I think the most succinct way I can describe the main difference, and what people have been alluding to, is that the game was driven by people before but now the game is driving people.

Bingo. I've described it in the past as, the winner used to beat 15-19 other people. Now they beat the game.

Honestly, I think a lot of this is kinda "you had to be there." You haven't been watching for a long time and have only seen a handful of seasons, and are missing out on some of the best ones. For those of us that have been around since the beginning (at this point I say if you were watching by, say, Palau you were there "at the beginning") the feeling is really different.
