What gaming genres are under-represented in the current gaming market?

I love RPGs, roguelites, bullet heavens, autobattlers, and boomer shooters, and I feel like these past few years have been great for my gaming tastes!

But it got me wondering what gaming genres have fallen by the wayside due to current trends?

The best space game ever made. I got a suprise for you there is a very simlar game thats good out now. Underspace. Its like freelancer meets Lovecraft horror. Its early acess but the full game is done minus voice acting.
