Is there a lore reason for why Tech gets worst as the timeline moves into the future?

A long civil war followed by a period of stagnation due to no opposistion?

Or could it just be the fact that when the original trilogy was produced media could not convey the technology at the same level and we just have to suspend our disbelief a little rather than wanting every little inconsistancy explained in depth for us?

You've not provided any support for your assertion.

 Any examples of this could help,  I noticed that many of the advancements from the early trilogy exists in the KOTOR timeline but not exactly sure what is supposed to be better about the tech other than the fact that alot of the tech from outside the original trilogy looks more "futuristic" than some of what we got in the first three films.

another question. what makes the Skywalkers so powerful compared to other Jedi knights? I mean, why they so special?

Yes.

The prequels were made two decades after the original trilogy?

this, but for me its because its the Old republic, emphasis on the old. the civil war ripped the Old Republic to shreds, if i remember my lore correctly, and actually threw everyone back, except for the core worlds. then as mentioned above the birth of what should be the New Republic is actually just a continuation of the Old. instead of the devastation causing new growth, it actually was somewhat of a fatal blow that the Republic never recovered from.

feel free to correct me if ive missed it here.

"The person who experiences greatness must have a feeling for the myth he is in."

nice sig. very true.

Duh, they have a huge mediaclorian

from what i remember from kotor, the tech was almost the same as the movies and almost the same designs for ships and droids (a little less sophisticated), so i dont get where you coming from.

Techanically the force is suppose to be a pool like resource, the more jedi/sith pulling from it the less powerful they are. The less there are the more one person can pull from it.

Like so

Say the force has a pool of 1,000 points (the more points you have the more powerful you are)

Now that number doesn't change but say there are 500 sith and 500 jedi

Each one would get 1 point of the force pool to each. Thus they wouldn't be that strong

Now lets say we reduce that number by...say a whole lot

Lets say there are 1 sith and 1 jedi

Now theres 500 for each of them which means they are more empowered by the force. Thus they are stronger. The more jedi/sith their are the less of the force to go around.

The reason luke beat the other two is because he trained more and has team members on his side. He almost lost to the emperor if you recall until darth vader pulled a double cross and throw the emperor over the railing.

 No.  It's a video game.

Yea cause we all know Star Wars started out as one...    It's called lore, not gameplay.  It's unfortunate you couldn't understand simple words.

 Highlander might make an awesome pvp game

onsidering that Lucas stole his origibal trilogy from lord of the rings, i.e. the reason why the studios turned him down the first time.  It was to close lotr.  And most of the tech from the original was created by others.  hence tech getting better as time goes backwards.  If you were luckly to see the original interviews with lucas you would be shocked how star wars was originally written. 

Sad though. One of the greatest IPs in history was really stolen from someone else.

Sounds like most of the greatest things in history ever discovered...     There's a few things in this world that were uniquely discovered by one person, most are ideas stolen from others or twisted and manipulated into their own grand scheme of things.

 One of the greatest ip's in history was inspired by another as the law tends to dictate if he had "stolen" too much from the lore he would have been sued. 

My biggest issue with proclamations like this is that I am an artist by trade and the bottom line is artists are inspired by something or someone else does that mean that the artist is stealing from the product/person that inspired them?  No because chances are that person was also inspired by something or someone else that led them to create as well.
