BIG NEWS!!!
A lot of progress has been made on the EU video, and the Star Wars: The Old Republic MMO is all that remains to be finished. The video is likely 80-85% done, and release within a couple of months is looking to be a possibility.
Stay tuned :)

Announcement!
Due to the fact that these videos make me no money for copyright reasons, and I put a lot of time into the enormous amount of editing and research that goes into this channel, I am adding an optional ko-fi link for anyone who wants to support me a little! It's obviously not required but I'd greatly appreciate anyone who's willing to donate :)
Link is also in the channel description!

There have been some roadblocks in the production of the EU video, I have to make a new save file and move the current progress over already because the new one is having some strange issues, and I have to peruse through the complete star wars encyclopedia because I know I missed some in there.
For these reasons, the 2025 canon video will just be onscreen deaths, as I don't think I can manage two complete named death videos at the same time. There will be a complete canon video someday, just not this year I suppose.
As for the EU video, its up in the air and I hope to get it out by the end of 2025, but you never know sometimes, could be sooner, could be later.

Production on the EU video resumed about a month ago, how much more of it has been completed in that time, might you ask?
A lot.
1. I found a lot of deaths in eras I had already thought were finished, so the video is more thorough now.
2. I have fully completed the KOTOR deaths and those in between it and KOTOR II, meaning all that's left for the Old Repubic era is KOTOR II, SWTOR MMO, and everything in between.
3. More work has been done for the deaths in the Galaxies MMO, for which there are a lot. It is slowly being chipped away at, and its completion will unite two large blocks of progress, the 3600 BBY - 0 ABY block, and the 3 ABY - 24 ABY block. Speaking of the latter block...
4. All of the post-Endor content that is pre-NJO is 100% complete. The Jedi Knight/Mysteries/Outcast/Academy games, the Thrawn trilogy, Black Fleet Crisis, Jedi Academy trilogy, Hand of Thrawn duology, etc etc etc, are all done.
So how much work remains?
1. I need to keep browsing through as many EU sources, obscure and mainstream, as possible in order to ensure the video lives up to the title.
2. As previously stated, KOTOR II - SWTOR MMO needs to be fully researched and implemented into the video file itself.
3. The rest of the Galaxies MMO deaths need to be implemented.
4. NJO - Legacy II needs to completed, with research being necessary from about the beginning of the LOTF books to the Legacy II comics.
With all of this stated, I would say the video is about 70% complete, with 2-3 more months needed in the video production oven before it is ready to be released.
In terms of video length, all of my finished work rounds up to about 6 and a half hours. With there still being quite a few places I need to work on, i estimate the final video length will be somewhere around 8-9 hours. That is a low end estimate, it could be 10 or even 11 hours, depending on how long the SWTOR MMO section ends up being, but that remains to be seen.
I appreciate everyone's patience on this project, I am the only person working on it so that's why its taken so long, but I cannot wait to finally release it :)
(Sidenote, the 2025 canon version of this video may not come out right on January 1, 2026, due to focus being on this video, my apologies for that)

Another thing I want to clarify is that due to there being less onscreen Star Wars content being released in 2025, the 2025 video will be a full list of on and offscreen deaths in canon, making it a companion video to the legends video that is currently being worked on. This is mainly so that the 2025 video has some actual new content in it, aside from maybe 30 seconds of new footage from Skeleton Crew and Andor Season 2, and isn't just mostly the 2024 video again.

Also, to give an update on the Legends video, progress is accelerating! I have research done through the first year of the Yuuzang Vong war (25 ABY), up to Jedi Eclipse specifically, meaning a huge chunk of the research will soon be complete, and I can get to work on implementing into my video! There is still the KOTOR, KOTOR II and SWTOR stuff to be done, but we are getting a lot closer now! I would give it 60, maybe even 70% done now. Maybe just a couple more months and it might be ready!
I do wanna make sure I actually have *every* death though, so the final proofreading will take some time just to make sure I don't have to make any edits later

My apologies for this being a few days late, my priorities have been focused on the Legends deaths video, but the 2024 video is complete and will be releasing later today! I hope you all enjoy :)

To give an update on the Legends death count video, forward progress has slowed a little, and I have more so been focusing on researching sourcebooks, visual guides, game manuels, short stories, and whatever little in-between things you can imagine in order to ensure those aren't missed.
From doing this, my current work is a little more well-rounded and complete, and I have made some progress on A New Hope, as well as research being done for a little bit of the post-ROTJ stuff, up to Shadows of Mindor so nothing crazy yet.
I've decided to leave the rest of the original trilogy stuff for later and focus of the post-ROTJ stuff because of the insane amount of content in-between the three original films, and the rest of KOTOR all through SWTOR will be the last bits before final review and release.
I think it may be 45% done? Hard to say for certain, but early-mid 2025 still seems possible for a release, and its looking like its only gonna get longer! Its hard to say what the final length will be, but it likely won't be something most people could watch in one, or maybe even two or three sittings :3

Update on the Legends death count video, everything from just after SWTOR through right before A New Hope is fully completed!
To put it in timeline terms, c.3500 BBY to midway through 1 BBY is done, meaning all prequel era things are finished and I am starting to tackle the original trilogy stuff :)
It should be noted that the time period around the OT is very cluttered due to the amount of media that was released at the time, so progress is gonna slow down a bit on that era before I get into the post-ROTJ stuff, which I am quite excited to get to!
The main place that still need to be finished that isn't forward progress is the rest of KOTOR, all the way through SWTOR. Like I said before, this I will likely leave for the end of the project, due to how large SWTOR is, and regarding the fact its one of the very few things from the old EU still making new content, so I want to make sure I get the newest expansions included if there are any.
I'd say I'm around 40% done with a release window of early 2025, so good progress is being made, and I'm very excited for yall to watch it when it releases! It will be several hours long, I estimate it'll be 4 hours on the low end, 7-8 on the upper end, so there will be plenty to watch :3

Hello people, I am Useless Analysis, and welcome to my channel. I make video lists involving pop culture media I like, mainly Star Wars death counts, but there are non-Star Wars and non-death count videos as well if those are more to your liking.
