I'm not going to spoil anything, but it's all as predictable as you'd expect. (Edit: I may have misunderstood what you said, maybe you have watched it already and meant something else) I wasn't a big fan of the prequel trilogy initially, but I have grown to appreciate it over the years/decade.

Some of what Disney/ new-Lucasfilm did post-acquisition was definitely intentional. I.e. Focusing on nostalgia rather than innovation, the past rather than look forward to the future. But most of it is just mismanagement. Hiring the wrong people, firing them when it doesn't work out exactly as they hoped, changing directions abruptly etc. etc. The most egregious, as I pointed out above, is hiring different people from the same series who are clearly not in sync with each other, and there's no creative showrunner to keep things consistent. It's a complete mess, though still a spectacular one.
