There universe seems to have no scientific method. Just single people having bits of genius. Similar to are Ancient Greek Athenian thinkers.

That always bothers me in old sci-fi movies. They've got super advanced spaceships, but their computers are just little blinking lights and the green and black monitors I used to play Oregon Trail on in school.

I feel like that's probably part of the issue in starwars They simply never developed advanced computers If you look at it, everything in starwars is all crews of people using rather primitive control systems And apparently while they did develop advanced enough prpcessors to make intelligent droids nobody thought to repurpose that processing power for other things (or the hardware in droids is purpose built and not reprogramable, like logic chips hard wired together as opposed to general purpose and reprogramable computing hardware like what we have)

I said that to my uncle years ago technology helps the rich live in leisure. War helps the everyday man advance and gain that technology. The rich have to give the poor help, otherwise they( the rich) will be overthrown. Drunk thought may be true

The cycle will continue till the end of time

@@jasonbrophy5567 No, just until the end of the Living Force and all ability of living things to make use of it. The Force isn't an exception to the laws of physics, just another way to access them, and my theory is that it's finite; as more and more beings use the Force and more and more living planets are destroyed (and thus no longer able to restore it), the Force grows weaker, resulting in the difference in Force powers between eras... and the ultimate depletion of the Force, connecting the Star Wars universe to our own.

Here’s what I wish it was like in 1,500 BBY: The humans that originated on Coruscant have achieved interstellar travel for the first time. They only have exploration craft because they’ve never needed space-faring warships until now. The warriors went on to colonize the Mandalore System while the pacifists went on to colonize the Alderaan System. Some of the more daring humans built settlements in the Outer Rim, enslaved the native species and sold them to traffickers on Coruscant. The discovery of alien species and their local technology led the more ambitious humans on Coruscant to talk about one day making all of their home planet into one big Human Metropolis. The “primitive” aliens have different nations sharing single planets, have no spacecraft other than a few satellites and they still use projectile weapons instead of blasters. The fall of the Old Republic happens in 200 BBY instead of 1,000 BBY and the Roussan Reformation only lasts for 100 years until the Droid Invasion of Naboo.

The reason why technological progress seems to be in a state of stagnation is simply because there's really no incentive to create anything new. .

Lucius Svartwulf The problem with that is we don't know when the groundbreaking stage ends so you're just assuming that's the case. You're also ignoring very obvious flaws that could easily be fixed such as having to actually use human soldiers to use canons when you can use AI to easily do it for you. It also took them very long to figure out that the placement of the bridge is actually a very bad design flaw so it's more likely the writers had something to do with it. You would need something better because you're at war and your very existence is at stake and even when it's not, you still need to think of the future and potential threats because you never know whats out there.

Except, the Falcon acts exactly like a classic car when you don't have the money for a restoration...

The Hammerhead class heavy cruisers was used by the Old Republic for 5,000 years. They would simply retrofit any new technology using the same hulls and same design whenever they built new vessels.

bs... I’m still using tech from the 70s. This stuff isn’t made to break. Some breaks because it does, some can’t keep up with our new software etc, The iPhone argument doesn’t hold up either, The newer phones are lasting longer and longer than the older ones because their hardware is advancing faster than software. We’re teaching a plateau where tech growth is slowing. Yeah it’s becoming more everywhere, but we’re starting to struggle doubling it’s power every two years. Unless quantum computers take off soon we’re going to reach the physical limits of silicon chips and tech will plateau just like you see in star wars.

I think he means, major and Galactic wars. We don't really need to know about some territorial dispute between two peoples of star systems for control of some nameless gas giant in a neighboring uninhabited star system, in a small sector in the Outer-Rim that which has limited contact with the galactic community, that's threatening to spill over into a minor hyperspace trade route which might lead to a dip in stocks for some company that manufactures bargain hydrospaners.

