@milo123 They, quite literally, constantly "try something new". Have you not been watching? Have you ignored the variety of the recent announcements? And the reason this time period is "done to death" (though I very much disagree with your pessimistic take on it) is because it has proven, time and again, to be incredibly popular and a point of intrigue. Many people are curious about what Star Wars looked like immediately following the Republic's downfall, and this show is yet another of its kind lending insight into just that.
Inter-connectivity and recent cameos have been done correctly in Star Wars and excite avid fans, so your gripe there is unjustified. And Star Wars does its best to cater to all audiences, making your comment that it "can't figure out what it wants its audience to be" a moot point. There's something for everyone. I don't see the validity of any of your above issues with this franchise other than to prove yourself a detractor or a critic. But to each their own, I suppose.

Star Wars is turning into the MCU, relying on inter-connectivity and cameos, some work better than others - it makes a big universe feel smaller than ever. Some work better than others but at this point this time period has been done to death and I just wish the franchise would try something new. It still can't figure out what it wants its audience to be.
