How much of a turnoff would prequel trilogy "cannon" be for you?

Things like,

-Being able to make Gungan characters.

-"XP" being replaced by "midichlorians".

-Pod-racers.

-Farting quadrupeds.

-Having Hayden Christensen as a guest star for voice-overs.

-Being able to switch to the Dark side only by rage-rerolling.

-Bounty hunters all coming from Space-New-Zealand.

-Smugglers always shooting second, it's only after bounty hunters miss them at point blank range that they ever shoot back.

-Who the fuck is Admiral Thrawn anyway? And what the hell is an Ysalamiri?

    Thrawn was an admiral from the book series, one of the best tacticsions of all time if I recall.

    Ysalamiri is a race I believe...

     

    It would not make sence to have most of the things you are listing when the time line of the game is like 5000 years before A New Hope.

    I was mostly thrown off by the 'Farting Quadrapeds' and Bounty Hunters from 'Space New Zealand'.

    Yep, I did miss it... sorry.

    I mistakenly take a lot of people seriously lol.

     

    When you said Hayden Christiansen voice over I cringed and had to say something?  I guess that was what got me.

    I don't think you will see much prequel stuff in this game, you may see a little. But if I were a betting man, I would put a lot of money on seeing some of the "Live Action Show" cannon being pushed into the game to promote the show, no matter how silly it is. Lucas won't miss an opportunity to market something of his. We all remember when the prequels came out and prequel crap started getting pumped in. I mean, they even added an instance to fight general grevious, come on.

    Tried: LotR, CoH, AoC, WAR, Jumpgate Classic
    Played: SWG, Guild Wars, WoW
    Playing: Eve Online, Counter-strike
    Loved: Star Wars Galaxies
    Waiting for: Earthrise, Guild Wars 2, anything sandbox.

    SEE OP! 

    I'm not alone in thinking you were serious.

    I made an edit to my original post, but I take his point seriously because that is how Lucas works. He will promote his "new thing" even if it doesn't make sense, much like the promotion of the prequels in SWG.

    Oh I agree, shameless money grab.

    Storyline?  What storyline... oh you mean that thing filled with plot holes and contradictions?

    Yeah.
