Red Dead Redemption 2 is already one of the most immersive open-world games ever made — dusty towns, muddy boots, and more “accidental” saloon incidents than any respectable outlaw would admit. But the modding scene has always had one extra layer to it: adult cosmetic mods. Some are huge overhauls. Others are tiny, targeted tweaks that change one character and one outfit — and that’s exactly what this one does. Mary-Beth Gaskill – Topless Sleepwear (NSFW) removes the chemise and loads the appropriate models/textures to make Mary-Beth topless in her sleepwear. If you’re building a more NSFW-friendly RDR2 setup, this is a clean little add-on — especially if you already have Lenny’s Mod Loader running. Mod Quick Facts What this mod does (and what it doesn’t) Let’s keep it simple and factual: ✅ What it does ❌ What it doesn’t do So: this is a purely visual mod, not a…
Was the Battle of Naboo Actually a Defeat for Palpatine?
At first glance, the Battle of Naboo looks like a clean Sith loss. The Trade Federation is humiliated.The Gungans and the Naboo unite.The Jedi Order get a very public win.And Darth Maul, the Sith’s attack dog, is cut down in front of witnesses. If you stop there, it’s tempting to argue that Palpatine—still playing the role of Senator from Naboo—lost control of events at the climax of The Phantom Menace. Especially if you’ve read Star Wars: Darth Plagueis and view Naboo as the long-term laboratory of Sith manipulation rather than a disposable pawn. But the deeper you dig, the more uncomfortable the question becomes: Did Palpatine actually lose… or did he simply win differently than planned? The Darth Plagueis Problem: Canon vs. Intent Before going further, it’s worth acknowledging the elephant in the room. Darth Plagueis is officially Legends, not canon. That matters—but only to a point. Many of its…
2025 Gave Us a Battlefront II Revival—and Fans Will Always Be Grateful
For a game that was officially left behind years ago, Star Wars Battlefront II had no business becoming one of 2025’s quiet comeback stories. And yet, that’s exactly what happened. No official relaunch. No surprise expansion. No marketing push from EA or Disney. Just a player base that never really left—and a year where everything finally lined up for a revival that felt earned, organic, and deeply emotional for longtime fans. In 2025, Battlefront II didn’t just come back. It was remembered. A Game That Refused to Stay Dead When Star Wars Battlefront II launched in 2017, its reputation was poisoned almost overnight. The controversy around progression and monetization overshadowed what was, even then, a technically impressive Star Wars shooter with unmatched audiovisual polish. What followed over the next few years was one of the most dramatic redemption arcs in modern gaming. DICE stripped out the worst systems, reworked progression,…
The Complete Chronological Watching Order of Every Canon Star Wars Movie and TV Show in 2026
If you’ve ever tried to watch Star Wars “in order,” you already know the problem: release dates lie, flashbacks complicate things, and Disney-era shows now weave between films like hyperspace lanes. That’s where a true chronological watching order comes in — one that follows the timeline inside the galaxy, not the year something hit theaters. Below is a complete, canon-only chronological order of every Star Wars movie and TV series, from the High Republic era to the fall of the First Order, with a short explanation of what each entry adds to the saga. This guide includes films, live-action series, and animated shows currently considered canon. The High Republic Era Young Jedi Adventures Set centuries before the Skywalker saga, this animated series introduces the High Republic at its most peaceful. It’s aimed at younger viewers but establishes the Jedi Order at its height — confident, numerous, and unchallenged. The Acolyte…
Wearable Buttplug Mod for Cyberpunk 2077 (Both V) – Install Guide, Requirements, and Fixes
Cyberpunk 2077 is already a game where you can replace half your body with chrome and still worry about your outfit matching the lighting in Kabuki. So it was only a matter of time before the modding scene started adding wearable adult accessories as proper equipment items — not just photomode props. Wearable Buttplug – Both V does exactly that: it adds a wearable NSFW accessory for both Female V and Male V, with optional support tools that make it easier to equip alongside other clothing items. This is one of those mods that’s simple in concept, but the install details matter if you don’t want weird wardrobe conflicts. Quick Facts Mod name: Wearable Buttplug – Both VGame: Cyberpunk 2077Mod type: NSFW accessory / wearable equipmentCharacters supported: Female V + Male VAdult content: Yes (visual)Recommended dependency: Equipment-EX (strongly recommended)Install difficulty: EasyBest used with: Outfit layering mods + Virtual Atelier (optional)…
