I think your getting confused with how a game plays to what an IP is. Resident Evil 1 is different to Resident Evil 6 but they are the same IP. The new GoW is different but it's still the same IP as the original. So to answer you question of course GoW Red Dead isn't new IPs. Did anybody suggest they were?

No but as i said before, TS asked if Horizon might be the best new IP of this generation but i'm sure he didn't have something as familiar as Bloodborne in might. He is talking completely new series here and not spin-offs, Bloodborne is just to similair to the soul games to be regarded as something truly new.

No disrespect but most of your post you talked nonsense. Bloodborne is a new IP, FACT. Spin offs can be new IPs to but what was spun off Dark Souls to make this a spin off. What relation do they have do they have other than being a typical From Software game? Different name, different settings different characters and has a gothic victorian compared to the medieval look of dark Souls. 

 

Should we start calling all of platinum games spin-offs because most of there games have similar gameplay mechanics? Is Uncharted a spin-off to Tomb Raider? Theirs a lot of shooters out there that play very similar to each other, Do they spin off from each other? 

 

Like I said, I can see why some will call it a spiritual successor, but that's the best link you'll find between Bloodborne and Dark Souls.
