TFA was already much darker than the original trilogy, and I think that's based on today's movie audience's expectations. Han's deaths had way more emotional ramifications than Obi Wan or Yoda because we barely knew those characters.
It's been about 30 years since the OT and movie/TV tropes have changed a lot and unfortunately, killing characters is one of them. I think that at least one other character is going to die.
