Large gaming companies, like a lot of other big companies, are extremely risk adverse. Instead of creating new things, they innovate by buying companies that have done the hard work of innovating or creating new IP.
The creators and innovators in those acquired companies usually burn out from trying to work in a large, stifling corporate environment, and leave. So the large corporations are left with people who are not creators and innovators.
