EW felt like a really plot driven story, while everything before it felt more character driven AND plot driven.
This is one of the downsides to very long drawn out sagas. Times and ideas change , plots alter , and the reveals/truths/reasons for are less impactful because it took far too long to get there.

It reminds me of the amazing tv show L.O.S.T

When they realised that they actually needed to start making sense of the bizarre place the survivors ended up being and what was actually happening their reality was was just an "oh that was what it was all along" moment.
