Is Taris worth saving?
No. Death Star it. Please. I beg of you
In all of its incarnations, Taris is boring, tedious, and entirely too long.
Now...as far as lore goes...Still, probably not. It will be entirely too expensive in credits, effort, and most importantly, lives. Not that Sareesh cares about that.
I was frankly dumbfounded to find her elevated to the position of Supreme Chancellor in the endgame. I would have thought that losing the planet to the Sith...again, would have been enough to hurt her career.
