depends what kind of fun you're aiming for
for actual games, you want tight controls that give the player a lot of freedom but not too much. limits that make things interesting but not overbearing will go a long way
for RPGs/vn's, just good writing is enough, people almost never play these for the story
for gambling addicts, just put some anime tiddies

are you upset that they have more friends than you, or that they make retarded faces on social media?

I will never ever ever say Mario Odyssey isn't a brain dead game. 95% of the game is no challenge. But I don't think it's a bad game. It has a lot of personality and is really good at just letting you have fun with the physics engine without roadblocking you into a story sequence or something.
That said

>Liberal values
The fuck? Mario is pretty much the opposite of political. The moment Nintendo sees anything with their plumber boy becoming controversial, they deny it ever existed.

You don't. Fun is subjective. You just need to make a creative and original experience.
