      ​@@MrcreeperDXD777 i would say is the fact the visor is just two almond-shaped down-turned "eyes", instead of a full visor or a slit, like clones had. It makes them tunel vision. So, only can see what is directly in front of their noses (Anakin/Vader's helmet avoid that by his visor be two fully circular, dome-like eyes. Tho his vision is impared by the brow protection on his upper half oh the helmet).
      IIRC the first models of the stormtrooper helmet were more tight fitting and had a internal computer connecting the helm and the blaster wirelessly, allowing elevation and distance support to where the blaster aimed. Yet when the Empire's domain on the galaxy was cemented, and the fear of the white armored soldiers were established, the system was deemed too pricy and unecessary anymore. That would explain how in universe they were considered so accurate, yet at the Galactic Empire's last years of existence the stormtroopers spam-fired inaccurately: no fire support system, plus a bulky helmet with bad FOV, and possibly bad training.

    - He saw how some of his brothers were traitors.
    - He saw the atrocities of the war, that totally later in life gave him ptsd.
    - He went trough his own mental conflict if what he was doing was right, or what would happen to him and his brothers once there is no war.
    - He saw some of his best friends die in front of him, or beign tortured or enslaved.
    - He had to betray for a breif moment ALL what he stood for, just to follow orders.
    - He saw how his brothers turned against him, and tried to kill him.
    - He was lost for a moment of his life, adrift, with no purpose, because he was no longer needed, his other brothers were driven into treason AND in their eyes, he was scum.
