SWGEmu Publish 9 - "Secrets of the Force, Redux" loading screen competition

[nee2earth]

Just a quick reminder about which timeline SWG Pre-cu takes place in.

(hint: After Ep. 4 and before Ep. 5, so anything canon prior to Ep. 5 should be appropriate lore-wise...as long as it relates to what Vlada suggests in the OP of this thread )

Thanks for the hint! That one is a suprisingly valuable one for everyone.

Im not a fan of the Dathomir Village Story Line. I never was.
Moreover, we now know that nothing survived the Clone Wars on Dathomir.
/offtopic Same for Geonosis. I love making retrocontinuity, and so I enjoy seing Geonosian lab on SWG Yavin.

The reference to Rogue One/ Guardian of the Whills should not be too overwhelming, but somehow i feel it has to be in, I wish we find a way to make it properly. I love the fallen statue of the Jedi and the destruction of the Kybber crystal temple with the ship running away. Where? Why not to Dathomir. (That be my next attempt)

But when these events happens? My opinion is a long time ago but a week at the utmost before EP4 begins. When I look at rogue one concept arts, am I stretching the timeline too far away from Ep4? I now believe I may have by including a picture of Jyn Erso. (Second picture) Im overstretching Swgemu timeline by thinking that because the opening text of EP4 indirectly mention Scarrif, then I can include her. She is not in the game lol.



UPDATE:


Note that I don't stand with the text on the right hand side. I'm just wondering on how to edit the frame in order to write down... hmm: so Vayman's text!
I stand with the one represented on Vayman loading screen. However that's the picture I was thinking of when I was thinking of certain part of that text.

Concerning my picture, if any wonder whats written in Aurebesh:

->Open Spoiler<-

The Guardian of The Whills:
They now call for you
Can you find us?

I can make some little change to that though.
Cooperation and sharing ideas work very well with you guys ! The quicker we are done with this contest, the quicker we'll enjoy patch 9! :P

Alright,
I'm using PixelMator, I want to mention that I'm not extremely confortable with text edition on the screenshots. I'm fine with the rest.

My two best candidates.


A)


B)


Story:
Loading screen A) explains how the force came to fall off balance, why it allows you to sense it, and if you want to, why you can help to restore the balance.
i) the fall of the Jedi (the statue on the floor)
ii) the destruction of the Guardian of the Whills (sometimes called the Kyber Temple)
iii) the path to Dathomir leading to some hypothetical survivor of Jedha, hiding in Aurilia. (that could be a little like the Geonosian who did survive the destruction of their homeworld and can be find in SWG Yavin)
iv) holocron representation (both jedi and sith)
v) the old man (okay, I didn't like the guy, but let's say he has now become mysteriously mysterious enough to have been a friend of Saw Gerrera :P)

Loading screen B) is exploring what Nee2earth showed up earlier.
How the Jedi where destroyed and the Path force users can walk together to restore balance.
I believe the first concept art, at the bottom, could represent the ruin of the first Jedi Temple on Tython
There is another concept art showing a secret gathering within the Temple of Exar Kun. (following order 66, most Jedi falls to dark side)
The ruins of a swg Dantooinian Jedi Temple
and then a pathway to a new beginning. (showing both Vader and a Padawan: together)
The Old Man appears in transparency on right side of the loading screen.

Overall I still prefer the first one. But I'm still working on both. :P
What do you think?
