Why is force lightning cool?

I have no affinity for the lightning element. If there are mage types in video games I'm never drawn to casters who can use lightning.

 

Yet for some reason in this game I find a class wholly based around lightning attacks to be super awesome. What is it about making it purple that I find so attractive?!

 

I guess because it's so classically villainous? It's such a typical villain power to use "dark lightning" or "dark energy" of some kind.

 

I dunno what do y'all think?

I've never thought much of force lightning either, especially after Ep. II killed it with 'I can stick up might lightsaber and the threat is nullified.'

 

When I see sorcerer in the game (and, really, sages too), I laugh, because I know they are disregarding the powerful weapon in their hands for wimpy bolts of lightning/pebbles.

 

The 'caster only' class was such a terrible idea for this game from the start. There never should have been 2 force-users per faction.
