Can you list 10 out of the last 3 years, not counting exclusives made by first party studios?

Absolutely! They're primarily done by the mid-tier Japanese developers with Sega, Koei Tecmo, and Namco Bandai.

Yakuza 0, Yakuza 6
The Atelier series (all 3 that have been released in the past 3 years)
Blue Reflection
Tokyo Xanadu
Mad Max
DanganRonpa v3
Toukiden 2
Digimon World
Shining Resonance
God Eater 2: Rage Burst
World of Final Fantasy
Star Ocean 5
Tales of Berseria
Nino kuni II
Hellblade
Vampyr

You can really expand the pool by looking into some of the PC only stuff, where Paradox, Creative Assembly, etc. release lots of new games. Also:
Pillars of Eternity
Warhammer: Vermintide
Divinity: Original Sin 2

Of course, some of those you might debate (and I tried to leave some more borderline ones out like Monster Hunter and . Yakuza is close to a higher tier but I've never viewed it as a AAA title. I tried to not include a lot of mid-tier Vita/3DS games from the end of their lives because the list would just be too long. I know there's a lot more out there, I just looked through games I bought.

I wouldnt call any of the bolded a mid tier game. Also, Hellblade is a weird case, I saw someone at a news outlet coin that game a AAA-indie game and it kind of makes sense.. and considerint the studio now is Microsoft owned and we know that means higher budgets for sure..  and is Yakuza really mid tier these days?
