Investors won't risk it on an original piece of work. Much safer bet to invest in an established brand.
So any writers with original ideas have to jam them into an existing IP to have any hope of getting it off the ground.
The end result is nobody gets what they want. The writer doesn't get to write their own true material, the original fans of the video game don't get an accurate story to their liking, and everyone else will be put off by their existing thoughts of the video game.
But this sounds exactly like a movie Blumhouse would make! That plot as described is like the one type of new IP that still can be made!
