You're given a Star Citizen level budget (~300 million) - what kind of game would you make? (don't tell me your non-300m dream game)

Path finder style RPG meets Settlers/AoE meets Dragons Dogma.
You build your town in the view and/or style of Settlers. You get attacked. You have the option of fighting the attack using AoE style view and commands or warp on to the ground and you have a full action-RPG like Dragons Dogma.
Basically, Command and Conquer: Renegade (the FPS) set in an action RPG/dungeon crawling world.
Or Dragons Dogma 2.

The AC Game based in my dreamsetting, Austria and Bavaria between 1880s and 1914. Vienna, Salzburg, Munich, a mountainous region around Salzburg, a foresty region around Vienna and a lakes and hill style region around Munich, interconnecting rivers, roads, etc. Great focus on a Economy System with trade routes and maybe even a micromanagement game within a game (think motherbase in MGS, or much more elaborate system from the homestead in AC3), rest just not too fancy more kind of "old AC formula" style gameplay in the cities (at that time almost every famous landmark in those cities as they are known today is built) and a decent cast of celebs: Ludwig II. (his assasination may be a key plot point), Empress Sissi and her hubby, Bismarck, young Albert Einstein, maybe a Heir of Wagner, etc...

A mass effect open world but of the rockstar polish with attention to detail and scope unheard of. And you play as a detective. Its an open world dialogue sim.

The Matrix. With today’s tech all the action and effects can be executed nicely. Third person, single player with separate co op modes you and your pals fighting the machines whilst the single player concentrates more on the blue pill side of things. A dev like Rocksteady could pull this off well imo.
A Dead Space RPG. Character creation, choices, dialogue wheel, planet to planet exploration like Mass Effect. I’d hire John Carpenter to do the score.

Am i expected to make the money back? If so something safe, like an mmo survival battle royale openworld adventure gaas with a stylized but not too goofy presentation with pockets of single player alternate advancement avenues for your character resembling a campaign of sorts as well as full on sweaty streamable team-based and ffa content for esport cosumption. Fully licensed contemporary market focused soundtrack and celebrity endorsements via heavy social media ad campaigns, 3/4 of the budget will be devoted to this.. A modest injection of superficial wokeness, enough to placate the blue check mark brigade but insignificant and shallow enough to not agitate my bread and butter demographic via a diverse cast of 100 playable characters with a wide binary range of personal expressions along with realistic chest and posterior physics (on atleast 2/3 of the cast), conveniently obtainable via a generous gacha system, none of that 0.6 percent chance bullshit here but rather a hefty 0.825. Unity engine will be pushed harder than any other game or project would ever dare. Cross-play with mobile versions, one time purchase, optional monthly subscription or monthly premium subscription.

It’s not that hard to look at what they’ve produced so far and go hmmm this looks like utter crap given the time and money spent. I was a bit harsh with the 90% figure but obviously the game looks like under $50M was used on it compared to other $50M games.
No Mans Sky was said to cost $10M. Imagine what they could have done with another $40M.

1 million on a 2d pixel game, 299 million in "marketing"...

I'd make a stick figure game about throwing 8 influencers into a space station and watching 2 of them kill the rest. Small budget, free marketing, very large profit and free time for my own personal hobby Metroidvania VR

Mine would be a multi-genre, tiered gaming infrastructure title.
At its largest level it would be a civiliazation/simcity sort of nation building game. At its second level it would be like an rts/risk sort of strategy game. However, that would essentially be a game unto itself played by other people than those doing the nation building. The nation builder portion would influence the terrain, resources, etc. but all the actual wartime decision making would be up to the strategy game players.
On the next level you would have an fps game similar to battlefront/call of duty where each soldier being commanded by the strategy portion users would attempt to fulfill the orders and missions given.
Each portion would have an effect on each other but would still be a totally complete experience that would have entirely separate playerbases.
And it wouldnt end there. You could have a Trauma Center style game for treating troops,etc., a Death Stranding delivery type game for moving resources or a splinter cell-styled stealth game for more covert operations.
Obviously you do could do all sorts of other genre titles too but seeing the macro/micro aspects of Nation building and war gameplay cooperation seems like the real priority.

You sound like a professional financial analyst. I take everything back then. May I ask what you do in real life?

I’d fund Dirt Rally 3.0, global illumination, seasons, full time of day, every possible kind of weather. Engaging campaign brimming with personality and character of the real legends, Sainz, McRae etc. Pvp stage rally.
Give it the budget it deserves.
