Definitely inspired by it I would say.
In the current continuity the Bryar looks like this.
In Jedi Outcast/Academy

I will definitely watch it BUT I have ONE (mostly rhethorical) question:
WHERE ARE ALL THE ALIENS???

This is clearly a sign of “human privilege”,it appears to be alienphobic.I will definitely watch it BUT I have ONE (mostly rhethorical) question:

They're everywhere! Since none of these humans are from earth, every SW character is an alien to us.I will definitely watch it BUT I have ONE (mostly rhethorical) question:

The ETs have been here. How d'you know Humans weren't taken to the GFFA by one of those ancient alien races, say, fifty to a hundred thousand years ago? A la Stargate. Heck, maybe several of the sapient species in that Star Wars universe were brought from elsewhere as slave labor, too. And, as those ancient empires collapsed, we were all left to fend for ourselves.
IMO, that book cover version is the best version. Someone on here worked on Jedi Knight and said they were going to post pictures of the actual prop years ago, but never posted them. I'd still like to see what the actual rifle/carbine looked like because the EU canon said it was a cut down rifle or carbine.

That's the model from EA's Battlefront game. Definitely inspired by the STG-44 I would say.
In the old EU, the blaster pistol had been made by cutting down a Bryar Rifle. That, and with the slow rate of fire and heavy inaccurate bolt, I'd think the real-world inspiration could have been a sawed-off shotgun.
If it means good storytelling: I'm in.
In a strange crossover, both Star Wars and Star Trek set their stories on the same “Earth-type planet”…

Since they both have "Star" in their names they must have been meant to be connected. At least that is what the current writers and show runners probably think.
I saw that shot and I burst into laughter. You have this show being promoted as a gritty, mature Star Wars show full of espionage and political intrigue, meant for adults and then you see a ship with a double bladed lightsaber taking out a few other ships and it struck me as hilarious. Pick a lane.
It's as though they forgot they were writing a Star Wars story. Tone is key here. Political drama mixed with revolution, brick walls, AK-47's, and.... lightsaber ships. This isn't my fight anymore and hasn't been for years so I'm not really upset so much as perplexed..
For all it's seeming potential it will be undercut by misused tropes to remind you you're watching a Star Wars show. I just find it funny.
