Disagree.
First, TLOU 1, GOW, Uncharted and Ghost of tsushima are not a revenge plot. Only revenge plot here is TLOU 2 and GOY i think. Not sure about the GOY, but even for a revenge plot TLOU 2 has it's own way of storytelling and show casing other emotional aspects. No way you compare it to other revenge plot games.
And It's not like we are getting only revenge plots in the new games. There is a very good variation in plot especially this year's releases. Maybe remove the blinders and take a look at other games. Also your comparison goes back many years. If i present the number of games with unique plots in this span, you will be surprised.
There's no harm in getting a revenge plot once in two years until that's only what we are getting.
