My favorite video game type is probably going to be racing games, because I am a huge car nut. Racing real cars gets very expensive very fast, so being able to play around with no large monetary risks is amazing. Also, with a lot of events still shut down due to covid, it's a great moral support to still be able to mess around within the hobby from the confines of home.
Outside of racing, I really like rouge lite games, with Risk of Rain 2 being my current favorite. There's something great about starting a round from the beginning and battling through as many stages as possible before being taken out. Some of the run-ending deaths are hilarious, like you couldn't come up with something better. Fell off the stage right into a baby hostile that does that final few HP? Too good.
To wrap up this comment, I almost feel like it would be impossible to not mention Minecraft. Love it or hate it, it has stood the test of time with almost unbeatable repeatability and new features to draw new and old players alike back into the game. I've been playing it on and off since the alpha releases, and I'll probably never be able to fully set it down.
