Ignoring the lack of updates if the game is buggy, games back then were also more focused on quality and make gamers replay the game with unlockable features based on skills, not money. I can't count the number of times I played Metal Gear Solid games over and over to unlock new features playing the hardest difficulty and with handicap features, and also to find Easter eggs. Speaking of Easter eggs, you'd lose a number of hours exploring every nook and cranny finding them!

But that's the thing, just because "the newest final fantasy" is bad, doesn't mean that today's games are bad, just final fantasy. Don't compare final fantasy 1 with 14, compare it with idk, octopath traveller or similar.

Don't compare old Metroid with new Metroid, compare it with hollow knight.

Etc etc
