Two things I really like about this series:
- They have a commitment to creating environments that look lived in. Star Wars looks best as like "old ruins where people came in and put all their crap up around". Pyloon's Saloon, above all, is incredibly well-crafted (as it should be given how often you're there).
- In addition to good use of established species, they make good new species. Turgle, Tulakt, Doma Dendra, Skoova Stev. All brand new species, and because the characters are well-written and have their own complete stories, we get a feeling for them as part of their people.
