Any sequel stays roughly the same and the reviewer goes

"it's getting stale and didn't innovate enough"

Then another will come out (mostly the Nintendo games in their big franchises) and they stay pretty much the same and the reviewer goes

"it's more of what we love" or in Nintendo's case "it's the Nintendo magic and reminds me of being a kid!" because they grew up with those franchises which isn't fair in the slightest as they're bringing their own nostalgia into it.

I very much agree with this.  I've seen excellent games get criticized for "not innovating the genre" while "jump when the game tells you to jump" games seem to get a pass.  That makes no sense to me.

On a related note, the way some people act like FPP games are somehow doing it wrong.  I think that's one of the more ignorant sentiments in gaming.
