Something like CS2 is different though, because it's a standard. People like it that way, they're used to playing it and they just want it modernized.

That's why we have AoE2, AoE2:HD and AoE2:Definitive, and also why after hundreds of years nobody decided to come up with Soccer 2: The Soccering. But we do make soccer balls out of polymers instead of animal bladders now.

Everyone likes new compelling ideas but also there's a space to continue support for older and popular ones.
