In the original trilogy, Force powers were quite subdued. You could mind trick someone or use mild telekinesis and minor acrobatics. Even Master Yoda took a lot of concentration to lift up an X-Wing.

I do miss when force powers were rarely possessed and took a lot of training and focus to muster just in mildly impressive ways.
They've sure cheapened it since.
Mind-probing and suspending a blaster shot in mid air, and now taking a ship down from the sky has blown the force into ridiculous territory.
It was actually mystical and awe-inspiring in the OT films. It's just too easily summoned and manipulated now.
