We were not starved for RPGs between 2010 and 2012 (Alpha Protocol, Fallout 3, Fallout: New Vegas, The Witcher 2, Mass Effect 2/3, DX:HR and more).
2013 was barebone because many games (DAI, Wasteland 2, Divinity Original Sin, etc) were delayed to 2014 which means 2014 would have been very empty because a lot of 2014 games were delayed to 2015…
2006 was a packed year for RPGs (more than 2005): Oblivion, Neverwinter Night 2, Titan Quest, Gothic III, Dark Messiah of Might and Magic, Two Worlds, couple of expansions and many console classics (Valkyria Profile, Ys, Disgaea, Monster Hunter sequels/ports to PS2 among many more).
The only thing that changed since 2012-2013 is that party-based, turn-based and isometric are coming back as game features…in Kickstarted games.
