Saw was intended for eight films, but since the 6th one didn't do as well they combined the plans for the seventh and eighth films into one and made the seventh Saw the final one, with the perfect ending.

Season 3 was met with many negative reviews, even with The Crystal Empire despite half of it being nearly as epic as A Canterlot Wedding, and the villain, who dies in the end, being darkar than her (mentioning his death due to disappointment of Trixie, Discord, and Sunset Shimmer turning good, even if some preferred a different fate for Sombra atleast he stayed evil to the end). Episodes like Just for Sidekicks and Apple Family Reunion seemed less interesting to some (myself included), as previously mentioned they hated Discord turning good, and of course, our Twilight Princess was surpassed in hate only by the announcement of Equestria Girls. The only episode everypony seemed to like was Magic Duel. (I know there were some who liked The Crystal Empire, Keep Calm and Flutter On, and Magical Mystery Cure as I did, but the majority disliked or hated them)

The only reason they're doing Season 4 is because they planned it before Season 2 was even finished, I'm frankly surprised they didn't scrap plans for Season 4.
