I think what I really like about SWTOR — compared to other stuff in Star Wars that I've seen — is that you get to see the Sith Empire in a way that allows for very complex characters to exist without needing to redeem them because you can play as an Imperial.

And yes, I know that down the line they sort of resort to little redemption arcs here and there, but for the most part, all four Imperial side stories are full of very complex evil characters and I think it's interesting that we get to see the Empire through these lenses.

It also allows you to play within that setting in different ways than standard Star Wars content usually is (good vs bad and the bad is usually a sad sob story about some padawan-turned-inquisitor or something in that line), making the stories much more compelling, in my opinion.

Overall, you also see the intricacies of everything bad within the Empire and you see how it is such a well-oiled machine created by the Emperor for his own plans, yet there is something so wrong with their meritocracy that the Empire ultimately falls due to its own infighting.

I've played the Sith Warrior origins a million times and I never get tired of the politics it entails. You see these side quests full of Imps and Sith struggling to keep the Empire afloat and you get these companions that show you what it means to be Sith outside of the Empire's bubble.

I wish more Star Wars content showed evil under more detailed lighting, because there is a lot of interesting things that could have been explored with the new content except every single story either has evil that is beyond reasonable or evil that has to be redeemed because they were good once upon a time (and that is booooring).
