In ESB, Luke asks if the dark side is stronger, Yoda says no, only easier and more seductive. But most every time in the PT, the dark side beats the light hands down. Plus, the dark side can limit the ability of the light to sense things? I would of liked a bit more of a balanced approach to things. It seems like in the PT, the dark side is much more powerful.

Very good point. The rewards of the light side seem few and far between in the prequels besides seemingly the more noble thing to do. I guess it's kinda like white and black magic in RPGs, specifically Final Fantasy. But the power the dark side seems to have over the light side is horrible. "The dark side clouds everything." "Only the Sith knows of our weakness." "Our ability to use the Force has diminished." "The dark side clouds their judgement." Why can't the light side ever cloud the dark side's judgement? Huh?!
