attempting something new with the SW universe is ok. playing Mad Libs inside of a single storyline is not.

He didn’t go off on his own though in the last Jedi. He took JJs key points and moved the story forward. Luke a hermit on an island with the only explanation being his failure with Kylo and the Rey/Ren relationship. The who is Rey and who is Snoke was fandom created and doesn’t really exist in TFA on its own.
TFA created the first order, and Rey, and Kylo and 30 seconds of classic JJ mystery box garbage. That isn’t world building.
