There can be a happy middle. I think Mamare's the authors strengths at character introspection and world creation are by far superior than his skills at plot development. Not to say that the plot in Log Horizon (and Mamare's other series, Maou Yuusha) are not bad at all, I consider William's speech (and the Elder Sister maid's I am human speech in the other series) to be by far the climax of their respective works. And their respective worlds are just so interesting, even down to the politics, that sometimes I regard the plot to be an excuse to explore them.
Of course this is just my opinion. The past episodes have been slow as you say, and on a second read of my previous post I may have been a little high handed. My apologies.
