Given that the devs are video game players of other games, they had to have known that it would not draw in people who liked other genres of video games. It's not going to draw in people who like strategy games because there's no strategy. It's not going to draw in people who like FPS games because, well, you can't even call the light saber fights interesting after the novelty of getting a light saber. It's not going to draw in either adventure players or rpg players because the quest system itself is the same unchallenging thing over and over. I'm not sure it would even draw in new players at all given how bad the reviews have been.

For me, I am simply into Life Simulation play with some fantasy like fairies. Star Wars is not a fantasy I can begin to wrap my head around, not even enough to watch lets plays of it on youtube. However, I have watched reviews on it.
