Sounds kind of desperate honestly. Would expect declining quality if even if they outsource some of it

ITT we learn that companies focusing on delivering games their fanbase wants is "desperate".

aka all of the big 3 are "desperate". Look at Sony about to rehash Last of Us. Mario Kart EIGHT Nintendo? So desperate.

Releasing games from the same franchise after a decent development time = not desperate

Making your biggest franchise annual because you lack the confidence and/or willing to take a risk on a new IP that could shift systems = kind of desperate

You know the rumor for Halo 5 is 2015, 3 years after Halo 4. Halo Aniversary 2, while not official, is simply a remake and meant to fill the gap. I see nothing wrong with this.

MS can announce new IP while maintaining their biggest IP by far, don't see why it can't be both and not this black and white viewpoint. As long as the main entries are 3 years apart, then it isn't desperate. Any games that come in between is fan service.
