My favorite genre is ARPG including games like GrimDawn, Titan quest, Diablo 2, Borderlands, The elderscrolls series, fallout series etc.
Another one is interactive sims like Deus ex, System shock and Bioshock but those games are awfuly relatively rare.
I do also like to play some fighting games but mostly labbing and local multiplayer.
Lately I’ve mostly just played old games, “b-tier” games or indie titles just because a lot of the moder triple-A games just feel soulless.
Games like Sacred 2, Outward, The incredible adventures of Van Helsing may have their flaws but they have some bold design choices and interesting mechanics that give these games soul of their own and make them more impactful than many games with 20-30 points higher metacritic score.
I don’t really care for online multiplayer games other than ones which I can play some good old co-op with 2-4 players (e.g Monster hunter).
I mostly ignore games with battle passes and loot boxes and a lot of modern games look like some sort of carnival with all the silly cosmetics breaking whatever little immersion they may have. I just recently started playing Doom eternal, the campaing is fine but seeing things like mancubus dressed as a hotdog and bunch of barbarian skins for the player I can somehow imagine what multiplayer is like.