It doesn’t necessitate major innovation in small arms, most pressure for development is taking place among hypersonic missiles, tracking systems, satellites, cloaking, and cyber warfare.

The rate that technology increases has always gone up exponentially though, the club was used for 100,000 years, the sword 3000, and the musket only a few hundred before it got outclassed.

I would agree however humanity has exploded in the tech game in terms of human pacing. Just in the last 300 years, we managed to completely ditch everything that was normal prior that mark in time and technology has continued to explode up the chart. At this rate in time, we should be traveling planets in the next 300 years.

@@badbeardbill9956 I'm not sure I follow--explain. "Money availability" for who? Luke, the character or Lucasfilm Studios? What "art style differences" are you referring to?

You might look at the advancement of medicine during the American Civil War. For example, in times previous, it was know that a person with shrapnel in their brain yet surviving, could experience change of symptoms for the rest of their lives, including death . The conventional wisdom was to remove the shrapnel, ideally removing it in reverse on the path it entered, as if the brain was like any other tissue. By the end of the war, trial and error and careful study had improved knowledge so that a surgeon with the latest information would know that attempts to remove the shrapnel would mosikely cause far more damage than the existing wound. Ironically, after Abraham Lincoln was shot, he heceived a mix of treatments based on new and old knowledge. Doctors did much additional damage. Though, the shot was fatal anyhow.

Yes, meesa so stupid. Definitely not sith lord, hahaha. Meesa dumb dumb gungan, blah!!!! (Sticks tongue out and makes deer antlers with hands.)

I would almost say that the drive to innovate is what is lacking. For example, the very same conditions that sparked the Industrial Revolution existed previously in history... the Roman Empire had a surplus of food, wealth, art, philosophy, and engineers... but it also had a surplus of manpower. Thus there was literally no reason for the Romans to develop a functional steam engine to accomplish what they already had a thousand slaves to do. So in the Industrial Revolution was driven by a need for more power output than the manpower could provide in Britain.

@@briangriffin9793 "We could improve this landspeeders speed but, it's fast enough for everybody's desires as is. How about we improve the navigation system and comforts instead?"

That's so true even today, we're already capable of building cars that can reach speeds of 1000kms, but except for concept cars no one is manufacturing them. After all, there's only a handful of places on Earth that you could possibly drive them at that speed, so what's the point of building them? Better to invest in softer seats and more cup holders.

JUST TRAPSUKI, and Earth's circumference is estimated 24,000km (correct me if I'm wrong) so... why not invent food that regenerates instantly, it would be very satisfying, pizza anyone? 🍕

Doesn't that break the law of conservation of matter and energy?

However, by the end of it they couldn't develop any of their advance weapons. It is forgotten that eventually at certain point war begins to consume to much resources and destroyed enough of the infrastructure that you start to regress. This actually happened in legends with the New Sith Wars which utterly tore the galaxy apart, destroyed the holobet, and left untold number of worlds in ruins.

One Dyson sphere capable system would be able to churn out fleets of tens of thousands of ships and support population of hundreds of BILLIONS. In civilisation of this size it would actually be expected for fleets to consists of hundreds of deathstars.

In legends the stormtroopers helmets carried a communication device. I do agree though Imperial technology is far less advanced then everyone else. It’s definitely due to them being created in 1980. Most likely

In shows like rebels and comics Imperial Stormstooperd had comms in there head

@@user-tc5mu4gi7u you don't know if the person who is telling the story is actually from even further the future

I think it more had to do with the fact that jetpacks were expensive and difficult to train. which was the complete opposite of the cannon fodder expendable nature of stormtroopers. There were already specialized troopers who were more expensive and valuable to produce, and adding jet-troopers into the roster just adds another expensive unit to train and fund for. Though by the events of RoS, It's likely the First Order decided to just go for it and train up troopers to use them.

