Post Rhythm Games, A Long-running Niche: A video essay?

So this has been on my mind for the past few weeks and I've always been genuinely curious as to why rhythm games have always been in obscurity for so long, compared to the more mainstream gaming genres such as MOBA, MMORPGs, FPS, etc.

I've received many answers throughout the years on different social medias and forums, but never got or heard of something that compiled all of those answers into one place. Therefore, the question of "Why is it up to this point has there still been no videos that discuss about this topic?" naturally popped up in my head. A video that answers or at least speculates why rhythm games don't emit as big an appeal to the general gaming populace in contrast to the more popular ones, maybe.

It is understandable if the main reason for this was just that nobody bothered to do it and that they're just lazy, lmao. I could also take some time out and make this project a reality, with enough research and support from the rhythm gaming community, of course. However, I'm also pretty busy with life now so it's not something within my reach yet.

What do you all think about this? Looking forward to hearing everyone's opinions.
