In the vein of Tales of the Jedi, a new series of shorts is dropping on May the Fourth. Holy crap this looks good to me. Much better than Acolyte.

It's kind of embarrassing how much the cartoons just run laps around the live action series. Ahsoka, Mandolorian and Book of Boba all would have gone up a letter grade if they looked this good

I'm very dubious that they can make Barriss make sense

When you don't have to deal with annoying things like sets, and actors...
If one can harness the tech that gives cinematics of the quality of the game Diablo III or IV (the cut scenes as but one example are very good, as are the intro and outro scenes for each act) why would you go for the lower grade stuff that was in these trailers?

This style was designed for producing an actual show on a TV budget and going for a photorealistic level of detail is very expensive and largely unnecessary, the style still works and looks good.
