I wish they would make a RPG you could actually fail at

Yeah I know it would be hated and probably tank in sales. But there are at least a dozen of us that would like it.

So in short, you want RPGs to be like they were until the mid-90's. Some later games do this too, but such so-called walking dead situations are generally considered bad game design, so most of the time it's more an oversight than something they wanted to include at that point.

Just have a look at the games that the CRPG Addict tested, there are tons of them that fit your criteria from the 80's and early 90's.

Yeah, as already mentioned there have existed such games, so if OP wants to, they can play them.
If you won't play those games, how can anybody take this topic seriously? They want to ignore the relevant history,
while asking for a niche game that 12 people will like. What is the point? If you have 12 millionaries buddies then go ahead
and fund your niche game of choice. Otherwise, how is this productive? Not just for everybody else, but for the OP themselves?
