Again, at least 3 started off with a different premise. Where it was like "Ok, well fuck John Connor, let's just fuck his whole world up instead!" as opposed to all the others that were more specifically "No, it HAS to be John Connor!"

I mean 2 is among the GOAT films. 3 was never going to live up to it, and it was mediocre at best. But 2 to 3 was a huge drop in quality and entertainment, 3 to 4 was a drop as well, I feel like genisys had a good idea ruined by a terrible director and spoiling everything in the trailers. Plus they butchered the film and cut out characters, it felt like a studio caused mess, like The Predator, F4ntastic, and whatever else.

6 tried something new and it honestly wasn't terrible, but it was also a low rent action movie, unable to even match the magic 1 and 2 had.

In short they've all been novel concepts but they've all completely failed the final product.

I don't see what's so hard about making a film that isn't shitting on the legacy, but here we are, a dead franchise later.
