I have wondered where games will be a few years down the line. Look at gaming just a few years ago. To present day standards it's astronomical.

Graphical improvements are nice but variety seems to be cutting down. Games are all just re using and copying other games nowadays

Apex legends for example is literally titan fall 2 battle royale.

But you can't blame them for taking easy money.

There are an excessive number of "remastered" titles or reboots, but there's always been a lot of rinse/repeat with game design. Series like COD, Assassin's Creed, or any others that have spanned more than 5 titles tend to re-use a lot of the same concepts/gameplay. The one thing that always improves is graphics.

I don't always think it's an inherently bad thing, since certain genres benefit from the re-use/improvement of existing concepts. I love that RPGs in particular use a lot of the same systems/concepts of games from even 30-40 years ago. It mostly becomes a problem when nothing new is added to the equation.
