Resident evil series figured out a new release every year or two.
Final Fantasy figured it out.
Mario figured it out.
The call of duty franchise figured it out.
Game sequels should at most take 3 years to release.
After that its too long to remain invested.
Rockstar only gets away with it because there is a nigh and day difference in quality with each mainline release.
Even Assassins creed has it figured out.
5 years for a gears of war sequel is too long.
5 years for a spiderman game sequel is too long.
The world doesn't have the time to wait that long.
The only time you get away with time spans longer than 5 years is when you completely revolutionize the quality of the game in the sequel. Making a night and day difference in quality.
Half the AAA titles out there have a hard time doing this.
GTA VI and Death Stranding 2 are the only two true AAA titles worth looking forward to right now.
Next year is going to suck.
Other giant studios need to start doing an activision and have multiple smaller studios working on the same franchise to get one release out every year or two at most.
Conclusion:
The ps6 is going to be even less impressive than the jump between the ps4 and the ps5.

Yeah the sequel is going to be shit sorry not sorry. They didn't get the chance to evolve the genre for more than a decade. No learning opportunities, and they don't have rockstar money to level up the whole thing.

'Member when studios released original games, and occasionally, those became a new genre in themselves?
I'm not sure time matters so much for a game like GTA though. It's not as if there's an ongoing plot to follow. If I feel like buying GTA VI it's because I expect it to be good on its own, not because of any loyalty to the franchise.

New thing? Really?
Jump in the discussion.

the long dark, 7 days to die, and other similar games are a relatively new genre.
stuff like unreal world or minecraft have been around for ages, but they aren't the same kind of thing IMO.
no more than than bomberman on the NES or mods for minecraft fit battle royale genre, even though they fit the bill of
last man standing multiplayer game

I never give a frick and haven't given a frick if a sequel game releases in either the next 2, 3, or five years and beyond. The last time I gave a frick about sequels was Deus Ex Mankind divided because the buttholes at Eidos and Squeenix were too busy tossing salad to give us the closer that left the first game on a cliff hanger. It was bullshit.

no chance elder scrolls is going to suddenly suck

It's hard to imagine how they can dumb the Skyrim formula down any further; that is the consistent trajectory of Bethesda's mainline franchises, gradually making stuff simpler
Not even necessarily bad, go back and try to play vanilla Morrowind
I think that is what people are anticipating, but again, I struggle to see how that's even possible. Granted, I didn't play their new spaceslop game

starfiled sucked. i never even finished it. maybe the most disappointed i've ever been in a video game.
i still haven't went back to it since the mod cowtools came out. eventually i will and hopefully mods make it less shit.
but i still think there's no chance they botch elder scrolls. they barely have to even do any work. just do skyrim again with a new map and everyone is in day 1.
