They might have been OK if they'd even just have dialed the pace down. I think a lot of people enjoyed the shared universe and worldbuilding when it meant watching one or maybe two movies every year. It was a manageable amount of content, and meant that every new release could actually build some anticipation. After Endgame they really kicked the thing into overdrive, and completely destroyed the market through oversaturation. One or two movies a year? Fine. Five movies and seven low-quality TV shows on your shitty subscription service? Pass.
Plus, since they've constructed the whole thing to be a big interlocking story (which, again, was fine when it was only a movie or two a year), if you don't watch all of it, you pretty much can't watch any of it. I followed most of the films up until Endgame, but haven't seen any of them since because I know they'd be incomprehensible without having watched Shin Shitto: Interdimensional Esquire on Disney Plus.
