If you ask him why he is still playing "old-fashioned" things! He laughed at himself, "I don't want to bother researching new things." Of course, I don't believe it, because these middle-aged men at work learn new things very quickly.
So they said seriously: I just think the old game is fun, classic. The CG of the current game is indeed powerful, but in addition to being beautiful, delicate, and realistic, the playability is not high.

Of course, if you take "gameplay" as the measure, there are also good games now, such as Factorio, billions of zombies, seven-day killing, corrosion, ark, etc. Because they are player-oriented and focused on entertainment, not wallet-oriented.
