@matrix how the fuck are there actually 20 million sentient species in star wars? are they counting like, real life sentient species as well?
@matrix because there is no fucking way anyone made 20 million sentient species from scratch.
@beardalaxy I think it's a random number they came up with
@matrix @beardalaxy
On one hand, it's a fantasy. There's no reason for average amoeba to not be sentient.
Second: If you divide species enough, you can come up with whatever number you want.
But yeah, it's total bullshit.
Only on earth, there are 8.7 million species, so that would make the stat wars galaxy as diverse as my dating history.
PS, please, keep the Twileks around.
@LukeAlmighty @matrix and that's just the number of species total, and an estimate at that. and only 1.2 million have been actually identified. nothing to say if these are actually sentient species or not either.
@beardalaxy @matrix
In star wars, sentience is unbelievably common.
Even mountains are sentient. Masks can be sentient. Crystals are sentient.
