In the previous seasons, the viewers could just sit back and watch the action unfold. In this season, you really have to do some thinking yourself, if you want to enjoy the story. This was a really sudden change, so I don't blame people for being put off by season 3. It wasn't that it was "too clever". It just wasn't that much actual forshadowing. Us figuring it out means there had to be clues, however there was nothing. I'll admit that Savitar didn't make a good 'Who's under the mask' mystery, but have you considered the possibility that he wasn't written as one? Also, there seems to be a myth going around that the audience had to wait 20 episodes for the reveal. Savitar even having an identity to speculate about, was only confirmed in episode 15. So the audience only had to wait 5 episodes for the reveal.
