For me it's first person puzzle games. I can think of maybe a dozen off the top of my head that came out in the last decade. I especially enjoy when they're open world. The ability to just quit a puzzle that's stumped you and go try something else for a little bit is incredibly refreshing.

Games that are made for the sake of making the game insread of being made to squeeze as much retention and money out of you as possible

Now thats a style that is becoming increasingly rare

Just follow a YouTuber with similar tastes and play the indie games they play. AAA is creatively dead

Thank you but I trust youtubers opinions as much as a gaming "journalist" which is to say, not at all

Willing to paint an entire swath of people with a broad, negative brush
Unwilling to spend any effort finding media you might actually enjoy.

The problem might not be with the industry.
