The morality system does work, but GMs need to be very deliberate in triggering it. If someone wants to play a light side character you have to actually challenge their morality.

For example, the Jedi character has an audience with a Hutt. This is the morality character dealing with a very immoral creature, so if you let the player simply talk to the Hutt and go about their merry way you're not GMing the morality system correctly. Staying on friendly terms with an evil gangster must be difficult for a morality character! For example, the Hutt throws one of his slaves into a Rancor pit right as the Jedi walks in. Simply watching this happen will cause conflict, but stopping it might cost you the Hutt's favor.

When you GM the morality system correctly inaction causes conflict. It's the violence, suffering and injustice in the galaxy, and how hopeless standing against them seems that drive the majority of conflict for someone who's trying to be good.

Yes, but you still have to remember that the game isn't how long can you survive, but immersing yourself in the star wars galaxy

The struggle of staying in the light is part of the Star Wars galaxy. If you pick a Force wielder as your character that should be part of the experience. It doesn't have to be futile, the GM shouldn't put you in situations where you can't win, but it shouldn't be an easy ride either. The Jedi experience in the Rebellion era is being outcast, hunted, and a danger to anyone who gets close to you. Of course that's not everyone's cup of tea, but that is authentic to the setting. You can always run a campaign set in a different time if you want less dark Jedi adventures.

That was my point
