Honestly I never really liked the idea that someone as evil as Vader could be saved. If Luke had succeeded right away and he and Vader took out the Emperor…what then? Vader doesn’t pay for any of his crimes? Because if he is going to pay for his crimes, he’s either going to be executed or spend all the galactic years of his life in prison. And if he’s not, well then what?
Same thing with Ben at this point. It’s too late.
I think there’s definitely a way to have Ben repent but then not let him totally off the hook. I think that might be interesting.
