The biggest draw to all of the games is: "the old game, but not trash".

Dishonored 2, is a bit different.
Dishonored 2 is the last game, but more, and broken on PC.

You can only sell so much of the same product to the same consumer.
If you want to sell product; you need to have an exciting, enticing product.

Video games are not like the music or movie industries; video games require engagement from the users.
Games can become fatiguing in a way that movies, music and TV aren't.

Look at annual games like: Pokemon, CoD and Sports titles.
These games are very easy to consume; they are liquid fun, and therefore they sell millions.

But those are examples of games that don't have drastic re-inventions year-after-year, ye they still sell well.

Yes, because they are easy to consume.
The games offer a high rate of enjoyment per hour, and they require very little investment from the player to receive that enjoyment.
