I don't think Gears was ever meant to have a oscar worthy type of story. Game was a stunner in every way when it came out. Multiplayer is tons of fun , so they kept the recipe intact to this day. I don't think Gears ever had any type of verticality for its gameplay design. In the end, it would only have been a gimmick. The foundation is strong enough without it and it's why so many other 3rd person shooter been inspired by Gears.
Not every genre defining serie have to continue innovating. They did their job, now new IP's inspired by older stuff gonna push it forward. Like it always been.
