This is one of the reasons I really like the lore dive in the Knights of the Old Republic game.
You get down into the deep Sith philosophy, and yes, Sith evil, but there actually IS a deep ideology behind it where you can understand what they’re going for besides cartoonish evil for evil’s sake. An unrelatable and vile ideology, but an ideology nonetheless.

Disney would never allow someone like Revan or Kreia to exist in canon movies. Especially Kreia.
That being said, TV shows (like Andor) are seemingly writing their way there. Hence the Rakata reference.
BECAUSE the SITH are STINKY and EVIL
My comment is aging poorly TBH. Darth Maul is pretty sympathetic in his new show.
God I love kotor
Still waiting a bit longer before I replay it again
