The blog post regarding JMK says we’ll be playing through Revenge of the Sith to acquire him, so a dark side Anakin seems like the logical choice for the next GL. Sith Lords are the opposites of Jedi Masters so I think the naming makes sense.
If SLV is the next GL, guessing R8 General Skywalker and 6 star Malevolence will be required to kind of mirror the JMK requirements. My fear is KAM will be a requirement in the same way WAT’s a requirement for JMK. Anyone want to take a guess who else will be needed? I think Padme, Darth Sidious, and Ahsoka are also possibilities.

It’s all about time efficiency. Think of the time that forumers obsessed with the adoption a standardised acronym system save! Probably less time than it takes them to post their objections to acronyms of which they disapprove.
Sarcasm aside, the use of “GLOW” is an abomination and must be stopped at all costs.
Standardised acronym system is not your friend here: GLOW is an acronym; JMK is not.
um no. "an acronym is a word formed from the initial letters or groups of letters of words in a set phrase or series of words." Thus JMK is an acronym for Jedi Master Kenobi, GLOW is a different shorthand for the same person just doesnt use any of the letters from the original name and is THUS not an acronym.
other shorthands we have are JTR and GAS. [ Rey (jedi training), and General Skywalker, who switch orders of their letters and/or add in another letter) technically General skywalkers correct acronym would be GS (but we have many of those) so it would be switched to Gsky which is correct in terms of being an acronym still. However GAS becomes popular for the "funniness" (i believe) so it was taken in as the short hand.
but the big thing is that GL is just a title for the galactic legends normally used with their base names aka GL rey, GL kylo, GL luke. but never to my knowledge had the letters GL just been used with a single letter or 2 of the persons name, aka GLR, GLK, or GLL, until now with "GLOW"
GLOW is an acronym. JKL is an initialism.
An acronym is when the first letter of each word is used to create a new word that is pronounced as that word. GLOW, SCUBA, RADAR, etc. These are all acronyms. An initialism is when the first letter of each word is pronounced individually. JML, JKL, FBI, CNN, etc. These are all initialisms.
Both are abbreviations.
Technically or literally GLOW may be an acronym for something, but not in this game, or at least not for that character.
Galactic Legend is not part of his name.
Obi Wan is also not part of his name.
Yes someone can make up the phrase Galactic Legend Obi Wan to describe this character, but that is a personal choice to make a phrase that fits the definition of an acronym and is only loosely based on the title given but not the name given.
Also, while slightly off topic, it still sounds weird when I hear people pronounce SWGOH as a word, but I guess that would make it an acronym......

I think it'll be Sith tag instead of dark jedi
He'll have synergy with Empire faction just like JMK is a Jedi but has synergies with Galactic Republic

Not fallen Anakin, but Lord Vader, for one thing. And secondly, "dark jedi"? Why such a stupid name? There's a lot of different names out there and you try something so weak
How can you say that is canon and give us a "legends" link? Legends is the exact opposite of canon... Right? :#
Not opposites. However, if you had clicked on the link you would have seen the tab to swap over to canon. So here you go https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Dark_Jedi

Well Lord Vader would have to be in the suit already and then it wouldn't fit the prequel theme they have going on. As for Dark Jedi, that's something that's been used tons in the star wars universe including games like kotor that this game has the actual characters that were called Dark Jedi.

He was dubbed Lord Vader prior to the suit.
Would the inquisitors be considered “dark Jedi”?
at the very least, a Force User...
I preferred the term "Adept" that way it doesn't go Light Side or Dark side with terminology but stays neutral..

Technically the Inquisitors would be, but if they were to make it into the game, they would be Unaligned Force User (most likely). And for the Lord Vader tag debate, they probably wouldn't add the "Dark Jedi" tag, they would probably put Sith, seeing as Vader was a Sith.

If Inquisitors make it to the game, they will be Inquisitors. UFU makes no sense.
i think they would be both, UFU makes sense since they were not sith, and they were not jedi, thus they werent aligned just like the other UFU we have in game

They were pretty much aligned with the sith. They worked for an empire rin by the sith lord. They were trained by the sith apprentice. They were basically sith assassins under a different name.
The sith tag makes more sense than unaffiliated force user. But for game balance they may only get the inquisitor tag. Or get the sith tag, empire tag, and inquisitor tag but have most of the bonuses based on the inquisitor tag.