Marvel Rivals “Thing Nude” Mod (NSFW) – What It Changes, How to Install, and Common Issues
There are plenty of Marvel Rivals mods that go for “alternate costume” energy. And then there are mods like Thing Nude, which is exactly what it says on the tin: a full NSFW model/skin swap that changes The Thing’s appearance in a very… unlicensed direction. It’s a simple mod concept — but because Marvel Rivals modding lives in that awkward space between “cosmetic fun” and “competitive online game,” the real value in a post like this is doing it right: install steps, compatibility, and what can break. Quick Facts Mod name: Thing NudeGame: Marvel RivalsMod type: Character skin / model swap (NSFW)NSFW: YesDownload: Nexus ModsMod pageInstall difficulty: Medium (depends on your mod loader setup)Safe for ranked / online play: Not recommended (file modification risk) What This Mod Does (And Doesn’t) Because the mod page doesn’t include a meaningful description, here’s the practical breakdown of what you should assume when installing…
How To Celebrate Your Gaming Milestones
Many gamers just like to play, but if you are somebody who’s far into gaming, then you also want ways to celebrate your milestones. Paying attention to what you’re achieving and the enjoyment that you’re getting from your hobby is a great way to define your life and mark the passage of time. But what should you be doing to celebrate your gaming milestones? Here are some ideas: Screenshot your victory pose The first place you might want to start is with screen-shotting your Victory pose. Creating these is a great idea for social media and allows you to really mark the achievement. You can also look for ways to turn your victory pose into a meme, if you are in the habit of winning. People love memes on platforms like Twitter and LinkedIn, so feel free to add shots whenever the time is right. Treat yourself to a custom-themed…
Bryce Dallas Howard Says Directing Ahsoka Season 2 Was “The Most Fun” of Her Adult Life
When Bryce Dallas Howard describes a job as “fun, fun and more fun,” Hollywood usually listens politely and moves on. When she adds that directing episodes of Ahsoka Season 2 was “the most fun that I have had in my adult life”—and calls the experience “magical”—that’s a different signal entirely. This isn’t hype. It’s a seasoned filmmaker talking about a creative high point inside one of the most closely watched productions on Disney+. And for Star Wars fans, it offers a revealing look at why Ahsoka continues to feel both confident and playful as it expands its corner of the galaxy. A Director Who Knows This Galaxy Howard isn’t a guest passing through Star Wars. By now, she’s one of the franchise’s most reliable behind-the-camera voices. Her work on The Mandalorian—including fan-favorite episodes like “Sanctuary” and “The Heiress”—earned her a reputation for balancing emotional character beats with clean, readable action….
Finn Wolfhard Calls The Last Jedi “Underrated” in Recent Interview
Every few years, Star Wars: The Last Jedi finds a new defender. This time, it’s coming from someone who knows a thing or two about pop-culture pressure. Finn Wolfhard, best known for Stranger Things, recently spoke about his love for Star Wars: The Last Jedi, calling it “so good and underrated.” His praise wasn’t vague or polite, either. He singled out the film’s willingness to take risks. “I loved that movie,” Wolfhard said. “I think that movie is so good and underrated. At least there was a thing like let’s take a swing and try some new ideas.” The comments come via Vanity Fair, and they land in a familiar fault line of modern Star Wars conversation. Why this still matters Nearly a decade after its release, The Last Jedi remains one of the most divisive films in the franchise. Some viewers see it as a bold, character-driven shake-up. Others…
First Look at the Logo for Ahsoka Season 2
Lucasfilm hasn’t issued a press release. There’s been no stage reveal, no official tweet, no dramatic countdown. And yet, Ahsoka Season 2 has quietly made itself visible. The first look at the Season 2 logo has surfaced—not on a poster or trailer, but stitched onto a jacket. Subtle, almost casual. And very on-brand for how this series tends to move. What we’re seeing The logo keeps things restrained. Clean lettering. A slightly rough, hand-drawn edge. The name Ahsoka remains the visual anchor, now paired with a simple “2” beneath it. No added tagline. No overt symbolism layered on top. It doesn’t scream escalation. It doesn’t try to reinvent the wheel. Instead, it signals continuity—this is the same story, moving forward rather than sideways. That choice matters. Context: where Ahsoka left off Season 1 of Ahsoka was doing a very specific kind of work. It wasn’t designed as a mass-market entry…
