Gamers know that piracy and emulation will rescue lost games.

Yeah, if we want physical media we have to buy what is produced.

The majority of gamers do not care because the games being released today aren't worth saving. They are all symptoms of the same root cause. Quality went down immensely in the 2010s.

This has happened to other media, and it was inevitable that it would happen to games. What eras of movies or music do you think of when you consider those collections? Why would gaming be different?
