Longtime PlayStation executive Shuhei Yoshida retired from the company on January 15, and as part of his departure, he sat down for a lengthy interview to discuss a range of topics pertaining to his time at the gaming giant.

This article is free of any spoilers for Star Wars: The Acolyte. But you can read a spoiler-filled discussion of The Acolyte season finale here if you’d like to read more.

In that sense, The Acolyte is a show that requires a second season, or else it’ll end up as an utterly poi…
