    Really all it meant was if you had Force Sensitive parents, you'd be Force Sensitive, which is still true. The Skywalkers are just an anomaly because of Anakin. Once you remove a few generations (apparently it only takes one) and things get back to normal levels.
    No I meant Force sensitivity. I disliked that. I just wish it was a skill like any other.

    "But why isn't everybody a jedi!"

    Why isn't everybody a master at Yoga or Statistics? Some people just have the desire for it and others don't. Maybe some genetic desposition exists (Fragile bones for instance) but generally anybody can do it and beat the odds.

    However it wasn't "That" bad before. Its certainly WORSE now.

    Because by focusing on the force as something that "Randomly Awakens" its even moreso some random trait at BIRTH.

    By removing Training as a Requirement and focusing even MORESO on the force as just birthright, Random chance at birth determines force merit in star wars now because sloppy sloppy lazy Rian.
