Some games maybe intresting for some and be boring for others it depends on the player/ user
But if a new game has to be popular and run well for a long time then it has to be new like a fresh game which is not already there in market
If it has to run for a short time then even the boring games can be a hit if it has a lot of hype in the start of releasing even it is a flop game it can earn well by having a huge hype in start
