I would like something halfway between Snowrunner and European Truck Simulator, with a well written single player RPG story mode where you get to help people by delivering stuff.

Or, something like Breath of the Wild only without fighting.

Or both.

I've been cooking up an idea for a smaller style MMO with as few NPCs as possible. It'd take a large skill tree in which you can't possibly put points into everything so people have to specialize and work together. NPCs might fill in jobs while a player is offline like taking sales at the store or unattended crafting but all quests and rewards come from other players. Something unavoidable is that I think there has to be an end or else people either 1) can branch out and become so skilled they don't need other people or 2) stagnate. So after X real world days, an apocalypse happens. Plague, dragon attack, aliens, zombies, blight, pirates, whatever. If you win, you can rebuild and get a benefit before your next go around. If you lose, you migrate to a new place (generate a new map) and try again.

A spiritual successor to the Black and White series, but VR. Who wouldn't want to pet your pet mammalian Kaiju before tossing a fireball at the nearest enemy town with a spell gesture just because you can? =D

A fighting game where you play an average Greek soldier on his way to becoming a hero.

It starts where you have to kill 5 enemies in a battle and you get promoted. Then you have to kill 10 etc.

You can upgrade your hero and the soldiers fighting under you. So you can choose to become a powerful lone hero or a hero and his men. If you don't kill enough of the enemy you don't advance. But if you go on a rampage and the battle is lost you also lose. Your performance influences the battle. So it might be that holding a bridge is more important than total kills for example.

My dream game has always been a game that combines the most impressive technologies with open ended gameplay. So like impressive modern graphics and; physics and; Red Faction-like destructible environments and; procedurally generated content. All wrapped in a good-enough gameplay package like an RPG or something.

I realize all these technologies come at great trade-offs, but the dream is a good balance.

It's mostly the destructible environments from Red Faction Guerilla that I'd want in other games.

That one futurama episode where bender is floating in space and he gets hit with a meteor and tiny life evolves on him and then they annihilate themselves with nukes

I want to play that game

There’s lots of god box games but they never get it right, they’re either civ builders or map sims, the tech advancement and interactions etc are just shadows of the mechanics they could have, and the best ones never let them get nukes and have nuclear wars >;(

Star Citizen! /s

I would love a game with a timeloop built into the discovery, combat, and storytelling mechanics, a la Deathloop and Prey: Mooncrash, but instead of a first person shooter about murder, make it an isometric heist game that doesn’t hold your hand. You gather clues and tips and tricks through each loop and through exploration, until you build a final plan of attack to end the loop.

Deathloop’s biggest flaw was not playing into the fact that it was, at its core, a puzzle game. The objective markers and notes kind of ruined the climax of the game for me. Absolutely incredible otherwise.

Come up with your own ideas EA.

Okay bear with me as I go on an unhinged rant about a game I've wanted for years but is very unlikely to happen. For this we need to go into the deep Elder Scrolls lore, which I am going to butcher mostly because my version is amusing to me and all ideas are canon.

Imagine a magic steampunk world completely alien from our own, none of this Skyrim nonsense but truly alien. A time traveling thousand foot tall Magical Murder Mech decides 'yolo I'm destroy the planet', and almost does too, until Some Demigod shows up in their own time traveling magical murder mech (this one isn't nearly as impressive though). They go fisticuffs with each other, a bunch of the planet is destroyed. Some normal people with hopes and dreams or whatever are like 'this blows' so they build a magical space ship. Not like a magical space rocket; I mean like a Sailboat on Steroids. They decide to fuck off to the moon because where else would you go. Anyway Some Demigod gets mangled by the other, better Magical Murder Mech who then follows the normal people with hopes and dreams or whatever to the moon, because that's the most obvious choice for them to escape to because where else would you go. They show up ready to fuck up the moon colony when Complete Rando walks up and back-sasses the time traveling Magical Murder Mech to death. He then wanders up to Guy In Charge and is like 'hey I want to fuck your daughter', but surprise! The daughter is actually an intersex pansexual enby, oh and also they're a god. So Complete Rando takes one look at that Gorgeous Deity (who is also maybe a lot a bit fascist but that's a different story) and is like hell yeah, with our libidos combined we can repopulate the planet together.

Now that we've got that out of the way, I want a game that takes place from the perspectives of multiple normal people with hopes and dreams or whatever. Different characters follow different sections of the story. So the first character you might be learning about the Magical Murder Mech that's running loose on the planet. You're trying to prepare, you catch glimpses of the thing while fleeing your home. Another character could be someone who is in the Sailboat on Steroids and trying to get by on limited supplies while looking for people you were separated from in the chaos. However many characters there ends up being though, it would be crucial that the last scene in this game is watching Complete Rando suck face with Gorgeous Deity because I also want a game that tilts phobes.

