One of main issues for me is I don’t like that Anakin was basically tricked into joining the Dark Side in ROTS.

This is very true. Still, if ROTS fails at basically everything it was “supposed” to tell, all the rest surprinsingly works fine. it works terrific as the conclusion of the PT; it doesn’t quite capture being the sort of introduction of the OT. Real pity because only a few minor script adjustments would sell it totally. It still qualifies as my favorite PT chapter and probably my favorite SW released since ROTJ (TLJ, its twin brother movie, is almost as good).
