I was really excited about SWGE, but when I saw the blatant price gouging, it really deflated a lot of my enthusiasm. I get it, Disney is expensive, but the prices at SWGE are pretty much insane. In fact, a few months ago it was asked on this page what I looked forward to the most and I said Galaxy's Edge. Today, I still want to see it because it's new, but I don't entirely get it: it is based on an outpost not really in the movies, not only is there no original trilogy, but not even the prequels. I am most confused about the cantina. I mean, the cantina from Episode 4 is iconic, but instead they based it on a some sort of "Star Wars-Like" version of it. Plus, some of the main experiences in the land appear to be based around collectively spending $400-$600 (droid, lightsaber, and cantina per person). If you don't want to do those things, I would imagine there wouldn't be much to do there...
Unlike most people, I really loved many of the new Star Wars movies, although I wasn't a huge fan of Last Jedi because the first half of the movie dragged. But, I loved both Solo, which I thought got undeservingly panned by everyone, and Rogue 1. So, I am not a hater on what Disney has done with the movies. I don't, however, understand some of their odd choices for SWGE. Fortunately, I think over time those types of issues could be remedied over time. Also, I still am hoping I am totally wrong about what I have written. After all, I was fairly apathetic about Pandora and now I think it is one of the best things they have done.
