It genuinely feels like the notion of a pure triple AAA RPG is slowly being torn down by publishers chasing the wide audience of action game fans who will ultimately not care that much for the end product.

Yep. Just look at Bioware. BG3 would have been theirs if they didn't go the action game route. In the past they made BG and SWTOR, but then they made DA: Origins (not an action game, but moving that direction) and then Mass Effect. At that point they never went back from that direction. They've been successful most of the time, but I feel it can only last so long, because it isn't really made for anyone anymore. I think we can see that now.
