      It’s not the already released games they’re excited about. It’s the IP ownership. Why create something new when you can recycle old ideas for cheaper?

      Maybe I’m a bit of a luddite but many of those “outdated” games have far better gameplay and stories than games today.

          Yes, good games exist today, that doesn’t mean lots of games aren’t also terrible live service cash grabs.

            So, just like older games?

            I’m interested in this period of time where all video games were good and no greed was involved.

              Please highlight where I said all video games were good at a period of time.

                You said that modern games were terrible cash grabs, which it’s different from how games “used to be”. So I’m interested in which period of time “used to be” actually encompasses.

                  I said:

                  You seem intent on putting words in my mouth.
