Dwarf Fortress ruined modern gaming for me. I keep thinking "Why do they keep making new games when they could just make the old ones bigger and better?"

People love it when their games evolve over time. A new, small feature every week will keep people feeling refreshed and invested in the game.

Arenanet seems to be trying this with Guild Wars 2. Not sure about how well it is working out though.
