Campaign is not at all what was promised. [SPOILERS]

So I finished the campaign today and as a diehard Star Wars fan I've also read the Inferno Squad novel. This campaign is a complete betrayal of what we were promised during the development of this game. They made such a show about focusing on the Imperial side of the events after the battle of Endor. We got to play 4 missions as the Inferno squad we were told about and then in a completely out of character move They flip the campaign by having them join the rebellion.... Not only that but a good chunk of the missions you aren't even playing as Inferno Squad. It feels like a total bait and switch. EA had an opportunity to make a good story and stay true to what they said and keep the whole thing from the imperial side but instead we get Iden Versio the traitor who goes from Hard core life long Imperial believer to mushy rebellion sympathizer who suddenly believes in hope, and that the empire is evil and must be stopped. She felt immense guilt at having to kill stormtroopers during the novel when she was under cover but flip a switch and she's gleefully running missions for the rebellion cutting down her former comrades with wild abandon.... BAH!!! BS...

    The entire game is not what we all had hoped for. You know I played and can play bf1 for hours on end. My eyes would never get tired. After playing this for an hour or so my eyes start to hurt. You can barely if at all see anyone in the distance like you could in bf1. Expected a better game then what was created.

    Like what was said. Maybe one day someone will create a true imperial version. It sure won't be EA. They really botched the game in many ways with this one.

    I don't know why they thought that would be a good idea. Like it's so cliche having a character turn evil to good in Star Wars. We have already seen it so many times in the movies, books, and shows like give us a break. Here it feels forced.

    They also had the opportunity to show off what it would be like in the First Order or how they all started in the new DLC.
