    My biggest gruff with Disney is them declaring the extended universe non canon just to cherry pick details from it while ignoring the most exciting lore and shit.

    Like the whole palpatine returning thing happened in the EU but was done in a much better way. Different materials like beskar were more fleshed out.

    Disney literally had thousands of stories to draw inspiration from and chose to just come up with bullshit over and over again.

      absolutely. never read any of the comics, but most of the really interesting stories seem to happen there. would love a well executed starkiller series. i actually did not know about him until i watched some matpat style videos about star wars.

        I kind of love Starkiller’s story, including the fact that his actions were so instrumental to forming the Rebel Alliance that they took his family crest as their sigil. That’s badass.

      I’m glad they separated their universe from the EU. It means I can read the EU stuff with the knowledge that it has zero connection to Disney’s crap.
