My nostalgia of Star Wars got ruined by the terrible new trilogy movies and terrible tv shows. Sole exception being Andor which was amazing, but definitely an outlier.

Then people wonder why nothing new has come to replace the +50 year old franchises. This whole century is an exercise in monetizing nostalgia; it’s what the lengthening of IP protections paved the way for, and it is sort of stagnating culture.

Yeah. Pragmata was a pretty cool original IP that came out recently. But it’s seen as a risk to be original now

To be fair, Mass Effect 5 wasn’t exactly going to be an experimental original thing either.
