Hey what was the "hold your fire, there's no lifeforms" guy thinking in Star Wars Episode 4 anyway?
Yuri Dealer13imagine how much paperwork it'd be for destroying an escape pod for no reason 😭😭😭😭
Qsy13it takes ten million double A batteries to fire one of these guns
Shirou Shirousuke (Not Real Name)6I'm sure wookiepedia has an entire writeup for that guy
Izra3empire sure having budgeting problems when they ration their blaster shots
intercrural juror3maybe robots were invented like that same morning and he just hadn't read the news yet
J.R. Mollick2As a kid I always thought they would send a team to go get it later, since stuff in Stars Wars was all old I figured it was rough to rebuild stuff lol
Ether1012Saving money and not wanting to get in trouble with the insane fascist state?
Cozmic Caztaway2Probably "There's no point", but what if he was actually thinking that he had friends everywhere?
LastCub 🔞2Probably more paperwork involved in firing than not lol
seeonlyevil.bsky.social2Either something about the laser budget or something about how firing unnecessarily would send another bolt going out into space on and on until it eventually hits something. Like in Mass Effect- "you will be ruining someone's day, somewhere and sometime".
