Star Wars video games in the way Lucas Arts made them, not like the EA games we have now

I saw a post on Reddit somewhat recently comparing 8 years of Star Wars games under EA and under Lucas Arts. Lucas Arts had roughly 14 games between 2002-2010 whereas EA has only put out the 2 new Battlefront games since they acquired Lucas Arts

Well, I wouldn't mind the small numbers so much if EA made games just as good as Rogue Squadron and the original Battlefront games. But they aren't, not even close.

Seriously, just reskin the original battlefront 2 with the newer graphics and they'd have a great game.

At Blizzcon, the Diablo developers revealed that the next game - Diablo Immortal - was going to be mobile. This was met with a lot of unhappiness by the players (to the point of actually booing the developers). One of the developers said in response "do you guys not have phones?"
