For me, if I ever hear "card-based" or "soulslike" I have absolutely no desire to play a game, no matter how many people reccomend it.

I'm also not a huge fan of modern "roguelikes" but I've sunk days into nethack and games like that.

Survival crafting for sure. I like Minecraft well enough, but even there I prefer to just explore. I can't stand farming resources incessantly.

Turn based, card based, strategy,...

The more metroidvanias I've played the more I think I really only like Metroid. I don't even like Samus Returns or Dread, just Super Metroid, Zero Mission, Fusion, and AM2R.

Also, I usually do kind of power through it, but

'Meta-progression' - I very much do not like roguelite meta-progression, at least in most cases. Sometimes, the same game might feature multiple systems of meta-progression, some of which I tolerate, and other ones I just consider awful.
The clearest example of such a game would be Roboquest. The primary meta-progression is bad. It locks almost all decision-making behind upgrades that you need to grind to deal with. On the other hand, it also features some items that permanently unlock some utilities, like the grappling hook.

I will probably play it anyway, but a game based on dnd's rules is a big sigh from me. It's not a good rules system. It's even worse without a real DM. Bg3 was great, but like in spite of the base rules not because of them.

Not a fan of simulators.

Won't play anything with a subscription fee.

Don't care about mobas or battle royales. Most competitive games, really, don't care for.
