I think most of what I'd like has already been made. But they are old, few and far between.

I'd really like a modern Freespace game.

I enjoyed how it made your keyboard into a functional cockpit and how you could customize your own and your squads fighters and loadout. And sending tactical info in the thick of battle.

All that junk. It was great. But the old games are showing their age.

I want a shooter-esque game crossed with MOBA stuff. Basically, I just want Monday Night Combat, Battleborn or Gigantic to come back.

Isn't this basically what Overwatch was in it's heydey?

I miss Monday Night Combat's vibe a lot

I like all those kind of chill "X Simulator" games, but I'd love to see a bunch of them all combined into one mega-game.

So like if there was a game where you could find parts and build a PC like PC Building Simulator, and also build a vehicle like Car Mechanic Simulator, you could cover huge areas like American/European Truck Simulator, grow crops like Farming Simulator, build a shelter like Construction Simulator, keep the place clean like Powerwash simulator and/or House Flipper and so on.

It'd actually be really good for a post-apocalyptic type of game I think, where you could scavenge all that stuff and build a base.

Animal Crossing with a super deep friendship system, where you play intricate minigames (like a full tennis sim) and go on adventures together.

Pacific Drive with the graphics from Sonst of the Forest

I’d happily take “fully co-op Elden Ring” (keep meaning to try the mod, tbf), and “Dwarf Fortress, but in 3D and you can play/explore/participate like Minecraft.

Quake that people actually play. Like look at the virality of Battle bits Remastered, the Battlefield with block characters so you can have like 200 people in the match. Games need to feel snappy and run on a lot of low tech machines, and developers are mostly never catering to that budget demographic. FPS games have a huge demand for this. The hundreds of thousands of nerds who can infodump about how incredible the Source engine feels is my proof. So yeah I think there is still a market for competitive movement game 2.0 - a team fortress 3, a titanfall 3, a quake / unreal tournament that runs well and allows community mapping. Like unironically last gens engines followed the wrong upgrade paths and there is still more performance to squeeze out (titanfall 2 using highly customized source and it looking like a AAA game rather than a source game as my proof)
