They tend to be too busy or the directors tend to not like the voice actors. All kinds of things. Not necessarily, it's based on the union most of the time. Most voice actors are contractually obligated to only perform the voice work for one game as specified by their union unless there's guranteed sequels and the union allows the return fee for the voice actor to continue on the role, it's why sometimes you get voice actors using aliases if it's non-union work, because their union doesn't allow it, some voice actors like Yuri Lowenthal have it somewhat 'easier' as he's non-union to my knowledge.

Some voice actors as you said may be too busy to return for the role, it's very rare it's because the directors don't like the voice actors unless it was genuine conflict, which in itself isn't common as they're normally replaced with that thing. Like I said, "All kinds of things."
