New IP or not. They give completely different experiences from each other. New IPs arent normally a good thing. 

If it's not a good thing, then why bother gaming? 
It's fundementally important for human health to explore new things, proven through-out 50.000 years of ancient-history. 
The reason why 7th gen sucked was the lack of new Ip's... If you don't get depressed by seing the same titles every damn year.. GOOD for you.. But don't downplay it's value for others just because you don't like new Ip's..  We don't need that shit. 

Screw Colin. He said last year was average. And this year was that good? He's drunk. He had such a hard on for Bend's next game that he must be in denial on how much it disappointed

I first read that as are normally a good thing, because I find it absurd anyone would say otherwise. You sir have proven me wrong.

Minecraft Realms is so different that it isn't a game at all even.

You must be new to gaming. Ever heard of Nintendo? They have been making the same games since the 80s. Im not against new IPs but i dont judge something because its not new. RE7, FF15, MKX, SF5, UC4, GOW4, GEARS4, GT7, FORZA 6, MARIO KART 8, ZELDA, DONKEY KONG etc are all fantastic franchises that dont need to be new IPs to keep gamers gaming. Dont fix whats not broken. For example Halo Wars 2 is an entirely different game to Halo 5, Forza Horizon 3 is nothing like Forza 6. Just because its from the same franchise doesnt mean its dull or boring. The reason i brought into Consoles was because of those games mentioned above. I wont continue buying consoles if they started to shelve all there amazing IPs.

Been here since 4th generation, because the two previous generation before that i wasn't old enough to get passed the first level in Sonic. 

It's your opinion, if you prefer playing the same titles with no new titles to fresh things up.. It's your choice but new titles should always be welcomed

Well looks like im getting too old cause both didn't wow me.

Most of it was expected by me.

Days gone yer sure it was new but like the scenery felt like other games. It is like we are in a face of trees everywhere in games lol.

But he is kind of right though, people are getting more excited about the idea of a sequel of one of their beloved franchises. We saw it last year with sea of thieves and the dissapointment that their was no new conker/battletoads/Banjo,    Most people don't say they want a new IP from bethesda or Rockster but instead they want Elder scrolls VI/Red dead 2. I think those kind of wishes are pretty normal.  I really enjoyed the Old crash games and Forza horizon games that's why I am also more excited about a new Crash/forza horizon game instead of Sony saying we making a new platformer ip or Ms making a new race game.

I suppose Kojima's trailer was impressive if you'd always wanted to see Norman Reedus naked lol... I'll need to see more than him walking around on the beach in his birthday suit before I get excited about that one.
