bogleech You know, with all the language throughout Star Wars about giving in to the Dark Side, how the Dark Side makes you more powerful how the Dark Side makes you age strangely and destroys you, it sure doesn't sound like an "opposite side of the coin" so much as the deeper end of the pool," like it's actually the true form of the force and being a Jedi is about keeping it tamed so it doesn't eat you the way it actually wants sinbadism the force is entropy asgardreid Eldritch Jedi pls daxxglax This is one of the reasons i love the second Knights of the Old Republic game, wherein one of the major characters (who defines herself neither as Jedi nor Sith) actually views the Force this way saying hate the Force. I hate that it seems to have a will, that it would control us to achieve some countless lives are lost. measure of balance, when It's also the game that gave us the two most entropic, eldritch characters in the franchise: Darth Nihilus, whose dark-side-borne ability to feed on the Force and consume life itself has twisted him into a half-living "wound in the Force, more presence than flesh and Darth Sion, whose entire body is a ruin, his flesh nothing but ragged scar tissue, every bone and muscle broken and torn, kept animated by will alone as he forces himself, second by agonizing second, to exist I wish there were more horrifying perspectives on the force like that jollysunflora respainey This is one of the reasons the term Light Side" never felt right to me even before it was used in any official media, The Force always struck me more like an ocean than a binary concept: the deeper you go, the darker and more crushing it gets-at a certain point becoming an effectually consistent darkness and while light filters down and fades for some distance, if there is a truly light 'side" it'd be the surface Which isn't to say "the Force is evil unless you flounder about near the top"-just that it's a natural force, and as such is something you need to respect and be adequately prepared for. (Take electricity, for example: super awesome and pretty dang useful, but OH HOLY SMOKES don't try and harness it unless you REALLY know what you're doing!) In this sense, being tempted by the Dark Side is less a case of "Hey I wonder what's on the other side of this coin it looks pretty cool haha oh whoops I'm Space Walter White now, and more one of "The deeper into this thing you go, the harder you'll need to fight to resist the ever-increasing pressure, to remain whole, even to just see whatever the heck you're actually doing (which is why Jedi training is so important: those padawans gotta build themselves a mental Deepsea Challengerl) jasjuliet THIS META BLESSED ME cockslutkylo i am alive. kotor is a f------ blessing and im honestly so p----- they de-canonized it because that s--- was a wealth of incredibly deep and fascinating world building they essentially tossed out the window Kotor offered an entirely different perspective on the force; there is so much more to it than the antiquated good vs. evil concept we see in the films sinningsquire I always imagined "the narrow path of the Jedi like a surfer riding a wave and desperately balancing to stay above the water as long as they can, whereas the Dark Side would be more like becoming the wave, rolling with it and all its power but ultimately, like every wave breaking
