soul > fun

Anyone can utilize skinner box principles to make a "fun" game, making a soulful game has proven to be a far more challenging ask

The issue is that nowadays, more than ever before, people want you to believe they're doing the former just for advertisement and clout while everyone knows they're doing the latter.
"Soul" comes from putting yourself into your work and creating something that pleases YOU first and foremost, NOT someone else. It is when people understand why YOU enjoy it and find similar enjoyment for themselves that they experience the "Soul" of the game.