Last Call: Holiday Special Content Leaves LEGO Star Wars: Castaways Today
Today’s the last call.When the clock runs out, the Holiday Special content in LEGO Star Wars: Castaways goes with it—at least for now. If you’ve been meaning to jump in, this is the moment that actually matters. For a game built around lighthearted exploration and social play, timed content is rare. That’s why this cutoff hits differently. Miss it, and you’re not just skipping a cosmetic—you’re missing a small, very specific slice of Star Wars history reimagined in LEGO form. What’s happening—and why now The limited-time Holiday Special content celebrates Life Day, pulling from the galaxy’s most infamous TV oddity: Star Wars Holiday Special . It’s available today, and then it’s gone. No extended grace period. No vague “we’ll see.” The who and where are simple: players on Apple Arcade, inside Castaways. The why is equally straightforward. Seasonal content thrives on scarcity, and LEGO Star Wars usually leans into nostalgia…
Why Star Wars Nostalgia Is Stronger Than Marvel’s
By any reasonable metric, both Star Wars and Marvel sit at the center of modern pop culture. They dominate theaters, streaming platforms, toy aisles, and convention floors. Yet when conversations turn reflective—when people talk about what these franchises meant to them rather than what they earned—one pattern keeps resurfacing: Star Wars nostalgia runs deeper, and it lingers longer. This isn’t about box office totals or online fan debates. It’s about emotional memory. And for readers asking why Star Wars seems to occupy a more permanent place in people’s lives than the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the answer lies in how, when, and why those memories were formed. Generational Memory vs. Moment-Based Fandom One of the clearest differences between Star Wars and the Marvel Cinematic Universe is the way audiences first encountered them. Star Wars was rarely discovered alone. For decades, it was introduced—often deliberately—by parents to children. The Original Trilogy lived…
SWTOR In-Game Events for January 2026
January is shaping up to be a focused, old-school month in Star Wars: The Old Republic. No experimental gimmicks, no seasonal noise — just two proven events that reward time spent actually playing the game. If you’re logging in after the holidays and wondering when it’s worth committing a few evenings, this is your roadmap. Bounty Contract Week Returns The first event of the year brings back one of SWTOR’s most replayable PvE loops. Bounty Contract Week runs from January 6 to January 13, beginning and ending at 12:00 PM GMT, and is available to characters level 15 and up. The Bounty Brokers Association once again opens its doors, offering contracts that send players across the galaxy to track down criminal targets. Each day, you can accept: These missions often take place on different planets, encouraging travel and variety rather than repetitive grinding. Completing five standard contracts unlocks Kingpin missions,…
A Small Droid, a Quiet Tribute — and a Thoughtful Nod to Carl Weathers
Sometimes Star Wars honors its legacy in loud ways. Other times, it does so with restraint. This one falls firmly in the second category. Lucasfilm has confirmed that the copper assistant droid seen alongside Greef Karga in The Mandalorian carries the designation CW-24 — a deliberate tribute to the late Carl Weathers, who portrayed Karga across the series’ run. It’s subtle. Easy to miss. And exactly the kind of gesture that fits both the character and the man behind him. What Lucasfilm Has Done — and Why It Matters Now The naming choice comes as Star Wars continues to reflect on Weathers’ impact following his passing in early 2024. Beyond his on-screen presence, Weathers also directed several standout episodes of The Mandalorian, shaping the show’s visual language in its formative seasons. Rather than a title card or a public dedication, Lucasfilm opted for something woven directly into the universe. CW-24…
A Month of Star Wars Mornings Is Coming to Los Angeles — And the Timing Matters
