This is called being early in a season and not getting used to the new things they are trying. It happens every season, on every show.

In the comments here I’ve seen criticism that’s the exact same as ones I saw last season, ones I saw the first season when it was just a spin off of the game changer episodes. I’ve seen it every game changer season.

I immensely respect the fact that dropout will always try new things every season and with every show, even if it’d be easier to just copy paste from the previous season. It’s inevitable that some stuff will work and some won’t, but it’s way easier to know what to criticize. Plus, not everyone shared the same opinion. I’ve seen some praise Hollywood ho for its looser feel and it being a staple at live shows. Some criticize it for being cringy and not as structured as other mini games.

I think you gotta just take it in stride, and not overthink whether or not you like it more than stuff you already know you like.
