It might be a huge universe but it is creatively stifled when the entire thing is centred around wars in space. Conflict seems to be integral to the whole thing, and a civil war conflict at that. The sequel trilogy was creatively bankrupt because they treaded the same ground that the OT covered. At least in the Expanded Universe the galaxy came together and fought an external threat in the Yuuzhan Vong, similar conflict tropes but a different angle at the very least.
Unfortunately Disney still seem to be walking down the same path that came over 40 years ago, a galaxy with infinite possibilities where nothing changes.
