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.

Rhythm Games like Guitar Hero, Band Hero and DJ Hero. Those were fun.

There are still plenty of them: DJMAX, Muse Dash, Spin Rhythm, Hatsune Miku Project Diva, Beatmania. Also there are tons of them on mobile.

Music games that are based around a story, like Parappa the Rapper/Um Jammer Lammy, Gitaroo Man 🎵💖

Gitaroo Man is fantastic. We need more games where you can defeat enemies using the power of your rock.

Brutal Legend also, although not the same genre by a long shot.

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

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

The problem might not be with the industry.
