I don’t miss it one bit as a social platform. I just wish that search engines wouldn’t prioritise it as much when I try to find a “how to do….” guide. It’s insane how many Reddit threads (half deleted and otherwise) dominate the results. Just show me a nice webpage please.

Without Adblock detection. And no bloody “how to” videos either. I just want to read it through, thank you.

This one appears to be trending on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dG8SSTGUZBU

Sooo

These two episodes are set before the end of Rebels?

Anyone want to take a guess as to the identity of the third villain lightsabre fighter? Whilst watching in our house, we dismissed "corrupted Ezra" for being too predictable. Then a Night-Sister-resurrected-evil-Kanan was suggested...

I'm not completely opposed to that suggestion. There seemed to be something specific and recognisable about the fighter's stance...

As someone who has watched all of Clone Wars, Rebels and read the Thrawn books, I fully get where you’re coming from. Though I think there must be a 10 minute YouTube video of “what to know before watching Ahsoka” somewhere. Rebels is enjoyable (and gets suitably dark in its later seasons) but doesn’t tell an overtly complex story, so a quick primer video would be enough if you don’t want to experience it all.

All the dead space between lines stood out to me too. Ahsoka is obviously older here, but where’s her playfulness and spark?

Amended the title to also include Ep 2, since they aired at the same time. Good call. 😃

Is anyone perhaps able to summarise these alleged "best" settings? I hate YouTube clickbait.

As far as I can tell, it’s all there. Team Hide is definitely there. Loving the controller support, Larian knocked it OUT of the park. Changes the game into a 3rd person behind-the-player RPG yet somehow mapping all the complexities of KBM isometric RPG play onto the game pad? Heaven! Can strongly recommend this way to play.

Thanks for the tip - that works for me too!

8bitdo owner here - I’m having exactly the same issues. I’m playing on Linux, so I thought that might’ve been the issue but probably not then. As long as the controller is connected before starting the game, and I keep it awake during the game, all is good. Awkward, but I suppose we’ll have to manage for now.

I’ve been on Manjaro for about 1.5 years now too. I switched over to the Unstable branch a while back, which fixed this issue for me. This branch seems to be getting all packages at the same speed as regular Arch. Plus, I still get the Manjaro-specific kernels, access to their repos, integrated pamac, etc. For now, I’m sticking with Manjaro this way.

I love his stuff - thanks for sharing this one! I’ve been trying to put a build mode together for a looooong time and this helped quite a bit.

Here’s hoping he’ll have his version of Pet Sematary! :-)

Ah, thanks! I had indeed noticed the new transporter chief this season, wasn't sure if Kyle was going to make a surprise come back or not.

Really enjoyed this one (again)!

Felt like it probably worked a bit less like a time travel mystery, but worked very well as a La'an character piece. She got to experience what it was like to live without the burden of her heritage, but realised that for the greater good, the bad things had to happen.

The plot contrivances were a bit on the nose, the convenience with which they located people and facilities in particular, but again, it didn't bother me one bit. The emotional scene of La'an in her quarters, at the end, after her call with Kirk... great stuff!

I expected a Guinan-esque moment where she would hand the watch back to Pelia and they would just smirk and nod. I felt like Pelia was given her "the look" when she returned to the bridge at the end, so that may have been it. But then the "cliffhanger ending" where the camera focused on the watch? Who knows, Boimler may need to come back and fix this mess!

But also... no matter which timeline we're in: Where did Chief Kyle go??? Was he too mean?
