Grievous could still do all those things, we just never saw him face those Jedi Masters in the Clone Wars. In their first encounter, he got the jump and them and pulled out all of his stunts he could. The Jedi weren't prepared. He was a constant challenge for Obi-Wan, one of the most powerful Jedi aside from Mace and Yoda. Kit Fisto had to retreat from his battle with Grievous, and the only real times Grevious was defeated was through sheer arrogance and luck, which fits his character. Hell, he killed Mother Talzin.
They didn't? Karen Travis stopped writing because she got butthurt over what a small section of Mandalore looked like. They even acknowledge the existence of Delta Squad in TCW. The Republic Commando game is canon to an extent.
Which Kit Fisto episode? There's a couple spread throughout the series. As well, they never tried to replicate the '03 series, so I don't know where you're getting that idea from.
The Clone Wars takes place after Anakin gets his scar on his right eye. The event above was way before that. If you want to see that, it's perfectly available to watch in the '03 series.
Durge died in the '03 series. He was alive in the comics, which were said to be non canon by Lucas before The Clone Wars came out.
How is portraying a group of old fashion Mandalorians as terrorists who attack innocent citizens make them look "good". Just because you yourself might be rooting for them doesn't make them the story's protagonist.
The fans have been wanting that since TPM. It added a giant story element and character for Obi-wan as well. You've complained in other posts they don't service the fans, then when they do you complain? It sounds like you're butthurt over them not bending over backwards to service what you want. Guess what? You're not a special snowflake.

If that were the case I'd consider the Metroid Prime series canon.Of course it is not, but Disney cannot erase thirty years of established canon.They didn't, it's still there and put into a "Legends" category. They can use anything from it any time they want.TCW, Rebels, and future movies go into that "Legends" category, because it is an alternate timeline, because it would contradict the EU stuff. Just like how the new Star Trek movies are on a separate timeline.

QuoteDurge died in the '03 series. He was alive in the comics, which were said to be non canon by Lucas before The Clone Wars came out.He didn't die though, it was more than evident that he could've lived, and was shown later on, like you said. Saying "he died in the '03 series" is really moot, when Darth Maul died in Episode I, but through far more absurd explanations he was able to come back. They didn't bring him back because they would've been afraid about scaring kids, clearly.
QuoteHow is portraying a group of old fashion Mandalorians as terrorists who attack innocent citizens make them look "good". Just because you yourself might be rooting for them doesn't make them the story's protagonist.Mandalorians are a warrior-culture, and when some people are claiming to be Mandalorians, but are pacifists, and the only Mandalorians that are acting the part are a group of terrorists that want to conquer the galaxy, there's a fucking problem. Especially since Mandalorians aren't a race or specific species, being Mandalorian is an idea, you can't accurately claim to be a follower of that idea and not act the part.

You're not a special snowflake.What fans, kids? I admit, when I was younger bringing back dead characters to have them fight new and create changes to the story and for other characters seemed like a fantastic and fun idea. However, I would expect more from the official writers than something from the mind of a young boy playing with his action figures. In story, death is supposed to mean something, you just don't bring dead characters back to life because they were cool. Yes, they might've been a great character, but bringing the dead back relentlessly shows disrespect for the character and original story that character played in. This is why in Halo people have been bitching that Cortana shouldn't come back, because the death meant something and voiding it makes that story pointless. Was a reaction elicited from Obi Wan? Yes, but it's nothing we haven't seen before.
They actually were planning on bringing Durge back for Season 7/8, and have him be involved on the attack on Courasant. The reason they couldn't bring him in earlier was due to the fact of limited animation, not that he would scare children. They beheaded people on screen, so that's not an issue.
Sure, they could have had him in the suit for a few seasons, but that isn't what a majority of fans would want. We only got to see moving hair at the start of season 4. There was no what they could have him be a reoccurring character and be able to animate his tentacles on their budget. They could have done it by season 7 though, but it got canceled.
Cultures change, and that was the main plot of the Mandalorian Arcs. The Mandalorians took over again at the end of season 5, but then were mostly wiped out by Sidious when they continued to help Darth Maul.
I agree, if anything they should have just stuck with Savage Oppress. But it's not like the story they told with Maul was bad. It was really good. There was no harm to it and it only enriched the story.

I have my obvious doubts about them being willing to bring him back, with all the childish stuff they pulled about them bringing in a regenerating, super quick, pyschopath that's the only Star Wars character to mercilessly and ruthlessly kill all Jedi he encounters while cursing them out with extreme prejudice and glee.
Nope, those things are not part of the EU.
and other games like TFU are non-canon.
Fan-fictions are obviously not canon.
Star Wars EU isn't canon. This is a fact.
Why is Noelle in so much denial?
