It's a fair point though..I have no idea who that is.

I thought it was that general from Light Side Geonosis until I quoted it and saw the name of the file.

Anyway, look, I’m not saying Hondo isn’t a great character that shouldn’t be in the game. I’ve never seen Clone Wars or Rebels (no tea, no shade, no lemonade—saw a few, couldn’t get into it, it’s not for me, that’s fine. Happy it exists for the many folks who love it!) so I won’t judge his merits as a character. But a Galactic Legend is a character that anyone with even the most passing knowledge of the franchise would see or hear and say “Oh, I know them.”

Ask an average fan who Hondo is and you’ll get as many people that know him as you will people who think you’re talking about the John Wayne movie.

I don't think that will remain that way too much longer. After this set of galactic legends, they will have likely exhausted the iconic characters that everyone will recognize.

They could potentially do a mace or Yoda and a second version of palpatine but I don't see them having multiple GLs off the same character.

Most of the iconic characters of the ot are already in the game. Ex jedi Luke and ep.

So they are likely to be diving into the newer shows for new characters including galactic legends. These characters will likely be ones that those that only watched the movies may not recognize. I could definitely see getting a GL ashoka and thrawn as the next few seasons of the mandalorian and the ashoka show play out.

And if you didn't watch clone wars or rebels, you may not know who those characters are either.

Though that may be a bit down the road since I don't see them getting ahead of the show releases. We may get an old republic GL while we wait fo r.c the shows to catch up. But again, probably not a character everyone will recognize.
