Unconvincing. You can help others (not to be confused with giving away all your possessions and retiring to a monastery), and still live quite comfortably.
Yes, but at the same time, he won't give others more than he gives himself (in all senses... uh... possessions, help, time...).

I'm not Locke, so you don't need to make comments like "I'm not a creep" ;) And it's not necessary to give others more than you give yourself - for example, if you're a Jedi, taking down a couple of mercenaries isn't a problem for you, right? (a bit cynical, but the idea is clear). Not to mention that you can draw strength from this (I got this idea from Kotor 2), because compassion makes the person you're helping stronger, and it makes you stronger, because you're realizing your potential, seeing the manifestation of your power (just as Sith see their power in destruction).

I never played Kotor 2.
Compassion is the Jedi's greatest weapon and the Sith's worst enemy.

Okay, okay. Let's close this topic for now. But what do you think about the fact that a Jedi can't love?

But how do you feel about the fact that a Jedi cannot love? A Jedi must renounce everything.
You have to hide in basements, like Jole Bindo, Anakin, the male protagonist of KotOR 1, and many others :)
But in general, this is necessary to avoid the Dark Side. Otherwise, you won't even notice how it consumes you (as an example - Anakin, and the holocrons of some couple from Korriban).

Here! And why be a hermit? And renounce all earthly pleasures? This is already self-sacrifice. A Jedi is a slave to their own principles and ideals.

But you are a slave to your own needs and the needs of the people close to you. If you want complete freedom, renounce them, because they bind you. And from there, it's only a few steps to becoming a Sith ;)

: Everyone has needs.
Some have:
Girls, booze, drugs...
Others have:
Entertainment (TV, computer, etc.).
Still others have something else...
And close people are also a need :D
Just saying...

Yeah, but you're not going to transfer your brain into a droid's body, are you? If we're all slaves, wouldn't it be better to wear our chains proudly and with dignity, like Jedi?

Well, yes. But you wouldn't rush to transplant your brain into a droid's body, would you? If we are all slaves, wouldn't it be better to wear our chains proudly and with dignity, like Jedi?
Or wouldn't it be better to wear our chains with pleasure and for our own benefit?

Simpler – definitely. Better? Perhaps not, because an easy path is almost always the wrong one.

What makes you think it’s an easy path? Everything has its pros and cons. Both light and darkness. And I won’t even mention the “Greys.”

A Jedi, just like a Sith, doesn't care about anything at all. Jedi and Sith don't care about what a "gray" character feels in their personal life, because a Jedi doesn't have a personal life; they only have the "code," the "order," and other nonsense.

Nonsense. Remember Bastila – she's a Jedi, and she feels everything. Also, remember the couple from Korriban. A Jedi simply overcomes their emotions – and that's a sign of willpower. So, it's not convincing.

I'm saying that it's absurd. The conversation keeps coming back to the same point. Living only for others is not right.
