QuoteA Rebel view point would really suit the transition from the Galactic Civil War to First Order–Resistance war; which is almost what they were going for in SWBF2 (2017).
I remember in the reveal trailer when Iden said that she was waiting 30 years for revenge, while showing footage of the First Order. That implied that she never would have changed sides. Sure, one of the devs said in an interview that they never intended to tell the story about how the First Order came into existence, but clearly there was once some thought in place to cover Iden's perspective of the era transition as a bad guy instead.
QuoteHopefully we get something more like that one day, especially with the great canon contribution that is Battlefront Twilight Company (still one of the best new canon books).
Oh, I love that book! I'm not sure that it would make a good campaign, though, given how much characterization is given. There's a lot of subtle cues in the dialog which, unless an adaptation were to undergo major revisions, would require MGS4-length cutscenes. Still, there was a lot of cool set-pieces that would certainly be welcome in a game.
