Remember season 3 will only be 8 episodes to tell a more streamlined storyline.
This is a summation of an EW article on Wikipedia:

Are they done with the forced faked mystery bullshit that ruined season 2 and are doing a straight linear story this time?
Why single out season 2 when both seasons had same fake mystery shit?
Ditto to all points.
I love that season 3 is going in a completely different direction.
Not sure why people are hoping this is the final season. Robots taking over the real world doesn't seem like a 1 season arc, can definitely get a couple of seasons out of this as things escalate.
If anything, I'm concerned the scope of this will be too small and mostly boil down to Dolores team vs Maeve team and a side of dead humans. I want a full scale human vs robot war, maybe that will come in future seasons.
Also yeah season 2 was pretty frustrating. Had its moments but also plenty of bullshit.

S2 had two great episodes. The rest was so far up its own ass it was a complete mess and nearly ruined the show.
Probably struggling to make a coherent one.

I'll be stunned if they still don't shoehorn in some kind of twist.
I hope you all end up liking it, but the show has lost pretty much everything that drew me in back in season 1. Luckily season 1 is a pretty good standalone story by itself.
Loved Season 1 but Season 2 was so bad I don't have much faith in this being good. I actually had to stop watching S2 at some point and I finished it after it ended. One of the worst seasons of any show I've ever watched.
Season 1's "fake mystery" actually made sense though.
In Season 2 3/4 of the episodes raised more questions than they answered and when time came to answer those questions 80% of the answers were dumb.
Pretty decent recap of both seasons (and there is another video explaining the themes of S2 from the same channel).
Honestly, I love the show, and while S2 was definitely disorienting, Westworld will always be memorable for having such a breathtaking interrogation of free will/sentience and not just academically stating "humanity is good!". The Black Mirror approach to future Earth drives this home.
There's also this:
Alt Shift/Shwift X is always a delight to listen to.
Disappointing trailer. Season 1 was great because of the spectacle of the functioning theme park and the mystery underlying its creation and the character motivations. Season 2 lost a lot of season 1's charm by moving away from that and this seems to be doubling down on that direction. Westworld really should've just been a miniseries.
This looks so expensive.
Season 1 was perfect. We don't need to keep repeating it. This arc makes sense.

The visuals look extraordinary and there were some very high highs in the last season even if it came with some dumb lows as well
I suppose all you NEED to know is spoiled in this trailer: Dolores got out.
I'm assuming it will probably be pretty confusing not to know what happened to Bernard, Charlotte, Maeve, William, etc as that stuff will be a factor. Episode 4 and 8 of Season 2 are great, and there are some good moments sprinkled throughout Season Two. And since you wouldn't be watching it week to week you could power through the mediocre bits. I don't hate Season 2, it's just not the 10/10 Season 1 is.
Most likely no, but how would anyone here know? Season 3 isn't out yet.