@ZMan1471 the clones didn't have shields. Personal shields were extremely rare among solders in general. Droideka were one of the only examples of a personal deflector shield. Also, the empire favored the use of starships. And had less intention of ground defence or assault when they could help it. So camo was less ideal when the troopers would be deploid in missions where they intend to be seen. Like the check points on tatooine. They're not hiding so there's no point in having camo. There were the beach troopers in Rouge One, and they had camo specifically because they were specialized to have defense roles for the base they were stationed at.

those kaminoids are real private, but they were more advanced.

I totally agree with this. While the video searches for answers within the universe, your answer focusing on the world building is defenitely true. Star Wars ships and technilogy are iconic.

I like your comment 8/8.

I remember reading some fanfic that was a crosower of the two universes ages ago and it did go like that but the federation almost got overwhelmed due to the numbers and the size of the imperial ships. It was a fun little story. I think it was called The Rift or something along those lines.

the old republic had a lot more conflict plus a cold war with a very angry sith empire from the korriban genocide so there is more incentive to advance technology than the republic or empire which had no competition

No

Meme Man Fresh yes

I do hope canon’s Old Republic technology is on par with the technology shown in the Tales of the Jedi comics, several elements of which have already been canonized.

There's miniaturization and optimization. Look at the sizes of the engines and compare their output. Modern engine that weighs 8 kg gives roughly the same power as 80 kg engine from 1910's. So, when there's nowhere else to go, the ships and weapons should become smaller and more compact while retaining their power and effectiveness - thus, "new" star destroyers should become smaller and at the same time gain firepower compared to their huge predecessors. Smaller size means better maneuevering. Also the bigger the thing is, the more it costs in sheer materials used for its construction. Battleships went "extinct" for a reason. It isn't the case because on screen it's difficult to show. It's easier to gain the audience's awe by producing SUPER HUGE STARSHIPS to the point of insanity to display power and progress of technology, especially that the said progress is never the main point of the stories.

@@EnclaveTrooper1 Oh I dunno, with the sea-going examples a modern carrier or even nuclear sub dwarfs some of the old battleships. I've visited the Mikasa near Yokohama in Japan and she is really not that big. And the Empire strikes me as more of a "grr look how powerful we are" type of power. A single Star Destroyer already had the ability to render a planet's surface uninhabitable with it's standard weapons, the Death Star was a totally pointless extravagance the resources of which could have been used to build thousands more Star Destroyers. Maybe the rebel fleet wouln't have been so elusive then, either!

Sir Devonaire it was a waste of resources

Not a ton of raw materials out there. I mean, Jawa Sandcrawlers are left over ore mining vehicles from after they figured out the hard way Tatooine was pretty barren. :/

In case of incorporating Hutt Space into Empire, Empire would have to face incredible corruption, so such operation would give next to no profit

Plus, Palpy has the ability to hire seedy individuals, like in Empire, to do things that a SD showing up on your doorstep can't do. Aka: being subtle. So keeping that option open seems advantageous for the myriad of systems in the backwater tier of space that doesn't normally rate having a SD deployed there. Good gravy i love talking about star wars! And i love this channel!

In fact, while the Empire avoided outright war with the hutts, they did place blockades to prevent drug trafficking between the two states.

I mean that's an ongoing event in Star wars, alot of tech is lost or destroyed and has to be rediscovered or found. For example cloning was basically lost, alot of the best cloning techniques were lost, and it was inevitably too expensive anyways.

Yes, maybe, but also not really. There is a sort of vision to what technologie can and cannot do, that differs from author to author. For example, if you read 'The Three Body Problem', things are a lot different. There, light speed is the absolute maximum anything can travel, and technology simply cannot break that(not even in a sneaky way). But boy, can it break other things. It's a real good read, too, highly recommend it.

Its yes, but its a little more than that it also has to do that there is no such thing as an innovation to explore new techknowledgies in fact, they dont even know if theres more galaxys outside there own galaxy

CaptainPositron maybe he’s actually talking moisture farming?

