Quoted from Hawkeyepin:

If there ever was a game primed for a playfield pop up, magnets or centered bash toy, clearly star wars was that game but it seemed like an opportunity was missed sadly.

But, in a nutshell that's not a Steve Ritchie game. He doesn't (usually) have bash toys or playfield magnets in his games. Well, there's a ram on GoT and the tie fighter on SW.... What his games do sometimes have are mini playfields, looping orbit shots and always lots of flow. He also doesn't over complicate the playfield with shots that not intuitive and not easy to make (GB). And look at GB as an example where JT does something more unique and there was a lot of backlash over the shot geometry.

I think expectations for SW were just too high for some to ever be satisfied with the game. Same with GB... Same with the next game.... Nothing personal, everyone has their opinion. I'm looking forward to my pro..
