Even as a sith. He still tried to do some of the things he once did as Anakin to re live those happy times he had before and during the clone wars. Painful he repeated this lonely cycle.

[@mistahjenkins4826]

Sidenote: When in the meditation chamber on Coruscant, it wasn't that he could be comfy. Instead, if was so he could meditate. See, Meditation in Star Wars does a lot more than calm ya down if you're Force-Sensitive. You can also do so to heal injuries, albeit slowly. One thing he tried to do every so often was heal his lungs, so he didn't need his respirator. However, due to A: his bottled up anger, B: his trauma, and C: the sheer damage his lungs took, this often ends up not working.

[@lonestar2078]

and I'm reminded of what Sam Witwer said about Starkiller "meditating": being intense and not actually at peace because Vader was his master

[@Fordo007]

I remember in the Shadows of the Empire novel it went into how Vader could use the dark side to heal his wounds and how he hoped if he kept at it and got stronger in the dark side he could sustain the healing effect indefinitely and get out of the suit. It seemed the dark side healing was just temporary while the more common light side healing was longterm. At least that's what I inferred from the old EU continuity.

[@Oodelally]

The problem with dark side healing is that it requires continual and intense ruminations to fuel the healing trance. Vader felt joy when he realised he had healed parts of himself and therefore could not maintain it.

[@daveortwine2641]

​@@Oodelallythis situation has been bothering me for a long time now, how did anakin not know what force healing was? Like apparently grogu knew how to do it and he was apparently at the jedi temple training on coruscant at the same time as anakin. So how would anakin not know of this ability? And rey, someone with no jedi training somehow knew how to force heal. Please make it make sense for me

[@Sarah_Kinz]

@@Oodelallythat’s such a kick in the head. Anakin was always so afraid of being alone and losing everyone. And he did anything and everything to try and save padme. Even making a deal with the devil. But in the end? To save her all he had to do was be with her and be himself and not the twisted version the dark side made him. If he had just stayed anakin skywalker instead of letting Vader kill him, padme would still be here. In the end Vader got everything he wanted: fame, glory, palaces. Except padme. And in the end, he was alone.

[@user-we6ls1fp2d]

He also hunted Tuskan Raiders for sport. And made improvements to his suit. He made his suit cause more pain to further anger him driving him deeper to the dark side

[@WARTHOG_BRRT]

One of the saddest sentences said in the Star Wars franchise is “it is too late for me son”

[@njmfff]

One of the coolest moments in that very scene is when Luke is taken away and Vader stumbles a bit (similar to Yoda in Ep3), because Luke actually managed to reach out to Anakin and Vader becomes conflicted between his commitment to Emperor and his love\memory of Padme. People often underestimate how much true love for someone can change you on fundamental level.

[@olivialeger3647]

Darth Vader: I used to have a pretty good life. Where did I go wrong? Hm... illegally executing an prisoner was probably a mistake. And I might've overreacted a little to not becoming a Master. Spying on the Council for Paplatine wasn't exactly the smartest career choice. Murdering a dozen small children wasn't a great look. Then I beat up my best friend and choked my wife to death in an uncontrollable fit of rage. Wait. Was I the bad guy??

Vader regretted his choices. He never wanted to be evil, he just wanted to save his family. But once his wife died and the jedi were gone he had nothing left and submitted fully to becoming evil

[@jm7804]

He submitted fully to becoming evil right after Mace Windu was killed. He slaughtered children immediately. Padme was not gone at that point. He choked Padme for god sake. You're not really looking at the timeline closely.

[@SABRE117]

​@@jm7804 well you could argue about that, even in the end he still had good side in him. I think him commiting fully to dark side was rushed by his master, he manipulated him and said that only the dark side can save his wife, so he needed something to quickly become a sith, what could be better than a bunch of younglings xD after all of what happened in the 3rd episode he just lost hope and submitted, so I think The New Hope was not only for the galaxy but for him too :)

[@Doomzdeh]

@@SABRE117 That’s still evil, bro. Killing a bunch of innocent children to save your wife is selfish and peak evil. Padme would have never wanted him to do that. Don’t forget that he turned on Padme almost instantly after she rejected him for all of the horrible things he’d done. He probably WOULD have killed her if Obi Wan didn’t stop him.

A monster who is responsible for killing billions and billions of people do not have present downtime. Most likely the ghosts of all his victims were torturing him every single moment of his life.

The last time I saw the MMPR Red Ranger Macy’s balloon was in 2018. I was in the parade, marching behind the balloon, playing a clarinet and wearing a tricorn hat. It was my freshman year of high school. An absolutely unforgettable experience.

He was master debating with the empress.
