Old canon
>Galactic Civil War continues for decades after Battle of Endor
>Empire still poses a threat years after Rebels seize Coruscant and form the New Republic
>loads of interesting Imperials left over for Rebels to fight, like Moffs, Grand Admirals, Warlords etc
>Ysanne Isard
>Palpatine's crazy inner circle fucking around and causing chaos
>Warlords splitting off and doing their own thing or fighting among each other for control
>Empire still possesses tens of thousands of heavy warships, including dozens of Super Star Destroyers and experimental super weapons
>Based Thrawn
>Based Pelleon
>Empire's continued presence in the galaxy actually gives the New Republic something to do, allowing Luke, Han, Leia, Chewie, Wedge and Based Kyle Katarn to embark on many more adventures
>Even after the New Republic and the Empire declare ceasefire, several systems still follow the Imperial Remnant for the next century

New canon
>No interesting Imperial leaders left, somehow
>Within a couple of years since Endor, nearly every high ranking Imperial and majority of the entire Imperial fleet have been destroyed
>New Republic comes to power out of nowhere and proceeds to do nothing of interest for thirty years
>remaining handful of Imperials just kind of fuck off to uncharted territory to found the First Order and do nothing of interest for the better part of thirty years
>nothing of interest happens for thirty
>fuckin
>years
>all because the Empire (and Rebellion?) disappear overnight

T-thanks Mickey.

They should have made the First Order a feudal japanese faction.

They're like imperial fanatics that swear allegiance to the Shogun (Hux) and are profoundly religious (in the dark side) and follow a gruesome code of honor.

They should have made the "resistance" an ecoterrorist-like group like in 12 monkeys, separate and at odds with the Republic.

They should have made a faction based on order and authority based on royalgy (like the Fel empire) and a militaristic faction that is composed of down to earth imperial remmnants that are at odds with the First Order and in favor of the royalty, with Conan Antonio Motti at the head.

The new canon is simplified as hell, that was to be expected given how much simplified the films themselves have always been.

I was just amazed how much more simple Disney made it. To the point where it's confusing and nothing makes sense.

They should have also added a SSD, a timeless design and arguably the most beautiful thing SW has ever put out.

Maz Kanata should not have been an orange minion in a shitty cantina castle in a shitty parking lot forest planet.

Maz Kanata should have owned a SSD herself, as a piracy flagship with an iconic name, that would really show how she really was a legend.

Shit dude, this is actually a really good way to describe it.

It gets worse. Not only was that was the last one, and it was destroyed ONE YEAR after Endor. Like what the fuck- did the entire Imperial Fleet turn to paper maché after Sheev bit it or something? It's just so boring.

Watching all those ships crashing in the around that map is a really cool backdrop though, not gonna lie.

Fuck Disney. Also every last one of those 'EU was getting out of hand, Disney will do it better and keep the good parts!' faggots need to get the shit beat out of them.

the chapter in the x-wing novel where the Lusankya reveals its existence by blasting free of its secret docking bay under the bowels of Downtown Coruscant during the middle of a big battle, shooting and blowing apart countless layers of city infrastructure, skyscrapers and civilian air traffic to clear its path out of the atmosphere, was one of the only good moments in the EU

You will never have a class of Star Destroyer named after you.

We'll never get anything that interesting in the DisnEU. Not even remotely.

Nice double dubs, at least. Sheev would be pleased.

BUT then the people would complain it's too complicated like phantom peanus

Its because you wanted the superior EU character that already existed. You wanted Booster Terrik and his base of operations/smugglers den, the bright red star destroyer called the Errant Venture.
