Obi Wan has no idea of what VADER "COULD" become. They did a remarkable job of helping to understand Obi Wan's true love for Anikin as a brother. He didn't walk away from winning with any thought of Vader being the BIG BAD in the future, only that his brother was truly dead.

I’m happy i didn’t watch past the first two episodes.
It was blatantly obvious where it was going.

It’s the same formula over and over again

He’s seen Vader slaughter all his Jedi brothers and sisters along with countless others, lead the Empire to complete control of the galaxy as enforcer for the Emperor, but yet he still walked away not knowing how bad Vader was?

There is no future evil that would ascend Vader to a further level of bad, he was already there. That’s not why he walked away.

He walked away because this show was full of plot holes and dog shite writers.

A New Hope - Leia’s message to Obi-Wan if viewed after this show…

“Obi-Wan, (wait should I remind him that he went on a rescue mission into the Inquisitor Fortress to save me 9 years ago from that dumbass Inquisitor? Or that I fixed the bay doors while he fought off 100 storm troopers so that all those civilians and us could escape? Or that he tried to groom me when he departed Alderaan? Nah, I’ll just go with this) “You served my father in the Clone Wars…”

OBW knew 3 things for certain

1) Vader was closer to discovering the identity of his kids than ever
2) Vader was growing stronger
3) He was the only person left that could take out Vader thus handicapping the emperor

And yet he let him live. Plus his faith in 3rd sista not exposing the kids was still very weak, because he rushed to Tatooine to stop her

There is no competent storyteller on the planet that could allow Vader to survive going forward. Kennedy wants all girl power stories, but in her gut knows that DV and OBW are still the drawing cards. You tell the same story using only Leia and 3rd sista and Idira, and no one watches

This miniseries is reminiscent of sticking Laura Dern in command from out of nowhere in the final trilogy. Her entire story line was a Huge WTF? Oh I forgot. Female!
