Why do people replay single players games they've already played before? (alien.top)

I'm talking about those that play the same games 2 or more times. You already know how the game plays and you know how the story goes. Wouldn't you rather spend that time playing a new game? I've only got so much time to play and a I have huge backlog. I never found myself picking an game I've played already over a new one. I'd like to know your thoughts.

I will use Baldur’s Gate 3 as an example. I have done 4 playthroughs and am on the fifth. I have never approached combat the same each game because as I learn more and more there is a lot of “what if I did this?” Going on. Also, not really possible to do the entire game in one playthrough because there are a lot of companions and they have their own quests. Incredible replay value.
