  1. I realize that. If you read the novelizations, they might say Sith. I have an unopened Darth Vader keychain whose package says Dark Lord of the Sith. But the original movies don't say Sith. (I don't recall the specifics of the radio dramas.) They just refer to the Dark Side of the Force. Just like Return of the Jedi doesn't speak the word Ewok, but everyone knows what they are through the end credits and merchandise.There's a 1997 Star Wars video game set years after Return of the Jedi in which the player fights seven Dark Jedi, but that's all they're ever called, never Sith. The Sith aren't mentioned until the player goes to Korriban, the Sith homeworld. You can be a Dark Jedi just by doing evil things with Force powers. It takes special disciplines and beliefs to follow Sith ways. Star Wars doesnt' mention "Star Destroyers", just Imperial Cruisers Leia points at the Executor when escaping Bespin and says "Star Destroyer..."
  2. Did I enjoy the Beta? Yes. The scale of the Hoth map was really impressive and it was fun when you unlocked the jetpack. Oh, how frustrating it must've been to be Luke or Vader and come at someone swinging only to have them drop a grenade and jetpack up a hill and (momentarily) out of reach. Is it a flawed game? Yes. The description of "Battlefield with Star Wars skins" is both right and wrong. Theres not much to it but the bigger sin is that it doesn't bring anything new or different to the table. I'm also weirdly put off that vehicles are "picked-up" by a floating icon - which seems very PS1 era logic - instead of just having a fighter or ship at a spawn point like the original Battlefront games. Will I be buying it? Yes. If for nothing else, I find I have less time for story-intensive gameplay and just want to blow off some steam with friends (welcome to months upon months of marathoning Left 4 Dead every night several years ago). And I enjoy seeing stuff I grew up as a kid finally done in the scale I always wanted. Is it a great game? Probably not, but I'll take it.
