Obviously we're all about stuff being non-woke here, but I think I'm right in identifying something of a sizeable niche for game genres that aren't normally explored in modern gaming anymore. If there are any they're either one title made in 2019 or something or they're woke as fuck which makes you realise just how shit the industry has been lately in simply getting stuff released.
My personal favourite genres in these categories as examples would be:
. Simulation games/City Builders
. RTS
. RPG/ARPGs
. Space Sim
What's remarkable is some of these aren't even all that difficult to code yet all I ever see for the most part are a never ending spam wave of woke walking simulators with context buttons. Extremely buggy early access survival city builders that never get finished, an occasional very woke RPG and then another neverending spam wave of hipster style 2D platformer games.
What are the sort of genres that you guys miss now I've explained my reasoning? I definitely miss proper simulation games the most with RTS' close behind. However I could go for a good RPG or space sim any day as long as it's not shit.
Intelligent stories, puzzles, problems, and scenarios. You know where the plot makes sense. Where you are allowed to shoot the villain in the face when he's down so he doesn't get back up for a second, somehow stronger, attack. A game where there are multiple solutions to problems not just put A into slot B. Just a bit of forcing people to use their brain instead of just point and click.
