Curious to hear if this would appeal to anyone.

EDIT: accidentally wrote "Endless Space" which is a space grand strategy game. I actually meant to say Fractured Space which was a capital ship MOBA game that shut down, similar to Dreadnought

Maybe something like Star Was World of Warships, Fractured Space, AC Black Flag or anything like that where you'd control a capital ship with all of its weapons and maybe even launch starfighters from your hangars etc.

So Maul Shadow lord recently re-awoke my passion for Star Wars so I went back to watching lore deep dives and I can't help but notice how cluttered, disorganized and poorly thought out the IP has become with anything that isn't a Movie or TV Show. It's also feeling more and more claustrophobic with how little room they make new stuff in the imperial/prequel era.

Eli Vanto and the Chimera crew were huge characters in the second Thrawn trilogy and I remember being immensely disappointed they weren't even mentioned or acknowledged in Ahsoka. Instead Lucas is choosing to go back to Legends with Caption Pellaeon being the only crew member we should care about and it seems either the Yzong Vong or Abeloth arc is up next. The thing is that the Grysk were a huge factor in Thrawn's motivations and in a show about him being in the unknown regions not once are they brought up and judging by the direction their going in, are never to be brought up again.

Kanan's backstory getting retconned in Bad Batch while a cool introduction and sets the tone feels like an immense downgrade compared to his original comic origin.

Then we have Clone Wars, Jedi Survivor, the OT and BOB making Boba feel like an entirely different character every time he shows up. The first depicts him as a morally grey character making a name for himself trying carry on to his father's legacy and be a morale person. (relative to his colleagues I guess.). The second has him be a neutral agent only in it for the money with him willing to let Cal go despite his personal vendetta against Jedi feeling a bit out of character. Then Empire and Return make it clear he is not a good person as he is comfortable associating with people like Jabba despite knowing what he does but we're still supposed to believe he believes in honor. BOB has him being old grizzled and an overall decent guy despite everything that he's done. That's not even mentioning that by reestablishing Jango's backstory with Jastor, it makes no sense for him to be so apathetic to Mandalore/Mandalorian culture when his father raised him to have their values and he apparently cares about them enough to wear his dad's armor and believe in following a code of honor.

Then there's how the Inquisitors are depicted in all their appearance with Rebels, Fallen Order, and the Vader comics showing that willing or not, life as an inquisitor sucks. Brutal "training", initiations that are practically torture, threats of death if you fail, and actual death if you so much are still capable of feeling love. Meanwhile bombing or not, Barriss got in and out practically unscathed when her confession explicitly said she still held dear to the light and accused the Jedi of fighting for the dark side. It just feels unnatural for her to get in so easily when it's clear as day she's the only one in their coven who isn't a psychopath. She had such a minor personality shift when compared to all the others that it was just sloppy to let her out into the field and not expect her to immediately abandon the cause.

Like they chose to pull from their stuff or legends but only what they feel like and it makes the broader world-building suffer for it. With how poorly the mando movie did compared to other SW films and the creators refusal to leave the Prequel/OT era when their running out of room, at this point it feels like it would be good to start fresh. What do you guys think?

Easy to miss since it is just a small plaque along Opatija's famous seaside promenade.
