There is very little originality outside the indie market.
Even new IP often lacks originality. Watch Dogs, for example.
When a game like Tomb Raider can be considered a failure by its publisher for only selling 3.5 million copies, you can see why games have to appeal to a very wide audience. And breadth of appeal isn't likely to result in a whole lot of original or unfamiliar gameplay.

When I think on it, I almost never play any sequels of games I've actually owned.
Can only think of GTA series (played all of them up to and including VC, nothing since), and Trine (which I play with my son). I suppose I played the SNES and GB Zeldas, if they count.
