I mean the bridge is positioned slightly to the starboard side. Kinda reminds of an aircraft carrier. Maybe that's what they were aiming for.

CrypticQuery Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 I made you your own thread and merged the others into it. Please keep your additional headcanons, fanfiction ideas, and theories in this thread to avoid clutter of the General StarFox board. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david201 Posted September 18, 2017 Author Share Posted September 18, 2017 We all know that Star Fox contains influences and references to the Star Wars Franchise, but I beg to question: Where is the Force and where are the Jedis? You cant have star wars without jedis Or is there anything in the games similar to the Force and are there characters similar to Jedi? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, a rabbit, a fox, a falcon and frog are flying starfighters against a floating ape heads space armanda. Some would find that difficult to swallow as is.

Then again, the closest we have to jedis or the force is Krystal, cerinia, the Krazoa and sauria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again, the closest we have to jedis or the force is Krystal, cerinia, the Krazoa and sauria I see where that would be cool, but I'm a firm believer that less is more. I mean swords and magic stories are everywhere. Its not that they're bad it's just so overused it doesn't become special anymore, just like the lightsabers in starwars. As to the force, I lean more toward that as a thing than a laser sword. Maybe as less a narrative and more of a plot device making it essential to the story in someway rather than, "aw yeah, another cool thing to cram into an already cool universe!"

Robert Monroe Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Because Star Fox is STAR FOX, not Star Wars, even with the references. And tbh, Star Fox has much more in common with various 1980s scifi anime despite that. Referencing something doesn't mean you wholesale literally copy every aspect of it.

Robert Monroe Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Krystal is the closest in the same way I'm close to being the next Lebron James because we're both human beings. She has vaguely defined maybe-psychic powers that sometimes Peppy also has and a magic staff that somehow resonates with an unrelated planet's actual magic. They are similar in tropes and that is all. The contexts are entirely different. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert Monroe Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Corneria seems to be a very conservative, shut in society, so I doubt it. They banished Andross because they feared his advances in science even. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david201 Posted September 23, 2017 Author Share Posted September 23, 2017 if People similar tot he jedi and a phenomenon similar tot he force existed in the Star Fox universe, What would Corneria think of them and How would they be treated in cornerian society? How would criminals such as star wolf, bounty hunters, pirates, and mercs such as Star fox view and treat them? Would corneria be able to find use for them in their military and in combat?

Rusakov Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 13 hours ago, david201 said: could star fox be able to take on an empire that spans a large portion of the galay by themselves? Short answer: No. Not without god-level plot armoring at least. Longer answer: a highlight reel from various analysis sources: A range of 10 - 100 million times the speed of light for Star Wars hyperdrives (a minimum of 1.2 million times). Ship gun yields range from kilotons to teratons (trillion tons) of TNT. For Slave One specifically the missile yield is about 190 megatons of TNT, the "seismic charge" yield is about 12 gigatons (billion tons). Yeah... Andross is cremated toast barring that super-tripple-mega-awesome-Gary-Stu level plot armor I mentioned earlier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rusakov Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 Oh jeez this guy is posting about Star Wars stuff in SF in one other thread too. Is this going to be like Numbers doing his Space Battleship Yamato idiocy again? I don't think I have the heart to go through another debacle as such. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His account got a restriction or something so he made that david201 account. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
