00:18Grazie a tutti.
00:32Grazie a tutti.
01:00Do what must be done.
01:02We've got Vader hunting down the last of the Jedi.
01:05We've got questions like, what are Princess Leia and Bail Organa doing during this time period?
01:11We got the Death Star being built.
01:13So all of those things kind of came together in our minds as we started working on the story.
01:29I think we all kind of recognize at some point that Vader has to be kind of the central focus
01:33of the story
01:34because, you know, George made Vader the central focus of the entire saga.
01:41We kind of wanted to open the game with a bang and really wanted to get people's attention.
01:45And we allow you to start the beginning of the game as Vader.
01:51So the first thing that happens when the player picks up the control is Darth Vader arriving on Kashyyyk
01:58because he knows that there is a Jedi that the Wookiees are hiding.
02:06The Jedi, of course, puts up quite a fight and is really one of the first unleashed opponents that you
02:11face in the game.
02:16Vader senses something's a little bit off.
02:18He senses that there's somebody more powerful nearby.
02:20And so Vader just picks up his saber and he just goes to make the final blow.
02:25And then suddenly the saber gets pulled out of Darth Vader's hand, which we've never seen happen before.
02:30And Vader, of course, whips around.
02:32He looks down and he sees this little boy.
02:39When that happens and you realize it's just this kid, that's very powerful.
02:45Obviously, this child, the Force is really, really strong with them.
02:48It stops you. You're like, what is going to happen?
02:56In that moment, he realizes, Vader realizes that I can use this boy. He's really powerful.
03:02Come with me.
03:06So we transition to the future, many, many years.
03:10And this boy has now become Darth Vader's secret apprentice.
03:13Rise, my apprentice.
03:16And he's kind of doing these tests or trials for Vader.
03:19He's hunting Jedi and trying to prove himself to Vader.
03:22What is your will, my master?
03:24And so you playing Darth Vader's secret apprentice, that's where the story really takes off.
03:30The first mission that you undertake as Darth Vader's secret apprentice is to hunt down one of the last of
03:36the Jedi.
03:40He gets sent to a typewriter construction facility that's been taken over by a general named General Rom Coda.
03:48Vader tells him, the Emperor can't ever know about you.
03:52So you need to kill everyone aboard.
03:54Kill Coda's men.
03:55But if you run into a stormtrooper, you kill them as well.
03:59And that's because you're Darth Vader's secret apprentice and he really wants to drive that home.
04:15The crew aboard the Rogue Shadow is very reminiscent to the original Star Wars A New Hope,
04:20where you had Luke and Leia and Han and Chewie and R2 and Threepio,
04:24and they were all aboard this Millennium Falcon.
04:26Well, in a similar way, the Rogue Shadow is kind of the Dark Side Sith version of that.
04:31But, of course, that Dark Side energy isn't sustainable.
04:34That eventually this family sort of bonds together and there's a kinship that happens there.
04:39Am I going to see you again?
04:41Probably not, no.
04:43Obviously, this time period also includes the birth of the Rebellion.
04:46This ragtag group of freedom fighters that will ultimately oppose the Emperor and Darth Vader in Episode IV.
04:54This scene is such an important part of the Star Wars canon.
04:57And this is the start of the whole alliance, the whole changing of the Guard, the whole shifting and rebellion.
05:06We have a really well-rounded story and, you know, it's not very predictable at times.
05:12There's a lot of surprises.
05:13You may think you're going down one way and you'll find yourself in another.
05:16And I think the character development and the choices that you make in the Dark and Light Side will come
05:21across
05:21not only through the story but the actions that you may take.
05:28Everything we want to do is to kind of further the lore of Star Wars and to really make this
05:33a part of the saga.
05:36I think the story gives you new understanding about characters like Darth Vader and the Emperor
05:41and new insight into the time period between Episode III and IV as well.
05:45You can't wait to find out what's going to happen next.
06:04...
