In my opinion, Star Wars is a big universe with room for a lot of stories. Having a gritty show like Andor does not diminish the heroic story of Luke. And while Star Wars is not 40k and they do and should have different tones, too much focus on telling the same kinds of stories can be harmful...

I know the differance between the old and new Sith. What I meant is that I consider both groups to be "real" Sith because they both adhere to Sith ideology, in the same way that you can covert to Judaism without being an ethnic or cultural Jew. I'm talking about Lord Kaan's Brotherhood of...

That really depends on what you mean by Sith. If you mean the Sith as a culture and society, than no, the New Sith had few ties to the old Sith. But the Sith were also a religion, not just a people. And most later Sith did attempt to adhere to the ideals and philosophy of the old Sith even if...

Prior to the genocide the Sith wasn't a den of madmen and monsters. Back before the Great Hyperspace war the Sith were a belligerent expansionist state, but not particularly notable beyond that. Hell, there was a pretty large faction of Sith that would have favored peace with the Republic and...

The writers for Star Wars in both Legends and Canon have never really been consistent on what the dark side is or how it works. On one hand you have things like the Sith holocaust, the Jedi sometimes being dogmatic arrogant jerks, and the golden age of the Sith being a pretty stable government...

I know this may sound naive but when I first heard about the idea behind the First Order and the Knights of Ren I was really excited. I thought that a new Empire that learned from the mistakes of the old was an interesting concept. I was also hoping to see them put in the underdog position...

Subtlety is hard. Whereas if you if you spout blatant wokeisms at every opportunity then you can use it as a shield against criticism. It's always easier to call your critics bigots than to explain why you screwed up.

I've always thought that the rebellion was to united and nice. A rebel movement in something as large as a galaxy should have a ton of competing groups in it, united only by their hatred of the Empire. Some honorable and some little more than terrorists. The name of the rebellion says it...

I thought the Infinite Army plot was a flashpoint. One that you get access to earlier in the story before Saresh becomes Chancellor.

Pretty much. That was Saresh. Though I don't believe she was Chancellor at the time of the Infinite Army. I think that was carried out by Chancellor Dorian Janarus.

The Sith Holocaust really did leave a permanent shadow over the Sith psyche. The Sith before the Great Hyperspace War were a fairly normal civilization by Earth standards, not counting the weird space magic. Granted, they were an expansionist state led by a hereditary aristocracy that...

The Jedi shadows would kill her regardless of how much her alchemy helped. The shadows annihilated every bit of Sith culture they could during the Sith Holocaust, including the stuff that had nothing to do with the force, simply because the Sith leaders used the dark side. Their response to this...

No it did mention stuff about occupying them and taking prisoners. These quotes are from the second and third paragraphs after the Republic occupation section in the article. While mass suicides are mentioned in the article, if the Republic had occupied them peacefully, as was claimed, there...

I was looking through the Star Wars wiki, and it looks like any mention of the Sith Holocaust has been scrubbed. The article about it has been renamed to the "Post–Great Hyperspace War counterinvasion" And I know they changed the name since previous links to the page about the Sith holocaust...

Is it worth going back and reading the Legends books? I know they did some weird stuff, but are there any recommendations for any good ones?
