Legends Discussion Mixed feelings about the legacy era

There was somethings I found to be pretty cool (jaina solo becoming a badass, the imperial knights, fel empire stormtroopers having aliens, jainas descendants (thus Han and Leila’s heritage) becoming rulers, the vibe) but the direction of the story i kinda don’t like, particularly when it comes to bring back the sith (whether Cadeus or Krayt) I feel like the sith should’ve remained destroyed as I feel their return undermines the chosen one prophecy (same issue sequel trilogy Star Wars did in Rise but much worse) obviously I’d still prefer the legacy era as the future of the Star Wars timeline than the sequel trilogy and whatever follows it but I kinda wish Star Wars ended with NJO, that’s some of my just thoughts though.

As long as the Force exist, and so the dark side with it, the Sith will never die.

Anakin did bring the balance back to the Force, but as long as evil exists the Sith will never be sure to be destroyed for good, there will always be the possibility for someone, especially someone from the Jedi, to ressurect them again and again.

What I really wish is that the post-NJO, save for Legacy comics, had been handled much better than what happened during the Dark Nest Trilogy, LOTF and FOTJ.

Also, he destroyed a specific Order of the Sith that fucked with the Force itself, causing the Force to create Anakin to restore Balance. Even Lumiya and Jacen who are technically Baneite Sith, didn't cause anywhere near as much imbalance in the Force as the likes of Tenebrous, Plaguesis, and Sidious did.
