I really don’t understand the complaints about the limited factions.
Only ONE is relatively new (Hutt Cartel) and they’re mostly accelerated now, and one has a couple new characters (Tuskens). Overall, they’re factions that have been in the game for awhile, are relatively easily obtainable, and are needed for other legendary/GL type characters. Yeah, maybe everyone doesn’t have a full relic Tusken or Jawa squad, but Mandalorians and Old Republic? JKR has been ubiquitous in this game for years now.
I think that’s actually a very player-friendly move by CG and I applaud them for it.
