That’s because Ubisoft have been making the same game with a different coat of paint since at least Far Cry 3

Yep. That's the issue. They're far too comfortable to make anything interesting. People need to stop buying their games if they want them to make good games.

Ubisoft is doing some nice things in VR space. Eagle Flight is a delightful game, Star Trek: Bridge Crew is a dream come true in many ways and while technically the appeal of Assassin's Creed: Nexus is that it feels like an old game with new paint, it's a LOT of paint in that case. It's not all bad.
