I agree. They help make sense of the plot and viewer’s expectations for Luke. He can both have made mistakes with Ben and still be a powerful Jedi.

Yoda has by this point admitted that he screwed up leading the Jedi, and Obi-Wan’s taken responsibility for how he failed Anakin, but that didn’t stop either from doing what needed to be done.

I want to see the same for Luke and this edit helps show that.

Delpheas hit the nail on the head there in his response.

Not a he 😉

Also I have a request maybe try adding Mara Jade via a dialog that implies she died before the sequel trilogy just thought it would nice to see a core legends character come.

That would be cool to include, though I’m not sure I have the capability to produce something that is believable enough. I will ponder how to include as an easter egg perhaps.

Personally I think the thing that solidified Luke’s position vis a vis Ben is he killed Mara, like in Legends where Jacen did. The only way to include this would be if you could add a VO of Luke saying he saw that Ben would kill “the love of my life” or something using some sort of voice synth.
