A Conker/Golden Eye type game? DOOM-like? Farming Sim? Fighting Game similar to Smash? Open World RPG similar to older Bethesda games? RTS like StarCraft? Turn-Based like Final Fantasy or Expedition 33? Going mad for power in a 4X? Another genre entirely?

What genre would you all prefer to see have a game made first? I will basing it off of likes

I plan to make a game in each genre but for now figuring out which to do first is the goal. Have concepts, tools, experience, devs, etc ready to make anything the community wants

Edit:

Leaving this open for 2 more days. Whichever gets the most between the 2D Fighting and Turn-Based comments. They are both tied at 14 upvotes

I imagine a newer open source RPG Maker would make a lot of people happy, with or without tux branding.

EasyRPG seems to be what I'm talking about albeit focusing on being compatible with an older RPG Maker and not only inspired by, Godot and those are a whole other ballpark and require a lot more coding knowledge to get into imo.

Well, some of the other, even 3D don't need big programming skills, but other need it. It depends on your skills which is the best for you. Also not the same if there are only simple scripts or if needed a knowledge in C#, C++, Html5 and others.
