Love that they went deeper into the politics in the prequels. Wish the trade route blockade bit had been more fleshed out.

I want to see more Star Wars plotlines that aren't JUST about the heroes. Of course I haven't seen the more recent shows or played too many of the games. I think S1 or S2 of The Mandalorian is the newest thing I've seen. Haven't had the time to keep up and maybe there's lovely new Star Wars content that's perfect for me and I just haven't seen it yet.

I'd really love to see something in the lower levels of Coruscant. Like the cancelled game Star Wars 1313. I'd love to know more about the politics of different eras.

There's an interesting universe, interesting planets, interesting species and people. But most stories are about a select few heroes and villains (thankfully more than just the Skywalker and Palpatine lineages now). There's so much more that could be done without being repetitive. It's like a money printing machine that they're just not using.

You would like Andor if you haven't tried it already.

I have not, but I've heard good things. I'll see about adding it to my server.

It's about the inner works of the start of the rebellion, there are "heroes" yes, but it very down to earth and refreshing. One of top points of the series after Rogue One.
