Starkiller, I don’t think that’s the difference at this point. The difference is between Rey being conceived as somebody important all along and her being born as nothing but later ascending to greater heights. I personally believe the latter is incongruous with canon due to the nature of Force-sensitivity at birth and how powerful Rey needs to be in the end.
Wait, that’s the argument? Then in that case, I agree with Nev almost completely. The only two things I didn’t like from his idea were Rey not having Force sensitivity until TFA and Rey’s parents being good people, both of which I fixed in my draft.
But I don’t know if this debate’s even relevant anyways, because we’ve already moved on to a new idea. 😉 Geez, it’s like the TFA crawl all over again.
