There’s an Aztec city building game called Tlatoani. It’s in early access, but has enough meat on the bone that it’s one of my goto games.
Out of curiosity I checked Steam DB for active player numbers. I have discovered at any given point I am 10% to 25% of the given player base BY MYSELF. I am 1 of 4 people playing this game right now in the world. With the prevalence of the internet I always assume whatever weird bullshit you’re into there’s at least a thousand people talking about it; making memes outsiders could never comprehend. It’s actually novel to fly under the radar for once.
What do you do that doesn’t have a community associated with it?
Blind Guardian was in an older PC action RPG Sacred 2. There was a whole quest to find their lost “weapons” (wand was a microphone, axe was a guitar, etc) and then there was a full in game video of them playing in front of orcs. I am not a particular fan of theirs, but it was so awesome.
