And I agree, I bought into that when I was a kid and teen, but now I'm much older and look at it from a design point/general view on how the Empire should win or how their tech should do some damage, there's very little points in the SW universe where bad guys win and when they do it's for a peroid of time that's usually less than what the good guys had despite having better/worse technology, if you look at the prequels the look of the tech back then looked lightyears ahead of the tech from the original trilogy and that sticks out like a sore thumb both from a film standpoint and time period.
I know Hollywood loves that idea but we're the games industry, we're supposed to not be like hollywood, we're supposed to be doing our own thing and games are certainly not meant to be all about being movies or trying to copy them down to how everything works.
Mankind, in its arrogance and self-delusion, must believe they are the mirrors to God in both their image and their power. If something shatters that mirror, then it must be totally destroyed.
