I watched Andor seasons 1 and 2 then watched Rogue One. If I saw Rogue One first, there's no way I would have watched Andor.

Rogue One had zero character development. The plot was way too rushed. It was an OK movie at best and nowhere near Andor

Rogue one is a terrible movie that ends with the best fan service battle of all time.

I'm not a Star Wars guy but a friend talked me into Andor and I'm so glad he did. It has none of the elements that made me shy away from the franchise.

Rogue One, on the other hand, has almost all of those elements. Bad pacing, predictable "twists," characters I'm told to care about but never learn enough about.

I'm glad it did but I was shocked that people liked Cassian enough in Rogue One to make the show. He was so one dimensional!
