So what if it is? Why do people think that's such a bad thing?

I think most people would agree that profiting off of the works of others is a bad thing.  Even if you're not talking about moral implications, it's worse for gamers.  Games that break the mold, challenge conventions, and change things up advance their respective genres.  Something like Heavy Rain or Shadow of the Colossus moves the industry forward while something like PASBR stagnates.

 

why aren't you criticising nintendo for releasing super mario bros u, pikmin 3 etc?

i'd think that if you were so concerned over the lack of new ideas in gaming you'd be far more critical of what nintendo has been doing 

how many actual new ips has nintendo themselves been developing for launch window in comparison to old ( imo overused ) ips?

yet somehow i don't remember you making this point then
