The Order 66 Raid in Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes has officially gone live, and like any large-scale galaxy-shaking event, it’s already stirring the data pads and Discord channels. While many players are enjoying the chaos of clone betrayals and Jedi survival tactics, the devs have been watching closely—and they’ve taken notes. 🧠 Undersized Team Penalties – Not Quite Balanced? If you thought running a 3-man squad was a genius strategy to min-max your score… think again. The Order 66 Raid’s tooltip warned us: undersized teams get penalized. But as it stands, the penalty mechanics aren’t quite living up to balance expectations—especially in higher-tier modifiers. The devs are actively evaluating whether this penalty is tuned appropriately or needs a rework. TL;DR: bring a full squad until further notice. 🤔 Clone Trooper Bug: Clever Ruse Not So Clever The Disguised Clone Trooper’s “Clever Ruse” ability is meant to grant 20% Turn…

What If Darth Vader Used CBD? A Galaxy Where Anakin Chilled Instead of Choked
Let’s be honest—if anyone in the galaxy needed a chill pill (or, say, a vegan, non-GMO, raspberry-flavored CBD gummy), it was definitely Anakin Skywalker. The guy went from angsty Jedi heartthrob to full-blown war-crimes enthusiast faster than you can say “I hate sand.” But what if things had gone… differently? What if Darth Vader, instead of force-choking officers, was puffing away on a mango-flavored vape? Buckle up—this is the alternate Star Wars universe you never knew you needed. From Dark Side to Calm Side: Anakin’s Fork in the Road Picture this: right after Obi-Wan tells him to take a seat in the Jedi Council chambers, Anakin doesn’t pout or seethe. Instead, he shrugs, reaches for a calming CBD gummy infused with therapeutic terpenes, and says, “You know what? I’m just vibin’.” Boom. The Jedi Council doesn’t get betrayed. Younglings remain un-sliced. Padmé lives. Palpatine gets ghosted. This isn’t just ridiculous…
Star Wars Battlefront II Smashes Steam Player Record After 90% Off Sale
What happens when a legendary Star Wars shooter goes on sale for the price of a vending machine soda? It blows up the charts—literally. Star Wars Battlefront II just broke its all-time concurrent player record on Steam, with over 20,000 players jumping into the galaxy far, far away as of June 21, 2025. And the Force behind this resurgence? A whopping 90% discount on the game. A Comeback Story That’s Almost Canon-Worthy Let’s be honest—Battlefront II didn’t exactly launch as the chosen one back in 2017. Thanks to infamous loot box drama and a progression system that felt more like Sith alchemy than balanced gameplay, it became the poster child for what not to do in AAA monetization. But EA and DICE turned things around. Fast forward to today, and it’s now regarded as one of the most polished and content-rich Star Wars multiplayer experiences available. Now, with a $3.99…
