It was Anakin's attachment that pretty much played a part in him turning to the dark side. He couldn't accept that Padme was going to die and like Master Oogway said "One meets their destiny on the path to avoid it" and him seeking more power to cover come death is what led to Padme's death. I think a lot of people judge Jedi too harshly about their code. Rather than avoid attachments, learn when to let go instead. The Jedi aren't emotionless, they just can't let their emotions consume them at their lowest points.

While there isn't a star wars zombie game there is the story of the black wing virus

That's right, Palpatine made sure the cybernetics crippled Vader to a degree

Growing up, I LOVED the Jedi and the Order, I wanted to be one... but as an adult, and after watching this show, I see how bad they actually are. I would never want to be a Jedi. No attachments is SO stupid.

*cracks knuckles* alright so Darth Bane. He was a powerful Sith Lord and one of the best lightsaber duelists. He was also the one who created the Sith Rule of Two. This was in response to how the Sith used to operate during the Old Republic where there were a ton of sith and infighting as well as sabotage and other forms of fuckery were rampant. So Bane decided to stem the tide of countless Sith running amuck there would only be 2 Sith at any one time. Consolidating power for himself he introduced the plan, and so the sith went into hiding. Influencing from the shadows. Palpatine, and his master Plagueis the Wise followed this rule. I'm missing some inbetween stuff on Sith history such as the fall of the Sith Empire and the Old Republic.

Additionally, while there is no horde mode akin to zombies, there is a Star Wars horror book called Death Troopers (Zombies! In Star Wars!) It's legends continuity because it came out in the early 2000s and now conflicts with the timeline of the series due to Han Solo and Chewbacca being present in the story. The close we come to horror in a star wars game is the beginning of the second set of levels in Star Wars Republic Commando (The Acclimator) and the gamemode from Star Wars Batllefront 2 2017 Ewok Hunt. The gamemode pits Imperial Storm Troopers against Ewoks. At night. In the jungle. In first person. With limited flashlight battery.

I would argue that Luminara and Windu embody the biggest problems with the late republic Jedi order.

I think Eric forgot that they are at war so it would be better if they learn about the worms in case they use it again.

I used to feel the same way about Luminara in that episode but after many, many rewatches I think we kind of mischaracterized what she said and did. She mourned Bariss, but it’s not like she prevented anyone from searching for them. The gunships were there clearing debris and searching. All she really said was that she was prepared for the possibility that Bariss and Ahsoka may be gone, she didn’t say “oh well, fuck em, let’s move on”. I sympathize with Anakin but that was definitely his biggest flaw, being unable to let go. Yoda and Obi-Wan even talk about it in the Clone Wars movie. The whole reason they gave him a Padawan was because they hoped it would teach him to let go. Again, not saying he shouldn’t have been so insistent on finding them, but I think now it’s a mistake to say Luminara didn’t care at all.

Star wars Republic Commandos is the closest you'll get for a horror fps it's set during this period of star wars and there is some dark levels with these enemies infact vs your squad. Imagine Halo/Gears of War but Star Wars.

Can confirm, the cybernetics in Darth Vader's suit were incredibly bad for two reasons. The first was as you say, to cripple Vader for when he inevitably turned on his master. But also to further his descent into the dark side by having the constant pain and suffering from those robotics.
If Vader wouldn't have been cut up in EP 3, it's very possible the galaxy would have been under his thumb for the indefinite future.

The famous breathing of Darth Vader is even because of the suit being designed to hurt him with every breath

Crazy part was despite these intentional handicaps vader got used to the suit, adjusted his fighting style, and used the connection he still had to the force to empower himself with the dark side. Lore wise it's why pre ANH or even during ANH Vader is considered weaker than his ESB to ROTJ version which not only he got all his exp before ANH but also his drive was furthered from Luke.
