Hoplite maybe? It’s on mobile but is a lot of fun.

Was this game named by a Bojack Horseman character?
Embrace mobile gaming. Especially the classic Nintendo handhelds. I can rock my baby to sleep and play Pokémon Ruby on my GBA at the same time. Embrace RPGs and other games where reaction times don’t matter. If I’m sat in a chair with a sleeping child I can even play a game where reaction speed matters, like Tetris.
Get a flash cart so you don’t have to switch games or carry a library of carts with you. Keep it in your car for play if you’re out a lot. Oh, and get a decent modern screen mod so you can see the screen outside.
YouTube Music. Apple Music and Spotify are both technically better products, but YouTube Music is free with YouTube Premium and so I can save on a music subscription.
Before I made that call I had picked Spotify as it gave me access to a web player, and just worked better on my Google Home speakers.
I think most companies are actively against public suggestions. If they do something like what you suggest, they may be liable for paying you for that idea. But if they’re already working on something like your suggestion, and then you suggest it, then they either have to pay you for an idea they already had, or risk you taking them to court and having to spend time and lawyer money on proving they owe you nothing.
The only justification I’ve ever been able to think of is Pokémon. The idea is supposed to be that every Pokémon is unique but there’s actually only a limited set of variables to define each individual ‘mon. I can trade you a Zubat I just caught and it can be identical to one that I first caught in Fire Red twenty years ago and have traded through every game since.
If each Pokémon was truly unique and on the blockchain, it could be meaningful in ways they currently aren’t. There could be only one Coalossal that Wolfe Glick won the Player’s Cup with. He could trade it away for charity and someone would pay for it. I could trade Pokémon away and track them as they’re traded around the world.
It’d be cool. But it would not meaningfully make the game more fun. And it’s Nintendo so they’re never going to do blockchain. And that is the best pitch I can give you.
How about Pandora’s Star and Judas Unchained (it’s a two parter) by Peter F Hamilton? I remember having fun with that.
Whenever the RedLetterMedia guys talk Trek it’s a good time. It’s not their bread and butter though.
Portal and Portal 2 must be on this list. If you’ve never played then, you must. It is that simple.
There’s a lot of potential options. Gen V remakes are next on the main series remake list. Let’s Go and Legends were both sort-of-mainline-ish games that would be about right for a sequel. I’m betting there’s still more DLC for SV. And wasn’t there a rumour about another Detective Pikachu movie?
