In any case... People need to write stories vs just rehashing all the ones we already got. I mean how many resident evil movies and shows are there? Far more than there should have been.
After all, mass effect was a tremendous success because and most people playing it thought it was a fantastic RPG experience despite tunnel like gameplay, stolen storyline, blend characters and horrible UI. Halo was more emotionally engaging and it was bloody FPS! But they didn't know how incredibly deeper RPG were 10 years before it when it was a niche genre.
Anything that is reaching mass adoption is at the risk of being a shadow of itself.
Baldur's gate 3 is the delightful exception, not the rule.
