So is it shit like og DOOM or is it shit with explosions. Or both?

[–] A_Very_Big_Fan 1 points 11 months ago

It's more like Quake than DOOM in terms of shooter mechanics (but the levels are very similar to both). They usually have rocket-jumping/bunnyhopping and stuff. IMO, the high skill-cieling movement and/or combat is integral to living up to the OG boomer shooters like Quake and Unreal

Watch civvie11 on youtube. He kinda specializes in boomer shooters and slav jank.

Now if they could do something about games falsely tagged as immersive sim... no, F1 23 is not an immersive sim. It is a sim that is immersive, yes.

How long until someone re-skins boomers onto a shooter?

That kinda sounds like something s serial killer would do...Ed Gein...

Yes it's annoying because realistically they should be called millenial shooters or something, but "boomer shooter" is somewhat alliterative so I get it

Does that make 1999 a boomer shooter year? Because Q3A vs UT was one of the great joys of this GenXers early 20’s…
