I can tell you that it is VERY easy to get lost in the game. It has a scary amount of story content and customization options.
I have never clicked on something so fast, this was absolutely amazing! Loved your reactions, they were so fun especially because these trailers were so important to me growing up as a Star Wars fan.
The faction you didn't know is called The Eternal Empire, headed by Emperor Valkorion who is actually a renegade Sith Lord by the name of Dark Vitiate, who seeks immortality above all. And yeah, he was the father of all the kids he turned into his weapons. The storyline was actually really fun.
the 4th and the 5th is about the TRUE EMPIRE
Eternal Empire.
I need to get back into this game. I'm still not yet all caught up, with any of my characters, to the current updates.
There are 8 different classes with their own storylines, companions, and playstyles. Everything after the main class missions up to The Eternal Empire stuff is the same per faction, then the Knights of the Fallen Empire and Knights of the Eternal Throne expansions are the same to all. The following expansions go back to faction based storylines.
Darth malgus é muito badass ,ele e satele shan tiveram uma das melhores rivalidade da franquia 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I love this game so much! Oddly enough playing a lightside sith warrior is very fun.
Possibly the 2nd best story overall. I mean, how do you beat the IA...
Oh you guys should react to a video on the life of Emperor Vitiate he’s the strongest with ever imo we see him here but his legends life story is great
also this timeline is 300 ish years AFTER KOTOR
I played SW:TOR at launch for maybe 9 months after it came out and it was really well made but there wasn't much to do once you finished the main storyline, however they have steadily released expansions and now it's quite a big game. I picked it up again after the expansion that the "Sacrifice" and "Betrayed" trailers show had come out and that was one of the best Star Wars stories I'd ever experienced. I had not seen the last trailer but I know who Malgus is so I have some ideas about what that is about.
There is an idea that has been expressed in various SW stories that suggests that the Jedi/Sith dichotomy fundamentally misunderstands the true nature of The Force, and the game spends quite a bit of time exploring that. I'm too burned out on SW and Jedi at this point to go back again, but if you enjoy that part of SW, the game is definitely worth checking out.
Love these trailers 😊
So glad you went thru these...they are truly epic!
A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one
Swtor is one of the greatest star wars games ever. Not just because of the game play but the storytelling. And the way it expanded the lore.
your dad multi boxing Star Wars Galaxies is the greatest
Get these Game writers to write for the movies. Make Star Wars great again.
the jedi battle master in deceived was such a badass
I played and loved the Knights of the Old Republic games. But when it came to the Old Republic MMO I played it but you could only get so far for free
One $15 monthly subscription will unlock all the expansions. Even after the subscription runs out you will still have access to those expansions.
@@vederianl9723 I know. But unfortunately on my low income I cannot afford a $15 monthly subscription
Thiss!! I want movies of this!! 🔥🔥
there's a reason why Satele Shan is the Grand Master of the order during this time, she was and is a bad ass but given her lineage that doesnt surprise me
Damn, now I want to play the game again 😁
A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one
Korriban is the historical name for Moraband
So it is like some people still call Istanbul for Constantinople, but it will always be Korriban for star wars fan
there's like a 40-50 year time gap in story between the first cinematic and the final one. the character you play as in the story happens right after the Fall of Coruscant cinematic
Yes, some old SWG Players. I am sure i would still play it today. Well i did for some time on a private server. I miss the good old time.
I’ve been playing Star Wars the old republic a lot and not too big with playing with other players, but I’m starting to be willing to try it. Maybe one day I’ll meet my future girlfriend on there lol. I love it as a Star Wars game, as long as you can ignore the “subscription” lures they have, it’s a good game. Good stories, funny characters, villains that you can hate with a passion, and annoying characters too. Right now I’m trying to complete some of the “legacy goals” by going to planets like Tattooine and killing 2,500 Sand People (Tusken Raiders, but they aren’t called that until the Raid of Tusken). I highly reccomend you at least give it a try cause it’s free on Steam, and with the hours I put, I got the subscription because I want to contribute to the game’s success.
Satele Shan and Darth Malgus
All of the hooded Sith grunts remind me of the Nazgûl
i made my first character who was a Sith Warrior wearing that armor. I think they're awesome. They're like unrelenting Sith shock troopers.
