Yeah, that’s probably why I’m still highly critical of the disney sequels on how the original characters were written ooc, it didn’t make any sense. Plus, the Disney ST was a copy + paste of the OT but written poorly.
It’s just weird that we didn’t see the trio reunited, which was a huge missed opportunity.

Side note: I have a friend who has delved more into the EU, and noted that some authors have written Luke as a bad mentor, that negates his core character from the original trilogy, which I found shocking. I’m not going to read those stories. Now if only I had that same luxury with TLJ, like if I had found out that Luke was horribly treated in that story, I wouldn’t have watched it.

I sense an interesting thought hiding in here about the need of a reader vs realism vs ideas what makes for a good story

Oh definitely, some like the realism, and some read fiction to escape from the realism, among other things. Also add in there ideas that would make profit, because that would be another great discussion lol
