In 20th century many philosophical schools devoted themselves to criticizing metaphysics.
In many case the metaphysics mean philosophy itself.

Of course, philosophy has significance in the respect that it preserves and shows us the way of thinking that old time's people had.
But today sicence and culture are developed so much so that they need no more philosophy.
Do we believe philosopher's ambiguous theory more than sicientific well-examined knowledge?
No. Sicience has its own method to tell what is truth and what is not. And we rely on it.
Do we need philosopher's dogmatic theory when we do a cultural thing (for example, to make a TV show or create a web site)?
No. Our culture has its own way to create and develop itself. And we rely on it instead of consulting philosopher's arbitorary theory.
So we need no more new philosophy. If Deuleuze is a maker of a new philosophy, we need no more Deuleuze. If making new concepts it important, Deuleuze had to make his new concepts in the field of sicience or culture (people are wating new invention in this field), not in the philosophy.

It is interesting question why there are philosophers even today.
I think some people are attracted to philosophy because they are curious about this fact.