I want a simulator game like lawnmower simulator, power washing simulator, euro truck simulator, and other games like that, where you plow snow from an area. Seems like it could be fun.

I like plowing real snow but that is fucking exhausting, cold, and can't be done year around.

I have no idea if it would be fun or not but maybe.

There is a game under development that's kinda like the one I want but it's very pre alpha at the moment and I want more areas and less roads. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1536910/Snow_Plow/

A good mmofps, PlanetSide 2 used to fill that itch, but it has morphed into something unrecognizable.

1. I'd like a PS1 level graphics elden ring (soulslike but open world) so it could be playable in a web-browser. Hopefully, playable via keyboard only. I'd also wish it were slightly easier so it could be played casually.

2. Subspace Emissary sequel. The key aspects are the physics/knockback based combat, multiple characters with drastically different play styles but keep the core smash mechanics (walk, run, roll, jump, shield, parry, grab, directional attacks, special attacks) but have the world navigation be like a metroidvania.

SSX 3 Remastered

Parking lot designer. Get hired to design a lot for some kind of business or entity (park, etc) and see how it plays out. Drive thrus, parking garages, stadium events, apartment lots, etc. Basically a city simulator focused on parking.

Space Engineers but not a buggy mess with player scripting that isn’t in C# of all things.

I want a pokemon RPG game. Give me a type- specific skill tree that I as a trainer can earn xp and level up. Fire moves deal +10% dmg, burn chance up +5%, water moves deal -10% dmg, etc. Maybe some general ones too like catch chance +5%, wild pokemon encounters -10% (or +10%), money earned +10%, etc.

So many trainers seem to be focused on one or two specific types, why not encourage the player to do the same? Allow players to re-spec with the professor if they want to change things up.

So tired of the same gameplay just being given a new coat of paint.

No Man's Sky but with the combat of Everspace 2, the economy of Endless Sky, the base defense of 7 Days to Die and fully developed factions and species.

Stellaris but with first person aspects.

A cooperative multiplayer shooter, but one player sees everything from above and delegates everyone else. Like in a RTS.

Give me RCT2 or Zoo Tycoon, mixed with Hitman against any random visitor, and you have to build the park around decent ways to stay hidden and the like

I miss having a hero I can directly control in an RTS game. Rise and fall civilizations at war was the closest there was, but it won't even run on windows anymore

Seriously, how has there not been a survival RPG Battle Royale in the style of the Hunger Games?

Create a character with certain traits and skills using the same number of allotted points that everyone gets, then survive for 30 minutes to win.

Could be a bow hunter or a nature specialist, a sword fighter or a trap-maker. You could be strong, tall or fast and small with the ability to climb trees or swim better. How has this not been made yet?

An open world Transformers game

VR biplane combat sim, with heavy emphasis on your plane as a location and an object. A massive but oddly fragile thing you can walk around, on the grass, for a real sense of scale. The prop-shaft is eye-level and there's another four feet of plane above that. It's this massive ungainly thing you have to climb onto, and then into, before convincing it to leave the ground. All so you can push it to the edges of its capabilities versus other google-wearing maniacs doing much the same.

The interwar period is just about ideal for the physicality of air combat. Speeds are comprehensibly low, while still blasting past anyone stuck on the dirt. The machine has a manageable number of controls, all bracingly direct, and you can watch the wings flex from whatever you ask of them. If you need to see ahead while taking off, you lean over the side.

All of this is suitable for a sitting-and-standing VR experience. You probably don't have access to enough room for a proper walkaround. But you should readily develop enough of a feel to do proper barnstorming.

Victoria 2 except in space.

A terraforming game that is all about actual climate dynamics and trying to force random worlds into what ever shape possible.

Farming/homesteading colony sim with procgen plant species that you have to learn to cultivate. Models soil conditions and how they relate to nutritional profiles of the crops. For something that's such a integral part of survival i feel like a lot of games just handwave agriculture.

1. A God game/simulation game somewhere between Populous and Dwarf fortress where the behaviour is complex but the player doesn't have to do as much to keep things on the rails and the interactions are mostly just terrain manipulation and nudging. If you could build a rich, stable simulation that had simple rules, based on terrain, water, wind and weather and allowed the player to manipulate those things, i think it would be a really fun sandbox.

2. One of those 2D bridge builder games but the structures are in orbit, optionally patterned radially around an entire planet so you could build an orbital ring or other wacky megastructures.