I'll take this question. Firstly, they need radar. As far as I can tell, it doesn't exist at all, with humans aiming the ship guns by hand. Secondly, using computers integrated into a product instead of running around looking like the Tin Man or a trash can would allow for much more specialization and decentralization of processing power. Third, miniaturize those computers. Stick them in everything. The guns are a great example. Fourth, where in God's black sky are the missiles? You can't go 5 miles in a modern battlefield without running into anti-aircraft defences, whether in the form of MANPADS or fixed SAM sites. Fifth, there is a complete lack of explosives used in Star Wars. It boggles my mind how any civilization fighting a serious war can completely miss the advantage of mines, grenades, and missiles. Sixth, battlefield tactics in Star Wars remind me how Communists fight wars: just throw people at it. That's not how you win wars, that's how you lose people. Seventh, there seems to be zero anti-tank weaponry as well. Contrary to popular belief, tanks are not meant to duke out with each other. Killing tanks is for infantry, artillery, or air support. First rule of warfare: never pick a fair fight. Eighth, there is no battlefield air support. Either because the two sides are too close to each other, or they simply don't have the precision (put computers in the guns, for Pete's sake), orbital bombardment is reserved for ransom threats exclusively, and gunships seem to be the better part of non-existent. Ninth, you have personal shields, or so you tell me, I certainly can't see them. You get a shield, you get a shield, everyone gets a shield, and if your military can't afford that, maybe your militaries' financial decisions should be called into question. Tenth, your "lasers" are a little on the slow side. Weapons should be fast, guided, or both. Neither is just asking your target to move a little to the left, and while you're at it, could you shoot back, if you've got the time?

⁠​⁠​⁠@@mage3690 You clearly known nothing about Star Wars based on this comment, let me break this down for you. They do have radar, but they also have highly advanced ECM. As the Katana fleet incident has shown integrated/networked computers are a dumb idea. Their computers work just fine and what proof do you have that they can’t miniaturize them? And really stick in everything including their blasters it’s like your asking for someone to come up with a way to explode your blaster by hacking the computer you stupidly installed into it. They do use missiles they’re just very expensive when compared to blaster tech and can be baffled or shot down. Really no explosives you must of been watching a different movie because I distinctly remember a disguised Liea threatening Jabba with a thermal detonator. They do have anti-tank weapons we just never see them because we never see tanks in the movies. They do have air support. They don’t use orbital bombardment because using orbital bombardment for infantry support is stupid and dangerous. They do use computers on their guns shut up. And they do have gunships we just aren’t shown any in the first trilogy. They do have personal shields they are just extremely power hungry and thus usually no worth it. Oh god not this again, blaster bolts move just as fast as bullets just because you can see them doesn’t mean they are slow(example tracer rounds). Also they don’t use super advanced computers because that’s how you get droid rebellions. If you’re going to talk shit about Star Wars actually learn the lore before you embarrass yourself even more.

@@mage3690Also you are aware of when Star Wars was first made right?