There’s a quiet, deliberate kind of magic in watching Star Wars on the big screen before the year really gets going. No hype cycles. No spoilers. Just a darkened theater, a familiar score, and a story you already know—but somehow still want to revisit. That’s exactly what’s happening in Los Angeles this winter. Starting Saturday, January 3, 2026, the Ted Mann Theater on Wilshire Boulevard is hosting a steady run of Star Wars theatrical screenings—one film per week, all beginning at 11:00am. It’s a simple idea, executed well, and it lands at a very specific moment in the franchise’s timeline. What’s Screening, and When The program opens with The Empire Strikes Back on Saturday, January 3, followed by Return of the Jedi on January 10. From there, the schedule moves backward and forward across the saga: Every screening starts at 11:00am. No evening rush. No marathon fatigue. Just a consistent…
The Star Wars Games That Quietly Shaped Canon
Not all Star Wars canon was forged on the big screen. Some of the most important ideas, characters, and concepts in the galaxy far, far away didn’t arrive with a theatrical release or a Disney+ premiere. They slipped in quietly—through controller prompts, dialogue trees, and mission briefings—often unnoticed outside gaming circles. Over the years, Star Wars games have acted as a kind of narrative testing ground. A place where new ideas could be explored without the pressure of box office expectations. And in more than a few cases, those ideas didn’t stay in games—they reshaped canon itself. Games as a Narrative Sandbox For decades, Star Wars games occupied a strange middle ground. They weren’t movies.They weren’t novels.And for a long time, they weren’t treated as “important” canon either. That freedom turned out to be their greatest strength. Developers could explore moral ambiguity, alternative Force philosophies, and unexplored eras of the…
Why the Sith Didn’t Win Either
The Sith finally won. After a thousand years of secrecy, manipulation, and patience, they achieved total victory. The Jedi were wiped out. The Republic collapsed. The galaxy fell under the control of a single Sith Lord. And within a single generation, that victory destroyed them. The fall of the Jedi is often treated as the great tragedy of Star Wars. But what’s less discussed is the uncomfortable truth on the other side of that collapse: the Sith didn’t truly win either. They conquered everything—and built nothing that could last. Total Victory, No Future From the Sith perspective, the end of the Clone Wars was perfection. The Jedi were gone. Opposition was crushed. Power was absolute. There was no rival order, no balancing force, no institutional resistance left standing. But the Sith victory had a fatal flaw: it was designed to end with one person. There was no succession plan.No shared…
Why the Jedi Were Doomed Long Before Order 66
Order 66 didn’t destroy the Jedi.It revealed how fragile they had already become. When clone troopers turned on their generals, it felt sudden—shocking, brutal, absolute. But the truth is harder to accept and far more uncomfortable: the Jedi Order had been drifting toward collapse for years. The purge wasn’t the cause of their downfall. It was the final consequence of choices the Order had already made. To understand why the Jedi fell, you have to stop looking at the clones—and start looking at the institution. The Illusion of an Unbreakable Order At the height of the Republic, the Jedi appeared stronger than ever. Thousands of Knights and Masters served across the galaxy. Their Temple stood at the heart of Coruscant, both spiritually and politically. They advised the Senate, mediated conflicts, and carried the authority of a thousand generations. From the outside, the Order looked stable. Eternal, even. Inside, it was…
Star Wars: The Clone Wars on Xbox Was an Experiment That Still Feels Bold
When Star Wars: The Clone Wars debuted on the original Xbox in 2003, it wasn’t just another licensed tie-in. It was one of the first attempts to translate the sprawling, chaotic energy of large-scale Clone Wars battles into an interactive experience — and it did so in a way that still resonates with fans who grew up with the console. A Different Kind of Star Wars Combat Unlike lightsaber duels or ground-level infantry skirmishes, Star Wars: The Clone Wars on Xbox put you in the driver’s seat of the machines of war itself. This was a game about vehicles and battlefield roles: Rather than a traditional infantry-focused shooter, the game blended arcade action with objective-driven missions that required tactical thinking and situational awareness. In an era where Star Wars games often focused on cinematic set pieces or character quests, this title leaned into scale and strategy — letting players feel…
Tony Gilroy Pushes Back on Claims That Andor Is a Left-Leaning Show
