Wanted to see if everyone would want to see some characters from the original SW EU. I think it would be pretty epic and also a nice gesture to all the writers who have kept the fans hooked on this franchise over the past 3 decades.
Thrawn? Mara Jade? 54 votes
I would love to see SW EU characters added into the game.
I don't want to see these characters added into the game.

Thrawn series was good but oh so much was awful
Btw greg, which books did YOU write in the eu? Oh yea, none. Easy to be an armchair qb huh?
I'd love to see Dark Jedi Luke, and the Yuuzahn Vong
Even being written by many different authors I loved the NJO series.
Kyp Durron
Mara Jade
Joruus C'Baoth
Tenel Ka
Lowbacca the Jedi wookie
And the list goes on.
Like his really real name? Han just calls him Ben for kicks?
Was it fan fiction to you before Disney wiped the slate, or after? Zahn wrote a great trilogy, and every author up until The Disney purchase drew from his writings and built onto them. That universe of stories became a part of my Star Wars world for a loooooong time. It still makes me sad to think Mara Jade won't be a part of it going forward.
I refuse to acknowledge that they picked that name. They took EU Luke/Mara kid name and gave to Han/Leia kid who, don't know Ren's entire back story, but became evil just like in the books...... Arg.
So I heard Disney has reversed its purging of the "historical documents."
Kylo will now be called Jacen, Rey will be Jaina (maybe she was frozen in carbonite as a child and didn't age?), and the next movie will feature lil' Ani with the bad temper.
No not really.
**** me off as well
Yeah... I hear you.
I don't really think they did that, what you said, for that purpose though. Trying to pull pieces from what they've deemed the EU and meld them in in their own way. I think Ben was just another layer of the Abrams homage to Lucas.
True Dat.. In my crazy mind they did. Still loved the movie though.
Yeah that's the thing... I did too. A lot. shame we can't have our cake and eat it too...
Now that you mention it, I want them too!