@@stubbornspaceman7201upon further research, yeah, they do have radar. They never use it, which is my complaint. "They have highly advanced ECM." Ok sure, I'll bite. Do you know how ECM works? I do. It goes a little something like this: any sensor capable of spotting a metal basketball at 100 miles or so through atmospheric clutter is bound to be pretty sensitive. ECM is the blindingly obvious solution of "hey, let's point a flashlight at this highly sensitive camera, it won't be able to see shit." If you're thinking "hey wait a minute, why isn't everyone just shooting at the guy WAVING A FLASHLIGHT AROUND IN COMBAT," they are. It's just that modern combat doctrine stresses that EW aircraft remain in the backline, and it's why the USAF is looking into drones and decoys to do that job. It also doesn't work against anyone who comes to the blindingly obvious solution of "hey, I have more than one radar detector on my freaking enormous battleship, what say we link those detectors up and perform a minor amount of trigonometry?" Or "why don't we link up our little fighters to each other and channel a wee smidgeon of our inner Pythagoras?" It only works in modern combat with truly networked sensors because decoys exist. And decoys don't exist in Star Wars, at least so far as I can tell, other than that one mention in that one book that led to that one entry in the Wookiepedia. And yeah, if your computers are so great you can whack what appears to be a sentient AI in a trash can, put a computer in a blaster. Not connected to the power supply, definitely not controlling power output, and _definitely_ not capable of connecting to anything further away than a hand on the trigger, that's a clearly idiotic move and no one in their right mind would do that. No, what you want to do is put a camera in the scope, provide aimbot, mark all enemies spotted or shot at by your weapon, transfer that mark to your helmet (through your hand, of course), and broadcast that mark on the battlefield network for literally everyone to see. Or have a hive mind of targeting computers controlling your ship guns instead of having one guy on each gun just shooting at whatever. One or more guys designates targets of opportunity, and the guns do everything else: pick the guns that are going to kill it the deadest and the soonest, coordinate their fire so there is no escape, and move on. This system could do things like notice that capital ship grade battery is going to intersect that fighter's trajectory with a minimum of rotation, take the shot, and go back to doing whatever. Is it inefficient? Yes. War is inefficient. You are quite literally lighting money on fire, blowing it up, and shooting it out of a cannon. Besides, this is a laser. Shooting them is practically free. Plus, WTF evidence do we have that computers even _can_ be hacked? There was a whole enemy type who were literally droids. If that isn't incentive to hack someone, IDK what is, yet they never got hacked in any meaningful way. Not only that, if droids can't be baffled, the same thing should apply to guidance systems. A computer is a computer and a camera is a camera, no matter what they're mounted in. Oh, and sure, blasters are cheaper than missiles. So are guns of every shape and size. There is quite literally no missile that could not be replaced by a projectile fired from a rifled barrel for a quarter of the cost. Any missile in existence today can be baffled or shot down, and do get baffled and shot down quite literally on the daily. Yet we still have missiles, because they provide an obvious advantage: range and payload. No matter how fast or good you make a gun, laser, blaster, whatever, a missile can outrange it and likely deliver more hurt to the target. Also, this brings me to my point on explosives. What I meant by a lack of explosives is not that they don't exist, it's that there isn't _enough_ of them. They barely exist in any meaningful capacity, other than as plot points. They *should* be _everywhere._ Flying over your head as artillery, flying after literally every fighter, tank, and ship in existence as missiles, littering the ground at choke points as mines, flying in doors before troops do as grenades and more missiles, etc. Heck, I found mention of a missile with the size and appearance of a blaster bolt. Why everyone isn't shooting exclusively guided missiles around the battlefield is beyond me. "But it can be baffled." Oh no. Now it's merely an explosive blaster bolt. Whatever shall we do? Plus, the exact kind of gun that's good at shooting down a missile is _excellent_ at shooting down a fighter. If you don't have enough missiles and decoys to give every one of those guns two or three targets to shoot at, you're going to lose an awful lot of fighters awful quick. This brings me to the point on blasters. They're not lasers. Everyone agrees they're not lasers, except for a few goofy lines in the movies. Everyone agrees they're much slower than lasers, and much slower than bullets, for that matter. Here's the trouble with saying they're lasers, and therefore travel at the speed of light: in the movies, you can _very_ clearly see blaster bolts traveling at a certain speed, and impacting whatever they're about to hit at that speed, and not before, as you'd expect if all we see are artifacts from the rolling shutter effect or smth. You can also see people moving in the same frame as those blaster bolts, same as you can see the blaster muzzle light up when fired, and not after firing. What, is the speed of light slower than a fastball in the Star Wars universe? PS: WTF are those things at the Battle of Grassy Planes in _The Phantom Menace,_ if not tanks? Yet I saw no anti-tank weaponry, other than "rush it and throw something down the hatch." That tactic was used far too often in Star Wars generally for me to assume that AT weapons are anything more than a joke.

