A) that’s not a criticism… Every game in any defined genre is “just another x”.
B) I still think HK is superlative among its peers in many ways.
C) Ori is fine but is a lot more one-note than many games in the genre. The story is very derivative and the main interesting gameplay element is the mechanical way the jump works. The second game I really disliked, but the first one is unobjectionable.
A lot of that same stuff could be said for a lot of other games. Even in the exact same genre (Ori and the Blind Forest?)
