The Force Center curse continues. As I'm guessing you guys already saw, a story trailer for Star Wars Outlaws dropped just after this episode dropped.
I'm honestly a little torn on how I feel about "Tales of the Empire". I really, really, REALLY want more stories of Jedi, especially in animation, so I was looking forward to that potential. I'm also concerned, though. There's the potential of validating the "I just want Dark Side and Empire stories" crowd, who just want dark, edgy storytelling where villains just get away with their evil deeds with no consequences. I firmly believe that that has no place in Star Wars and those people just fundamentally miss the point of Star Wars. I do trust the team behind this, so I'm certain it won't be the case, but still, the concern remains.
And already there is another Star Wars trailer out. So much great stuff 😄 (OUTLAWS 💥)
Thanks, Joseph! Thanks, Ken! 💻 I hope they'll continue with both TALES OF THE JEDI as well as TALES OF THE EMPIRE. They're both rife with possibilities.