Andor has often been described as one of the most politically grounded Star Wars series ever made. That framing has led some viewers to label it as explicitly left-leaning. According to Tony Gilroy, that interpretation misses the point. In a recent interview, Gilroy addressed the assumption head-on, making it clear that while his own political beliefs lean left, Andor was never designed to argue for a specific political program. Why This Conversation Keeps Coming Up Andor arrived at a moment when audiences are primed to read politics into everything. The show deals with authoritarian power, surveillance, bureaucracy, and rebellion—topics that naturally invite real-world comparisons. But Gilroy’s position is that Andor isn’t interested in policy debates. It’s interested in pressure. That distinction matters, especially as Star Wars storytelling has increasingly been filtered through modern political lenses rather than narrative intent. What Gilroy Actually Said Speaking on a podcast interview, Gilroy explained…
“Betrayal and Despair” Brings a Dark New Musical Chapter to Star Wars: The Old Republic
Some updates announce features. Others quietly deepen the soul of a game.“Betrayal and Despair” falls squarely into the second category—and that’s why it matters right now. Freshly released from the worlds of Star Wars: The Old Republic, the new track underscores a truth longtime players already know: SWTOR’s storytelling still lives and dies by its music. What Was Released—and Who Created It “Betrayal and Despair” is a newly composed piece for SWTOR by Gordy Haab, Marco Valerio Antonini, and Samuel Joseph Smythe. That lineup alone sets expectations. Haab’s work has long been associated with modern Star Wars music that respects John Williams’ legacy without mimicking it. Antonini and Smythe bring a more contemporary, cinematic game-music sensibility—leaning into mood, texture, and restraint. The result is a track that doesn’t rush to impress. It sits with the moment. Where This Fits in SWTOR’s Ongoing Story Star Wars: The Old Republic takes place…
You’ve Played Knights of the Old Republic for Years — and Still Missed This
Even longtime Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic players have moments where the game surprises them. The kind of realization that hits hard because you’ve sunk dozens—maybe hundreds—of hours into it and somehow never noticed something obvious in hindsight. One such moment comes late in the game, right before the final confrontation with Darth Malak. Most players remember this stretch clearly: a tense buildup, repeated enemy encounters, and a sense that the game is deliberately testing your endurance before the finale. But here’s the thing: one of those encounters isn’t mandatory at all. The Detail Many Players Overlook In the area leading up to the final elevator sequence, the game pushes you into a combat-heavy scenario that feels completely scripted. Droids keep spawning, the pacing slows, and most players assume this is simply part of the intended challenge. What often goes unnoticed is that the elevator itself can be…
How Old Is Darth Maul? His Real Age Explained in Star Wars Canon
Few Star Wars characters feel as timeless—and as confusing—as Darth Maul.He first appeared as a near-silent Sith assassin in The Phantom Menace, seemingly died, returned years later driven by obsession, and eventually met his final end far from the galactic spotlight. That long, fractured journey raises a surprisingly common question: how old is Darth Maul, really? In Star Wars canon, Darth Maul is roughly 52 years old at the time of his final appearance. The answer isn’t complicated—but it does require looking at where Maul appears across the Star Wars timeline. Darth Maul’s Birth Year (Canon) In official Star Wars canon, Darth Maul was born around 54 BBY (Before the Battle of Yavin). That places him firmly in the final decades of the Republic, growing up in the shadows long before the rise of the Empire. As a child, he was taken by Darth Sidious and trained in secret, molded…
Ahsoka Season 2 Will Dive Deeper Into the Nightsisters of Dathomir
One of Ahsoka’s most intriguing elements wasn’t a Jedi, a Sith, or even a familiar legacy character. It was the Nightsisters of Dathomir—and Season 2 is set to take them much further. According to Jane Edwina Seymour, who portrays Mother Lakesis, the next season will explore the Nightsisters “more fully and deeply” than before. That’s not a throwaway promise. It hints at a shift in focus that could reshape how this corner of Star Wars mythology is understood on screen. Why This Matters Now Season 1 of Ahsoka introduced the Nightsisters less as background lore and more as active players with their own agendas. They weren’t relics of The Clone Wars or Rebels. They were alive, strategic, and clearly operating on a long game. Season 2 appears ready to pay that setup off. For fans who’ve followed the Nightsisters across animation, novels, and games, this is the first time live-action…
