Probably just the idea of "corporate cohesion" of an IP. They can't take risks anymore in this industry, so, vaguely similar generic design for the title is the go-to for these companies.

Same reason the modern RE UI's are dogshit.
RE2R beta had the menu on the left with a 90's tablet which would be cool but instead they went with the soulless modern minimalism bullshit on the right for the final release and kept it for all the remakes from that point.

Brand recognition. You're supposed to be able to tell what kind of game it is just by glancing at the title.
Boring, but profitable.

>>733749730
on the left you have individual art made by creative people trying to make game boxes stand out on a shelf and on the right you have homogenized corposlop logos looking for maximum market recognition

>>733751936
Similar idea, except this time it's because most of those are cheap AA budgets and they didn't bother with the graphic design on the logos. DioField Chronicle and Various Daylife were probably made on shoestring budgets (and it shows) so of course they aren't going to concern themselves too much with the title logo. They probably weren't even expecting 10k sales from them. Bravely Default and Octopath Traveler were probably in a similar situation, where they didn't think they would even get popular past a small niche.

I was always jealous of this cover in NA we just got Leon in a red or blue background with a few enemies standing behind him
>>
>>733751970
Even that had at least some style with the fonts and boarders, fitting the game. This shit now is just as plain as possible to be used in as many games as possible without having to change anything.

They are all the same franchise.

The difference between trying to sell a game, and trying to sell a franchise, is that when trying to sell a game, you market the game and highlight how it is unique and what people can be interested in to play the game. When trying to sell a franchise, you market that the game is the "next in the best selling franchise" and attempt to sell it as just more of the same, for the fans of the last game. RE2, RE3, and RE4 are pretty different games, and were originally marketed towards just selling the new game. But now Resident Evil is a big franchise, and the goal is to just sell new titles with the established RE title on the front cover to convince people to buy them. No telling people that RE3 has tank controls or RE4 lets you shoot weapons out of people's hands or RE2 has different character routes for different outcomes. It's all Resident Evil, from the producers of Resident Evil 8, so buy more if you liked RE8.

>>733749730
You want serious answer? Modern logos exist to be used in digital platforms, where they need to be scaled down and up to any size depending on where they are used. Simple logos scale down well but complicated ones don't, that's why all logos in the last decade are soulless shit.
>>
>>733761158
this and also it helps with brand awareness for retards such as every single video game buying anon or normie on the planet. by and large consumers are pretty easily conditioned.
