    Dave Feloni is a clown. If you are familiar with the lore you end up being more pissed off with how he fumbles it. This is especially true if your a fan of Thrawn, Boba Fett or the Mandalorians.

    There are plenty of shows that are still entertaining without knowing the lore. How can you claim that Feloni is respectful of the source material when he’s turned light sabers into non lethal weapons, given Mando a ship that doesn’t fit with his role as a bounty hunter, or how he’s turned Thrawn into an idiot?

    Most of what you’ve listed haven’t been great to put it lightly.

    I’m tired of the Internet trying to gaslight me into thinking that Star Wars is doing well when it’s not. The past few shows/ movies that have come out have basically been:

    • “Creator” gets hired that knows nothing about Star Wars and wants to make their own thing under the Star Wars brand,

    • new thing flops,

    • “Creator” blames the fans.

    What makes The High Republic books, Ahsoka, The Mandalorian and The Bad Batch amazing? What about “gems” like The Acolyte, The Book of Boba Fett and Kenobi which I’m sure most people have forgotten about? Are they amazing?

    Star Wars is only alive if you live in the artificial consumerist hellhole that the online community created.

    What “market pressure” are you talking about? The game topped charts because it seemingly wasn’t afraid to have an attractive female lead while backing that up with fun gameplay. The difference with the Sonic movie was that no one liked the original design, and the movie wasn’t patched after people bought tickets.
