I was in a similar debate elsewhere and eventually the guy I was debating with just came out and said Half-Life 2 is "old" and "a slog to play through now."

It seems some people move on and never look back.

Their taste changes. It happens to all of us, just more or less drastically in certain genres. I can't stand racing games anymore, they're repetitive tripe and too often have terrible AI or poor multiplayer code. On the other hand I still like jRPGs despite all of their various flaws and issues.

Game design has changed peoples expectations a lot too. People aren't used to non-combat stuff anymore. Most games are guided experiences down a corridor with exposition cutscenes every 5 minutes. I'd also argue that the non-combat aspects of DNF aren't very rewarding and enjoyable but obviously that's subjective.
