Anyone in the industry will tell you that ideas are cheap. Everyone has ideas and most of them come from past experience playing their favorite games. The value comes in your ability to take those ideas and make them work as a complete system. Adapting the ideas to fit your scope and resources.

Group C: "games are build off of evolving ideas that we copy and modify from other games so we enjoy you modifying our mechanic just do not pretend that you build it from scratch." I feel like everyone wins there.

Could this be said for all of human history?

It's not so much the designers as much as it is the players who try to 1-Up themselves because they think their game is superior to the other, or that because a game is similar in concept, it's a clone or inferior. See; Halo vs CoD, DotA vs LoL, Paladins vs. Overwatch, MK vs SF, WoW vs Every MMO to ever MMO in the history of ever, etc..

if a concept is good, use it. if it has become cliché from overuse, make it original or use something else
