Boomer Shooters

- Description
- A community about boomer shooters, a type of old-school FPS games before Half-Life revolutionized the genre. Boomer shooters have emphasis on shooting and sometimes traversing mechanics, are light or devoid of cutscenes, and the fun of making things go boom takes precedence over story. The name originates from a tongue in cheek description of the 2018 game Dusk and since stuck as a shorthand for the type of FPS. Rules: * Don't complain about the term boomer shooter. It's a fixed term. I did not make it up. * Half-Life is not a boomer shooter. * Hail Civvie11 * No racism, homophobia, etc. Lemmy.World rules apply.
