A mix between a strategy game and a shooter. Where you can both move your armies around on a battle map and then when a regiment encounters an enemy, you can take control of one of your soldiers, ergo, the shooter phase of the game. Basically Mount and Blade on a Hearts of Iron map, but instead of just a single 100-200 man warband, you're controlling multiple divisions and able to lead them personally into battle.

Oooo, lets take this one a step further. A game set in the American civil war, where you have a grand strategy map like in Total War where you do unit building, resource allocation, etc, and then a battle map when you encounter enemies and you become a general on the field complete with a sword and revolver and have to fight/direct things. You can toggle between first person mode and a "gods eye view" when you need to make more strategic decisions. Can add in a multiplayer feature where your friends could become regiment or division commanders, or for random people to drop in either to help command your army, or the opposing one.

Breath of Fire 6. The mobile game doesn’t exist.

This one may happen.

It's been long rumored like the Wild Arms revamp since the rights have been renewed and kept up to date just like what happened with Dino Crisis. A very good chance that a new Breath of fire winds up using some of the systems from Capcom's Dragon's Dogma and Monster Hunter systems. It may not be turn based but it would still be an RPG and still resemble Breath of Fire
 
Sequels to old squaresoft games like Einhander and Dewprism. A real Chrono Trigger remake.
 
An assymetrical murder game where you are fleeing from Nazi death squads after they conquer a country. You play only as the people fleeing in terror as the AI represents a squad of well equipped nazis taking their sweet time taking you to the town squad to be executed Pianist style. The game plays like Dead by Daylight where you have to find things like supplies, travel documents and bribe money while fleeing the death squads looking to kill you and your friends.

I liked 2 ok but I would want a third game to be more in the vein of the first.

It sucks if that series is abandoned, it still has so much potential.

A followup to Shutokou Battle and SLAI. Genki only makes mobile games now though.

I played Phantom Crash on the Xbox in 2018 and sadly found it to be pretty dated, but the premise has loads of potential for modern tech.
 
A new 3D Medarots game. The designs aren't all that great but the charm is there. The new mobile game has rekindled the love I once had for the series but it hurts to experience it in gacha form. I just want Pokemon but with robots that I can interchange/color their parts and explore with.

I'll also take a new full-fledged Chibi-Robo game.

Not 100%, but that was Archon,

It was a chess type game, but when the two pieces met it switched to an arena mode where you could battle it out.

Don't play the second game though, it was trash

SLAI probably won't grip you then. It's got way more content and polish, but it's the same gameplay, now with a difficulty spike. I really enjoy that drop in/drop out arena "You can leave at any time but dying in the arena means pain" gameplay though.
 
A survival-horror game set in the Halo universe. Something along the lines of Cry of Fear, with more combat than Silent Hill/RE but with a civilian rather than military emphasis.
 
Some kind of turn-based or "idle" coop mmo game. A way to enjoy the triad of healer/tank/dps without to be on your toes. Some kind of social platform where you queue together and then just do your way through a dungeon, but complex/controllable enough for it to not just be a matter of min/maxing each spell.

No idea how it'd work, but generally I love the MMORPG triad in other games like Divinity or Pillars of Eternity, yet sucks to play alone in those games.
 
Reddit mod simulator. You have to sit at your battle station all day ready to drop da banhammer on any wrongthink. Minigames will include filling up your pissjugs, arguing with bitch mommy, fedora tipping to the waifu beats, and of course microwaving hot pockets.
 
Another one, a GOOD version of The Ooze.


It's such a fun idea; play as the Blob and kill things. But it's botched by (1) you don't kill people only bugs and robots and (2) insanely frustrating instant death puzzle-like transversing (since there's no real platforming).

This ACHES for a remake.
 
More first person dungeon crawlers on par with Etrian Odyssey 1-Untold without the Atlus shit.
Im still mad Fatlus USA (or anybody else) never localized Dungeon Travelers 2-2. DT2 was the best first person dungeon crawler I've played.
The genre has kinda died out with the Vita. There arent even any indieshit ones on the Switch (Labyrinth of Refrain is good, I have it on PS4). Things have moved to being top-down and I saw one game advertising it's lack of hard game mechanics. :roll:

Haven't been many SRPGs either, besides Fire Emblem but I just do not like those games.

Could also use a Grand Kingdom 2. With less one-sided online. I liked Magion the most of the countries but a huge majority of players just picked the blue one and it kind of killed the spirit of it after a few back-and-forths.

Yeah, JRPGs are kind of dead, unless you like (or only play) Square Enix JRPGs and besides the few from established series that havent gone completely away from what made JRPGs fun. JRPG turnout now is like a trickle. :feels: I wonder if the tide will ever turn back.
