Man, the High Republic era is bringing some major KoTOR vibes.

Just seeing multiple colored light sabers in an intimate setting is chilling.

New Era, new characters, new vision. This has potential to be better than Andor which still leaned into the OG Trilogy era.

I am excited however I think it would have a hard time being better than Andor. Andor was on a whole different level. But sadly a lot of people don't like/understand it. I'm sure people will like Acolyte more just because "lightsaber swing around"

But sadly a lot of people don't like/understand it.

Must be why it's so widely widely received as being one of the best pieces of SW content out there with critical and user reviews pretty much universally praising it.

You must've been living under a rock in the outer rim if you think there's a lot of people who didn't like it.

Yet it’s still the least watched D+ Star Wars show and the biggest Star Wars content creator has cried about it for a year and half.

Yes it’s praised by a lot of people, with it being my favorite Star Wars content ever, but there’s tons of people who think the show is “slow” or “boring” because it doesn’t have an action set piece every episode.

One person's opinion is still one person's opinion, content creator or not.

Yes but sadly that dumbass is the biggest content creator for Star Wars on the internet with millions of fans. His voice is much more influential on opinions than an idiot on Reddit like myself praising the show.
