I'll bet it's because of chumps like those that game preservation is such a criminally low priority these days.
They can't possibly consider the idea that just because a franchise gets a new game doesn't mean it replaces the previous games.
Every game is different. The people I interacted with refused to understand that simple concept; not everything that was in the precious games will carry over to the new ones in the same way.
Even if they did, the context and structure in which the mechanics and content are used will be different from game to game.
Many modern pop culture consoomers cannot seem to think long term; they simply do not think about the possibility of deciding to play or watch an older work either for old time's sake, curiosity, or literally any other reason.
Only to have it not be accessible at all because it reached a BS expiration date.
What do you think some good solutions for changing this mindset are?
