I thought it's common assumption that when a game series start showing decline, do something different. Else, keep doing what generates the most monies. Besides, a single company can't "kill" trends. Burnout comes from market saturation, from other participating companies. But when one attain genre monopoly, it just doesn't occur.
So what's the point he's trying to make here? I'm not sure I get it. He doesn't like that a publisher releases games in the series that vary it up every now and then? I think the cod devs are stuck between people who will always say "wow this is a copy of the previous games" and when they try to change something up the core fanbase gets angry because they don't like any change. Noone is obliged to buy every game in the franchise (especially if you're tired of it wtf), I've skipped a ton of cods that came out recently but I really enjoyed the blops 4 beta and how they handled things I had issues with (optimization, level design, movement, game modes, longer ttk, different healing system).
