This might come off as being a old gamer, but I feel like they've been saying this about AAA games since 2000s.

Sure, 90% of them will play it super safe. But there's always 1 AAA game that breaks the mold and suddenly, the AAA games will follow that. Or imitate whatever indie game is doing with a higher budget.

Sure, but look at the PS2 catalog, for example—way more weird games with relatively high production for the time.
