That's not an entitlement to gamers that's just how markets work
This exact principle applies to movies and books, there's a reason the bargain bin exists, and something being digital download just means it's taking up space and traffic on content servers
Honestly it makes even more sense for games given the rate of technological advancement in the industry. There's little to no difference between reading a book printed in 1985 and one printed in 2012, but compare Super Mario Bros. for the NES to New Super Mario Bros. U and it's a whole different ball game.
Games like Factorio that don't strive for the cutting edge and could have been made and played in line 2008 are a little different, and as a whole the differences between games generationally are shrinking due to diminishing returns as graphics and mechanics improve, but I think the rule still stands for the most part.
