Talk:City of the Daleks (video game): Difference between revisions

Irrespective of the nice sentiments from Wenger and company that this is another episode of series 5, doesn't the presence of Skaro completely render this thing non-canonical? How can Skaro have possibly survived as a place in normal space, freely visitable by the Doctor and the Daleks, if the "entire war was time-locked" ([[DW]]: ''[[The End of Time (TV story)|The End of Time]]'')? So the Dalek homeworld was kept, ruined, outside the [[time-lock]], but Skaro wasn't? This story is a ''major'' challenge to one of the fundamental "truths" of the new series, and we as a wikia community, should have a ''serious'' debate as to whether to consider it canonical — quite apart from what the production team are telling us. '''Of course''' they're going to say it's a "real" episode, and that it "counts", cause ultimately they want us to buy them. (At some stage they ''will'' be on sale.) But that doesn't mean we have to fall for their schtick, does it? As Captain Jack said in ''[[The Parting of the Ways]]'', "One minute they're the greatest threat in the universe, the next minute they vanished out of time and space." I don't see how you go from that, to "Well, actually, their planet is still here in an easily-repairable state." No, this game is deeply threatening to the mythology, if you stop and think about it for even a few minutes. We should declare it non-canonical.
