Can we ban the use of the term “boomer-shooter” please?
Too much cod/battlefield crap… People were sick of it and wanted to go back to the good old doom days.
Lots of indie titles did that, then doom 2016 propelled it into the mainstream again which gave the green light for even more games being made.
I love it! My favorite genre
Boom shooter, OG FPS, I don’t care what you call it. Just more please.
@woelkchen it would be nice if people stopped conflating Gen X with boomers because we want nothing to do with them. If it’s a joke, it’s not funny to me. We dislike boomers as much as every other generation after them. Nobody gives a shit about GenX, I get it, but could you please do us the favor of not conflating us with boomers?

I? I did not write the article. I just found it interesting and crossposted it here and I don’t care what others use as a shorthand for fast-paced, pixelated FPS games.
It’s silly to even bring generations into this or most topics, just another politically driven divider in order to down one group of people and boost another’s ego. In most scenario’s this is the case anyway, yeah silly and childish.
Wow, no mention of Prodeus
Lol, boomer shooter…wtf
“Admittedly, most boomer shooter fans are likely Gen-Xers and Millennials, but they’re still co-opting the term in a sarcastic but positive way that conveys the old-school nature of this niche genre.”
TLDR: Ignorant statement by ignorant generation. Maybe they could do better with JAVA.
Java programming language not even based on dem beans WTFolio?
