Lol, they CANT make games good because then people will keep playing and won't buy the new thing because the old is too good.

Payday is a good example.

Then it's a development pacing issue and/or the new game not offering enough to make it worth it. Killing floor 1 is similar to 2 but 2 looks way better. 3 looks even better than 2 and trailer teases interesting fights ahead. If they released those back to back no one would buy.
