If I remember correctly, though, the sequel to Knights of the Old Republic had a character who went out of her way to point out that both the light and dark sides of the force are self-serving, and that the Jedi and the Sith each honored their codes over people.
It was one of the more interesting takes on the series, I thought.
- DiabloD3 15y agoI haven't played KOTOR2, but I heard it sucked badly. That said, the character would be right. Both the Jedi and the Sith were... religions, including all the trappings that make religions cause mass murder and other horrible things. Anakin did bring balance to the force... it caused the destruction of the actual religion that was built up over the past 20 thousand years. Under Luke's rebuilding of the Jedi Order post-ROTJ, he did not promote emotionless compassion, but instead common sense, which is a super power in its own right. I mean, after all, he married Mara Jade and had kids, something pre-Anakin would have been a no-no.

- DiabloD3 15y agoJolee Bindo was the black Jedi from the first KOTOR, and his sub plot makes pretty much no sense. He rejected the religious ways of the Jedi as a Padawan, he became a smuggler, he got married even though he was a Jedi, he trained her in the force, and then Exar Kun converted her to the dark side, Jolee fought her, won, but couldn't kill her, and then she ran off to kill a bunch of Jedi before she was stopped. And Jolee's punishment for all of this? They wanted to promote him to being a Jedi Knight. Seriously?
- enmaku 15y agoAh, I stand corrected. I remembered the storyline but not which KotOR it was from. This is why I research my articles instead of writing from fuzzy half-memories ;)