Satele Shan is descended from Bastila and Revan
21:10 hes one true immortal 1000yo Sith Emperor- Tenebrae/Vitiate/Valkorion and his family* (he make 3rd imperium- Zakuul)
That firey orange glow of the sith eyes. Tht passion and anger. The twin wasnty trained in the dark from birth so he didnt have the control. Which is what vitiate wanted. I wanted the darkside
Great idea. SWTOR is my high school mmo of choice I had great time with it, especially vanilla content is great.
please, both of you, there are many excellent Star Wars fan films on CZcams! If you can, react to them! I think everyone would love to see you react to them!!
Malgus is so badass.....
1:23 there are private servers you can pay to play, any version you want.
I would recommend KotOR and KotOR 2 before SWTOR, in order to appreciate it fully. It's a big commitment but so is reading a book or watching a tv series. That "father" is my second favourite character in all of Star Wars, behind Darth Sidious. Malgus and Vader might look cooler but there is just something about the big bad. That's enough spoilers, the only way to really experience the story is to play the games.
Wow another Sonny neat
I still think, making the old republic canon again could save the entire franchise and even be used to explain all the sequel nonsense away, for example, by connecting Palpatine to the original emperor Tenebrae, Vitiate, Valkorion... Simply put, the original emperor could be used to explain many things, including Rae... When you look at Vailyn, Rae suddenly isn't that overpowered anymore. And there are a lot of other points, that would save the entire thing.
The original game campaigns was sooooo good, i played through this game on basically every class. The expansions was not at all as good and i kind of quit after that. But damn the campaigns were some of thr best i have ever played.
I know it surely is more a "star wars" thing that you watch these game trailers and not because of the games, i think? But if you like epic good animated trailers, try World of Warcraft - Battle for Azeroth and the following cinematics. Really worth it. 🙂
Shoutout to SWG. Still the best MMO. Play the emulators.
Notice how Malgus' master survived being stabbed in the stomach with a lightsaber. Quite an annoying complaint these days when it's been shown to be possible years before (- ^ )
when in this trailer does he get stabbed in the stomach by a lightsaber?
Pre-Cu SWG was one of the best games I've ever played. Long live Bria!
Then Sony had to go and change it to try to make it more like WoW.
nope you watched it in order, malgas was way more messed up by the time he went into the jedi temple
Don't play the game with the intention of an MMO, think of it as KOTOR 3. The stories are phenomenal
the father the king valkorion is possessed by an ancient immortal sith who was called darth tenebrae and after darth vitiate, he is more powerful than palpatine, if the body die he can jump to another body. Revan was afraid of him, that tell you how strong he is
This just shows how interesting Star Wars could be if they would finally let go of their Skywalker obsession and flesh out the world some more.
I played on release and tried to get into it again a year ago but the gameplay feels too dated after all these years. Or I´m just over mmorpgs.
Still like the cinematiccs though, the fights look so good.
Just need someone to pitch the idea to either lucasfilm or Disney and it'll happen
@@daurydavis3983 they're aware of this era and how well received these trailers are. Lucasfilm games knowingly renewed the contract with the EA and the SWTOR team a few years ago. They're just choosing not to adapt this because they view it as not "safe" enough. I'll leave it at that. Don't ask where I got this info.
React to all warframe cinematics, some of them are even better
Awesome. There are additional story videos by Bioware that serves as a prologue to the game that I think you guys would love. There are 12 or of them, all voiced by the great Lance Henriksen. Please react to them. The first episode is called "The treaty of Coruscant". I've linked a playlist someone made from the official SWTOR channel, in proper order.

See this is 10 x more cinematic than I'm rey Skywalker in a mock voice
Leave her alone ffs
Disney couldn’t touch this.
The trailers are badass but I never cared to much about the game. I never liked that the armors and technology looked so similar or even more advanced than 3000-4000 years after in the movies.
Disney ruined it when they made legends non canon and know they want to make legends movies
Legends/ EU was never strictly speaking canon to begin with 🤷🏻♂️ At least if you ask George himself
the story in this game are so much beter then any crap disney has put out
Don't start that nonsense
@@daurydavis3983 not trying to argue but his comment isn’t wrong. The story telling in the old republic was much stronger
@@daurydavis3983 he's not wrong. I've actually played this games stories many times up to the latest content.
