I think this is an accurate reading. I just want to add that in my personal experience, it's also easy to fall out of a fanbase due to the game having too much complexity thus making it too hard to achieve balance between competing mechanics. A case in point is League of Legends which has to nerf and buff their characters constantly and is always adding new characters which in turn spawn new imbalances, these changes can be too fast for the casual follower to understand the games as time pass by.

This is one of the places Rocket League truly shines. The only changes in the meta happen slowly, organically, and (almost) exclusively at the very high end. Low skill floor, crazy high skill ceiling, no randomness, no pay-to-win, short matches, and ELO-based matchmaking is the recipe for the perfect competitive sport replacement.
