i miss when shooty games weren't about trying to project you into a weird jingoistic fantasy where you're Rambo From Rambo 3 and you're Shooting Realistic Name Brand Firearms at Thousands of Foreign Enemies Who Are Conveniently Not Thought Of As People.

i wish they were still about rocketjumping around in space and playing reverse tag with the quad damage, because that was a lot more fun and challenging to play and also didn't resemble anything a child (or gamer bro with a child's understanding of politics) would mistake for reality.

I still think there are a lot of decent shooters. Halo, Doom, and Overwatch (to an extent) are ones I've played recently that I think fit this.
