Do people think these Star Wars sets just exist already or something?

Yeah i do. After the new movies, several tv shows, and the galaxys edge theme parks they have a decade plus of star wars specific production infrastructure to draw on. They're not starting from scratch on this show.

Isn't this show set on a completely different time period?

Does that matter prop wise? I'd say I have above average knowledge of star wars lore and I have absolutely no idea how to visually tell the difference between say the old republic era and the most recent trilogy. The only thing I can think of that reliably identifies a time period in star wars in terms of visual design is storm trooper helmets.

There are actually quite a few awesome Old/High Republic properties.

You would think they aren’t starting from scratch, but each crappy shot of an underbaked Coruscant suggests otherwise.
