  1. How would you pronounce "Dvakvar Grahrk"?  (If you don't know who that is, that's the Devaronian character that Disciple replaced late in K2's production?)

      I would pronounce it with a slavic accent/reading (hard "R"-s): Dvakk-vahrr Grarrk

      Slavic languages are known to contain a lot of consonants after one another, and it makes it sound both exotic/mysterious/sophisticated and wild/hardcore.

      Probably best to wait until you feel passionate about working on them again. I find that giving things a long break, then rewatching old movies and shows I love, when I feel the need to, gets me going again (paying no mind to the passage of time). This is content that is mostly timeless because it speaks to the human condition, so it doesn't matter even if your work comes out decades later, and Disney hasn't exactly been helpful in keeping anyone motivated with their new content lately -- intent on doing their own thing, they've been doing zilch to build on any existing world and culture, and, as a result, the Star Wars fan and modding scene has suffered in the recent years tremendously...  So you're definitely not alone here.

      Personally, I've been digging into my other interests as well. When there's not enough for me to work with in Star Wars, I turn to other games and literature I love and enjoy. I've made quite a few new discoveries since. Variety is healthy and variety is key (as well as independence) to imagination and quality of work. After all, that's how George Lucas created Star Wars to begin with.

      I don't listen to corporations (couldn't care less), I don't follow mainstream trends, and I will always be both open to and critical about any form of art. Art should always be free from such such efforts of control and restraint, and it belongs in the hearts of those who truly appreciate it.

      Hey Bek,

      You know, I keep telling this to people, you can reach me anytime on my email address (noted in any of my mods), which hasn't changed. Just because I'm not on JKHub, or any other SW site, doesn't mean I'm unreachable...

      I'm fine. Life hasn't been easy for me. I've had a little more free time lately, so I've started getting back into modding. (Still working on The Clone Wars Missions, haven't given up.)

      (Still haven't forgiven Caelum, Eez, and the awful things that transpired at JKHub, either. I never did receive an apology for being discriminated against, abused, and wronged, which speaks volume about their character and the nature of their leadership and community...)

      How about you?

  4. Two days without PC gets me all cranky. Glad that I'm back with you now. Let's get something done tonight! :pc:

      *nods* An entire world diligently built by so many people, an enormous community, working together over decades. They kept the name, but threw the entire universe away. One of the largest, most well loved fictional universes ever created...

      Talk about being arrogant and wasteful.

      (I will never forgive them for that.)

      On that note, you can just the prequels and get straight to The Clone Wars after the original trilogy of films. Trust me, it's better that way. All of what you need to know about the prequel era is featured equally, or more sensibly, in The Clone Wars. ;)

      If you ask me, worthy Star Wars lore (that makes a coherent sense):

      The Original Star Wars Trilogy (Films)
      The Clone Wars (Stylised and 3D Animated TV Series, Up to Season 6)
      Knights of the Old Republic (Role-playing Video Game)

      Special Mention:
      Dark Disciple (Novel / Audio Book) -- Closure to Ventress' story arc in The Clone Wars.
      Yoda - Dark Rendezvous (Novel / Audio Book) -- A lot of fun and features the origins of Count Dooku.
