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.

Because you like the feel of a game. The gameplay, the atmosphere, the ambiance. I guess this is more for people who play games because of the literal gameplaying aspect. Not people who play because they want to watch cutscenes. For example i played FEAR maybe 50 times. Why ? Because of the gameplay. Because of how weapons feel to shoot, how the combat scenarios unfold, how the AI behaves. That i know how the story unfolds has negative importance or interest
