Yes, unfortunately a lot of big fictional worlds lack creativity. When it comes to making sapient species, Egyptian god -looking anthros are the most interesting thing they can produce.

To be honest, it's just easier for the devs when every character in the game can use the same equipment and animations

This is definitely true for computer games, and is also a major factor in television and film. But you also see it in illustration and literature where the only limit is one's own (apparently very limited) imagination.

Morrowind made the Argonians different and not able to wear boots before taking the easy way out in the next two games.

Don’t a lot of these games have asset duplication for male and female characters?
