I have to agree, but part of it is because I thought Coil was amazing and had that real epic feel.
I didn't feel that with Alex, and I am getting a similar feeling with Omega.

Can't explain why, but perhaps it's just the fact that raiding in this game was a "new" thing to me (never played WoW).

Coil felt like you were actually running through a labyrinth. Alex began to feel like over-hyped trials, and Omega is starting to feel similar to me as well.

Perhaps Alex just turned me off quite a lot. The music didn't appeal to me at all, and the lack of lead-ups to the trials was kind of dull as well..
Was pretty much a trial in a different shell.
