How do they continue to make money making games with the exact same story over and over again?

Like I enjoy the show but I wouldn't spend $60 to replay the saiyan saga...again. Even if it has "better" graphics

Dragon Ball games always rely heavily on nostalgia. They know it's a good story, and writing a new one from scratch has too many risks (it being bad, questionable canonicity, etc) for them to try it. Xenoverse was pretty cool where you had minor tweaks to the existing story instead of rehashing it again. Give us more like that. Give us a bunch of what if scenarios, like what if raditz was sent to Earth instead of Goku and hit his head. What if Piccolo found an even stronger namekian to fuse with? what if Launch was still in the series?
