Remasters are not too big a problem. Lots of people want to play these games again, they don't replace other games and they bring in more money for devs and publishers at a time when they really need them.
As for the rest of the industry, there is less creativity than the 6th gen, which was gaming's peak. The decline of the Japanese industry, especially the mid tier devs but the larger ones also, are the main reason. Western devs compare better to where they were a decade ago, but they are more risk averse in general. That being said, I am still optimistic about gaming this gen going forward. There are lots of games coming that I am very much looking forward to, and although not as many of them are new IPs as I would like, I fully expect to look back on this gen fondly.
