The Twitter feed of former Square Enix business director Jacob Navok is a treasure trove of arguments that I don't entirely agree with, but I find myself nodding along to his comparison of Final Fantasy and Star Wars. In essence, he says, both series have the same problem: the established fan base is getting older, and what should be the new fan base is very small.
Navok shared a report, citing Variety, which noted that Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu has not gone down well, struggling at the box office and earning some series-low ratings. For the first proper Star Wars movie in seven years, that's an especially big problem.
