Its the same pattern as movies, cookie-cutter patterns are most familiar to broadest audience and because of familiarity publishers push for those type of products to be pumped out for safe and large return on investment.

There are still smaller games/movies that are interesting and ambitious, just harder to find.

> there's a whole genre of "weird games" that can still be a lot of fun, because you're never sure what will happen next. The sense of wonder returns. Haven't found any good ones lately, though.

I highly recommend Inscription
