Yeah because Obiwan was a 70yr old trying to regain his glory in A New Hope.
You're argument is false.
The characters are needed to continue the overall saga. Its not three movies unrelated to past events. Its a continuation of the saga with a new major arc.
1~3 was the rise of Darth Vader and the Sith
4~6 was the rise of Luke and the return to balance
7~9 who knows... but could be the struggle to remain balanced while the new infancy of a jedi order is trying to build itself and fend of the allure of the dark side to those that don't have a great number of Jedi masters to look up too.
