While the storyline attempts to streamline previous EU cloning lore, it seems overly complicated and convoluted—akin to a science fiction soap opera. The notion of a purported vat of giant, deformed clones called "Snokes" in a cloning tank feels more like a throwback to classic sci-fi tropes rather than a compelling narrative device.
Fans often note that prior films and media lacked such explanations, leaving many to feel that this revelation is a last-minute patchwork, desperately trying to add depth where there was none. Critics argue that this rushed explanation only underscores the broader issue: Disney’s Star Wars saga has become riddled with overcomplication and retcons, diluting the story’s original charm.
