The problem with most of the games you mentioned, it's just different objectives or play styles and not entirely different genres. I wanted something more extreme, like for example imagine playing Monster Hunter but you chose a professional racer as your character, so the gameplay would be similar to the Need for Speed games and probably have little to no combat. With the player having the option to either go for a high acceleration build, a higher top speed with better boosts build or some other build designed around a specific vehicle they like.
Or a better example I just thought about, was that you chose a theme park owner. So the gameplay becomes that of Roller Coaster Tycoon and you use the money you earn from your parks to hire hunters, upgrade their equipment and send them out to hunt the monsters for you.
Also, I was mostly talking about single player games, that's why I said "character" and not "player".
