Is it because the quality of the books is decreasing, or because they are very diluted, with not many events happening?
From what I’ve read, so far its been diluted books. I just wanted to know the reason, as I feel like the quality of writing is still high, but not a lot is going on. In the last three books, we’ve only had one encounter with the forsaken, Sammael in book 7, but that was teased for the last three books.
Here is an abridged spoiler free version of the actual wiki summary for Crossroads of Twilight:
Perrin Aybara continues trying to...
Mat Cauthon continues trying to...
Elayne Trakand continues trying to...
Rand al'Thor, the Dragon Reborn, rests...
Egwene... maintain[s]...
When the plot summary is all people just continuing trying to do the same thing as the last book, or maintaining the same thing, or just resting after the last book, that's an indication things have got really slow.

My take is there's just one point where there's three books that should really have been just one. Crossroads of Twilight is the slow bit in the middle of a book, but it's a whole book of that.
