Playing Star Wars: Jedi Knight Dark Forces 2 has me thinking about something.
Star Wars is one of those big media franchises (like the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Star Trek, Doctor Who, etc) that I never really got into, despite several attempts to try to.
I like it, but I don't love it with fervor like others do. Everybody will talk a lot about that franchise, while I have no major interest. Thus I feel like an outcast.
I don't know if that's a shared sentiment, or I'm just weird
@TonicBH I didn't see any of the original trilogy in the cinema but I saw them on VHS and terrestrial TV, and played a lot of the games (PC and SNES). Though I don't think the prequels are as good as the original trilogy they're still good.
The sequel trilogy is a great mature movie sandwiched between two pieces of fan service and that really soured me to the franchise.
@renbymon makes sense, I've heard that from several that the sequel trilogy soured their interest in the franchise since
for me, since I never really grew up with it (I never saw the original trilogy of films until a few years ago, my first Star Wars experience was Episode One!) I just have a general malaise about the series compared to someone who might've seen them when they were younger.
