We already talked about this in the other thread, but the boiling frog theory has actually never been realized in practice with established IPs. It's more like the frog is poked with a knife, then brutally stabbed over and over until it's an inchoate mass of viscera.
Star Wars had TFA, a billion dollar hat trick which people actually caught onto pretty quickly, then the Last Jedi destroyed the profitability of the franchise.
The Witcher had a mediocre-to-decent first season with butt ugly women, then went off a cliff.
The Last of Us was a masterpiece narrative due to the efforts of Bruce Straley. Neil Druckmann murdered the series with a golf club in the second game.
Tomb Raider 2013 was a decent reboot that made a big splash. Lots of players, fan discussion, fanart, etc. Rise of the Tomb Raider was recognized as middling, Shadow of the Tomb Raider came and went before anyone realized it was there.
Game of Thrones went very woke in the last two seasons, became a disaster of historic proportions, and ended the careers of its showrunners despite bringing in record viewership.
Moral of the story, these people are mentally deranged and can't help driving themselves off a cliff, much like the two lesbians who murder suicided their six adopted children.
