It's by design.
The guy who creates a game studio to make his own game understands everything about making it.
The AAA studio that buys them out kinda understands games but care more about profit than any individual IP, so the game suffers.
The giant corporation that buys the AAA studio doesn't give a fuck about games in general because it's a small slice of a giant pie. They use the CEO position there as a training spot for executives that don't understand anything about games.
It applies to any industry, but no one can out bid the giant corporations and they have to keep buying stuff up to maintain profit increases.
Eventually they'll cannabilze everything till there's 2-3 options then eventually just one.
