“all men are evil and/or incompetent”
“Star Wars must get strong female characters”
“all existing original characters must be diminished in favor of new ones”
Add to that plain stupidity and illogical actions are always introduced due to very lousy writing … For example the Armorer from The Mandalorian, all hyped up that she had to go to the legendary forge, only to moments before seeing that forge she “must” go back to the ship in space… It made no sense.
Horseback riding and blowing up things on a Star Destroyer’s outer deck while it was in space/outer atmosphere…
“Somehow uncle Palpy came back”, and apparently had a cosy family and grandchildren whom he hoped to bounce on his lap one day…
Andor is almost an exception to the rule, as was Rogue One, I find it refreshing and surprising it knew to evade most outside influence.
I would never call either of them less Star Wars, they embody more the spirit that is Star Wars than what was done to Boba Fett, or Obi Wan, both core characters to Star Wars.
But even Andor was pushing towards incompetent and evil men. And Cassian Andor was changed from what he was portrayed as in Rogue One, a ruthless Rebel assassin/sniper: Show had him almost just wander around and stumble into situations.
As for Ahsoka, it mostly felt like Star Wars and I liked it for what it was, just rushed… And stupid concepts were introducted later on (like that “jump” that could just have been so much better with just a bit of thought behind it.)
In closing, I refuse to believe the blame lies just on incompetent writers hired on all those different projects, the decision makers clearly have a hand in releasing the finished products.
while i loved Andor, my main problem was in rogue one cassian heavily implied he had spent his life in the fight (pretty sure he even says something to those words) but then we see 2 years ago he couldn’t have been fucked
