Suggestion: New genres

Sticky issue for new genre suggestions

• Digital collectible card game

• Stealth

• FPS/TPS RPG?
• Strategy [Turn-based] RPG? (I think about this often not sure because "Tactical RPG" is already present but isn't particularly definitive)
• Open-world RPG? (Open-world exists for the adventure tree but not for RPGs [ example(s): Final Fantasy XV, KOTOR ])
• Horror-shooter? (Not sure about this one either because this splits horror into two categories: games like Fatal Frame and classic Resident Evil and games like Outlast which are purely horror games) - (Also, to be clear, I know I used a Ghost and Zombie theme as an example here, but horror isn't exclusive to these two themes[?])
• Basic card game (Like Uno)

Concerning Stealth. Is Infiltration (Puzzle subgenre) = Stealth ?

[ThisNekoGuy]

@FolioNov9m I personally wouldn't consider them the same

There are infiltration gamea that exclusively prioritize that style of stealth and inhibit or prohibit other methods of gameplay; in a way, it's more hardcore than just stealth games that give you stealth as an option

A great example would be Styx: Master of Shadows vs "newer" Splinter Cell games

Well SC is TPS in this way?

I mean, you could consider it that, but if it bothers you I could compare Styx to Hitman

Styx basically makes it impossible to proceed if discovered unless you escape but Hitman does make it possible to go loud even though that's not what the games try to reinforce

I didn't play Styx and don't know Styx game mechanics. Styx = Infiltration or what you try to say?
Anyway I asked about stealth before, but I don't want this more. because I realized how many things need to update, for modders too.

Also I asked for Card game like Gwent or Heartstone, but imo CGS just have no mechanic for F2P games like Cardgame or Battle Royal or MMORPG. Mb in CGS2 will be
