This seems very selective. Shooters seem to take up a fairly small portion of released AAA games these days and it's easy to find AAA games that don't fit this at all. We all know about Zelda ToTK, Baldur's Gate III, Alan Wake II, Mario Bros. Wonder, Hi-fi Rush. All games that came out last year, are AAA games and take risks and don't fit what you criticize at all. We even had debates about Dave the Diver which is a game from a major studio, but kept getting falsely celebrated as a indy hit.
If anything the "boring shooters" like Cod and Medal of Honor are taking up less space these days. Fortnite might have started out as a shooter and is massive, but at this point it's hard to tell what it even is.
