It's the same game every year (sometimes twice a year) with little to no changes. Few adjustments are made to the game engine itself, and even fewer content adjustments.

 

It tells other developers that stagnation is fine as long as it makes money, and inspires lazy development.

 

Guess we shouldn't be excited for Uncharted 4, because we've had that same game 3 times now...

Five Uncharted games counting Golden Abyss over the last 9 years. All of the games have featured very similar gameplay, but has also been largely story-driven.

 

ELEVEN Call of Duty games over the past 9 years. All games have featured very similar gameplay, as well as having stories that are typically the butt of a joke.

 

So we have a little under two years per game for Uncharted with a great story, vs less than a year per game for CoD with what may as well be no story.
