That’s easier said and done with movies and tv where the enjoyment isn’t dependent on player base. For multiplayer games at a certain point you have often have to move to the newer versions.
It is not as if people keep rewatching the same old movies twenty times a week. The problem with gaming is that some players seem incapable of even considering trying something new that isn’t part of the same series.
Yes they do, I’ve rewatched seasons 2-9 of the Simpsons about 25+ times, I’ve watched it’s always sunny a similar amount, my dad has seen the movie Independence day about 300 times. Both of us play the same sport, which we’ve played most of our lives.
