These days it's like rpgs and first person shooters just evolved into the same genre. The boomer shooter isn't dead, it just lives on as a game mechanic that plays a part in larger games. Remember that turn based shit in kotor? This was before putting first or third person combat in every game was normalized and it sucked. Imagine if Skyrim had turn based combat instead of direct control real-time combat, no one would still be playing it. I'd be willing to play a halo starfield like rpg maybe but they'd probably enshittify it too much so never mind.
