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.
Open world crime games. Grand Theft Auto popularized, if not defined it. But Rockstar has since become cucked and obsessed with nickel-and-diming everyone with GTA Online. And even if they weren't, there's been a tremendous time gap between GTAV and VI, which if you ask me, left plenty of room for another game to fill in the void and perhaps do things Rockstar doesn't have the guts to do now that they're so big and corporate. Unfortunately, nobody's stepped up. Saints Row was the only competitor, and not only was did they also have a huge gap of time between their sequels, but they got even more cucked. And they're gone too.
There's a golden opportunity for a new IP to rise in this genre, but unfortunately, I don't see anyone willing to even try.
