"The fact that the Emperor and Vader created the Rebel Alliance is a big flaw that messes with the entire narrative of the OT. There were multiple rebellions against the empire already but organa, mothma, and iblis had that meeting to form a united rebellion. The way the story presents itself is that only General Kota was being militant against the Empire at the time, so Vader sends Starkiller to go and kill Kota thus stopping his militia and that plan works as the militia is disbanded but Kota survives. Case in point the senators continue to be senators even after they had been captured and charged with insurrection, people say they can’t prove that but they had a droid (who was being Leia at the time) that was recording everything so all the Empire had to do after Starkiller was gone was not let Juno’s ship escape (in the dark side ending, Palpatine does hold the ship with just the Force so it doesn’t escape) and get the droid and have proof to show the Senate if it was needed (which I doubt because Palpatine was the ducking Emperor and the Senate was just there to give the impression of democracy). Obviously they can’t kill Palpatine because we know that he’s needed for story purposes, but the game lacks any consequences to any of the threads it created. See Ulic Qel-Droma for example) which leads to Palpatine frying the living out of Starkiller. Right as he’s about to kill Palpatine, Kota comes and says he can never turn back from that (a lie, because we have seen in canon people come back to the light after doing things worse than killing your adversary. Right before they are killed, Starkiller shows up and defeats Darth Vader in combat and proceeds to fight the Emperor who he also is able to defeat in combat. So now the leaders of the rebellion are on the Death Star, which btw breaks canon, and are charged with insurrection and sentenced to die by the Emperor. The rebel senators meet, and Vader shows up and captures all of them and has them brought to the Death Star (which by the way in the old EU was a secret until the time around ANH). So now there’s really no organized group going up against the Empire, until Palpatine and Darth Vader have the clever idea of creating an Alliance to fight the Empire and get rid of their enemies.
