>Not an argument, just your subjective opinion.
It is an argument, and it is objective. There is no reason for the Empire to look almost exactly the same as OT Empire, flying triangular-shaped Star Destroyers, having TIE-fighter looking fighters, having plastic armored troopers, for the Republic to have Tantive IV looking soldiers, and for everything in general to look just like a worse version of the movie design.
>You're thinking of SWTOR
No, I am thinking about KOTOR. SWTOR continued that trend and worsened it.
>Archetypes are meant to be recycled.
Not when they are in the same plot points. Then it's stealing.
>Only Tatooine was reused in K1, you disingenous faggot
Tatooine, Taris was budget Coruscant, Kashyyyk.
>This one is 100% true
Glad you agree.
>TotJ art style was wildly inconsistent and just plain bad most of the time. Bioware did the right thing by making the aesthetics more streamlined and recognizable.
It was more interesting, creative, unique, and it was more ancient. It suited the 4k in the past period much better. But Bioware ditched something interesting and opted out for recognizable Star Wars look, despite it making no sense whatsoever.

Also note, that if you applied your logic consistently, you could defend the sequels in the same manner. So why is it okay when KOTOR did it, but not the sequels? Both have similar flaws.
