The market is flooded with good looking games that are not fun. Consider the fact that big budget games spend a majority of their budget on graphics, and are conservative in gameplay, because it is a risk to do anything else otherwise. See also: the film industry[1]. If you want to play games that are fun, look for games with graphics that are less than AAA quality. Smaller studios focus on what they want to build, at the risk of bankruptcy. This is the exact type of game engine you should be keeping an eye on, because small studios and independent developers don't all pick Unreal. They aren't spending their time building PBR-workflow assets because they take exponentially more time to build than the traditional 3D and 2D art workflows of yesteryear. It is a project management objective to trade those things off, so one can ship a game. There's a reason why games like Minecraft and Factorio have overwhelming mass market appeal. And Factorio actually has AAA level 2D graphics, but most kids wouldn't recognize that. There are more games than ever, and in addition, there are now games that are several years old which never stopped being fun.
