Did you read the article? The point here is that nowadays games in general, especially AAA games, takes very long to develop. In my opinion one reason for that is that games have became way too big, usually at the expense of gameplay. Of course there is some series like NBA 2K and CoD that keeps releasing a “new” game every year. However we all know that for many years they have repeated themselves a lot. New releases should be just patches that updates the roster or something like that.