@@stubbornspaceman7201 and yes, I know when Star Wars first came out. 1977, about a decade after the F-4A Phantom II, the first fighter jet in US history to lack an internally mounted gun in favor of missiles. It failed, but only because the missiles were _too_ good. US pilots began shooting each other down, and after a few too many of those incidents, the US required all pilots to visually identify enemy aircraft. Turns out, when you're that close to enemy aircraft and you don't have an AIM-9X, sometimes you need guns. WHO COULD'VE SEEN THIS COMING?

Not really, but as far as they needed. We have some arts of science being at peak now (f.e. anatomy of healthy human is perfect, we won't find any new organs I guess), but tech can always advance. Point is: what for. F.e. implants. If they work perfectly as real limbs, eyes etc. all they can do is to make them cheaper or more durable/requirung less maintance. After that? Putting flashlight in finger? Holographic game console? It's like pencil. Actually pencils. They've invented graphite in VI centaury and throug ages all we invented was to put rubber at the end (plus ergonomic grip, but only some people like it). In LXXXIX centaury we will probably havesame pencils if people will still write/draw on paper. In MCMXCIX centarury same thing.

@@Petaurista13 We invented mechanical pencils tho

Adding to this they may have also hit the limits of what they could do with the materials available in universe, at least for mass manufacturing. Technologically they have the knowledge-base to make improvements beyond what is commonly shown but the materials, alloys and other such things might not be scale to the levels of manufacturing output of a place like Kuat Drive Yards or other companies of such scale. They would certainly be produced and sold (Bacta is a good example, albiet for medical uses) but said products would typically be considered as a boutique item or custom upgrade as compared to a mass manufactured ship subsystem. It also allows for the things we see in universe where heavily customized ships and weapons are able to massively outclass their initial design specifications but would probably cost much more then purchasing multiple vessels of the same type in stock configurations.

@yo pierre what organ did they find?

Nero Studios a lack in development into plot armor

Nothing. In fact Hyperspace tracking was used in A New Hope via planted beacon, it was used in Attack of the Clones in the same manner. It was also the reason why the Rebels would scatter when leaving a system after a fight to then meet up at a rendezvous point later after multiple jumps like in Empire Strikes Back. If there was no hyperspace tracking then why would they do that? There would be no reason to do that if hyperspace tracking was not a thing. Imperial Interdiction ships would also not know when to activate the interdiction field when policing hyperspace lanes if they had no ability to detect and track entities in hyperspace. Hyperspace tracking was simply not used as big of a plot point such that an entire movie was built around it in the past. The Last Jedi took what was basically a given and tried to paint it as something new. As for sure the Rakatans who invented Hyperspace travel would certainly also create a system for tracking ships using it in order to police their empire. Naturally since Rakatan hyperdrives were reverse engineered their tracking systems would as well.

TankHunter678 also you could say computing power now instead of which way they went you can real time track them

It was always a technology even in the clone wars. This is what pisses me off the most about the new trilogy. They don't even know their own butchered canon.

What is "The Last Jedi" ? Is it good?

It's all about more powerful Pew-Pew in the SW universe. And it apparently always has been...😏

I LOVE stellaris !!!! Im doing an old republic themed playthrough rightnow and I am totally going to make the switch from republic to empire when the time comes lol. Wish I could build a deathstar

@@nagollnosegrobbb2165 With Gigastructural mod, you can make an Attack Moon. It is basically a death star

@@nagollnosegrobbb2165 You have planet destroying superweapons. it's just not shaped as a ball.

The Movie Version of Starship Troopers. Not the Original Book. As a Fan of the Book, I need to emphasize that important distinction, since the movie is so much different than the book.

Have you ever played Elite Dangerous?

....because he already made the videos. Didn't you see the poll for when he only had one video available?
