women don't like sci-fi/fantasy
women don't like adventure
women don't like action
women love pointless drama and glorified coombait (but it's totally not degenerate)
in other words, women don't like star wars or comicbooks
Women like bad boys. Han not so much, but I saw quite a fanfare for Prequels Anakin among the female demographic. Let's just say........more than a few women would've killed to switch places with Padme and have Anakin choke them; and their response to it wouldn't be dying from a lack of will to live, but instead, the words "harder, daddy.........."
It's crazy to think that Star Wars has been so mismanaged due to trying to reach a "wider audience" despite Star Wars was the biggest mass appeal fantasy franchises in existence. Disney tried to heavily feminize Star Wars because all it seems to make this days is girl projects in spite of acquiring Star Wars, Pixar, and Marvel to shore up the boys content they lacked.
They could've just done a "best hits" of female Jedi from the SWEU and filled their quota of female badasses for decades to come. Instead, they destroyed the franchise lore, then destroyed themselves when their Sequels had all the planning of a schizophrenic driver.
Replayed Jedi Academy on Jedi Master because it's been a few years. Went with dualies and had the worst time with Alora's second fight. Stupid bitch just one-shots you sometimes and has so much goddamn health. The saber staff Jedi were also a pain in the ass because they could instant kill with butterfly. Had to potshot them with saber throws until they went down. Kyle felt so much easier this time around because he wasn't killing me with absolute bullshit despite having an unavoidable saber pull move and expert teenage beating skills.
The higher difficulties nerf you instead of just making the bad guys harder. You go down like a bitch from the moment you encounter significant opposition. It's basically the same as say, Halo 2, where a slight gust of wind or a single sniper shot is enough to kill you.
Does anyone actually spare Rosh? The Dark Side ending and version of the final level is so much better.
I almost always go for Light Side, but not because I like Rosh. It's mostly two reasons: because from my Jedi's POV, she doesn't want to fail Luke Skywalker, and from my own POV as a SW fan, it's because the Sith fan in me wants to be the one to kick Marka Ragnos' face in. The dude died a peaceful death since after he decapitated Simus, none of the Sith dared to challenge him. Even Naga Sadow and Ludo Kressh waited until Ragnos died before they started beefing over his throne. My Jaden was probably the first person in a long time to challenge him.
Kyle Katarn is a worthy opponent, but he pales in comparison to Ragnos. You got the easy boss fight. I can't count how many times I whooped Katarn's butt before I meant to end the fight. Whereas with Ragnos, you really have to be patient.
The difference between drawing and keeping male and female interest isn't that large really imo. Outside of the obvious, most women can't be interested and kept with actionactionaction, most men can't be interested and kept with romanceromanceromance.
The key is keeping things in balance. Women like some action, especially if the lead is charming or strong. Men like some romance, especially if it involves a cute girl. I mean, women liked Anakin from the Prequels even though the majority of his best hits are the action bits with the lightsaber and him acting with his face. Men still get wet with memories of Princess Leia and Han Solo's romance, and the former's time in a golden bikini.
