1) That's like saying you don't like the Christian faith because of the Crusades. A kind of misinterpretation, or common misconception. 2) If you say so. The middle ground is not necessarily apathy, however. 3) Bold statements. You would hate The New Jedi Order book series then. Especially Traitor. Sure, it's not like George Lucas wrote it or anything and the guys, especially the Traitor author might just have been bull****ting everyone. Would explain why he has been hired for the Episode III novelization.

Well, there's Descent: FreeSpace - The Great War. Or maybe it was FreeSpace: The Great War. Naturally it only resulted in FreeSpace 2 and an even bigger war curiously not named The Greater War.

What jaguar said. Apart from that, the... ah, Yuuzhan Vong Invasion. Or whatever the "official" name is, should it have one.

That's odd?? And I wouldn quite say "the only thing older" either. =/ Going by this timeline at least. *shrugs*

That's not a timeline. That's a timeline. ^_^'

Greatness is a transitory experience. It is never consistent. It depends in part upon the myth-making imagination of humankind. The person who experiences greatness must have a feeling for the myth he is in. He must project what is projected upon him. And he must have a strong sense of the sardonic. This is what uncouples him from belief in his own pretensions. The sardonic is all that permits him to move within himself. Without this quality, even occasional greatness will destroy a man. -from "Collected Sayings of Muad'Dib" by the Princess Irulan

Ahaha.

(!) I generally found Walter John Williams' Star Wars books to be so-so, but I thought at least that one scene was, if nothing else, pretty damn hilarious. I'm sure the fine people at GameFAQs will agree with you. I know I find your ideas most intriguing and amazingly original - heck, your every word flows from the screen with such sureness, natural charisma and elevated style, one literally experiences your weeks of numbing agony all over again and can neither miss the elegant tribute to your Sicilian father nor the heartfelt gratitude of the poor souls you heroically saved in unnummerable fistfights radiating from your posts. It is a triumph, this topic and full disclosure; and I pray that when the inevitable day comes where LucasArts lies crippled at your own software firm's victorious . . . feet, and the likes of Kevin J. Anderson, Terry Goodkind or Robert Jordan have at long last accepted your effortless superiority at producing written words - that then, I will be there, telling my children of the grand day I chanced across your brilliant revelations and how everything was finally put into perspective. The eye-watering tale of how I had been granted a glace at a greater world that day, a better way to live life, and how I had, even from the very first instant on, instinctively known that I myself would never be able to rise to such marvellous heights or achieve a comparable perfection and that I was instead doomed to spend my entire life trying. Oh yes, it shall be magnicifent indeed. Heh heh. I just realized I wrote a few pages on something that is completely unconnected to Star Wars. Ah, but I'm sure the fine people at GameFAQs will forgive me my sins.

I find myself thinking of her mainly as a Palpatine-Vergere-mix. Which is goood, intentional or not.

Which is why I got my KotORII copy from an online shop in the UK. Hmmm, well if the translation is actually better than the original, okay - but it very rarely is. More often, localized versions of a game are rather terrible. Personally, I try to avoid translations all I can unless the original's language is something I'm not familiar with.
