DigitalOcean should offer purpose-built droplets for game servers with the following...

Hardware: High single-core performance CPUs (Intel Xeons or AMD EPYC), consistent clock speeds, and sufficient RAM for popular game engines (Unreal, Unity backends).

Networking: Built-in DDoS protection included by default—not as an add-on.

Pre-configured images: Ship with game server templates (Rust, Valheim, CS2, Minecraft) to reduce setup friction.

This addresses a real gap—DigitalOcean's current compute is fine for web apps but underperforms for latency-sensitive gaming workloads.
