Who Should Make The Next Star Wars TTRPG, And What Should It Look Like?

[Reynard]

I will say this though, the RPG won't feel like Star Wars to me if you can't have Obi Wan Kenobi, Han Solo, and Cassian Andor believably in the same universe.

These people are literally all from the same era.

Obi Wan isn't prominent prequel trilogy character? I don't see how if I'd listed Captain Panaka, Jango Fett, and Obi Wan Kenobi it would have made a difference to my point. Or Captain Rex if you prefer. Either way, all in the same universe meaningfully together and also capable of interacting with Han Solo.

Given that we already have Star Borg, Rebel Scum, Scum & Villainy, Notorious and countless others, do we need another new system? Just take the Star Wars official stuff and put it on RPGs that the hard work has already been done for.

Pick which bits of media you're going to draw the most from, grab your system of choice, an encyclopedia or wiki, and go. Whatever system is put out will get endless complaints about how it should have been a different system, with different dice.

Yeah I’m not sure where the 5E reskin will set records confidence comes from. There been many imitators and even straight SW versions of RPGs and they never really take off. They do collect small hard core fan bases tho.
