Review: Star Wars: The High Republic – Light of the Jedi

Charles Soule is a good writer and has done a solid job introducing all the basics of the High Republic, and it is a good starting point for this new Star Wars transmedia project. Light of the Jedi also a masterclass of detailed worldbuilding. However, the heroes lack characterization and they seem, at times, brainwashed.

Ar’alani, Warrior and Guardian

Characters like Ar'alani, who is both warrior and caregiver, general and friend, are more of what the world needs today and until the fight is won, may the warrior's fortune be with us all.

The Sims 4 – Star Wars: Journey to Batuu Review – Part 1
