I get what you are saying about some people being obsessed with continuity nowadays , what gets me is that a lot of comic companies , especially DC , reboot their continuity just about every ten years , so to me , it’s kinda pointless to bitch about these things .While the early Star Wars material is what I favor , I do like some 90’s Eu and beyond and some of the connectivity like Tales Of The Jedi linking up with Dark Empire and later material etc . and I love the Heir To The Empire trilogy and Thrawn Duology . I think it got overblown after the New Jedi Order though and the cast of characters got too large and hard to keep up with , so I lost interest . Now that I think of it , this is kind of the same thing that some diehard old EU fans are upset about with the sequel trilogy …
