When Yoda told Luke that he will be afraid, he wasn't being dark and twisted. He was telling him a simple fact of life that comes with training in the Jedi Arts, he will be afraid. All Jedi Padawans will face fear as fear is the path to the dark side. Yoda himself also faced fear during his initial Jedi trial when he was a young Padawan and again during his sojourn during the Clone Wars, as shown in "Destiny".

SERENITY: "At death, in order for you to preserve your identity, you must know yourself, your true self, and then let go. On that island dwells all that remains unconquered, what, in your existence, some call evil, otherwise known as fear, all which must be finally overcome before the journey can be taken. Free yourself, you must."

YODA: "A Jedi Master I am. Know all that dwells within I do. Mastered my weaknesses and conquered my fears I have."

SERENITY: "Have you? You must face your evil on that island and defeat it."


YODA: "How shall I complete my training?"

CONFUSION: "You must face the ultimate test, the ultimate seduction, the gravest of journeys."

SADNESS: "You will travel to Moraband."

YODA: "Moraband."

ANGER: "Journey through the ancient home world of the Sith. Face all that you fear, all that haunts your soul!"

Yoda's change is the result of what happened by the end of ROTS, with the Jedi Purge and all that was lost. But he is also wise enough to know that Luke's journey is just starting and part of that is that he will face himself and he knows that it will be a humbling experience for him.

Sure, that is true, you're right and I do agree. The greatest trial is facing yourself. Plus, the purge was a unique experience to endure. Yoda wanted to make sure that Luke would be focused enough not to fall to the dark side after Yoda goes to die.

As far as the story goes, this is ok. I understand what is happening as a reader.

I am not totally mad or confused or anything... all of this is ok to some extent....

I understand the process of becoming a jedi and that it important to be focused..... you must endure trails.....

I love the episodes in the clone wars in season 6 with yoda and the ancient creatures.....

and also the other episodes with the other planet and the father and and the son and the daughter


but

my concern here might be either in the appearance of yoda's personality...... that it might be a little too dark.... like too much of a change...

or in the editing of the films in the OT and then also in the way they made the PT....

it might be in the makeup... in the lighting...

in the way that the yoda puppet moved in Jedi.....

and in Yoda's like drugged out eyes in Jedi.....

it just seem that Yoda became more serious and bipolar after the purge

and I wonder if Yoda was an alcoholic before the purge or not

and I wonder if the bipolar split between silly yoda and killer yoda in Empire and Jedi is acceptable or not

I am ok with it

but Yoda was already about 800 years old in the PT

and Yoda should have already developed that bipolar split before the PT

but I guess this is what happens to jedi after the purge

but Ben didn't become as biploar as Yoda

why didn't Ben become bipolar?

and how is Asoka doing after the purge?
