    • We are always thrilled at an opportunity to add a new original character to the Star Wars universe
    • It’s important that our players can see themselves in our game
    • People with disabilities belong in Star Wars, belong in games, and belong in our community
    • Designing Drogan alongside Leia allowed us to really set up what the team needs, especially to prevent players from destroying their CLS squad to make Leia’s

    We need more people playing our game, make him disabled
    This is not enough, make him asian

    Seriously, you don't need to justify why he have to be disabled or anything else, we already know that the path that Disney choose to include every aspect of the human society in SW, next you will have to deal with LGBTQ community, ....


    Is that a bad thing? Isn't it refreshing that Disney is including "every aspect of human society" in SW? (even thought they aren't really). These seem like positives to me, I'm not sure what the downside is?

    It is positive, what I am trying to say, that they didn't need to justify him being disabled because they want players seeing themselves in their game, they just have to make him a better back story than "the community".

    Ah, ok. Yea, seems like his back-story could have been more fleshed out. Maybe they'll be more to it during the unlock event?

    Actually we already have Sana and Dr. Aphra, and there’s nothing wrong about it

    So dagon is allowing certain teams to beat jabba, I assume CG would like that to stop considering they want the same from nightsisters beating jabba?

    Can't be having double standards can we now?

    CG hasn't changed anything about Merrin NS yet.... Their win rate against Jabba is pretty low...

    It's Drogan btw....

    Isn’t Echo technically disabled… especially after everything that was replaced

    Star Wars has a lot of characters with disabilities but Drogan is different in the sense he is born with a disability rather than being disabled later on

    Not saying Drogan is unique in this case, some of the defected clones were disabled and the term bad batch was there for a reason but they were clones

    Star Wars does a good job of representing disability either through birth or from consequence of war or other means

    I think it’s neat that Drogan is in that list except he’s not a clone or his disability doesn’t make him better at what he does (bad batch) but i think marketing his disability as a defining point is eh given the medium (Star Wars universe)

    It’s a nice definition but would be cool if there was more to him than a rebel soldier backstory

    What if he was a former nightbrother turned rebel or something
