Video seems a bit biased: most Japanese games they praise are sequels, most Western games they criticized are also sequels.
Nioh, a new IP, borrows from Souls games. Horizon Zero Dawn, also a new IP, borrows from other open world games. They both borrow. By the way, the two scored about equally on Metacritic but this video does not bring that up for whatever reason.
Also, how is the long development time for FF15 and The Last Guardian not valid criticisms against those two games? Ten and seven years respectively between announcement and release. That's about a tenth of a lifetime. And if memory serves, FF15 had a day-one patch! The Last Guardian was also not the most optimized game at launch either...
