If you could wish a game into existence right now what would it be?
Native American game where you can invoke spirits and kill colonizers.
Boba Fett or another bounty hunter game.
Need more indigenous peoples based games. Vikings, samurai, knights and ninjas are overdone
It’s called “Spirit Island” and it’s real good. Can prolly pick up a copy for fifty bucks.

Prey 2006 … kinda
I’d love a game filled with quests and cities like an Elder Scrolls game, but with a Science Fantasy setting like Mass Effect or Star Wars.
Starfie… Never mind. That sounds like a cool concept!

Fable but done as a roguelite and when you die you play as the next generation with realistic genetic inheritance.
That or a sequel to Fall from Heaven ][. IYKYK.
An indie game that is so overwhelmingly successful, that they can somehow cause irreparable harm to EA.
Plus decent DLC at a reasonable price.
EA seems to do pretty good harm to itself anymore. I remember in the 90s when they were one of the good companies.

They singlehandedly ruined my capacity to enjoy video games.
Hence my lifetime boycott of anything they sell.
Hopefully you find some delightful Indy games to change that for you.
And unfortunately they have the only license for F1 games so they still get some of my money. I hope they lose the exclusive license soon…
They’re a blight.
Not the company I loath most, but they’re top 20 I’m sure. Not that I’ve written out and ranked a list or anything.
Mass Effect 4. I don’t care if Shepard somehow returns or grunt is not a romance option, just don’t let effin Andromeda be the last ME game.
Crystalis Remastered. Basically the same game, but with 3D action/combat controls and aesthetically faithful visual. The game itself is basically the Perfect Game™, but lends itself to modern day third-person slashing combat.
So, take the graphics and horse riding from Red Dead Redemption 2. Take the procedurally generated world, basic crafting, and sailing of Valheim. No human or monstrous mobs. Include wild animals who act like wild animals, slightly territorial bears and wolves, but not over the top. Allow animals to be tamed. Require some nourishment, but like Valhein don’t have risk of starvation.
Then have it play out as a non-lethal survival/building game with wild animals, non-hostile humans, and spend the majority of time getting lumber and materials to build stuff like towns and encampment. Let weather conditions and terrain be the main challenge! Have seasons.
Basically a wilderness survival game that doesn’t involve actively hostile enemies that you need to fight.
Survival horror that takes place in Stephen King’s Maine. There is the opportunity to run into many, many of his evil incarnate characters. Could be done like Bioshock, where your character is an escapee from The Shop and has access to telekinesis, pyrokinesis, etc. Escape from The Shop finds you in Derry, ME where you’ll encounter what it has to offer, with quests to Castle Rock and Salem’s Lot. There could be a Needful Things store for trading (what are you willing to trade?), portals to other realms (thankee, sai!), opportunities for team ups or chaperone missions with known inhabitants of the locale… and the scares! Could be the kind of game that has a variety of endings based on your choices, Fable-esque outcomes dependent upon what you trade at the store. I’d buy it!
Stoned Ape Theory - a prehistoric survival game where you discover psychedelics/entheogens and when you take them the world comes alive with technicolor fractals and mystical beings; doing quests in the psychedelic world then teaches you skill trees to evolve in the base survival game.
A main series Puyo Puyo game, along the lines of the best games that never got released outside of Japan (15th, 20th, Chronicle), on all major platforms, with crossplay.
In other words, the exact opposite of what Sega is currently doing to the franchise.
I’m not a die hard Puyo fan,but I’ve played the odd one from nearly each generation, and I still go back to Dr Robotnik’s Mean Bean Machine.
Absolute classic, only surpassed by it’s own soundtrack, a banger in itself.
Puyo 1 is the Street Fighter 1 of puzzle games. First player to make a 5 chain wins, that’s it that’s the entire meta.
TBH, it’s honestly a little sad to me that that’s the version western audiences know. Tsu’s offset mechanic is what made it into the greatest competitive puzzle game ever made, but that was never released here, so people don’t even know what they’ve been missing.

Yes! I bought episode 1 of FF7 remake and ditched it because of all the bullshit they added.
An open world game like vice city or cyberpunk, but where you can enter any store or domicile and they each have variation in decor, npcs, the occasional fight (home intruder!) or side quest
Edit: another one would be a non-marvel, non-DC superhero game. Ideally along the lines of skyrim, elden ring or cyberpunk
I know this post is almost 2 weeks old and I don’t know whether this would be considered necroposting.
I would absolutely LOVE a game that is essentially a spiritual successor to the Sonic Riders franchise. I have an idea for that type of game but absolutely zero experience in game design and all that, though, so it’ll be a wish for as long as I can remember it.
Mario Kart: Double dash, either on the NS2O or a full on remake
Freaking Project G.G.
We were robbed of the tokusatsu trilogy. I hope Clovers works out and they let Kamiya buy the IP at some point, if he’s even still interested.
