What game genre would you like to see more entrants in?
This was something I started wondering about when I was reading a thread about Star Citizen, and about how space combat flight games were much less-common than they had been at one point, how fans of the genre were hungry for new entrants.
Looking at this list:

...there really were far more games in the genre being released in the late 1990s and early 2000s than there have been recently.
A similar sort of phenomenon occurred for World War II first-person shooters.

Back around the same time period, there was a glut of games in the genre, and they really have fallen off quite a bit.
Whether it's a genre like these two, that hasn't seen many new entrants recently, or a genre that just never grew as much as you'd like, what genre would you like to see more of?

Mech sim like the old Mechwarrior games. Not the new ones they are gatcha pay to win

Armored Core got a release in 2023 and seems to be good.
What about MechWarrior 5?
Not op. I saw the good reviews and so I thought I'd give it a try. I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but I am very bad at that game and die all the time. I looked up other negative reviews and some people seem to agree with me that I just need more armor or something. I don't understand all of the positive reviews and how difficult I find the game to be. I loved MW one and two and three, but I guess this one isn't for me anymore.
You... you do realize MW5 is single-player and definitely not a "gatcha game" right? And has a pretty robust modding scene? And has a clan-based sequel coming up in a new engine?
