Old and out of the loop gamer here - used to love FPS games but quit playing them when Counterstrike was new.
What's uh... what's going on? I keep seeing trailers for new FPS games that look like they're running the original Doom or Rise of the Triad engines. Somebody help me understand.
There's been a resurgence of retro throwback shooters. The first one I noticed was with STRAFE, which released (to a rocky start) back in 2017. It's a brilliant game now, mind you.
