Funny you bring that up, as I avoided expounding too much.
It will sound terribly xenophobic, but I also avoid JRPGs and interactive novels for the most part. I played a few back in the nes/SNES era but found them all to be kind of copy/paste jobs. It could also be that I find turn based combat boring. I'm sure there are plenty of good ones out there, but I don't really have the time.
I'm somewhat of a Luddite and enjoy low res pixel graphics, or hand drawn painterly stuff (think Disco Elysium).
I also mostly play puzzle/mystery oriented stuff. Old school style point and clicks, Myst-likes.
